Definitely not forty million, but a million viewers is plausible.
I myself don't watch OWL on chinese platforms
imagine thinking any korean would go to titans
iirc the grand finals this year had a 1.500.000 AMA average
Sounds reasonable
Anyway, whatever it is it's much much larger than NA and EU combined
yes, there's a reason why escharts doesn't use chinese numbers
they do use chinese numbers though
The esports events that get the most viewers is League right?
Blizzard does, because they have accsess to the official number
They get millions of viewers regularly or something
League, then CS:GO
then what would be after that?
dota
yeah but dota and cs are like far behind from league right?
maybe fortnitie is above csgo when they do host events
yeah
league is in a tier of its own
hah
i just looked it up, not sure if its true but loads of sources are saying that the LoL worlds 2019 had " more than 100 million viewers this year, marking another impressive milestone for the popular computer game that cements its place as the envy of the esports industry. "
unique viwers i think
100 million people and I'm willing to bet half of them are chinese

Other teams in the offseason: "Announcement soon!"
Us in the offseason: "Announcement: SoOn!"
@SoOn99 joins #BostonUp: https://t.co/XtFGwNKjgR https://t.co/ZTxP5iG75M
does this means Benbest to Boston?
guess they're not getting faith and valentine
hope he doesnt have a bad track too
whoa
They have stand1
dreamkazper stuff
wait a minute
Soon to Boston? Guess they got sniped for those WGS dps
SOON?
idk if anyone sent the link but

Follow Us on Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/o...
i think matches just started
2nd match
nvm
Dubai got 3-0d sadge
really hoping he's doing good tho
because from his past tweet and stuff he looked pretty boomed
owl broadcast using default crosshair causes me pain
Soon is a decent pickup for them honestly. It means they dont ever have to play Chex on tracer again
Boston still bad
its pretty good
faith is up in the air
why
YOO ITS TRUE
she wasn't on dorado or volk either
Soon in Boston? They gotta put him in the worst team eh
or rascal
will asking be in this overwatch season?
probably not
Noo
he has been kicking around contenders trials
Definitely not
hasn't been on a good contenders team in a bit
he is LFT trials/contenders
I want him in OWL
He'll probably never get owl
No team is signing a player known for retiring every other month and being toxic
it's happened before
to ball on consoles, and soldier cause of something to do with his skins
Didnt asking have a contract with one of the LA teams but it never went through
Ye
i play xbox, but idr ball removal. my ow did break for awhile so maybe that
boston be signing vets
what website do people use to make tier lists ?
Their was gonna be a trade in s2 of OWL
LAV:
KSF and Fate
Boston
Asking(from academy team) and fusions
but it never went through cause LAV pulled out last minute
just look up tier list maker on google.
im tyring to find this type https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/233904315247362048/787912398040072242/unknown.png
not my list btw
Power rankings maker, Overwatch League predictions & more
thank you
No fucking way
Boston just jumped me from somewhat on the hype train
To all in
I love soon

soon can't carry that trash fire
They've got myun and stand1 and im37 I believes
And a coach who isn't brain dead
They just need one more solid player and they have a real shot at top 6 or so imo
And who put valiant above toronto 

Funny too because last season they were like 5th overall

Tbh I have more faith in houston than paris
my favorite team > your favorite team

paris is gonna beat houston atleast a few times
even as a fan of houston, my faith in them is virtually none
they dropped muma and picked up happy
I call that a pretty big w
and talon tanks are not awful
just missing jecse 😦
shoulda kept him
probably wanted to play with em teammates right? wasn't he part of that?
I mean dallas literally signed element mystic
loll
like 5 players that all used to play together 
as far as paris goes I like neptuno and onigod, but ellivote? really? he was the best they could get?
sadge
ellivote op
Let's fucking goooo
SOOOOOOOON
I mean he isn't by any means a carry or anything but way more flexible than chex
also trust in Avalla
he has a linkzr tier widow on top of his tracer and other heroes, so I am big excite
I just love soon
linkzr tier lol
meanwhile other teams have ans, decay, happy, etc
no
pog imagine going from this to bottom feeding
imagine literally being known as the org that creates stars from a bunch of shitters and loses the best roster the league had seen up to that point
pog
before they lost everyone though, why did they sign fissure and ryujehong?
bumper seemed fine
there was a fucking team that had bumper and fissure
at the same time
that's just unfair
if they just treated the players well
also how far along is esca in his military service
I could totally see esca and jhong coming back as a duo
OT now is pretty much, "are you good at sig?"

when has sig not been meta man
he was only kind of not meta when hog ball was around for a tiny bit
OT is stacked rn tho
but then he got right back in there
tbh I think a lot of solid off tanks got cucked by having a weaker sigma than other heroes
like mcgravy dva is pogchamp, mcgravy sigma is midchamp
2020: "can you play trashe?"


true
ashe tracer has been meta for fucking ages
if not ashe tracer, then a variation of ashe or tracer and someone else
sp9rkle tracer
Bets on how dallas flops this season
my guess is the meta is perma double hitscan with it swapping around widow/cree/ashe mostly
Or the meta is just some hitscan/sombra/genji/doom with winston sig ana lucio
then they would pop off
Watching SK v US 2019, i really forgot how much hype crowds bring
It was so hype
The best part is the crowd just chanting "USA" over and over when they were beating SK and China
Now 3/6 of the team USA players are retired
and 2 of them said they wouldn't compete in OWWC again
2018 really takes the cake when Team UK flipped almost everyone's expectations going into the GOATs meta
Who is the last one?
Super?
Moth I have no idea what he said on doing OWWC in the future
I'm pretty sure super/space said they wouldn't
I think because it eats up a lot of their off season time
So they would go from OWL--> OWWC practice and shenanigans---> small break---> starting back up for owl
UK vs SK was so good
Does anyone actually know if u switch from xbox to pc u can use the same account or do u have to make a different account
diff
Ok thanks cause im gm 4.3k. Time to grind 🔥
Join us in welcoming @Yang1_ow to the Toronto Defiant coaching team as our new Assistant Coach! 🙌 #RiseTogether https://t.co/376yLEmJLB
Wtf boston.
The only nervous thing I think about is im37 not being good enough since soon is just a little above average in dps
I was hoping they would get faith or valentine so that they would have solid talent there and not just a mid performer and untested contenders guy and dogshit flex
but I love soon so I can't complain too much
just wish im37 potential was easier to gauge
I have faith in punk at least
I think fusions is the weaker of the s3 tankline
his dva against houston was solid
I mean obviously there are better options out there but for what he is, he isn't the worst on the team
that is either fusions or chex
but I lowkey think fusions
chex on a different team might be interesting to watch tbh
see if he is ass
lowkey hope titans win their first match and shock everyone
honestly I see so much potential since he finishes high af on ladder and has gm level on several heroes he just needs that like edge that gets him above the others
but he doesn't have one
so he just stays bottom like dalton
Does anyone know of there is a way to play ow keyboard and mouse on console without a special adapter
You need an adapter
LOL
Step 1: Swap to PC
Step 2: there is no step 2
Step 3: Chex is gonna be able to specialize and play well HOPEFULLY under a good coach
Faith was rumored to boston i think
Valentine I dont know
But I’d be surprised if they didn’t get signed
faith and valentine were rumored together
Just get a pc
Also why in this channel
Cause i can play other games on keyboard and mouse on xbox series x and i was wondering since im a going to switch to pc on xmas i wanted to ask to esport community on ow to see there knowledge
Yeah im gm 4379
Gotta flex the SR to no one that cares
hello
Allo
Rip
I want admin just to delete this
I mean
Wouldn't hurt to have another tank player
GaeBullsi or MekO could be very good
Especially if they sign valentine
bro is not a single team gonna pick him up
I'm pretty sure he's willing to take a minimum contract with how hopeless he's becoming
boston maybe?
Meko to valiant ez clap
Maybe
But they seem to believe in Adam
So probably not
Yall remember rosham
From S1 SHD
He played MT for them
I literally don't know anything about him other than that
He is the forgotten of the forgottens
I dont know of a single person today that would remotely remember his existence tbh
Roshan and the rest of the s1 dragons other than diya and undead were garbage (not counting mid-season additions)
Diya was good, and undead had his moments
Didn't undead beat his wife or something
Wait where is gamsu
Left for league of legends
Is there a western flex dps better then nero
super
^
until nero pops off and dominates
im still not hyped for him and i think he's gonna drag the shock down
they picked nero over someone like libero so he's got big shoes to fill
I think that danteh is better than Nero
Danteh is an S tier flex dps, and he really puts in the effort
Mek0 would be so much better than punk
stand1 meko soon valentine Faith myungbong
That sounds pretty good
I'd feel more confident in that squad than vancouver or even paris
Great FS in myungbong
Good OT in MekO
And a solid MT in stand1
yeah
that's a great starting 6 for boston standards
Meko to Seoul maybe
Halo already said it's quite likely toyou will get promoted to seoul
they are
Idk how is toyou's sig, but his dva looked really good when he was playing
but we got marve1 for sig so its all gud
A few good players going team less
sugarfree is now 2 years from OWL
Boston has alot of good players they could get because no one else will pick them up
Still LFT. I want get more opportunity thx for retweets ^^ https://t.co/2ZKysbf1Ro
149
622
someone sign this boi
Is he main support or flex
tbh you could make a pretty good team just made of scraps this season
You could yeah
also imagine going back in time and telling people that meko is gonna be a free agent and he's not getting picked up
mayb mayb
toronto
meko liked mixed roster, paris is alot of mixed europe talent?
but idk how meko feels about mixed rosters after outluls
michelle pretty good doe
also why does lhcloudy also type in his weird accent lmao https://twitter.com/LhCloudy/status/1338204708624863233
We löse eu gauntlet angry titans 2 stronk Was a verri enjoyable experience to scrim again and do offical gaaming Gegees
238
Benbest meko nene nicgoh luffy tobi
that team could stomp titans
Sounds like a good team of people who cant find teams
wait fuck nenne is also still lft
why are so many teams picking up weird players
but ignoring the more solid players
he's decent
would you rather have linkzr or nenne on widow
wait pine is also still lft
yeah nenne dragged nyxl down because for some reason libero was on widow duty and sbb on ashe duty
widow and ashe were nenne's heroes and he didnt even play them for some reason
He was
when they had libero
He rly wasnt bad
He played early on in the season and they won most of those matches
no they had haksal
and they had haksal
they have the exact same hero pool
haksal is just better whoru
so there was no reason to have all 3
Whoru mei was bad
they really forced haksal into the roster imo
Cough cough ta1yo ans glister
They did
but Haksal was so mechanically gifted it didnt matter
i still dont get why they played a projectile player on sombra over one of the hitscan players
sbb has a good sombra but they put him on ashe if i remember correctly
Because nene was bad
No he played tracer
if nenne actually did his job he would've been on ashe and sbb on sombra
they played sombra tracer dive
nenne just dragged down the dps, and hotba fucked the tankline
nyxl had everything they needed for succes
I don't think nene was ever on the level of someone like ans or carpe
only nyxl sniper who matched them was pine
pine when he was popping
nobody beats pine in the zone
but sometimes he's not
and that's just tragic
if pine comes back he could legit become the best ever widow
Tobi jjonack
facts facts
he never peaked mentally
if he manages to overcome his problems and grinds ow
he could become a fuckin monster
I dont think there is a spot in owl for pine unless something changes about his hero pool
Putting that out there
Pine can play all snipers and mcree
for example who was it
Pure aim specialists dont matter
And tracer
the one that reign signed
pine cant really
tracer
they need something else
like lip has a sombra
Pine tracer<
for example diem
diem is kinda like pine
and he couldnt find a place in owl
except back in dragons
Diem has sombra
nah im pretty sure diem just wanted to explore options
Exept now they have lip
i dont believe that diem had trouble finding a team tbh
either that or dragons had the best offer
couldn't find option better than dragons
Those "aim lords" from season 1 needed to find new characters
You would need 2 hitscan like in season 1 nyxl
yeah idk if a sniper is gonna be able to start alot
only one right now is ans
and that's because crusty knows how to utilize him well
ans sombra and mei sucks
let's be honest
Sombra was fine
Mei was ehhh
Ans sombra was good enough
idk why the WINSTON GOD jhong hasn't been signed yet
to not be a throw
You could make like 3 different teams full of good owl players that havent been signed
And they would be good
rascal pine pog
Fissure
bumper
we dont even know if fissure is lft
is bumper lft
Most teams have a decent mt
jekong
sanginar and jehong on support
Thats a pog team
Fucking Fissure Jjanu, fuck meko, Rascal, Pine, Jehong Sanguinar
I mean FS needs a backup but still
luffy
Nah
dding ot?
geguri is for sure not returning to owl
0 chance
with player like jjano and meko struggling to find teams
Will there be anymore teams joining owl
probabaly not rn because of covid
but if anyone wants to join owl
this is the perfect time
tons of talent for cheap
Theres so many good players not on a team
also flow3r is lft
2017
Then nyxl coaching killed him
it's gonna be weird in the new season
seeing sbb playing against jjonak
mano playing against sbb
anamo and jjonak not being on the same side
Hotba no team pog
Who would be jjonacks support partner
jhong
Jjonack zen jehong ana
nowadays its jjonak ana jehong ana
Is nyxl the only team without a full roster
toronto i think
Or London
sado beast tankline is gonna be interesting tbh
Beast will just be there to warm the bench
Beast was the 2nd worst mt last season
Maybey fusions
Fusions was bad
fusions wasnt the worst though
But that had more to do with him being boomed by being on boston
I think he peaks much higher than this
Fusions at the 2018 world cup though 👀
Fusions could be ok as a rein otp if they just let him focus on it
his monkey was ok too if I remember
i could argue OGE, shredlock, and roar being worse
roar was absolutely worse
his team did better without a main tank than they did with one
to be fair decay zarya was pretty cracked
r0ar<fusions
yeah that patch was interesting... to say the least
that patch needs to never happen again tbh
is rio still on guangzhou?
yeah
bruh
Owl talent is so good rn
Who was the name of the coach that had to fill and play brig for his contenders/ contenders trials. And despite him being plat they swept the series?
i remember that
Yea
But he was a coach
Sure brig carried him
But he probably knows alot about the game and how to use an easy hero to its fullest
Still impressive
I know I just wanted to see if anyone knew the his name/whatever team he played for cause I forgot
Idk
Wasnt it BH or something?
He knew the teams comm structures and would have monitored scrims, so he would of known how to play the comp, then there’s the fact that brig isn’t very mechanically demanding
nah bh had a player disconnect and they played 2 maps with 5 people
I don’t think it was BH
once the 6th player returned they reverse swept
Also by the way one of my buddies had his PS4 account hacked and because it was linked to his credit card, he lost $400, so watch out
I gotchu man dont worry I dont have a ps4 
hello welcome to #esports-discussion where we discuss esports
sp9rk1e is forever
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
What other good main supports are there
ex-OWL or in general
me
admiralraptr
when im not feeding i play a mean lucio
Jofi
Owl players
still me
has Coma said anything?
what if im viol2t in disguise
SUPERICH
Boink
ggs
Are bh in the gauntlet?
Ok
c9 good strategy
how can i get the bot for a server like the overwatch esports news
idk man
klinda want glads to sign Moose so they have a tank line of Muze and Moose
Was fury a DPS before he became tank?
I was watching Birdring's stream today and Fury won like 9 straight 1v1s in a row against him
nope
just built diff
he is a nut with mechanics tho
Fury made Birdring change his sens midway lol
he played pharah in owl once
wento from 400 to 1600
and still got destroyed like 3 more times
Scary how good the Koreans are lol
follow the channel
tbh thinking about the main support position there are only like 3 big names, ljg, moth, and fdgod
the rest are just like oh yeah they exist I guess
if I missed an obvious name don't burn me at the stake ok
Drue
Slime and tobi are just good
^
Middle of above average
I like Tobi on mercy
He isnt
literally just said above average
He isnt top 3 either
I feel like tobi has the best mercy after moth
probably
but then again
Hard to tell
he pulled out his glock way too late against viol2t
Thats the thing
It's hard to remember all the main supports
Moth Funnyastro and fdgod almost never make ugly point- hell even game-losing plays
Flex supports we have an insane amount of incredible players
Main support not so much
Yea
I haven't seen slime make a game losing play this season
Then again
He was sort of a free agent for the entire season
vancouver org lmao
Slime didn't play so much this season whereas Moth FunnyAstro and Fdgod all started consistently and looked good
if Slime played enough I reckon he could be top 3 but I didn't see enough of him to know
Forgive me for asking this but
plus you're fucked if you think I'm staying up till like 5am to watch apac games to watch Slime
Is gangnamjin flex or main
main
Where would you rate him?
uhhhh
Bad, below average, Average, above average, one of the best
about average to above average really
above average
I thought gangnamjim was a flex?
Gangnamjin*
unless he just played brig
No Kris was main
Kris played all main supports
I'm having a stroke
give me a minute big man
ohhh
yeah I'm thinking about Kris then
iDK?
iDK was a decent main support for spark
What if shock sign fl0w3r
6 dps?
Yes. For the overwatch 2 6 dps meta from ranked
i don't think any team needs flow3r rn
I think tbh the lack of stars in main support is just a result of a main support not being able to look good on a bad team tbh
Like boston last season plus moth would still be bottom tier
Like all the top tier main supports are on top tier teams while there are plenty of top tier players in other roles trapped in shit teams
Message too long didn't read

Opinions on best American Dps player? Danteh? Corey?
oh
Swedish
ummm prob not danteh bc he was pretty washed
Hmm, just thinking about how moth is the only American role star nowadays
Super?
Well and super
I think
Not right now
I mean he should be
I don't consider super a role star because smurf is better 
Hehe
But yeah I forget super since rein hasn't been relevant in ages
I think his leadership might play a part in their success but smurf choi can easily get by without him lolll
I thought space was pretty good
yeah he is but he's not role star
Ameng is also a fucking chad, but for some reason not a role star
neither is super
The system is obviously flawed
hes legit a orisa and ball 2 trick in owl
Yeah remember when he beat shock single handedly
Still hate the fact chengdu beat london last playoffs 
i think back in contenders his OT played winston instead of him because he was so bad at it
Don't disrespect ameng please
Who the fuck is babel
He was the other london hitscan lmao
That's why nobody remembers him because glister go brr
yea s3 london was pretty forgettable
Isn't he a coach now
babel is the best player ever of all time

Lmaoo look at this dumbass, typing pedophiles wrong
Teengrazper
pedophiles? thats a weird way to spell Fr3e
hm
Babel seemed pretty good
Without super, shock would have no content
Need the egotistical twig to farm content
that sounds wrong
wow if shock is interested in doing that they should look into signing dreamkazper and mouffin

redshell while they're at it
reindeer mai
Yas
Weeb shit
Mai is top tier
Weeb shit still
Babel was good mayn
Super has to much money value to let go
Honestly uprising academy is better than the actual team Lmfao

What if nyxl signs pine
at least he got frd and ellivote accurate
also elsa at the bottom?
elsa is easily better than frd lmao
not that elsa is that good in general but
molf higher, hawk lower
imo
good to see Lige high tho
I do think Punk is that good though
if punk is really that good and fusions was replaced and soon was added why does nobody have faith 😦
also
chex has emongg as an avoided teammate for some reason lmao
chex uses a black crosshair
I literally said to my friend the other day, what weirdo actually uses a dark colored crosshair
and I believe we have found them
and they happen to be the worst dps in the owl 
ans uses a black crosshair actually
It's called the Chengdu Zone
You can outplay elsa
no usually i find theres so many damn colors in this game u can get away not even using one
But on a streaky day he will slap your mother and almost beat the sf shock in a 2-3
Agreed
chex is just so strange, literally the only owl player who uses a glorious mouse
the rest are all razer zowie or logitech
and this dude got the glorious model 0

The glorious O is fantastic wdym
GiG and Fran happen to use the same Cooler Master lightweight mouse I have
wired or wireless version?
Model o seems pretty pog
Good value for money
Always so sad when people shit on hex
Imagine Shanghai put Diem on Mei all season
Why would you sign him you expect clutch things at best
That’s the predicament Chex is in
😦
At worst well, he said he could place real high on dps ladder
isnt chex a hitscan dps
or like a hitscan with some projectile
even though hitscan is his strongest role
He’s a widow tracer Pharah Ashe guy
it is like when dalton has to flex 
He’s literally a good hitscan he also just was forced to play flex dps all year
Unmistakeable that he's doomed to fail without a complementary hitscan like erster
Where you don't even guess, he'd just okay in whatever role you fit him in
This is the lower salary result of that same player
I think he is still easily low tier hitscan regardless of having to play mei all season. I mean dalton beat him in a 1v1 and this is dalton we talking about lmao
Dalton still a good hitscan too
i mean considering boston now has 3 hitscan dps its seems weird why hes on the roster
And if widow 1v1s meant anything then why isn’t Linkzr considered the best widow NA
Soon is flex, I saw him play the rat at one point
the na widow game weak af in the first place
Shockwave
actually the better comparsion is eu players
NA by far is the weakest region in any fps
Ok I say NA but I mean nonAPAC
corey was probs the last good hitscan dps from NA
maybe tay1o as well but we havent seen his actual hitscan besides genji
I thought cs go was eu dominated
it is
astralis is from denmark 
what do we got going for us in na role wise
actually NA contenders legit just poached players from EU a lot of the time
most of the better NA teams back then are just EU players
I still don't know how usa won owwc
we need more cross region shows in general so we can tell if the gap between someone like ksp and someone like diem is as big as it seems
How did crusty did the fuck up
Ok that's kinda facts
super, sinatraa, moth and pretty much outliers in being NA players
yea
Just get like striker haksal
it was hard double shield
I think NA also practice a bit more than other teams
Viol2t slime
Broken orisa was not hard to play
I want to see diem vs ksp and like onigod vs ans and shit already pls owl cross ocean game pls
sig is still broken in ranked rn lmao
when is he not
could've sworn it said 觀看人數
