I have only seen a few series, but Soule Dynasty and LA Valiant strike me as C tier teams. They're not bad, but they're not that good either. Philly fusion is a B tier. They're pretty good, but I think they get squashed later on
Philly gets knocked out once they play against an actually great team
cedar oasis
philly has hotba
plush grail
seoul is for sure better
and i doubt philly is gonna become worse
it's only uphill for philly
once the EU players start joining
mortal abyss
We'll see philly's true strength this weak vs chengdu
cobalt thistle
once the EU players start joining
For sure
mortal abyss
once the EU players start joining
yup, they might find it a bit hard at first to intergrate the eu players but once that's sorted our they'll pound

he will drag philly down
He looked pretty good last week honestly

"sure, we'll just start flinging ideas against the wall and try them out in our game tomorrow"

Shock were trying ta1yo in the first map, but after that there wasn't really an excuse for them "trying" new comps
People also said shock only "tried" on the last 2 maps
which is just
not true

I'm tired of seeing teams run double bubble on meka base busan
plush grail
just because u want to ''try stuff''
cobalt thistle
I've seen it multiple times and it falls flat every time
Maybe it's actually strong against dva rein and the teams that have run it are just shit
but from what I've seen, it's not
mortal abyss
What teams have run it (on meka base)
i remember valiant doing it
where they nanoed krystal only for him to translocate away instantly
cobalt thistle
I know that Fuel ran it. Valiant also
mortal abyss
where they nanoed krystal only for him to translocate away instantly
that nano hack put the fear of god in Fusion
plush grail
idk those 2 dont really count imo
cobalt thistle
At the start of the round their dive was times incorrectly and their doom died instantly
cobalt thistle
idk those 2 dont really count imo
yeah maybe tbh
"Shock were only trying in the last two maps" is a stupid as fuck argument
plush grail
they were trying HARD but it wasn't enough
why would they all react so emotionally if they were not trying
cobalt thistle
Exactly
digital cloud
they were trying really hard and lost to a team with multiple noobs
probably boomed the hell out of them
cobalt thistle
Mom san francisco shock is throwing in owl again
digital cloud
though they are the shock so that won't last

weirdChamp, it is a possibility

he's the one making the call to play glister on tracer over striker
digital cloud
striker is their best cree except violet
but they need violet on bap pretty often
they probably need glister to get up to snuff on tracer for when they need striker cree glister tracer violet bap
tribal canopy
wasnt twighlight a good bap?

pretty good but they probably prefer violet
but I suppose it comes down to what they need most

looking back, fate not being comfortable on the ball and diem inting was a huge contribution to their loss on gibraltar
they basically forced winston and fate just fed because the comp didn't work well together

Fate is comfortable on the ball
Diem was okay underwhelming
I just don't know why void played sig

id argue watching guangzhou was more depressing
marble sky
god i havent even watched them yet
frank granite
they weren't that bad
tropic herald
they got 3-0ed twice by worse teams than valiant and valiant even took a map
marble sky
valiant have good potential 🙂 their team chemistry still seem to be in the works. I guess we'll just see how they go! we've still got a lot of games to sift through
but yes RIP old valiant roster, will be missed and it will forever be a meme
but its fine
tropic herald
if valiant want to perform better
get a new main tank
as of now silver3 is not it
marble sky
yikes
i really enjoyed watching krystal play
up against carpe, it was a good watch tbh
tropic herald
or maybe its showcheng/highbee
but the overall coordination doesnt sit right
so silver looks like a feeder but other players also play super passive
marble sky
they seem to lose their footing really fast
tropic herald
showcheng looks like he is playing zarya but he forgetrs zarya is a tank
but overall their team is still better than charge
idek what to say about them
marble sky
i'm just trying to remember if i even watched them play last year
marble sky
roster change? or just poor work?
tropic herald
they dropped everyone but crong rio and eileen
then the only real upgrades were archane and choisehwan
marble sky
i will never understand teams doing that
especially when there is no real reason to make a change in the first place

I need your opinion
(I’m A Houston Fan)
So I’ve noticed (and enjoyed watching) Houston’s success in past few games, and I want to know everyone’s take on it, (This is completely opinion based for everyone), do you think that The Outlaws will remake themselves as a top tier team? Or do you think from here they will fall. I think that the new Outlaws roster is pretty sweet, could use some work on their support line but for the most part above average. I think that this year the Outlaws will be a top 5 or higher team (I have high hopes tho).q
I want to know what your opinion is. (I won’t judge your opinion so don’t judge mine)
earnest leaf
I think so long as they have junkbuck, and what we've seen from their roster even in two games, it will be hard for them to fall off
i think it would take a large mental booming or failing to read the meta entirely for them to fall off, but they do seem promising
The thing that I'm going to watch is how well they adjust and perform when there are drastic meta shifts, since atm imo rush can make teams look better than they are
turbid cargo
Ty for your opinion!
worn falcon
I can't judge much just with 2 games, they seems solid, but the more they play the more the others teams start to reading then, studying their wealness and as flame said, how they adapt to the meta changes, i doubt we get something drastic but anything can happens here.
tawdry hamlet
they look way better than I expected and they did beat two teams that a lot of people had on lock for top 4 so that is great, but it was also a weekend full of upsets and only 2 series. if they come out and destroy both london and paris then I have very high hopes since even if they are low tier teams the consistency is what I really wanna see since like dallas for example lost to houston but then beat LA so nothing is set in stone

Can someone tell me when everyone became hot on kevster?
He was very average last year
and contendies was sooo long ago

I think people think that since they play on high ping they must be gods on low ping
Same as fielder
Which just doesn’t make sense to me imo

sure they nearly got reverse swept, but Houston actually took fights properly, they cycled ults, they managed to properly hold in overtime

Houston coaching kinda outcoached shock ngl

true, but even though shock was clearly trying, shock do tend to experiment early
either way though, man that game was hype
devout path
I just think they didn’t prepare as much for the Houston game as Houston did

I think that is a good way of putting it
shock wasn't throwing but they didn't prep for houston like houston did for them
that said, Houston coaching, as you stated, was great
like, where was this last year

thought we had junkbuck last year

jeff had to leave blizzard so that he was free to be the new dallas hitscan obviously
idk how nobody sees this
sullen berry
You know highbee was able to fill in their roster lock at short notice
kind ridge
he still wearing xzi shirt
next mesa
that was just his alt
sullen berry
Would look great in a a pair of SF socks 🧦
cobalt thistle
Sparkle should stop playing doomfist
He's not that good at doom
Should start just running cree, way better pick
raw ermine
where did you get that idea from?
they have no hitscan, so running a comfort pick would work til they get a HS dps
cobalt thistle
Ok
So makes sense
I thought they were running doom because they thought it was a legitimate strategy
cobalt thistle
for sure :)
Still watching through the older games I missed. I enjoy figuring out how the cookie crumbles
that's the sort of thing you see in OWL, why fights go one way and what the win cons are
tropic herald
He's not that good at doom
now this is a hot take
id suggest watching a little more of sparkle
hes pretty good at the doom hero some say
cobalt thistle
He's not bad at the hero, just not good enough imo
tropic herald
did you watch any games of him on doom not with dallas
cobalt thistle
again, I'm not saying he's bad at the hero
tropic herald
i will say he looked not as good bc he was often forced into sub optimal comps just due to no hitscan players
but i promise you hes really good at doom
cobalt thistle
I'm not doubting you lol, I'm sure he's good at doom but he isn't performing well enough in owl is what I'm saying
balmy wolf
and hes playing doom in a comp not designed for him, he did well for the circumstances his team was in
cobalt thistle
Sure
tropic herald
he wasnt exactly given the best chance to prove himself on doom if your sample size is his two games on dallas
balmy wolf
wait for a doom heavy meta and you'll see how sparkles does
cobalt thistle
Maybe there's a reason he doesn't play doom very often haha, I'll be looking for any more owl games where he's on doom
cobalt thistle
wait for a doom heavy meta and you'll see how sparkles does
I'm sure last season he'd be having a field day
tropic herald
i dont remeber him on doom much last season but ill link games if i remember them
balmy wolf
you'll have to watch his contenders games then
tropic herald
id more so suggest his tendies games
cobalt thistle
The meta doesn't suit doom very well unfortunately rn
cobalt thistle
Hackfist was extremely intriguing for the small amount of time it was played
tropic herald
i think doom isnt bad in this meta but they didnt play the right comp for a doom
cobalt thistle
Before goats took over haha
balmy wolf
hackfist was a counter comp against goats
cobalt thistle
i think doom isnt bad in this meta but they didnt play the right comp for a doom
Agreed!
Wrong comp wrong map
balmy wolf
it work in certain map types like koth
cobalt thistle
hackfist was a counter comp against goats
really? I recall hackfist being meta shortly before goats
balmy wolf
sparkles team used it a lot against goats
the trick with the comp was the ult cycle which was cancer to face against
grav + doom, then emp is saved or the reverse
cobalt thistle
I forget, who is EM
cobalt thistle
nice ty
cobalt thistle
Remember when clockwork vendetta was all the rage?
balmy wolf
they did surprisingly well
cobalt thistle
"TORB META??"
tropic herald
CV was very good at one comp but i dont think any of the players are notable
cobalt thistle
yeah
it was just picked up because they're all one tricks
and then swiftly forgotten
not really one tricks, but you know what I mean
balmy wolf
think most of the team left after their 1st season
cobalt thistle
it became something they didn't want to be a part of
earnest leaf
Did I just read someone saying sparkle wasn't good at doom
cobalt thistle
cobalt thistle
Happy is a really fucking good cree
Game balance is pretty good. We're seeing quite a few comps going on rn
Mostly rush, double bubble and rein dva
tropic herald
equally as bad of a take
they havent watched much sparkle dont worry we solved this one
earnest leaf
Teams should unironically be worried if there is a doom meta
Because dallas would fuck people in a doom meta
tropic herald
i just want db to be full meta so i can live in mayhem zone
trail perch
He's not bad at the hero, just not good enough imo
hehe talking bout the best doom in the world
lmao
Literally would diff anyone
digital cloud
nah, that would be my man blase
halcyon furnace
mortal abyss
What happened
cinder oak
He just ensured no real team will probably want to work with him again after spitting out that much shit. No matter if there's any truth to it, if he still had a chance of a career, it is now gone. (if he had a chance to start with is questionable already though)
vagrant cargo
Nico didnt make it as a player for a reason
sullen berry
Rewatching Australia Contenders Playoffs
plush grail
why
karmic grotto
You know what I realised
That Outlaws could have won Blizzard World
Sometimes, you have to go kamikaze instead of doing last possible moments
When Shock was contesting second point in overtime
Piggy could have won them the round
Because, seconds ago, viol2t lamp was eliminated
They would have to get cover in that instant
Danteh wouldn
need to be eliminated and he could have ult
I'd understand why he would hide behind the wall, but, if his teammates comms that choi is low, then piggy could have flow there
and if they would focus him anyway, he can self destruct
then Danteh would use ult
Outlaws could have won that
plush grail
kinda risky
next mesa
Nico toxic
next mesa
Im surprised they think nico mei is bad though, thought it was his best hero
next mesa
Mei
karmic grotto
kinda risky
Well, in overtime? Anything can be done since it won't matter
I'm still salty that danteh didn't ult
plush grail
for sure the least memorable player
karmic grotto
man hold ult back till next match 
plush grail
Well, in overtime? Anything can be done since it won't matter
outlaws won even though they didn't force the flex support on cree???
next mesa
also imo sparkle > blase > mirror > chipsa
cursive plover
outlaws won even though they didn't force the flex support on cree???
How surprising
raw ermine
no jake cree? O_O
karmic grotto
you know how i think scrims feel like?
like playing archives legendary mode to get skins
repeat while knowing what will come and try to adapt to it
you know, I have a serious issue with these players often not being aware 100%
plush grail

More often than not, the most obvious thing will happen
First, on lijang tower hydration
Man literally did the same thing twice
Slam E from high ground
You literally can except it when you can
plush grail
tbf the example u gave before was kinda hard
but the hydration doom
shock was legit fucking dumb
karmic grotto
He did it twice
Like, how can you not see that?
I even called it out when watching live
plush grail
doom does 125 damage or something when he gets some height with his ability
karmic grotto
Yeah
plush grail
try guessing where he's gonna approach from
is he gonna approach from behin?? to ur left??? or from the super high thing
karmic grotto
Like for real man, always ask yourself where's coming from. Because if he's not with the team, then he's flanking
cursive plover
I think shock really underestimated outlaws
plush grail
yeah but tbf isn't checking highground for dives just game sense
cursive plover
But seeing the texas teams have success makes me incredibly happy
raw ermine
might have overprepared for LAG, and not enough for houston
plush grail
the top players should for sure check for dives
even if they're facing a lesser team
karmic grotto
in this case
Choi had to check for doomfist
Not idea why tf he didnt do that
You know what, F*ck it, the whole shock had to scout hydration
karmic grotto
yeah
karmic grotto
you mean taiyo?
plush grail
wait lmao yeah
karmic grotto
XD
karmic grotto
I have another example, this time Crimzo
plush grail
wdym
karmic grotto
What can go wrong?
