now look at him
tbh spark just fell apart at the end of the season
tbh sado was great in season 1 aswell
no
season 2 meta was just not for them
no
you crack head
he was better then he was in season 2
yeah
so
so
because season 2 he was dogshit
better then shit
thats the point
better then dogshit he was shit
he wasnt as god awful as he looked in season 2
big difference
and then season 3 happened and look at him now
so maybe bebe could too
dont act like that game was close tho
it was
wasnt*
1 team fight and they lose
literally 1 team fight
they didnt
then again
thats the same thing about houstan
ATL is dogshit
dude i said houston was gonna be fucking good this year
no one believed me
piggy and jjangu are insane
and jake coming back?
with danteh and happy?
piggy and jjangu might be really good
but lets not forget happy literally won fights for them solo
95% of OWL viewers dont even glance at contenders
or at the other region for that matter
if happy doesnt pop off as he did and not kill violet and fdgod being agrro
they would have lost
even with that amazing tank line
yup
against the 2 time champions
also yea
all im sayin is trust the crust
crusty is gonna go and be like
shock also lost probably one of the most key points of their lineup : moth
super himself said shock spent a lot of time prepping for glads, and not so much the outlaws
i didnt know if anyone noticed
and while fdgod is good, he doesnt have the same role
but in glads game violet was playing a bit of passive game as bap
Striker/Smurf/Viol2t are all more important than moth for that roster imo
but in houston he was being the same as last year
moth wasnt the leader
2 cant
yes he was
no
yeah they dont do bad with violet twilight
Shock would of lost that series if they had moth instead of fdgod still
but moth was easily the best main support in the league
fdgod fed A LOT
they'll be fine
debatable but stupid to debate
Fdgod offers a changeup in playstyle
And shock lost due to them as a whole not playing well
yeah, but is it a good changeup
undoubtedly????
yes
yeah no your smoking that pack
its still the early season
nah
And again, this is early season shock taking a hit of crusty's crack pipe
trust the crust
im not saying shock cant win without moth
This will be the third year in a row they start slow
im saying that fd is a downgrade
Fdgod had the bad luck they Happy was popping. You can't always be in cover as Lucio, you need to take some risks and make plays. Happy did a great job punishing that.
^
^^
Happy was having the game of his life
basically this if happy doesnt pop off
happy got like 3-4 5ks
and punish fdgod
as much as he did
same for violet
this could have been a very different game
all im saying is, fd plays VERY aggro, even in times when he doesnt need to
or when he shouldnt
You know what maybe a bit of a spicy take but, if Happy didn't play so incredibly well, houston lose 3-1
that can be worked
which can lead to, while not intentional, feeding
no i think they still take the first 2 maps
only for now
the great thing about moths lucio was that he would identify a threat and then go deal with it
fd is 24/7 looking for a threat even when there isnt one
And again
I think a big factor for Houston as well is that they didn't really show fear for Shock. I've noticed a lot of teams seem to start and play differently when against a top team such as Shock.
only 2 games
plenty of games to see if things change
punished*
are shock playing this week?
team that still lost to AT oh nonono
and will probably enjoy the game regardless they win or lose
I'm curious what Spitfire and Paris will be doing. Don't expect top plays from Spitfire but hoping they surprise people a bit.
london this year is literally a contenders team
It's rush, anything can happen
wasnt runaway litearlly a contenders team aswell XD
London themselves admitted not expecting to be a top team this year
it wont fair well against top NA teams like fuel, outlaws and shock
not gonna happedn
I could see it happening
if glads lose against london
If glads continue to look lost, and london can play decently, in a rush mirror I can see london winning
I just hope that at least some of the players can show their worth and continue a career in OWL
all hope is lost for them
sparkr
if they lose, they can't make the may melee iirc
I don’t understand why the glads are playing so badly lol
new main tank
dpei still there
london is not a contenders team with sparkr and shax
swapping supports in and out
nahhh
space threw a little
london will be good
not the main tank fault
its a mix
dpei
new MT isn't an excuse with how well Jjangu played imo
sorry thats what i meant
and ga9a
Space was playing fine I don’t think it was a coaching diff either
Maybe muze
Muze seemed like he just got outclassed
he did
i dont think they are communicating well in game
then again
there were alot of mistakes that were just wrong timing
you're going up against fearless and super
2 of the best reins in the league
and you're a rookie
Fair lol
so could just be unlucky
Jjangu had to go vs them as well and did well
la glads 100% has coaching issues
jjangu also had synergy with piggy [2]
didnt nico come out and said dpei is not a good coach?
where as muze had no synergy with space
space wasnt too hot either lets b real
I don’t think it’s a coach problem I think muze just needs to get more time
yeah
Glads on paper should not be this bad
on paper dragons shouldnt lose to hunters 3-0
^
fuel and shock on paper also stacked so that argument is like
hmm
also I do think that glads prepared more against shock too
except coach diff
My point is coaching is probably a big issue
they had 3 role stars, the reigning MVP, the coach of the year, and were the APAC regular season winners
fuel is understandable tbh, it's a meta where long range hitscan and tracer are needed and they're missing those 2
sparkles tracer is nothing to laugh at
and his doom is easily the best in the league
chipsa
hes not in the league anymore
not in the league tho
his tracer is okay, but it's not his comfort pick at all
thats true
xzi was never gonna play tracer for them
xzi wouldnt play tracer
right now sparkle has to practice a bunch of projectile stuff, and tracer and possibly more hitscan
unless rush wanted da sparkle widow
wouldnt it be smart to let doha practice hitscans
speaking of tracer
no idea why doha didn't play tracer
doha already plays sombra
so why could he not play tracer
what do you guys think of atlanta right now
unless they really want doha to play mei
specifically their dps
pelican is good
dont bring up atlanta here
kai is good
edison was good last year
yeah im aware
dont know this year
it wont end well
atlanta always gets hyped
@balmy wolf
then suck
anyway
why dont they make edison they're tracer specialist
pelican is better than him on flex
and kai is better than him on hitscan
but neither of them can play a really good tracer
they're decent on it
but edison imo edges them out
so just make him specialize in that
but if hes not gonna play the one hero you might need him to
then why have him on the roster
at all
hes not gonna play long range hitscan or any hitscan for that matter
you have kai for that
and pelican has shown that he can go toe to toe with some really fuckin good flex dps
especially his echo
so why tf do you have edison other than make him play tracer and make him get his tracer to the peak it can be
edison is literally a wasted roster spot/contract money if you dont do that
just have him specialize in tracer
do y'all think erster will ever get any playtime
idk why moon got him
im not sure what purpose he srves on shanghai
maybe like silly dps specialist/
i have no idea
probably if we get a genji meta like last year
fleta didnt look comfortable as genji that much
so maybe they want him to play genji or doom if that happens
he was
werent ppl saying he could have an mvp season last year
but he just never got played
Dogman said he just didn’t want to play
and he didnt play too good in next
so dogman says
maybe he just doesnt like ow anymore
which is normal
why would you pick up someone that doesnt like ow anymore
thats kinda wasting resources
diem erster cracked
erster might have fallen off but surely he is better than dding at projectile I presume
but pretty sure fleta covered most of that so idk
dding played like pharah sometimes right?
he played like once on control last year
Yeah echo on Lijang iirc

2. How can one be this cracked?
I swear I very vaguely remember dding playing on anubis last year but I can't be sure
probably thinking of luffy tbh
does anyone know how how pickrates are calculated, like is it just a hero being picked for a minute or is it only factored if the hero is played for the majority/entire round
for owl ofc
it's probably time played
damn i was looking forward to the near 100% sym pickrate so far
debuff bastion
Buff bastion make him move 2x faster and slower when in sentry mode
So make him move in sentry as well
Dva mech being able to land 250 mech damage when she calls it 
I believe they don't count a hero played at all if it has under a certain amount of playtime in a game. So stall heroes etc. are usually not even included in what teams played or not.
Anyone wanna play
I love how his pinned tweet is his crosshair settings
I am pretty sure stall heroes are counted
I remember seeing a stat where sleepy had 88 deaths/10 on tracer
he prolly swapped to stall, died, then the game ended
One in 155 users went the distance for Chengdu last week
they must have been on purpose throwing just for the memes, and accidentally got it right
Imagine if someone played the pick’ems with pure rng and they’re now rank 1 on the leaderboard
all it takes is a couple double point wins
it's a long season
says the guy in 11th place :/
I DID MINE THIS WEEK
Where can i pick

overwatchiscool
yeah because i remembered picking somewhere but i had no idea where
ok
Done
I made some weird preds
Spark over nyxl
Paris taking a map over houston
And my best one
3-2 london over glads xd
o same
lmao
if this is true
the dpei is the worst coach to exist
That’s reall good
I’m not confident in my picks this week at all
i am not confident in my east picks
Iirc Ana has the most amount of votes rn
👀 is she gonna be the one who gets it though
they might just pull a lmao fuck it
and give it to someone else
I want it to be ana but that'd also mean having to lose the sniper skin gun
the sniper skin looks good but the gun is horrible
which is thicc and chonky how I like 'em
I love the chonky feel and those little leggies
but I hate how I can't switch between skins because the default gun is so skinny after that
and it fucks up my aim for absolutely no reason
nevertheless
I hope it's ana
I hope its winston
monke
I mean as long as it's not a dps
Either we both win or we both lose horribly xd
If london plays some variation of tracer and shax pops off then london has a really strong chance of winning
I don't know how good shax really is but I'm rooting for glads
Shax is good, but hes not going to be that top 3 tracer that they need to carry this game
He looked good last season, but valiant was still very average
Very middle of the pack
i mean fuck they lost to glads at the end of the season
shax is totally top 5
striker sbb shax profit and uh
Shax is defo top 5 and last season he was winning duels against yaki
rascal xd
Buger
Gib him a buger
yaki is so good
3-1 vs houston? Interesting
@plush grail also going for london very nice
I only went for london in one game against glads
But i made houston v London very close
Wait...YOU HAVE PARIS OVER HOUSTON ASWELL
yeah
All of your predictions look like fun games except the obvious Washington 3-0
i'm kinda waiting
if they perform well against paris
i'm gonna predict a 3-1 or 3-2 for justice
but as it stands rn
3-0
idk these predictions are hard to do because most of these teams have not played yet at all
Is there a chance titans make it really close to paris and might even win?
so your saying that paris would have beaten shock aswell?
can u read what i said
Also that logic is very flawed
sorry london
If paris beats houston doesn't mean they can beat shock
Its how some team handles other teams
Same for london
Plus as luigi said eu teams havent played yet so we don't know what to expect from them
I have hopes for london atleast
i know they're not gonna be the champions
Because i liked hurricane and shax is amazing
but imo i can still have high hopes in the first few games
Blase is the only week point i see in that team
after that i'll adjust my expectations fromt hem
boston goes 2-0 this week
stfu
no
yeah youre dumb
are u boston? cause i wanna beat u @devout path
we know
Boston aint winning twice
One maybe
But 2 no
This aint gonna be like houston again
Yes
they might legit lose to boston
But fuel doesn't look that bad
I have faith in fuel
im doubting myself now
i hate boston but my faith in la glads is low low low low
boston so bad holy shit
yeah
change paris
no
dont troll
im a paris simp
cant see that
ty for sucking atlanta :)
better than paris
I had faith in Atlanta and i went with 3-2
true
when do they play
boston could abuse the fact that they have no hitscan
lol
valentine kinda cracked on echo
Doha will go on his infamous soldier xd
Its on sunday
We have to wait 2 days for that
3 hours left
paris 3-0 shock
If Paris even makes it close against Shock, it'll be a huge upset
I think shock just stomps everyone now that they lost
I wouldn't be that sure, some of the teams this season are looking quite good. There's only so much time before the rest catch up to you.
Is it weird i am more excited about listening to ow lofi rather then the games
well the games this weekend largely probably won't be too exciting
chengdu v nyxl is about the most exciting one
maybe boston v glads
chengdu v philly possibly
Justice vs fuel
I suppose so
Also i meant in general
Because i am excited for the games
yes then
I mean, I like the music too, but it isn't all that entertaining compared to the games
the music would have to be quite sublime to surpass houston v shock
like, the gameplay wasn't the highest quality of all time but that was such a hype match as a houston fan
and the quality was still pretty good
Yea plus it was weird seeing shock on the backfoot for so long
And be the one adjusting to things
Junkbuck diff
Because they make other team adjust to them not the other way around
Did you see the interaction between junkbunk and crusty on twitter
what made it for me was houston almost getting reverse swept and then clutching
ye lol
jjanggu cold man
that shatter
balls of steel
Junkbunk saying learned from the best and crusty saying cringe
"I didn't specify you"
Then houston just full held better
That was such a good roast
violet dying from the strike was what saved that series
Did you guys see the coms video
Jjangu face was so concentrated like he was ready for anything
Glister on tracer is kinda wasting glister
The man popped of on widow
crusty was not ready for Houston yet
even if houston end up doing a lot worse by the end of the season they are the by far best iteration of houston yet
They didn't expected them to be THIS good
put him on doom and mei
and shock win
Get rid of nero
Nero not a top tier player
Glister has good doom?
Yes
I didn't know rhat
Oh damn
Glister was the best player 2019
houston may be in a spot of trouble if they have a doom meta
He played everything
hydration has a decent doom
Striker and glister is the best combl
but they lost blase
hydration...
the chaddest of the dooms
for real though blase had a pretty good doom actually
mans finna be on more teams than kellex
Kellex played for boston and?
He was in toronto
hydration doom danteh sombra sounds decent enough though
I would think hydration would be the better doom option
I wanna watch that
maybe if paris wins my gf will come back to me
LOL
they seem to want jake when he plays to be more of a support player
those are some tough odds
though I miss the jakerat
Remember when jakerat played against Korea
I remember seeing houston beating seoul with jakerat before we knew seoul was bad and being super impressed
Those are his famous heros
And almost won
I really liked the jehong monkey
jhong tank
top 20 in the league
uhh, you remember season one differently than I do
oh it was a joke
I mean gido was a fs player
Seoul season 1 was a mess of a team
But I think s2 washington was smth else
Same for dallas
nah remember when dallas and seoul went against eachother in the grand finals
Stratus on Zen
I mean he really was dps first
Yeah true
3h
pre-show is in 45 mins
Ooo
no the match is in 1 hour and 15 mins??
@trail perch
ooo bet
I expect him to retire either way
i really expected him to become a full time streamer months ago
Alright gang we got London goin 3-1 over glads right

dont make fun of my predictions
its gonna happen
Gladiators keep playing like they have and if rush stays relevant genuinely could happen
rush is not meta
lmaooo the atlanta simp
hey
he found out the hard way that rush it's meta 
It goes back and forth between monke and rush from what I've seen at least
Pretty sure it's not going to be on the current patch
okay but first paris fucks the titans
what is that sentence
but yeah it hurt

Guangzhou is pretty dogshit
charge < valiant
he found out the hard way that rush isn't meta
***
my fav team > your fave team
God I hate that atlanta won't just sign a new main tank wtf 😭
they kept trying to run rein dva WITHOUT lucio
Chengdu above all
yooo gator is solid
and then they ran dive and fed
hawk is worse
deadass a ranked ladder game whenever gz plays
daan ellivote > hawk gator
ok no
Tbf ellivote is ass
stop you wiener
frdwnr

ty
3-2
london
Paris better shit the bead so the people can get their breadsticks!
shit the bead
This is genuinely the only match titans could potentially get the breadsticks
ur brain is small we know

Idk my pick em sucks I just said like 3-1 for every team with better power rankings than the other lmao

smooth brain
did it start yet
22 mins
The games start in over 50 minutes
I have 9 points ur so dogshit

are the OWL games this weekend going to be on the new balance changes?
I really hope London perform well 
3-1 for paris
cause it's not live yet
i thought it goes live as soon as the stream starts
well it is live
but yea that makes sense
but drops starts when the pre-show starts
just listen to the voices in your head
i do
are they fun
no
then stop listening to them
perhaps
the voices tell you paris wins?
BDOSIN WHY DON'T USE YOUR ULT. FUCKING ZEN
i hear rascal screaming
in my head
34/7

bdosin sadge
sadge
shax lookin fly 
budget superman face
Lol that weird effect on his hair

paris #6 pog
we see justice today?
paris should have it on lock
Boston has a all european team right?
no
i cant even believe that toronto defiant is top 3
korean

mixed
no way glads loses to london
paris and london are full EU
hippity hoppity, gtfo property
ill become a shock fan if so
paris omegalul
london winning or i hope so atleast
bostion isnt
london all eu
why the fuck did i mixed them up
they will
sorry
london are champions
you have no faith
london will destroy glad
british hurricane could take maps off glads if LA still plays like trash
whos even on london
pray for british hurricane beating all the owl
didnt they erase the roster
then justice should be american tornado
yes, british hurricane rolls all of owl
heh
I believe
from last season
I think it is good that they are all europeanen, I like the mix instead off heaving all asians/north america
F for Jeff
yeah, hope some chinese jumps to na teams too
''la glads championship worthy team''
imagine Diya in...
chengdu #1 pog
I get why but it also gets a bit tyring cause i like to see diviserty
lmfao
glads on the bottom next to titans and valiant
anyone is doubting the power of chengdu?
sadge
they won against atlanta lol
i wnna see justice play
reign garbo
thats a yikes
defiant was good
as if tor is so much better
like most of my hometown teams dont do good
until they subbed out the good players for the b team
listen man
jinmu
sado chug diff

they switched out sado for beast for some reason
frrr
imagine paris losing to some random contenders titans 
sados coke boost
jinmu mvp
wrong gif
image perms
shh
SADO IS CARRYING DEFFIANT NO WONDER
you do know the paris roster from last year got dropped right
u did not see that
Big dick Lastro carrying too
his coke bottle has overwatch cheat codes written on it lmao
wdym paris still has sparkle right??!?!?!?!
sparkle is fuel
lastro and sado carrying
sparple
naist pretty damn good
or who was that guy
paris still has sparkle? are you not noticin it? just because it's not inthe same team, doesnt mean sparkle is not in paris
I don't remember his name
everyone is spamming f for jeff lmfao
f for jeff
ofc i know paris is full EU now, thats why i like them
no nico 
no xzi 
the sexiest man in owl isnt in owl
who?
ya
when theres no asian in the team, there is no win
thats the other sexiest man ever
Its sbb benbest then poko
sbb poko benbest
widesbbhappy
seeing striker sad makes me sad
can we just take a second and appreciate how good uber is at casting
striker tears lol
like how good he is
shock pretty damn sad
the guy that casts with matt
ubereats
the aussie
ok I get the houston win was unexpected and a good series
watch vancouver titans get 0 - 3 lmfao
oh matt's sidekick???
but fuck are they milking it hard already
titans current roster is TRASHHHHHHHHH
i am expecting british hurricane beating glads
same
best casting duo is sideshow bren
true
wrong
It is not weird that shok loses either cause they normaly have a rough start
monte doa
but best solo caster is uber
okay guys idea what if owl has a bunch of co streams where you can watch each players perspective
he hypes game like no one else
vikkykitty and jaws best
it used to happen with twitch all access
sideshow is bald, he wins
yes but twitch is twitch
jake can rap
I don't wanna pay money to watch owl
but he left to play brig in outluls
owl ads are weird
sadge
I personally loved when reinforce would cast, I recall summer showdown he said fuck accidentally while casting after someone got a shot from a gross angle and it was good fun
well you can watch it on owl replay veiwer

owl ads feel like high school projects
fuck
reinforce as a caster is amazing too
remember when Hex was drugged casting late games?
happy mvp if the keep the consistency
Matt's got an interesting personality
if i stream owl from my phone to my tv would it still detect im watching and give me drops?
i just want a lucio player to win mvp
if happy keeps playing this way easily mvp
no idea
Wait has Houston played another game?
dallas
