remote siren

Glads lost

balmy wolf
#

they will

noble nexus
#

if they figure out what changing comps is

#

lmfao

remote siren
#

But justice lost even harder

mortal cipher
#

they most likely will beat boston

north relic
#

justice goes againist eternal and then reign

noble nexus
#

they're being coached by dpei it's not certain

north relic
#

justice already got rolled by reign

mortal cipher
#

yeah

balmy wolf
#

so glads have to beat dallas to go to hawaii

north relic
#

yep

balmy wolf
#

ggs go next

maybe countdown cup

north relic
#

glads dont run into dallas challenge (impossible)

tawdry hamlet

errant night

weak bolt

glads were first seed last tourney and got 4 and 5th seeds

errant night
#

Waiit, isnt it glads vs boston then winner vs atl?

north relic
#

#

cause last tourney 1st seed goes againist 4th and 5th

wintry kraken

Against the gods

Dragons and fuel get stronger in the playoffs

mortal cipher
#

yeah

#

oh

#

i mean atl are moving on thp

remote siren

#

Yeah they get in

mortal cipher
#

ivory stag
#

LOL GLADS

mortal cipher

shanghai and seoul

remote siren
#

shanghai and chengdu

#

I dont trust seoul

#

mortal cipher
#

yet chengdu lost to seoul multiple times

remote siren
#

never in the playoffs

mortal cipher
#

true

#

regardless agaisnt shanghai its a rip

remote siren
#

Only dallas can beat them

mortal cipher
#

yeah

wintry kraken
#

i am actually loving how professional the desk is when talking to others, looking towards them and not in the monitor at front

remote siren
#

and dallas isnt looking super strong like in june

mortal cipher
#

dallas are the only one to have any chance

tawdry hamlet
#

I have Washington Atlanta nyxl Shanghai as my knockouts this month lmao gotta go bold trollformation

remote siren
#

That isnt possivle

mortal cipher

feral zodiac
#

If atlanta were as good on dive as they are on rush the league would be a top 3 instead of top 2

mortal cipher
#

win - win

feral zodiac
#

But they aren't

mortal cipher
#

yeha

remote siren
#

@feral zodiac ???????

#

top 3 man?

feral zodiac
#

Yes

remote siren
#

They got 3 0 by shanghai

#

Exposed by dallas

mortal cipher
#

oh most defo

tawdry hamlet
#

How is that relevant those are top 2

mortal cipher
#

dallas are looking shaky so im not sure

remote siren
#

Top 3 means that atlanta is on the same teir

feral zodiac
#

Did you even read what I said

remote siren
#

you said the leaue would be a top 3

mortal cipher
#

but hopefully its another tight match

remote siren
#

instead of a top 2

feral zodiac
#

I said that if atlanta were as good on dive as they are on rush the league would be a top 3 instead of a top 2

remote siren
#

ur implying that atlanta would become on the tier as dragons and fuel by saying tat

tawdry hamlet
#

jamcatrave yes

remote siren
#

atlanta are already a top 3 team

#

by saying the league would be a top 3

feral zodiac
#

If they could play dive as well as they play rush, yes the league would be a top 3

#

There is no top 3

#

There is a top 2

#

And then a bunch of evenly matched teams

remote siren
#

If they could play dive as well as they play rush

#

they would be worse dallas

#

They would be a shittier dallas

feral zodiac
#

They would be almost on par with dallas

remote siren
#

Still not in the same tier

#

you cant win one map against besides from nyxl and suddenly make the leaue a top 3

feral zodiac
#

What

remote siren
#

if reign pushed dragons

#

to 5

#

and then they could rush and dive at the same level

feral zodiac
#

What are you on about

remote siren
#

what im saying

#

is that the gap between the god tier teams and everyone else is so massiv

#

that being able to play dive as well as rush would not change anything because that isnt the main issue

#

shanghai cant match dallas on winston or rein so they play ball and orisa

#

Reign can match dallas on rein

#

and have a better orisa comp

#

You see what im saying?

feral zodiac
#

Not really

remote siren
#

Let me break this down

#

Reign suck so much, that even if they could play dive at a similar level as their rush, that changes nothing

#

The only version of rush that anyone goes is sym rush

#

and the best sym rush team in the world?

#

even their double shield would not last against dallas dive

mortal cipher
#

yeah

#

they did the same in jj as well

#

yeah

#

not many can say theyve done it twice either

remote siren
#

EVery team besides dallas and shanghai

#

consumes feces

mortal cipher
#

yeah

remote siren
#

You cant even beat a dallas figuring out the meta

mortal cipher
#

i mean only dallas have dont hawaii twice

remote siren
#

with gator having the game of his lide

#

@mortal cipher and shanghai

mortal cipher
remote siren
#

I mean like the tourney

mortal cipher

remote siren

mortal cipher

#

I can get the VODs where FRD actually looked good against top teams

#

That one in particular against the shock is beyond me how they did it

Gator basically made his debut here and I think this match alone is the reason why he’s still on the roster

balmy wolf
#

The glads are a mess. So much talent and they're so bad

upper niche
#

Oh come on, apart from Shanghai there are no teams that have been consistently decent this season. Hell, even Shanghai have had their issues.

next mesa
#

Fuel

upper niche
#

No, not even. They're 9-3. That's a 25% loss rate.

balmy wolf
#

they have a first and second place tournament finish just like shanghai

upper niche
#

Houston and SanFran have thes ame number of losses.

#

Yeah, but they're still dropping matches they shouldn't.

balmy wolf
#

true i guess

#

i think fuel and shanghai have been separated from the rest of the field, but they haven't been outright dominant. theyve shown weakness

upper niche
#

I don't disagree they're a top team - but basically every team have been dropping matches they shouldn't this season, and you have Boston, Atlanta, Paris, Toronto and Washington being just complete wildcards.

balmy wolf
#

Washington and Glads are such disappointments to me this year.

upper niche
#

The only teams who have been truly consistent are London, Vancouver and LA Valiant.

balmy wolf
#

lol

earnest leaf
#

Dallas has been consistent

#

They started slow and are pretty handily winning most matches

upper niche
#

We just covered this: Dallas have dropped 3 matches they shouldn't have, that's not consistent.

balmy wolf
#

Not like last year where the shock and dragons were just untouchable

next mesa
#

Doesn't mean fuel is inconsistent

balmy wolf
#

no-one came within 2 maps of them

earnest leaf
#

Consistent doesn't mean 3-0 pubstomps and never losing ever

#

going by this logic, shock was inconsistent last season

upper niche
#

DAL: 3-2 to FLM twice, who are above only LDN and VAN (weeks 8 and 12)

earnest leaf
#

Your definition of consistency is way too strict I guess

upper niche
#

How is it 'consistent' when a team loses 3-2 to a team then wins 3-1 to the same team two weeks later? πŸ˜„

earnest leaf
#

They consistently have performed at the top for practically the entire season

upper niche
#

Yeah, but they're not a stand-out, and that was the original statement.

earnest leaf
#

they've won a stage and went the distance in the second one

#

????

upper niche
#

Consistently decent in that regard. There's a lot of teams who have been 'consistent' if you count 'just kinda being up there'.

earnest leaf
#

how is this inconsistent

upper niche
#

Pft, let's not even bother with the ridiculous tournament/qualifier system.

earnest leaf
#

this is inconsistent

upper niche
#

Just because they made the tournament finals in a system where you play four matches to qualify and may end up with either an easy or hard run just to merely qualify.

#

What team is that even showing?

next mesa
#

Wtf

earnest leaf
#

the second picture is shock

#

an inconsistent team this season

upper niche
#

ah, I was wondering how Dallas could play Dallas πŸ˜„

green dust

london is consistent

consistent in losing, but its still consistency

shd is inconsistent too then by your logic

Both Dallas and Shanghai have only lost 4 games this season

No wait

Shanghai's lost 5

#

But 3 were in stage playoffs

willow tartan

dallas is 9-3

#

shanghai is 10-2

earnest leaf
#

Oh I know shd is consistent

#

I'm just showing that the logic the guy had doesn't work out that well

willow tartan
#

consistent except when they get swept by a random apac team each stage

#

still waiting for that to happen...

devout path
#

Nyxl hehe

willow tartan
#

The most consistent team in the League is the Valiant, by the way.

If NYXL sweeps Shanghai I'll paypal a guy I know who's a big NYXL simp $50

balmy wolf
#

i kinda want to see it

plush grail
tired zodiac
#

am i missing smtn why is shock not playing?

forest raven
#

They didn't qualify

upper niche
#

it's this qualifcation system where you only have 4 matches every 3 weeks. You only need to end up losing 1 match a lot of the time to not make it so it's easy for a team to get screwed by somethign as simple as just them happening to play two hard teams in that series.

forest raven
#

I mean shock lost two lmao

upper niche
#

HOU d SFS 3-1, SFS d PAR 3-0, GLA d SFS 3-2 and SFS d LDN 3-2

#

I mean.. the score line vs LDN is inexcusable but come on, they got both GLA and HOU in the same stage, AND paris who have been looking strong.

#

Last series they beat DAL, TOR both 3-1 and VAN 3-0, plus WAS 3-2... and look at why they didnt make it rhoguth

forest raven
#

Brother if they're not good enough they're not good enough. Playing in week 1 you could probably argue is a disadvantage because you can get prep diffed by teams that didn't play week 1, but by the time knockouts are being played every team has played and the meta begins to be realised. It's on Shock for getting rolled by Atlanta

willow tartan
#

you do know that it's qualify to the knockouts

#

what difference does it make that even if they qualify they'd still lose to Houston or Glads again

upper niche
#

they didnt even make the knockouts

#

May was FLM and DAL

#

June was ATL and DAL

earnest leaf
#

I do wish we had 6 qualifier matches

#

and maybe double elim knockouts

#

4 is just way too few

upper niche
#

ATL went 3-1 in the June Joust qualifiers but cos SFS lost that one match, didn't even make it though - so ATL get bonus points for the full season as a result.

#

It's just an all round shit system.

#

It basically means that the final qualifier for the tourneys is in some ways more important than any of the tourney bracket matches in terms of season standings.

willow tartan
#

The winner of the knockouts is the final four

upper niche
#

yeah sorry, the brackets/tourney

#

either way. it's an idiotic system and once again proof that americans can't run leagues.

willow tartan
upper niche
#

There would be no harm in just making the stages 4 weeks instead of 3, or having Thursday matches again.

earnest leaf
#

I think the system in place is good

#

Just needs to be expanded upon more

willow tartan
#

Yes I want more OW games

#

more dragons games per stage pls

#

πŸ™

upper niche
#

In the whole season this year, teams play 16 matches, plus finals. Even if they were to play cross-region, they wouldn't play all teams

willow tartan
#

nah cross region impossible

tired zodiac
#

so prob no 3 peat

earnest leaf
#

damn covid ruining everything

upper niche
#

They've got a solution for doing it in the finals. They could concievably do it in the regular season - send 3 NA teams to hawaii once per tournament. That's all 12 who go to NA, and duing that week they play four APAC teams.

#

Do it twice and they could play all 8 APAC teams at least once in the season.

What position do you think is most lacking in the league

main support

feral zodiac

I think it is between main tank and main supp

yeah

we need more better main supports

we got a decent amount of rookie main tanks this year

Idc how much Fusion has fallen off

willow tartan
#

it's like placebo

sullen berry
#

Whatever he's doing wrong, he doesn't know it

hot onyx
#

Not even Valiant should lose to a team with Yakpung

willow tartan
#

But I still think it should be restricted because

#

don't use shit you don't need

#

you can develop addictions

#

CSGO TOs do drug tests. OWL should too

feral zodiac
#

I thought it functioned like caffeine, prevents you from getting tired

willow tartan
#

so should we ban caffeine from eSports?

feral zodiac
#

But to a greater extent

#

No

hot onyx
#

Don’t take this advice, snorting G-Fuel enhances gaming performance

willow tartan
#

Adderall is to treat medical conditions

#

If you're just taking it just to take it at best nothing happens and at worst it'll harm your health

feral zodiac
hot onyx
#

G-Fuel enhances gaming performance, Faze Clan told me so

feral zodiac
#

I think we should just get better gaming chairs

willow tartan
#

Unironically yes

hot onyx
#

Better gaming chair will turn someone like Carpe into someone like Dalton

willow tartan
#

Good gaming chair = more comfortable for longer periods of times = less susceptible to injury

#

xzi back injuries Sadge

#

didn't have a good enough gaming chair

abstract nova
#

oof

#

good gaming chair=pro player

I think back injuries come down to posture as well

False my gaming chair is a dining chair

And i am professional game man

that's the best gaming chair

willow tartan
#

yeah but eSports players play like 10+ hours a day

80 hour work weeks bro

10 hours + 7 days = 80

what do you think players do after they finish scrimming

that's right, play more

Do something productive

I'm a season 1 nyxl and shanghai fan

sullen berry

the original New York and LA valiant were so dominant back when there were only 12 teams

feral zodiac

My how times change for these two teams

remote siren

That was a different roster

#

nyxl was always a top team for 3 years

sullen berry
#

point being from DoA's perpective then and now, it's staggering how he's talking about the same org

hot onyx
#

Think about how he feels about Shanghai

willow tartan
#

shanghai does a little trolling

sullen berry
#

2018 DoA with monte: New York is sandbagging since they don't have much to lose... Shanghai's Diya is amazing despite very little success
2021 DoA with ZP: Shanghai Dragons need to get home early and party after a good homestand... NYXL getting swept 3-0

hot onyx
#

Ok New York is boring me now and i’m hungry

forest raven
#

I'm praying for Chengdu

sullen berry
#

I'm a changed man

#

I want to see seoul burn the big blue

hot onyx
#

Not even the 4-0 curse is enough to cause a team as bad as NYXL to take a map

Shanghai does a little bit more trolling

She got her shield cd buffed two months after she was released, and then her shield buffed again three months later

#

That's when she started being played

willow tartan
#

what about when ashe was released? she was ass up until they fixed her shitty reload

feral zodiac

She started being played because goats died, not because she got buffed

tacit skiff

climbed up to 3400 on post rework Brig
I wish I still had that kinda win luck

yeah but that didnt mean that she was OP on launch

Orisa was good long before goats existed

willow tartan

at least i didnt think so

forest raven
#

Orisa was good before brig came out

feral zodiac
#

As long as her pull was 8 meters she was busted

if your team's Orisa can farm supercharger, then she's kinda busted

If release orisa came out today she'd be played immediately

Orisa wouldn't exist if she was released today
People would complain that supercharger and pull are broken abilities
and she'd be nerfed into oblivion

if anything
I think Orisa should start throwing out sym shields

Remember when symm had a sigma shield as an ability
