Based NYXL
They usually always make a statement about these things
They did for BLM and Stop Asian Hate
Good SMM
Ado is alive

he ain't done
You forgot Roshan
Ado actually décent now
Oh my lord Jaws' video on the talent takedown draft was incredible 
i dont remember asking
Paris fan's brain continues to be nonexistent 
Based nyxl
Aren't you a Glads fan 
I don’t even know what team you support but I bet it sucks
Unless you’re a bandwagon
I support the greatest team in the history of overwatch
In which case: fuck you
Shock fans 
Dallas Fuel nice

shanghai?
Shanghai's championship titles? 
shock in hawaii 
Yeah haha imagine not getting to Hawaii
Shock still can't make tournaments this season 

Not even making knockouts in SS
Dallas will win the rest of the OWL titles

this chat is slowly just turning into a bullying pit
quote me when im wrong but
fearless on ball 
jecse off lucio 
Do you think the Ball Tracer Sombra meta will continue on for this tournament?
Rapel in for zen 
as of now, pros still playing those heroes in ranked so id imagine they have some importance in scrims rn
BREAKING: Activision Blizzard employees will strike tomorrow outside Blizzard's campus to protest the company's responses to the discrimination lawsuit and to demand more equitable treatment for staff https://t.co/T1d39qpsmq
Shut up, European.
you actual dumbass the uk is still in europe but ur just not a part of the EU anymore
The UK is in Europe but England isn’t
good shit
No team in this league is bad enough to lose to NYXL 3 times this season
i have fusion going 0-4
I have Atlanta going 2-2
At least you’ve got hope
reign play glads, houoston, florida and dallas
i feel bad for u
i dont see them getting anything better than 1-3
u cant see anything idiot
marbel
ian
who plays ball on ratlanta
daan is legit s tier
gator ball is actually good
also isnt gator a off tank
u will see
and hawk the mt???
???
Gator is the main support dumbass
denthead
Yeah hawk is their mt
gator hitscan
Gator is their carry fdps tho
sorry i just give 0 fucks about ratlanta
cree god
True
i can see it depending on meta
if its orisa and ball comps then probably 3-1
i think atlanta dick on fuel on those
yeah
glads prolly a 3-2 atlanta again
glads is the best orisa team tho
yeah
but i think ball is more likely
nice name ian
luigi is right tho
Over ATL?
yes
EU>NA
this meta is pefect for paris
also yeah glads orisa comps are superb
EU>NA
real
ur birtish lol
Birtish
You actually type like a toddler Luigi stop talking to me
After releasing their best players
i have paris going 3-1
bro i just got done from work ofcourse im not gonna have perfect grammar
maybe 4-0
Never forget the 2 month old American Tornado 4-3'd the year old British Hurricane
1 blocked message
lol
the new up and coming rookies vs the washed paris fucks
wait fuck
that sentence
paris beats fuel
Never forget that the 2 year old Hurricane had a near winless season when forced to play at a high level
Luigi’s brain is literally fried
EU pepelaugh
would u say CN>KR?
No
then the AT comparison doesnt make sense
why the fuck would canada be above korea???
What 
Because of Roolf, you brainlet
EU contenders overall was still better than NA contenders
xQc 
obey literally dicked odyseyy running off meta rein comps
while Odyssey were forcing double shield sweating their balls off
with ping advantage too lmaoo
EU pepelaugh
NA contenders is overrated as fuck
new kings sheer cold and exO were also on the same level as obey
so like EU contenders had 4 teams that would dick on any NA contenders team not named AT
5*
doesnt europe have more owl players than na
Somebody keeps forgetting about 4th Dimension smh
yeah
EU has more+only 2 NA rookies this season 💀
and one is the definition of mid
aspire
Joobi and Aspire
aspire solid
yeah
They were forcing doom and hazno every map lmao. Also their MS was on FS while their FS was on MS
Dropping a fat yeet into the ether http://twitter.com/GZCharge/status/1419740704675274753
but EU has given OWL kaan dridro vestola etc tvis szn
EU has had tons of good rookies this year
rak was on brig luke on bap
stop coping
Almost like their 2 teams dedicated to EU lmfao
and malthel also played tracer
Brb gonna go pred Charge to lose 3-0 every match and post it in their server
paris also trialed NA players
They played Rak zen luke brig
And they did great lmao?
Yeah
they jad to scrimm low tier 3 teams
well yeah because the teams in NA would rather pick up koreans 
and the NA players in particular sucked
Neptuno???
only one that did well was zholik
and he got cucked
NA just aint a good region especialy this season
me > you
ian ur plat
im gm
u < me
if we look at the two regions in tier 1 EU has:
Onigod Naga Dridro Kaan Vestola Kevster Shockwave Kai Masaa
NA has:
Moth Danteh Nero lol
u < ntb
and aspire ig
u < draw
I mean yeah lmao. If the NA teams were budget than more NA contenders players would get picked up
How is super and Space not on that list
overrated af dont care
i forgot space
?
super has had some abysmal performances
It's impossible for an OCE player to be overrated 
Aspire isn't best NA hs
EU also has poko and fdgod, dont forget them
Also Gator>super
fdgod has been whacky tvis season at times
Dalton Roolf Fire FRDWNR
and yeah gator is worth mentioning
Lol
i listed good players
Gator can't play half the main tanks lole
hes speaking the language of gods
still is a top tier EU talent, despite wonky performances
yeah aight
You forgot to list the best though
then include FD as well
He is a better winston than super
And Ball
That's a cap
no its not
Not cap
its not
the only map glads won vs shock in opening was because supers winston is so bad
stop shitting on gator
muze legit winston diffed him so hard
Gator winston is not the worst thing in the world
wow gator winston > super winston, what a god
Gator/super have identical hero pools
Gator sucks but his winston is much better than Supers
gator also a better orisa
Holy this server is so low on super
His rein orisa also better
and has been the better rein this season
super sigma > gator sigma
Gator can be argued with the better orisa
idk gator didnt get buttfucked by hadi
Gator: rein orisa ball winston
Super:rein hog genji
fr
Lmao
Super also plays Orisa
Saying winston is in gator's hero pool 
No?
Super isn't bad
Their hero pools are about as identical as Morgan Freeman and Josh Wilkinson
super is a great leader
ye
Gator is better this season
real
He still is?
based on what
daan ball >>>>>>> actual gold ball >>>> super ball
Mfs overrating the mt that has been underperforming for two seasons and just starting to not suck
i have gator high B
lol what
Recency bias 
how is that overrating
we dont overrate
One of the rare reasonable takes from Ian
Who is better in OWL
u underrate him
wasnt talking to u sry
Gator had the Dogman overwatch as FS in s3
he can also play winston just not outstanding
Give him a break
also gator started off great in S3
SUPER A TIER ORISA AHAH!?
shut up paolo
Yeah but super got shattered twice so he's a c tier mt now
hes just a very volatile player
i was talking abt gator
My b
super has had look weak several games this szn
@plush grail go on, don't be shy. It's just charge pickems
it smells like bitch in there
it has always been solid
Also I can agree with your judgment on your nick this one time
Also he won owwc on orisa lmao
Every single player on the shock has looked weak several games this season
owwc is a tier 3 tourney
Gator is B
overall maybe
team SK in 2019 went even in scrimms with teams like phase 2
and denmark a rlly strong team literally scrimmed my team and we werent even rlly tier 3
just 4.5
i think gator is arguably the best orisa in the game
More like the macro just fell
Holy the fucking cope
after muze
C O P E
now that's not even true lmao
id put those above him no debate

u can make a case for top 3 tho yeat
Smurf?
yeah
Smurf been benched for the super horse
Flame
Smurf literally ran orisa most of last season and they were still pounding
Who said that
marbel i have a legit question for u
Lol
Shock isn't winning every single tourney this season
So all the players are bad now
Mfs on the bandwagon that super is just a streamer who happens to be in owl
ask shitter
All the shock players are good
were u ever dropped on ur head as a child
We bringing the c tier mt meme back? 
Thats facts
actually i fell off the stairs when i was 3 years old
No meme
this season he has been better yes lol
and i dont rlly like gator but i do like super
Shock's coordination just died for some reason
explains a lot my man
There's only one main tank I'd call elite in the league this year, and that's Fate
Yall probably thought gravy>>Jjanu last year lmao
thats why i can love u bro
No one rated gravy that highly what
And they need to stop playing merry go around with roster swaps
did falling on ur head make u gay??
bro what is that take
Redditors did
how is fate an elite MT
no but i love my dutch brothers
redditors also probably think leave is their dads
Pls play FDgod all the time on MS
Lmao
he has had way to many bad games to be considered elite especialy if u say hes the ONLY elite MT
I don't want to see Viol2t MS again
Fearless best MT
And Twilight Brig
Hanbin best OT
gator best mt
Jecksay bad
Nah. He's like top 8 ish
mag muze fearless ga9a are deffo in the same tier as fate
im trolling
Fearless has an elite monkey and that's about it
You don't go to 3 out of 3 tournament finals and win 2 of them without an elite main tank. Fate's looked great on 3 out of the 4 main tanks
solid A tier rein though
fearless rein is elite too
I know but some people think its unironic
fearless is obv best mt
Lmao
Wierdo
well then rio and guxue are elite too last season
Fax
because they made finals
???
Ah yes
hold me baby
ratlanta shut
fearless S tier rein
I'm not talking about one final
i can see him being considered elite
So wich player got banned for being a pedo this year
I'm talking about multiple over the course of an entire season across multiple metas
pog uvalo is alive
but saying he is the only elite MT is mad bullshit
i wanna see u laugh
also his rein is way to weak to be considered elite imo
like i wouldnt consider fate S tier on any hero but ball and MAYBE orisa
If Fate isn't elite, then no mt in the league is elite
well
no shanghai as a team is elite
MuZe and Mag and Fearless exist, Fearless is S tier on two MTs and a solid orisa just a meh ball
but i rather have a meh ball then a meh rein if i pick a MT
because if ur winston is good enough u can make winston work in ball metas
couldnt make it work this time 
happens
Lost the monkey mirror on Gibraltar btw
Against Gaga
Fearless
Fearless can't play orisa or ball
Yeah he can
He just hasn't played orisa
Because orisa
Requires a HS
And no NA mt
Plays ball
except muze
Is mano not consistent anymore
Philly fucking blows
I agree
ask @cedar oasis
Remind me about the Shocks season
Shock is 2nd in NA 
Muze is underrated
Remind me how many times they won a map during knockouts
Zero 
mano is consistent
So shock is cock
consistently shitting the bed
real
Mano has been out of position imo quite a few times from what I’ve seen
I can't wait to see Glads continue to not learn any lessons from their losses in the summer showdown

and moon
jmac is on the paris train
jmac wants more than 1k a year
Jmac was good when he played for the better EU team
why would he leave a thriving or for a failing org
im pretty sure ive seen some posts about paris getting more budget slowly
Imagine spending 7 figures for a roster and not going to hawaii
how
their owbers are busy
hard investing into olympique marseille
vestola buyout was cheap as fuck
Muze has been the second best MT in NA
real
Mag hasn’t been consistent all season obviously
Fusion and Glads fans telling themselves that this year is a setup year and that next year will be dominant 
W
Remind me of that time Glads made Hawaii
Lmao
Glads compete with dallas justice reign to make it
fun fact
Fusion compete with NYXL
I meab
L
Was it before
Fun fact
The KR ringers
i think yeah
Philly spent an additional 100k to secure temporary replacements in Tobi and Hotba
Thats just fusion burning money
Fusion can
hotba and tobi are paid pretty well
Comcast money 
Imagine being one of the richest orgs in the league and using that money to obtain Hotba
Where is Sanigular
mans been fucking on T1
Ah
Yeah
And got benched for Bernar on a team that won a total of like 3 matches last season
because vindaim better
bro
do u even watch kr contenders
Actually yes I do
And Clestyn is easily the best ot in kr contenders
Max
Woohyal
yeah nah u didnt watch it
And Attack
For being benched
attack is by far the best
I’m talking this season of kr contenders
hasnt started yet
Ok please
clestyn is second
Year, not season my b
max and whoohyal are both a tier below clestyb
so clestyn had the contenders arc already
No he needs the “back to Contenders” arc that Fearless and Rascal had
did he win
Listen
he made finals i think
He came 4th
but rascal didnt win shit in tier 2 either
anyways whens proper getting signed
There’s literally 4 good teams in kr contenders and T1 came 4th
At that time
And at the time where the visa issues were at their worst, Clestyn was barely halfway into the season iirc
Yeah but look deeper
clestyn looked great every map he played lol
2-way contracts have not worked well in the past
?
Remember Elk?
LMFAO
there have always been signings that didnt work out
not just two way
theres no in game diff between a 2way and a only owl signed playet
Name one 2-way contract that worked
yveltal
💀
lateyoung
Gator 2 way
It worked when they need that sigma
^
None of those count because they are irrelevant to this season 😎
Ok
^
Lateyoung is such a chad
isnt farway 2way as well
LY was a pleasant surprise
Glads fan, didn’t read
I don’t think farway is
farway not 2way
faraway*
oops
wait
farway
wait fuck
i forgot
okay its farway
my bad
L
A Gladiators not making Hawaii 
🥱
also o2blast is too strong
Charge wanted to sign CC
what happened bro
not enough money
okay but also o2blast is too stacked
so imagine kr contenders champion
O2 Blast more like Oh, 2 good players
I might be spitting out bs but I remember reading it somewhere
and then u add f4ze chiyo mer1t
the 1 man show
proper time
bro just spit it out dont be like "i need help"
I like money, what do you need help for?
have u heard of the thing that says
dont say "can I ask a question" bro just ask the questino
I think we had this conversation before who would win prime AT or weakest runaway roster
4th Dimension
What even is the weakest RA roster
Probably the most recent one
I would say the most recent one
Which yes
Merit Ado F4ZE Chiyo Simple probably
Simple seems pretty cool
AT advances to the finals and plays vs Ground Zero Gaming
unfortunately....
but it would be fun to watch
AT da goat team
okay 2019 atl academy or 2020 AT
Atl acad
Close
so proud of myself
Close
speedily vs
Gator is better than reiner
But I think coluge is better than hawk
At least on the simga
Ur crazy
Hawk dva probably better
Hawk is really really good
He is
who isn't better than hawk tbh
Like great for OWL standards
Speedily vs Sugarfree noice
coluge
Colouge is a contenders OT
At have the better dps
Ehhhh
I thought it was Cucumber
He'd be in OWL if he hadn't fucked up
Saucy hitscan>>>>
The overall skill of NA contenders has dropped so much
He was good when all the academy teams were their
Yeah
Also best player on wave check
But good
Hard disagree
Hawk shines on sigma
Ofc dvas his best hero
But his sig just hits diff
its ayt
Fastro diff tho
2018 shanghai were really that bad huh
Fastro doesn’t lose
but if u have kodak
Emotes in spawn
and ojee is good
But fastro
hydron speedily wub
And a top tier owl tankline
more like mid tier
I mean they made hawaii twice and have been fucking nutty
they got omega stomped this last hawaii
And it’s not just pelican
and only beat nyxl the past one
Omega stomped??
Did better than NyXL and chengdu
They took Dallas to map 5
hydron speedily wub better than sugarfree and saucy
their tanklines inability to run dive and beat top teams is not so great
Yea dallas wasn't looking so hot either
but atl still lost
They are too inflexible
I mean they took Dallas map 5 twice
cant be top 5
And 3-0 justice
I think their top 10 easily
Top 5 in the right meta
They ran decay
ye
Very map
o
Every map
I just assumed its one of those
Justice just got rolled in the rush
Mag just got tapped
Mirror
cant remember
gator/hawk can play rein/dva/orisa/sig shit decently
Gapped
Outside of that they get gapped by most tanklines imo for dive
^^
that's the thing, they just don't run dive since they would lose way more often on it
they stick to what they can do
But for a tankline to be top tier, or really good, they need to be way more flexible
Shit like shock's tanks, shd tanks, even dallas tanks tbh
where you would trust those rosters to run most tank lines at a pretty high level
maybe weaker on one
i want to say shock should do good with ball comps but i have no faith in them left
In theory and in the past they have
but shock this season is a thonker
they 100% can run ball and do well, just idk if they will
No good team gets taken to map 5 by London
And dallas got taken to map 5 by florida
No good team loses to NYXL twice.
against checkmate mt
What happened to sans’ cowboy hat
No good team loses to NYXL thrice*
Dallas has had two map 5 series against Florida at this point so
Luigi changed his name to “sans is dumb” so I did this
Basically every team has their days where they just fucking drop the ball on everything
Lmfao
Except Defiant
Shock last year lost 4 games in total
4 regular season games or?
3 regular season games, 1 tourney game
glads, valiant, paris, philly
Imagine not winning every tournament in one season lmao what a shit team
shock came the closest
since their game vs paris came down to one fight
and I think they would have beaten philly in the finals
Without a good genji player at the time?
shd potentially could make it super close if they win this stage
the nearly beat paris running tracer the whole time
dragons dropped 5 games in 2020
Shock would’ve lost 4-2
in a series that went to one fight
shock would have beaten philly
paris were exhausted
and still won
and shock lost by one fight
1 in summer showdown
yea the random hero pool game
The off meta choice for Shock could’ve only gotten them so far
and philly fans thought it meant philly was the better team all of a sudden 
they literally lost by one fight
to the best team in that meta
that wasnt exhausted
^
philly had a higher regular season record than shock
So did Philly vs Paris

philly didnt even cap the second point
vs paris
and paris were exhausted and played significaly worse
Ok 2 fights my b
paris summer showdown was hype as hell bro
also the playstyle matchup favored philly
when they beat philly and shock back to back
because they just hard focused sp9rk1e
that meta was still overrated tbh
but focusing a genji is way easier than focusing prime striker on tracer
double shield with genji thrown in for combos
houston finals
nero's time to shine
profit legs
Honest overwatch
soldier dishonest
if there is another stupid playoffs patch ill quit overwatch
rat that just runs around all day long
nah winston is
You might be right on that
orisa
The past 2 grand finals metas were the most unfun metas in the game change my mind
the past 2 grand finals were shit
Season 1 was orisa double sniper, season 2 was fucking reaper and bastion trash, season 3 was main tank hog

why does OWL hate playoffs?
Main tank hog + double sniper mercy
do they want overwatch fans to suffer?
yes
imagine we get a sigma ball junkrat pharah zen lucio meta for playoffs

that'd be very poggers to watch doe
and ratlanta is shy to try bastion again
can we just get a regular dive meta for playoffs
:(
I miss 2017
Lucio zen
no funky shit
That's honest overwatch
No, OW 2016 meta
beta meta
Quad tank 
what comps will NA play in regular season?
Any tanks that aren’t double shield/hog
for countdown cup
Probably Orisa Dva
force rein
God the fucking kill feed
you think they're gonna run it back to may melee and everyone in NA just unilaterally agrees to play rush?
Rush with no lucio
i can see orisa comps being prevalent for some teams

you know damn well teams are gonna try it 
but i feel like some teams will play the winston dive
rush with brig
They'll probably run Rein Dva Torb Reaper Bap Brig
Why wouldn't you want brig in your backline
what if they just play the comp that shanghai was playing in the finals
because moth is the igl
Fair
if moth is gone team is quiet so they have to field mirror
thats why playing skewed is like a double edged sword sadly
NA refusing to play Ball 
tell skewed to talk more
i hope countdown cup will make it so NA finally learns how to play ball
some teams in NA can run ball
Smurf learning ball
they just refuse to most of the time for some reason

its like them with pharah
Won't happen when Ball exists
kai 😦
they cant buff hitscan bc ppl in ranked mald at hitscans
when they should just run ball poke
isnt the goal to have a balanced game
where all playstyles are as even as possible
heck you, i want my flashy widow plays
not to just say fuck you to one random playstyle every few months
Let projectile have its time in the sun before widow becomes the god of 5v5
Make tanks life hell
not with 175 hp
literally get breathed on and you die
