[balmy wolf]

shu nuts

[ivory stag]

atl would have straight dominated that if it was hanamura

[novel owl]

yea shu thats insane

[leaden fable]

nano in 40 seconds pog

[candid gyro]

Hanamura bad map

[noble nexus]

Shu best player to touch the game

I've been saying it all along

[candid gyro]

Are there any 2cp maps that are good?

[noble nexus]

paris

[balmy wolf]

no

[noble nexus]

I mean

no

:)

[novel owl]

hanamura imo the best 2cp

🚶‍♂️

[tawdry hamlet]

pls do kai junkertown

[shadow dagger]

anubis is the best of them imo but they are all pretty bad

[tawdry hamlet]

[candid gyro]

Gladiators are the underdogs here, right?

[balmy wolf]

ye

[candid gyro]

Or are they roughly equal

[balmy wolf]

basically

atl wins rush

glads dive

[forest raven]

And rush is better rn

[balmy wolf]

so atl wins in map 5

[candid gyro]

Ah, yes, these words have meaning to me

[balmy wolf]

Not possible

[candid gyro]

I am a complete dunce who started playing again after like 3 years

[balmy wolf]

atl never wins map 5

[forest raven]

Reign has the worst map 5 record in the entire league

[balmy wolf]

ye

hurts

[candid gyro]

What are the differences between rush and dive?

[balmy wolf]

lol

[candid gyro]

I started playing again less than a month ago

Dont hurt me

[tropic herald]

ok so basically

rush has lucio

dive doesnt

thats the easiest distinction

[raw ermine]

most of the time

in general, rush has bap, lucio and rein within it, while dive has ana, brig, mercy, zen, and winston

[balmy wolf]

What is it about Atlanta that I dislike

Moth Lowkey needs to get to Hawaii before his old team just to prove he was the carry

[noble nexus]

[candid gyro]

[noble nexus]

that'd be amazing actually

thank fucking god they aren't playing mirror doom

[errant night]

THE WALL

[noble nexus]

[tawdry hamlet]

Probably a hot take but imo moth is the best all around main support of all time 🐱

[candid gyro]

hot damn that kill feed

[noble nexus]

I vibe with that take

[balmy wolf]

why didnt they do this at the start

[noble nexus]

he's had a down season but going from crusty to dpei will always be tough

kevster's walls have been insane

[errant night]

what a bomb

[tawdry hamlet]

Considering everyone on his team was a downgrade from s3 shock since it's literally s3 shock he'd look worse in general

[ivory stag]

bruh

[noble nexus]

oh yea 100%

[balmy wolf]

f

muze unhinged

[stuck radish]

shock should have saved their s3 roster for s4

[balmy wolf]

he no care

we never win map5

[noble nexus]

season 3 shock will probably still be the best team of all time for atleast a few seasons

[tawdry hamlet]

Like maybe if I spoke Korean I'd know more about Ijg was like a goated team leader but from what I hear from moth teammates he's goated

[errant night]

Im on the edge of my fucking seat holy shit

[noble nexus]

moth as an igl is almost unmatched

[fast tusk]

no

[errant night]

The kev walls are amazing

[fast tusk]

If David doesn't resign this tourney cycle I will actually shit myself, if gladiators had gotten Junkbuck they'd be cracked.

[keen abyss]

they played a pharah comp

[stuck radish]

philly has good players

[idle beacon]

flop like in flop?

[balmy wolf]

they lost to jjonak and a bunch of rookies

[willow tartan]

shanghai dropped a map to hangzhou though, proves that enough shy fucking can do it.

[noble nexus]

dallas don't have a shy tho

[willow tartan]

skill and strategy work but you can also just click heads

[candid gyro]

I can finally buy my ana skin

[balmy wolf]

but when is the dpei removal

[supple prism]

welp, i got 3 of the 4 correct

[willow tartan]

where is pine

[noble nexus]

visa hell iirc

[balmy wolf]

he probs wont even play this year

[willow tartan]

I didn't even save my pickem knockouts 😭

[supple prism]

[idle beacon]

you don't really think that ShDragons will give shy that much space again, next match? :>

[willow tartan]

dude imagine being signed in the preseason and not being able to play bc of covid all season

[stuck radish]

when shock wins against houston

[willow tartan]

All they needed to do to win was press Q.

[noble nexus]

they'll hopefully have him by grand final playoffs

[fast tusk]

atl pressed q first

but at that point I doubt they risk playing him

[forest raven]

A 40 minute 5 map series

[idle beacon]

who ain't playin cuz of covid? 😮

[balmy wolf]

[willow tartan]

poko

[idle beacon]

damn it 😦

[willow tartan]

he's still stuck in eu

[noble nexus]

also isn't hotba playing better than poko would be rn?

[idle beacon]

korean is such a damn fkn fast language. or is it only me? 😄

[willow tartan]

well he is because poko isn't playing at all...

[noble nexus]

ah

idk he'd probably be benched anyways

[tawdry hamlet]

This has confirmed one thing at least, that Atlanta is no longer a gate keeper for mid teams

[stuck radish]

remove pelican from atlanta

they get rolled by vancouver

[willow tartan]

chengdu and atlanta are top tier teams now guys

[noble nexus]

also proves that LA are alright until a map 5

[idle beacon]

hotba better dva than poko? 😮

[balmy wolf]

they go to a map 5 series with london

[noble nexus]

hotba on his super saiyan level up shit

[idle beacon]

danny lim speaks korean so fast. argh

[willow tartan]

actually

who do you guys think will win?

[balmy wolf]

with blase shax

[willow tartan]

I have my money on jinmu styling on atlanta

[stuck radish]

true

[balmy wolf]

win what

[tawdry hamlet]

I don't think you're giving them nearly enough credit lmao

[idle beacon]

win what?

[balmy wolf]

atl is gonna get destroyed

[willow tartan]

Chengdu vs Atlanta

[balmy wolf]

if thats what ur asking

[idle beacon]

chengdu

[stuck radish]

chengdu wins

[willow tartan]

that's what I'm thinking

[tawdry hamlet]

Idc if Atlanta gets destroyed but assuming they're only this far because of pelican is wild. Everyone has been playing great on Atlanta.

[idle beacon]

is danny on adderall?

[willow tartan]

nah bro Dallas only good because of fearless

[tawdry hamlet]

Like just because the skill gap between 1 and 234 is huge doesn't negate the good play from the 2 34 teams lmao

I just think at this rate they've made a tourney twice and are the only ones in na to do that besides Dallas so they should be given credit considering they rated like top 6 preseason

[idle beacon]

btw dallas fools. i dont know if they're that much stronger than atlanta blame atm

[willow tartan]

Atlanta is doing much better than anyone expected in the preseason

[tawdry hamlet]

Iris Masaa have been popping this year honestly

[raw ermine]

I am fucking obsessed with the top panel. Its so stupidly funny. Not even the family meme. just the top panel

[idle beacon]

i dont like atl because of their braggin additude.

[tawdry hamlet]

Masaa is actually a top 5 lucio tbh

[willow tartan]

ATL brags?

I don't really pay attention to social media

[idle beacon]

who says?

michael

[willow tartan]

do they like shittalk ppl on Twitter or some shit

[idle beacon]

dogman was a dumbfuq for exsample

[earnest leaf]

atl had dogman and people now forever call atl toxic

It's a braindead thing but eh

[willow tartan]

wasn't dogman asscheeks at the game

[tawdry hamlet]

Dogman was just trying to bring hype and excitement to a quiet ass thing lmao

[earnest leaf]

dogman was pretty mediocre

[tawdry hamlet]

Since after lans were over hype was dead

[idle beacon]

and a day ago they were totally pissin on london, on kingsrow

[earnest leaf]

that was barely anything

we need more spice in owl

but people become soys about any bit of banter or BM

[idle beacon]

is that so? let's shit on toxicity rules.

[tawdry hamlet]

Also dogman was probably at least top north american flex support for a time but there aren't many of those

[willow tartan]

so what do you guys think of Dallas being brought to map 5 by Washington of all teams?

[earnest leaf]

washington improved

but mag regressed back to his normal state

[willow tartan]

they really rebounded at the end

[tawdry hamlet]

Meanwhile Boston cries in Colourhex

[willow tartan]

I don't know man it's weird to call so many teams good

[idle beacon]

anyway. was this the last match of today?

[willow tartan]

or rather that so many teams did good this stage

yes

[tawdry hamlet]

Yeah that's the thing so many teams are good this year you can't really call them bad based on records alone in a way idk

Like Washington has struggled but their not bad

[willow tartan]

next match is Shanghai vs Atlanta

First match of Hawaii

[tawdry hamlet]

Like Florida isn't bad but they've sucked ass recently you know

[idle beacon]

oh atl is engaging without playing against dallas? interesting memeicus

[willow tartan]

no because it's top 2 teams of each region

[tawdry hamlet]

I wonder if Kuki will run out of Ketamine soon

Please

[willow tartan]

Chengdu vs Dallas, Shanghai vs Atlanta

[idle beacon]

ShD top2? aren't they 1st spot?

[forest raven]

Shanghai number one at this point

[willow tartan]

the number 1 seed fights the 2 seed from the other region

Dallas is 1 as well right?

[idle beacon]

ok

bad for atl :>

[forest raven]

Shanghai have 15 points

Dallas have 14

[idle beacon]

are them 4 casters rly standing next to eachother?

[forest raven]

No

[idle beacon]

so they're faking looking at eachother?

[forest raven]

Yeah

[willow tartan]

yes and no

I know that one of them said they have monitors where other people are supposed to be

[idle beacon]

thought so

would be totally arkward starring into nothing :>

[tawdry hamlet]

Custa when he looks the wrong direction 😭

[willow tartan]

just pretend to be talking to the other guy

[idle beacon]

tempozp was like looking to the chest/belly region when he was casting today. felt weird

[willow tartan]

did he?

[idle beacon]

ye

[willow tartan]

gonna have to rewatch that

[idle beacon]

shd match

[willow tartan]

maybe that's where his monitor is set up

[idle beacon]

from erlier today

or yday

[tawdry hamlet]

If best of the day isn't reinforce pulling a custa and looking the wrong way

[idle beacon]

so they're all at home?

if so, is custa locking his cat away? 😄 (or whoever caster it was)

[tawdry hamlet]

What the fuck I went to refresh my YouTube and joined a random vc because there was water on my phone screen so it pressed a diff server and I ended up in an asmr voice chat and it scared the hell out of me

[willow tartan]

why, was there people?

[idle beacon]

a water drop pressed ?

[tawdry hamlet]

There was like 30 people licking noises in my ear 👂

[idle beacon]

😮

[tawdry hamlet]

Water can often activate buttons on touch displays for some reason

[willow tartan]

Go back and ask who they think is gonna win the Summer Showdown.

[idle beacon]

ShD will win

come on, man

[willow tartan]

I mean obviously...

[tawdry hamlet]

I exited and now I am looking for it

[idle beacon]

yt has a history list

[forest raven]

It came Rome, Glads lost 3-2, and Dallas and Shanghai are in the playoffs again

Life is good

[tawdry hamlet]

Your team still didn't make knockouts 🤥

[forest raven]

And?

[willow tartan]

Gonna get COVID vaccine.

[forest raven]

Your words mean nothing

[willow tartan]

Life is (good?)

[tawdry hamlet]

How can life be good? Fake fan smh my head

[forest raven]

[idle beacon]

whats your team?

shaking my head my head?

[forest raven]

I've been a Shock fan since 2018

[tawdry hamlet]

[willow tartan]

why

[idle beacon]

shock. oh

yea

[tawdry hamlet]

I wish I had old skins 😭

[idle beacon]

where they at 😒

[tawdry hamlet]

But I don't have McDonald's skins

[willow tartan]

old mayhem skins...

[tropic herald]

Draw 🤝 Empathy
not bandwagons of bandwagon teams

[forest raven]

🤝

[willow tartan]

what is a bandwagon team?

[tawdry hamlet]

Emp and I both had Atlanta Washington 😭

[willow tartan]

Dallas fuel?

[idle beacon]

LOL

reinforce

[forest raven]

Bandwagoning is when you start supporting a team just because they're winning

And when they're no longer winning you move on to the next team that's winning

[idle beacon]

been a shd fan since s1. nobody can shittalk me down on that 😛

[earnest leaf]

I don't really follow one team hardcore

I like shock a tad bit more than other teams, but that's more because I like super

[tropic herald]

i was so close

[willow tartan]

I think that's just supporting competition

[tropic herald]

then fuel buff came in map 5

[earnest leaf]

I finally got my knockouts proper

[willow tartan]

not actually supporting any team

[earnest leaf]

If I didn't fuck up apac I would have gotten 4/4

but 3/4 is good

[tropic herald]

justice looked so good for like every map except the last one

[willow tartan]

choke energy

[earnest leaf]

Mag regressed back to his normal monkey otp self

[tropic herald]

mag was hitting some insane fucking shatters

[willow tartan]

magtd

[earnest leaf]

he was big dicking fearless for a bit

[tropic herald]

the fact they got held on kings row is beyond me

[earnest leaf]

then fearless said

[tawdry hamlet]

https://youtube.com/clip/UgyfIfJawpnSSgC_tm54AaABCQ

[willow tartan]

when will we get a stage with Washington, Glads, Shock or Houston

[earnest leaf]

never

because washington likes to suck randomly

[tropic herald]

justice and glads i could see

[earnest leaf]

shock likes to throw important games

[willow tartan]

I've already given up on Philly making countdown cup

[tropic herald]

but shock and houston

[idle beacon]

@tawdry hamletso .. why was he looking to his right when his monitor should be on his left? 😄

[earnest leaf]

and houston likes to one trick comps then forget how to swap

and glads have dpei

[willow tartan]

Seoul might make it, unlikely though

[tawdry hamlet]

This was supposed to be the year we got fusion dragons Dallas shock 😭 😭

[tropic herald]

fusion

im so sad imagine if florida got mag

[willow tartan]

Fusion Dragons Fuel Shock is basically this year's all star team

[idle beacon]

btw onstage and covid .. . when is ow2 coming out? when the covid crap has settled down and teams can play on stage again?

[willow tartan]

Shanghai had a homestand

Dallas did

Hangzhou did

[tropic herald]

ow2 drops when it drops, we have no idea

[willow tartan]

ow2 will drop when they finish the game

they're not gonna hold back the drop for covid to be over

[idle beacon]

well 2022 is still 6 months ahaid. and they've been workin on it since when?

2018?

[tropic herald]

im surprised their havent been more homestands now that america has decided covid doesnt exist anymore but i can also see how setting one up takes so much work

[candid gyro]

When's the next stream?

[willow tartan]

next week

[idle beacon]

covid crap won't be over any time soon

[tropic herald]

thursday

like 9pm est

[tawdry hamlet]

Is Danny gonna go to Hawaii again hmm

[idle beacon]

@candid gyrois that your kitten?

[earnest leaf]

Because in the more popular places it's still fucked

like california

We're waiting on florida/california/texas to stop fucking around

[willow tartan]

I want a Paris homestand

[candid gyro]

Nah, just really like the picture

[tawdry hamlet]

Hard to get more popular than Houston or Dallas they are in the top ten biggest cities in the country

[willow tartan]

That shit would get like 20k people

[idle beacon]

@candid gyrovery cute kitten

[willow tartan]

Texas decides covid no longer exists, other states still do think it exists

[idle beacon]

cats .. best pets ever

[tawdry hamlet]

Never forgetti

[tropic herald]

newyork la and philly are all massive cities

[idle beacon]

[willow tartan]

Shanghai Atlanta rematch

I like it

[earnest leaf]

also

I want sym gone next stage

please fucking ban her

PLEASE

[tropic herald]

they should nerf her

[idle beacon]

@earnest leafwhy is that?

[willow tartan]

For sure she's getting banned for hero pools

[tropic herald]

sym op

[willow tartan]

Like most played

[stuck radish]

sym should get banned from actual ow too

[idle beacon]

she's not

[earnest leaf]

does way too much damage

[stuck radish]

fuck that hero

[earnest leaf]

tp is boring to watch

wall charges too fast

[idle beacon]

it's a lil zarya

[tropic herald]

i played sym today and got an ult 30s into the game

[earnest leaf]

turrets slow way too much

[willow tartan]

Which tank do you think will get banned?

[earnest leaf]

winston or dva

[tawdry hamlet]

Pray it's ball lmao

[stuck radish]

dva

[tropic herald]

remove turret slow and lower sym hp and turret hp

[willow tartan]

tbh yeah probably DVa

[tropic herald]

i think a dva ban seems likely

[willow tartan]

sym and mei ban?

two most popular dps

[idle beacon]

naw ... dva should be banned. damn mecha op

[stuck radish]

because we love watching zarya comps RIGHT

[tropic herald]

i want to see a lucio ban, i swear i dont want to watch rush

[forest raven]

You want double shield?

[willow tartan]

and for supports I think Lucio Bap

[forest raven]

That's what NA will play

[willow tartan]

are the most played

[earnest leaf]

ban brig

[idle beacon]

guys why the huge whine all of a sudden

[tropic herald]

ds poke is more interesting imo than another moira reaper rush

[idle beacon]

sym and mei haven't been altered in ages.

[forest raven]

Oh

Moira rush

Yeah agree

[idle beacon]

and now you whine? 😄

[stuck radish]

ive been whining about sym for ages

[tropic herald]

sym has been dumb annoying forever

[willow tartan]

yes because OTHER heroes have been altered

a hero can become stronger even if they dont change

[tropic herald]

just never been meta bc owl players werenot comfortable

[earnest leaf]

Sym has been closet busted for a while

[forest raven]

super's massive brain wins again

[earnest leaf]

No wonder these mf shitters kept hitting t500 on her in ladder

[willow tartan]

just like how no one plays pharah in OWL

[stuck radish]

shes the worst hero in the game according to forums

[forest raven]

Man's been saying symm and torb have been lowkey busted for months

[willow tartan]

no that would be dva

[earnest leaf]

eh widow still ruins the game 100x more

[willow tartan]

the forums really hate dva

[idle beacon]

who cares about the forums?

[stuck radish]

the forum sym mains say sym is worse than bastion by a long shot

[earnest leaf]

I've been saying torb is underrated for like a year

[stuck radish]

and sym mains make up like half the forums

so yea

[earnest leaf]

Can probably go back in this discord of me saying torb is underrated

[idle beacon]

nanoblade .. most annoying .. still

[willow tartan]

sym mains asking for a skin weirdchamp

[earnest leaf]

nano blade is honestly pretty boring too

it either kills 5 or does nothing

[tepid ibex]

We haven’t had an event legendary in nearly 3 years

Not really weird to ask for a skin

[idle beacon]

ashe is also damn strong

[willow tartan]

fuck nanoblade bro

dude i hate it in comp when you start getting ult cycled

and you can barely do anything about it in soloq

and you know youre going to lose but still have to play

[idle beacon]

ult cycled

:>

[willow tartan]

nanoblade is one of those "FUCK YOU" ults

[idle beacon]

they should nerf sym, yea. the energy rate. how fast she increases her dmg

1st version of sym was even more annoying. autoaim

[willow tartan]

imagine sym beam now with autolock

[rain widget]

Stuff of nightmares

[idle beacon]

it's a simple copy of the lightning gun, guys

[willow tartan]

Third time going to Hawaii but I cannot help but think that it’s such a huge disadvantage to West. We lose a day from travel, have to deal with jetlag, have early morning content shoots, and next thing we know we have to compete without practice.

kinda true

[willow tartan]

don't the East have to play at like 6 am though?

imagine getting gamers up at 6 lolol

[forest raven]

Chengdu's game starts at 10:30am their time @willow tartan

[willow tartan]

oo

idk then I just remember someone from Shanghai camp mentioned how they had to wake up and scrim earlier than usual for hawaii

[forest raven]

I mean I can see them doing a 2 hour scrim block before the games

[willow tartan]

tbf I'm just waiting until it's safe to fly NA teams to Korea for LANs

[forest raven]

[earnest leaf]

now that I look back at it

NA was hard at a disadvantage for the finals last season

had to fly to korea, sit in quarantine for 14 days scrimming off laptops

[willow tartan]

isn't more time to settle good?

wait was it LAN or was it just for low ping

because Seoul would've been the only team in KR right?

[earnest leaf]

was low ping for finals

But I mean seeing what they had to eat during quarantine

Probably wasn't that fun

also complete isolation from your teammates

can't meet in person to talk about things, everything via discord

[devout path]

???

Why

[earnest leaf]

wym

[devout path]

Could they not quarantine and live together

[earnest leaf]

No they all had to be in separate rooms

[balmy wolf]

If I was the NA teams I would’ve just flown immediately. Next day. Then Scrimm APAC teams

[earnest leaf]

Still a 6+ hour flight for most teams in NA

La with the shortest of 5 1/2 hours

to hawaii at least

[balmy wolf]

Getting over that jet lag as fast as possible has to be the priority

ggs @ParisEternal @DallasFuel Due to having great teamwork, our team was fortunate enough to make it to the Knockouts. Even if we ended up losing the match with Dallas fuel, I realized how much I love the game I do and would like to improve my playing so badly.. (1/2)

Main support players are built differently

[gusty rampart]

Dallas Fuel going to Hawaii every month

Jealousy within me

[balmy wolf]

ok it appears i was wrong

atl wont get smoked by chengdu first

but shanghai instead

looks like they're just trying to make shanghai vs dallas happen again

[forest raven]

That's just how it goes when they're the number 1 seed from both regions

[balmy wolf]

Chengdu will get rolled by Atlanta lmao

[balmy wolf]

AHAHAHHAHHA

Chengdu are garbage

Well not garbage but average. Atlanta is just better

[forest raven]

APAC doubters

[abstract nova]

Atl and Dallas won huh... :/

[earnest leaf]

I am an apac doubter

but a shd believer

[abstract nova]

Everyone think Shd will win so I hope they don't

[balmy wolf]

I doubt all of Apac but dragons

[tepid ibex]

APAC doubters

[balmy wolf]

😴

atl is going to hawaii just to get railed

[balmy wolf]

what makes you think this

u did watch the chendgu vs philly match right

yeah and philly are shit

you watched atlanta play like a lot of games right?

if chengdu was vs glads

what would the score be

they wouldnt of struggled like atl did

Glads would beat chengdu 3-1

honestly it doesn't even matter bc atl loses to shanghai first

id have to see how chengdu does vs dallas

You dont have to see anything

Dallas is going to sweep them

dallas is gonna beat them regardless but i doubt its gonna be a sweep

not with the way they've been looking

But they haven’t beaten anyone good or looked consistent all season

Honest score will be 3-1

but I bet you Atlanta beats them as well

[tawdry hamlet]

Jinmu pharah could maybe play a role with no hitscan

Wait a minute

Is Hawaii close enough to Korea for Dallas to play pine?

[mortal abyss]

I’d assume so since the teams based in Korea play from there

(In final 4)

[tawdry hamlet]

Also leave has been fucking so a surprise chengdu run possible

I want Chengdu to get a good hitscan and lige so badly

Leave is amazing but he's flex we need another hitscan jimmy taro not getting it done 😭

Off tank number one priority tho

[bronze turtle]

lol gladiators keep losing right at the end

[balmy wolf]

David Pei

[willow tartan]

I can see chengdu beating atlanta in the loser's

fighting for 3rd place

[balmy wolf]

apac still trash

4th place

as always

i cant see atl or dal winning against dragons tho

[noble nexus]

Valiant (tier break) (tier break) Shanghai

[devout path]

Avoided (tier break) (tier break) valiant

Facts my bad

[little tusk]

Honestly im happy dallas justice was 3-2

Cuz paris played pretty close against justice as well

[willow tartan]

justice are doing not as shit yo

kinda like that

hope they keep it up

[little tusk]

And Paris is pretty good as well

[north relic]

Justice definitely played better against Dallas than against Paris

[forest raven]

No custa hot tub

i couldn’t even watch the games, was high asf

i hate watching highlights too, they’re too short and cut off too many commentaries

aye yo glads to hawaiii---oh wait nvm

lmao

[abstract nova]

then just watch the full games on the owl yt?

[hot onyx]

Alright

Who has the best chances of making it to Hawaii in the Summer Showdown

Fusion

Shock

Or Charge

[noble nexus]

This is the summer showdown

[abstract nova]

You mean countdown cio

cup

[hot onyx]

Fuck yeah sorry

[noble nexus]

Shock probably have the best chance

[hot onyx]

Brain auto typed Summer Showdown

[noble nexus]

Charge are hot garbage

[abstract nova]

Idk tbh

[hot onyx]

Sleeping on Charge and the Cr0ng deadlift

Couldn’t be me

[noble nexus]

Cr0ng can’t carry hard enough

Neither can Choi

Kariv mandu and rio are hot garbage

[hot onyx]

Remember when Mandu was good on O2 Blast

[abstract nova]

I hope Shock does well, If they haven't figured things out by the start of countdown cup, I highly doubt they'll make the final playoffs

[noble nexus]

Remember that one game where kariv was good

[hot onyx]

Guess who else was decent on 02 Blast

[noble nexus]

And that still gets him overrated

[worthy tinsel]

yeah nyxl need new main tank

yakpungs ball is fine but everything else is meh

now imagine this nyxl team but with mano

they would be so much better

[hot onyx]

Yakpung isn’t even a good ball

I watched him vs Fusion and vs Dragons and the amount of times he went too far or was out of position away from the team was shocking

The difference being that with Dragons being a team that isn’t bottom 5 they capitalised on Yakpungs mistakes and punished him for them

[trail perch]

That’s cause Choi’s washed

[noble nexus]

You’re talking about the wrong Choi

Why tf would I talk about choihyobin when talking about why the charge is booty cheeks at the game

[next mesa]

ayoo what did I miss

[raw ermine]

miss from what?

[tacit skiff]

I'm never going to stop being disappointed

At least last season, being the literal worst in the league, we knew our place
