atlanta can always qualify in through the play ins either way

balmy wolf
#

sure

sullen berry
#

Achilios just made a quick reference to him saying someone from SF Shock has a similar massive crosshair to F4Q Zunba

#

That's Valorant KR for you

balmy wolf
#

but why are Hawaii wins useless

#

if they dont make up for regular season games

#

its makes no sense

willow tartan
#

bro i dont know all i know is shanghai has twice the amount of points of anyone else in the league

#

i assumed that the points were for tiebreakers and shit

cursive plover
#

Shanghai just needs to get their win and let others have fun too

willow tartan
#

like even if youve lost more regular season matches

cursive plover
#

APAC is so sad looking when shd dominates

willow tartan
#

you could still be placed higher if u have more points

balmy wolf
#

sure but they should count map diff after points

#

and not wins after points

#

a point in Hawaii should be equal with a regular win

forest raven
#

Atlanta didn't win a game in Hawaii lol

#

Series win = 1 league point

willow tartan
#

nah hes talking about june joust

#

3rd place so they got 1 point

forest raven
#

Yeah Atlanta won 1 game

#

So they got 1 point

willow tartan
#

tournanment games are counted in the regular season standings?

#

because the map standings dont reflect that

forest raven
#

Tournament playoffs give you extra league points if you win, but only league points

#

Regular season series wins and map diff is not changed by tournament results

willow tartan
#

mm ok

#

yeah so if atlanta and wj both had the same map wins

#

atlanta would be placed before them if they had a league point from tournament

forest raven
#

Yeah

#

Atlanta and Washington have the same amount of points because Atlanta won against NYXL but have one less dub in the regular season

balmy wolf
#

not map wins

forest raven
#

Yeah not map wins, series wins

#

It goes league points > series wins > map diff > head to head

balmy wolf
#

regular wins count more

#

and I don't understand why

forest raven
#

Wdym regular wins count more

balmy wolf
#

cause wins and points are basically the same

willow tartan
#

cause regular wins give you points + map diff

balmy wolf
#

more than map diff

forest raven
balmy wolf
#

why count wins if we have points for that

willow tartan
#

cuz getting league points is not winning

balmy wolf
#

it is?

forest raven
#

If Chengdu won the summer showdown they'd be above Seoul even with two more losses in the regular season

balmy wolf
#

u have to win 2 or 3 games to get 1 point lmao

forest raven
#

?

willow tartan
#

atlanta has less match wins so thats why theyre below washington

forest raven
#

You're talking about knockouts?

#

Atlanta's below Washington because they have less series wins

willow tartan
#

yes

balmy wolf
#

yeah

#

and that's dumb

forest raven
#

How

willow tartan
#

if they had beat dallas they would be above washington and glads

cursive plover
#

What makes it dumb? It's logical.

balmy wolf
#

it's not

forest raven
#

Maybe Atlanta shouldn't have lost to Toronto in the May Melee

willow tartan
#

hes saying that match wins in tournament should be worth more than regular season match wins

balmy wolf
#

Hawaii games shouldn't be worth less

forest raven
#

???

#

They're not

balmy wolf
#

same worth

cursive plover
#

Atlanta didn't simply win

forest raven
#

Because they're bonus wins

#

If you lose in Hawaii it doesn't negatively affect your season standings at all

#

It's either neutral if you lose twice or positive

willow tartan
#

trueing

balmy wolf
#

but that's what u qualify for

#

I just want points to matter

forest raven
#

You qualify for the chance to get bonus wins

#

And they do

willow tartan
#

they matter for the end of season playoffs

balmy wolf
#

where does the bonus win help u

#

if it below the other teams anywazs

#

ur*

willow tartan
#

since fuel has extra league points, shock could go 4-0 and win the countdown cup and fuel would still be in the playoffs

#

without those points they would've had to play in the play ins

balmy wolf
#

but if Dallas and shock had the same amount of points

#

shock would be in front

willow tartan
#

and the reason that's not the case is because of the

balmy wolf
#

even if they had a worse map diff

willow tartan
#

bonus league points

forest raven
#

If Shock had the same amount of points it would have been because they won one of the tournaments lol

balmy wolf
willow tartan
#

i have no idea what youre trying to say

balmy wolf
#

draw bro

forest raven
#

This is going around in circles

#

I'm out

balmy wolf
#

I'm speaking theoretically

#

can u read

cursive plover
#

I'm guessing what you're trying to say is that you want tournaments to add to map diff so tiebreakers can be solved with them?

#

But I'm not sure so uh

balmy wolf
willow tartan
#

because they have more wins

balmy wolf
#

yeah

#

and that's bs

willow tartan
#

you want the extra league point to count as a win

balmy wolf
#

basically

#

just count points > map diff

#

instead of points > wins > map diff

willow tartan
#

well either way theyd still be in front no?

#

cause you dont get map diff in tournament matches

#

so with one more regular season win that's at least +1 map differential

#

right?

#

unless the team went like

#

3-2 4 times vs going 9-3

balmy wolf
#

here

#

Atlanta and Washington

#

have the same points

#

and Atlanta has a better map diff

#

but they are below washinghton

#

and it's not a bug

plush grail
#

Atlanta just sucks

forest raven
#

TRUE

balmy wolf
tawdry hamlet
#

Draw you're not allowed to say a team sucks when both your teams are top teams lmaoo aren't you a shock Shanghai fan

#

Of course every other team sucks it's Shanghai sadgeCry

forest raven
#

I'm not a Shanghai fan

#

I was cheering for Chengdu in the tournament

tawdry hamlet
#

😭

#

Now if only hz could beat new York with the clear roster advantage they possess

#

They literally have so much wasted talent rn

forest raven
#

Spark OMEGALUL

#

Trash

tawdry hamlet
#

The org is having a hard time comitting lmao

#

Buys multi million dollar house and 12 man roster

#

Doesn't buy coaches

#

Ok

#

Nohill is right there and undine was available earlier on

#

Tbh they could do so much with their money and roster I just want them to do it 😭

forest raven
#

Have no faith in Spark

#

They don't deserve it

#

Architect NOOO

cursive plover
#

Spark has the best skins yet they suck WidowLUL

forest raven
#

Why did they have to get the pink

cursive plover
#

They should have the horrifying green and blue of Vancouver

#

and no

#

I wouldn't give pink to the titans either

feral zodiac
#

Shock have only lost 3 times?

forest raven
#

In the regular season

#

Got 3-0'd twice in knockouts lole

#

And the three losses in the regular season were to Houston twice and Glads

#

Losing to Glads OMEGALUL

willow tartan
#

I count their match against London as a loss

forest raven
#

Fair

#

I'm still malding they beat Dallas 3-1 in the qualifiers and then got 3-0'd by Atlanta in the knockouts

willow tartan
#

shock vs shanghai rematch when zzz

forest raven
#

Implying Shock will make it to Hawaii or the playoffs

willow tartan
#

I mean they have to at least make one right?

#

no way they don't make it 4 stages in a row

forest raven
#

Watch it happen

feral zodiac
#

Shock have become the ultimate bed shitters

forest raven
#

True

#

In my very correct plat opinion they should run Ans/Glister/super/Choi/FD/Twilight

#

And commit to it

feral zodiac
#

Not bad but what happens if hitscan is bad

forest raven
#

Glister's a hyperflex

#

Man can play hard hitscan, tracer, proj, doom etc.

willow tartan
#

then they can still run glister nero

#

if double flex

forest raven
#

I feel like ans would have the better sombra though

#

Because Glister will have tracer duty

noble nexus
#

I think ans glister or glister nero should be their only dps lineups

#

unless ans gets back into his 2020 form

#

ngl I reckon the shock could pull off an alright sombra tracer ball comp

forest raven
#

Both Smurf and super have good balls that could become great if they grinded

noble nexus
#

ans sombra glister or nero tracer

#

nero also has a decent pharah and they have should probably run twilight for the ana zen

#

they could probably run that well if they decide to practice it

forest raven
#

Stop playing viol2t as the main support

#

It's all I ask

noble nexus
#

yeah they need fd on MS but they can't play viol2t and FD at the same time

#

so they just play FD and twilight

#

it should be easy

willow tartan
#

at least give fd twilight a shot

#

ya know?

#

Try it

noble nexus
#

Yeah they really should try it in a match

#

They should know they can’t get away with two hyper aggro supports

willow tartan
#

like cmon

#

they try viol2t lucio before twilight fdgod?

#

pls bro

noble nexus
#

It’s fucking absurd

#

I don’t know why they aren’t trying to get more assistant coaches at the least

#

They clearly can’t function with just crusty and casores

mortal abyss
#

they played twilight fdgod against paris for uh

#

OGE training arc in contenders

florida mayhem did a top tier to shit tier speedrun any%

Mayhem didn’t do that bad on jj

#

They got map 5 on Dallas in dallas’ own meta

plush grail
#

''not that bad''

north relic
#

Houston Dallas justice?

plush grail
willow tartan
#

their loss on toronto was the worst one

plush grail
#

this was when justice was at the absolute bottom

#

justice was legit garbage at this point

north relic
#

Remember they bought shock to map 5

#

Justice rebounded after the first two games

plush grail
#

justice is dumb anyways

#

fuck decay

#

all my homies love onigod

willow tartan

put onigod on a good team 🙏

#

why is the EU region dead

#

give me a moscow team

north relic
willow tartan
#

what happened to russian players in overwatch?

#

bro i swear they all disappeared after season 1

forest raven
#

Remember when the team that completely dominated the EU region went to OWL and slapped the league around

#

Oh wait

willow tartan
#

eu as a whole need to get more people addicted to overwatch

#

its hurting their regional performance

forest raven
#

I mean tier 2 just doesn't exist at this point

#

Shanghai dropped 4 maps the entire summer showdown

#

And half of them were in the one series

north relic
#

3 from Chengdu

willow tartan
#

all from chengdu

forest raven
#

Spark

willow tartan
#

oh

north relic
#

Didn’t they drop one to spark

willow tartan
#

yea

#

right

#

shy mcd and guxue fucked too hard

forest raven
#

Shy fucked on the worst map for ball

willow tartan
#

and they got a map because leejaegon forgot to press Q

#

he had rally up

#

shouldve rallied as soon as hz engaged and committed a rally of their own

next mesa
#

Sheeeesh

#

Wonder what would've happened if Dallas had cree

mortal cipher
#

How many loses has Shanghai taken this year

balmy wolf
#

5

#

3 against Dallas, 1 against Hunters and 1 against Spark

mortal cipher
#

Yeah ok

#

So that’s 5 losses and how many wins

#

???

balmy wolf
#

a lot

#

dont wanna count

forest raven
#

21 wins

#

Counting knockouts and tournaments

balmy wolf
#

ouch

forest raven
#

They're 10-2 in the regular season with EIGHTEEN points

balmy wolf
#

glads have the same amount of losses

#

glads = shanghai

#

same as shock

forest raven
#

Shock is 9-3

balmy wolf
#

5 losses

#

shock = glads = shanghai

forest raven
#

Holy

mortal cipher
#

Shanghai is also up 20 map diff

#

And they can lose 4 and still be at the number one spot

forest raven
#

Shanghai could lose all four games and get 3-0'd and they still wouldn't lose the number 1 spot in APAC even if Seoul or Chengdu went 4-0 and won the CC

abstract nova
#

damn

#

so they can just throw if they wsnt to

#

maybe they can play bastion

mortal cipher
#

Lol

#

Basically they’re already in the playoffs anyway

#

So they can not try the rest of the seas if they wanted to not that they will

#

They’re too far ahead of anyone

forest raven
#

They can experiment for post season p much

mortal cipher
#

Even Dallas Is 6 map diff behind them at 14 map diff

willow tartan
forest raven
#

Oh

willow tartan
#

yeah but its only seoul

#

so if its any time for seoul to pop off its the countdown cup

forest raven
#

No they wouldn't

#

They have 9 points

#

Shanghai has 18

forest raven
#

The max points you can get in one tournament is 7

willow tartan
#

wait shit youre right

#

im toasted idk

#

o i was thinking of uhh

#

the other number 1 team

#

shock can theoretically get number 1 in NA during countdown cup

After that awesome Summer Showdown Finals, we’re now headed into the final Countdown (Cup) of #OWL2021.

Countdown Cup info is coming on the 21st - we wait a bit to tell teams the map pool / hero pool so they take a real break.

We’ll also share more Playoffs info this week!

hot onyx
#

Hero pools are back

#

Fuck

sullen berry
#

hero pools

#

I complained about it during june joust

#

but that was pretty conservative

#

time for a little disruption

#

else we end up with virtually the exact same dps support bans

earnest leaf
#

please

#

just ban sym

sullen berry
#

tanks are the only variation

devout path
#

Dva banned = double shield :)

hot onyx
#

“Yeah guys we know multiple players and a majority of the fan base spoke negatively of hero pools for how it reduces scrimming partners and toys with the meta, but it’s not like there’s an incredibly simple way to cancel it or anything so we’re going along with it as planned”

earnest leaf
#

blizz trying to please the whiny ass community

#

community doesn't want stagnant metas

#

hero pools directly fights against that

sullen berry
#

ball banned - nerf chengdu

#

probably nerfs shanghai at this rate

devout path
#

Meta isn’t even stagnant

sullen berry
#

but hardly a difference

#

only the beasts of the east can show meta diversity, with or without her pools

hot onyx
#

And reduces scrim partners so that owl teams and contenders teams can’t scrim eachother for practise so while there isn’t a half decade long GOATS meta I don’t see the reasoning behind it

sullen berry
#

it was the NA orgs and the community fickle enough to complain what can fix it and leave for another game freely that were complaining

devout path
#

Bring back goats

earnest leaf
#

hero pools isn't going to be a flawless system

#

Sadly there will be downsides

sullen berry
#

shut down role lock

noble nexus
#

Bring back goats

hot onyx
#

Hero pools bring more harm than good unfortunately

earnest leaf
#

I disagree

#

It forces teams to actually change shit up instead of forcing the same 6 heroes all season long

hot onyx
#

Well actually

#

The patch notes kinda does that now

#

With the game getting patched more frequently than it used to

north relic
#

when was our last patch anyway

#

and what was it

hot onyx
#

Last patch was the hitscan nerf

barren quest
#

Last patch mainly addresses hitscans

hot onyx
#

Which was not the devs best decision

earnest leaf
#

But they still buffed widow

#

like the chimps they are

hot onyx
#

Also not a good decision

barren quest
#

Isn't Widow like not very good rn?

hot onyx
#

But neither was 5v5 but that’s a can of worms I’m not gonna open despite mentioning it Morcy

Hero pools done as they are now are good

#

Hero pools as they were done before were very bad

willow tartan
#

hero pools now are cool

#

when will they release hero bans

wicked pendant
#

Speaking of hero pools, have they announced who's out for the countdown cup?

#

Last time, they announced it as soon as the previous tournament ended.

noble nexus
#

they're waiting a few days so the teams will actually take the time to rest instead of scrimming and worrying about it

willow tartan
#

???

#

how would overwatch releasing hero pool information make teams behaviors change

#

wait nevermind i just ran that thought experiment in my head

#

sorry my brain works slower than my mouth

earnest leaf
#

teams will probably figure out around thursday or so

#

they learn a day or two before us

willow tartan
#

i think the leading theory is that since teams that dont make the tournament are essentially already on break, releasing the information earlier would mean the top four teams would have effectively less scrim time with knowledge of the "ban pool"

hot onyx
#

Echo symm ban

Double hs

earnest leaf

from this stage

If lucio gets banned after Astro made it to korea I will write an angry letter

willow tartan
#

ban brig and play bap zen double shield double sniper

#

pls buff hitscans bozzard

hot onyx
#

Double hitscan

#

Less damage falloff from 2 long range bullets instead of 1

Could always have genji again

willow tartan

stand1 was there for the tanks fearless couldnt play

but since fearless dipped and they got fate

fate by the way he can play like every main tank good

they dont need a stand1
