polar dirge

flame is a fanboy leave him alone

small breach
#

paris still looked pretty good imo... saying "they just beat paris" seems a bit silly to me

hollow bough
#

shock may not be the best team but they are MY team

stuck radish
#

thank god shock didnt play like they did vs london

small breach

especially cause they just beat la

mortal abyss
worldly flax
#

biased lmao SombraGiggle

earnest leaf
#

I never said paris was bad

tropic herald
#

i am a shock doubter Pog

forest raven
#

I think Viol2t is just their new MS outside of koth and zen favoured maps now

tropic herald
#

i know that team is never going to win a stage this season

mortal cipher
earnest leaf
#

I'm just laughing because what I said came true

#

Shock wins, people still try and make it out to be a loss for them

small breach
#

i doubt shock can beat dallas in finals, but imo is atleast top 3

#

na*

earnest leaf
#

guess shock never wins unless they 3-0 and never allow the other team to cap a point

tropic herald
#

hey man im just saying every time shock loses people huff the copium and say they are still top 3 team

hollow bough
#

this series is gonna end with yet another shanghai vs dallas game

#

season*

earnest leaf
#

what 3 teams are over them in na?

#

Dallas yes

#

glads I could see

worn falcon
#

Vanc

tropic herald
#

dallas glads are just over them perma

mortal cipher
mortal abyss
#

we havent seen enough teams play yet, like houston and reign, who could defo be better then shock

hollow bough
#

boston has been doing pretty good so far but idk if they can beat shock

tropic herald
#

until shock wins a map in knockouts i will refrain from calling them top 3

worn falcon
#

houston if they stop benching jjanggu

tropic herald
#

glads has been in less knockouts and won more maps

hollow bough
#

id say top are shock glad and fuel

tropic herald
#

also id rate atlanta above shock for obv reasons

#

unless atlanta poos this meta

hollow bough
#

make it interesting and lets have an outlaws comeback

tropic herald
#

which is possible

hollow bough
#

double regions

small breach
#

i think we need to wait for next match atleast to say if atlanta is higher than shock

forest raven
#

I do expect an L tomorrow

#

Against outluls

tropic herald
#

im just over the shock copium this season :/ so many people think shock are still god among men and its like bro

worldly flax
#

ANS PogChimp

dreamy jasper
#

ans 😩😍

tropic herald
#

they could get the threepeat but the % is around the same as a team like atlanta winning it all

earnest leaf
#

Yea shock shit the bed terribly in knockouts

#

But they still have been pretty solid in the regular season

hollow bough
#

i don't care what you think or how well shock does, they're still my favorite team

north relic
#

so who do you think is top 3 other than fuel and glads

earnest leaf
#

Also I don't think atlanta has the same chance to win the league as shock

#

not with gator hawk lmao

tropic herald
#

seoul has been pretty solid in the regular season but the only people i see with seoul copium is levy

mortal abyss
#

wait ans is wearing a glister jersey lmfao

earnest leaf
#

yea well no one cares about apac

hollow bough
#

i like seoul as well

worldly flax
forest raven
#

Where's the paris simp

hollow bough
#

apac is a lot more fun to watch than NA imo

forest raven
tropic herald
#

also in terms of winning the season

worldly flax
#

how did you even notice that lol

tropic herald
#

its basically shanghai or dallas

#

no one else

small breach
#

prob

forest raven
#

Agree

earnest leaf
#

I'd say more likely that dallas or shd win it all

#

But glads/shock/seoul/philly imo are still higher than the rest of the teams to win it all as well

hollow bough
#

thats what happened the last 2 seasons so its not that bold of a pred

small breach
#

wait ans glister jersey lol

forest raven
#

Can we just go to the Dallas Shanghai grand final already

tropic herald
#

its like 45 shd 45 dal 10 glads shock seoul philly hangzhou atlanta

forest raven
hollow bough
#

naw

earnest leaf
#

I have no idea why you rate atlanta so highly

hollow bough
#

let me enjoy my games

tropic herald
#

and then every other team is unlikely

earnest leaf
#

besides their tourney run they've been mid tier as usual

tropic herald
#

pelican is literally the prodigy of echo

earnest leaf
#

Yea

hollow bough
#

is that danny??!

tropic herald
#

he will drag atlanta to a win if echo is meta

earnest leaf
#

but they have gator/hawk

#

Like atlanta is 9th in Na

Why is ans wearing glister jersey tf ?

worldly flax
fallen turret
#

lolol

tawdry hamlet
#

I rate atlanta higher as they have been playing better but at the same time when it comes down to it the odds of them tank diffing shanghai or dallas are slim

next mesa
#

LETS GO SEOUL

#

👏 SEOUL POWER

tropic herald
#

atlanta are 9th bc they didnt play week 1

#

it seems like 3 teams are ahead of them bc they played last week

balmy wolf
#

tor paris and boston

hollow bough
#

not all of the teams have played yet so we dont rlly know the standings lol

balmy wolf
#

all 2-0 last week

hollow bough
#

Watch fuel boof this season and prove us all wrong

earnest leaf
#

now I did just shit on atlanta

#

but they win this match 3-1

tropic herald
#

i have no idea how to feel about this matchup

#

justice overall have massively underperformed

earnest leaf
#

I think reign just forces rush or poke and wins

hollow bough
#

I think reign wins

tropic herald
#

but atlanta have also massively overperformed

earnest leaf
#

justice look shit on everything besides hard dive

stuck radish
#

if mag and fury can actually not suck

earnest leaf

Man how did Shock 3-1 Dallas and 3-2 Washington in the Journament and then get 3-0'd by Atlanta

fast tusk
#

reign 3-2

earnest leaf
#

caught off guard by atlanta's understanding of the meta

tropic herald
#

bc when you dont lose you learn less

balmy wolf
#

good shit custa

#

my man

tropic herald
#

idk if i worded that the right way but its the sentiment

earnest leaf
#

also it's not because shock got shit on in knockouts

fast tusk
#

my boi custa

earnest leaf
#

but double elim knockouts would be cool

mortal abyss
#

that would take way too long

earnest leaf
#

So we don't get repeats of shit like nyxl making it in

hollow bough
tropic herald
#

double elim knockouts could be cool but also like thats a solid 3 years of games

balmy wolf
#

im so hyped bro

ivory stag
#

I hope justice wins tbh idc though really for either team kai and pelican are pretty pog though

balmy wolf
#

cant take it

tropic herald
#

id rather just have 5 or 6 game quals

balmy wolf
#

balmy wolf
#

tropic herald
#

vestola is better for sure

#

i like vestola how he uses boosters cc

earnest leaf
#

I think daan said vestola was better mechanically, but ellivote was a better shotcaller/leader

#

loll

willow tartan

I'm high off my rockers

earnest leaf

I've been saying decay is overrated

#

His tracer is pretty solid

north relic
#

justice losing isnt entirely on decay

earnest leaf
#

But off of tracer he's another upper mid tier dps player

north relic
tropic herald
#

watching decay on sym today was a lil painful

earnest leaf
#

I'd say people like edison/jerry/heesu

#

In a sense of tiers

#

Like more A tier

#

maybe B+

tropic herald
#

hes similar to all of those players too

willow tartan
#

heesu is a solid player

tropic herald

where hes really fucking good at one hitscan and the rest is good

excited to see checkmate MTD fearless

do you guys think checkmate will be better than oge

lmao justice would release all their players for decay to stay

north relic
balmy wolf
#

Justice are just garbage

#

Their versatility is awful

#

Their coaching staff are a bunch of frauds

willow drum
balmy wolf
#

Their Support line should be demoted to contenders

#

This team should just stick to one tricking because that’s all they can do

willow drum
#

I mean

#

Outlaws is good at Rush

#

and Dallas is good at Dive

#

but yeah, Justice maybe bottom 10 team

ivory stag
#

did they ever say which skin in OW gray will be out for watching 4+ hours this summer showdown?

dark hedge
#

Ive been saying decay was overrated lmao

willow drum
dark hedge
#

Hes good but ppl treat him like the best dps in the game

north relic
#

Who would be the best dps, I think it would be sp9rk1e or lip

noble nexus
#

fleta

#

or profit

#

or rascal if he gets his shit together

#

this season sparkle and lip have looked great but overall those 3 are my best dps ever

north relic
#

I think striker would be better than rascal if you are talking about the history of owl

earnest leaf
#

there is no best dps imo

#

Since they all have different hero pools

#

I think you can do it via Flex Dps/ Hitscan dps

willow drum
#

Ok, if we're talking abt Hitscans

#

Ans is def

#

high

earnest leaf
#

ans imo is top 2

willow drum
#

If he's not 1st he's 2nd

earnest leaf
#

#1 if he plays at his best

dark hedge
#

Isnt ans washed up

willow drum
#

ok yeah but who's #1

willow drum
earnest leaf
#

he looked like normal today

willow drum
#

did u see his headshots on tsuna?

dark hedge
#

No lol i wasnt watching

willow drum
#

Ah

dark hedge
#

But ive heard ppl call him washed up

willow drum
#

those headshots ruined my pants

willow drum
dark hedge
#

And they apparently benched him a couple times so i just assumed

earnest leaf
#

He lost his two maps vs glads but that was more a team diff

willow drum
#

Yeah, Shock are "back"

#

and then proceeded to get 3-0ed in the knockouts by some team

dark hedge
#

Classic shock

earnest leaf
#

true

willow drum
#

Shock cycle of misrry

willow tartan
#

stfu misery when back to back championship wins

i hate u all

tropic herald
#

LIP best hitscan no bias

noble nexus
#

Ans has two games back from 6 months away and people call him washed

earnest leaf
#

Lip very good but peak ans is better than everyone

#

Peak ans would bend over lip and spank him

#

I'd rate lip higher

#

but man can't land emps consistently omegalul

tropic herald
#

Good thing Sombra isn’t a hitscan in owl terms

#

Also

#

The picture not the tweet

earnest leaf
#

god that's pretty true

#

They are the shaq meme

tropic herald
#

They are sickos in OT

#

Correction kaan is a sicko in OT

earnest leaf
#

It's kinda funny how paris can make mid season roster changes and come out better

tropic herald
#

It’s cool Bc paris don’t even. Play bad normally but in OT they just level up

earnest leaf
#

Also naga/onigod have gotten noticeably better

tropic herald
#

And kaan is trying to make a roty case for himself sooooo bad

#

His ana is fuxjung nasty

earnest leaf
#

He's like a European viol2t

#

just goes for big dick aggro plays

#

and wins

tropic herald
#

He’s like Viol2t but actually good at Ana too

earnest leaf
#

I wonder if viol2t's ana is actually tragic or if he just doesn't like playing her

#

too bad we'll never know since twilight is on the roster

tropic herald
#

Probably the first one turning into the second one

earnest leaf
#

I know it's ladder, but he's gotten rank 1 playing her as his most played, so he can't be that bad

balmy wolf
#

its twilight

earnest leaf
#

I meant for viol2t getting rank 1 off ana

#

Also speaking of viol2t, he looked 100x better on zen than his bapt

balmy wolf
#

i think viol2t likes really aggressive supports

#

ana is sorta like that but it isnt her strength

earnest leaf
#

ana is more setting things up with big nades and less taking it into your own hands to kill 6

balmy wolf
#

bap/zen both value doing as little healing as possible and doing more dmg instead

#

same goes with lucio if u wanna get into main supports

tropic herald
#

I want to see Paris v Dallas

People got false hopes off paris beating glads

when in reality glads threw hard

north relic
tropic herald
#

im going to be a paris believer for this stage

earnest leaf
#

I don't put much stock into week one games

#

some of them I do

#

like the glads/shock game

#

I think it showed glad's ability to have a high pace and beat an actual good team

#

And it showed shock's struggles in who they want to play

plush grail
tropic herald
#

nearly 3/4 of the season gone by and shock dont have a consistent starting lineup

earnest leaf
#

I think they have the dps/tank rotation down

#

they just don't have the support rotation down

barren quest
#

And they keep putting both flex supports on main support

earnest leaf
#

outlaws are just as lost on that front as shock

balmy wolf
#

it dont mean much, still have a good reg season record

#

so they dont have to worry about post playoffs

#

for mid tier teams they gotta step it up and get every win they get since play ins are brutal

someone making 300k or 400k is probs gesture and profit

think their buyout combine was 1 mill, so the salary is probs like 400k or something to keep them

overwatch league is the only overwatch league there is

#

@JacobWolf @TheJusticeDept @overwatchleague @DotEsports Seeing a lot of ELI5 on this, so here goes:

The salary cap (aka most a team can spend on ALL player salaries) is, in the eyes of the DOJ, "anticompetitive" and could constitute an antitrust since players have no bargaining power to change said cap. (1/2)

anti competative between teams

#

idk

sullen berry
#

The nature of the Ovwerwatch league who are rumoured to be anticompetitive are from the eyes of the Department or Justice, a body of the US Government

#

And as Miz says, they’re not doing anything illegal, it’s an investigation the DoJ is conducting to find out more information

earnest leaf
#

yea in the article it said it was a non-criminal investigation

willow tartan
#

i mean

sullen berry
# gusty rampart I'm also too stupid

Let’s say you have a prepay mobile data plan. Normally if you go over the data limit you don’t get cut from using all mobile data.
You just get charged direct to your account for every MB you use afterward

willow tartan
#

isnt it the jobs of the orgs to represent their player's needs to the OWL?

sullen berry
#

@gusty rampart now if that makes sense then hold onto that for a bit.

According to the article, Wolf says that each org has a soft salary cap of $1.6m they should put towards their team. If they go over that salary cap they don’t just stop signing players, say if the total player salaries of all their players is over the 1.6m example, a luxury tax is applied so the org has to pay even MORE money to keep them on so it’s at an even larger expense than they would like

gusty rampart
#

Ohh

sullen berry
#

So hear me out, back to the mobile data, do you think it’s anticompetitive to be Charged what, 25c per MB for going over your prepaid data?

#

It’s a shoddy comparison but that’s how I can best explain it

#

So for the pepegas in the back row:

#

Currently, it’s been speculated and confirmed by folks like former Spitfire GM Susie Kim that if teams overspend a certain amount on their roster, the Overwatch Committee gets really horny about it and wants an additional cut of your player signings and asks that you pay up a Luxury Tax to close the deal
Justice [US government, not the team] just want to know from staff/execs who work on OWL operations what kind of money is going around and if it indicates a potential breach of antitrust law

sullen berry
# next mesa salarycap is good long term

This is something they’re allowed to do, but it means orgs have less of an incentive to offer higher player salaries and currently limits their buying power

@next mesa you reckon that’s what happened to Striker to bring back ans? I’m starting to think it does

Anyways, here’s Overwatch
