#

All star event where it's the same teams just coach swapped omegalul

#

That'd be amusing to see a dpei vs imt

plush grail
#

can we just start a fundraiser

#

gather some money

tawdry hamlet
#

Start a fundraiser for a toilet bowl game

plush grail

so we can see la valiant vs titans/spitfire

hot onyx
#

Remember when Philly beat the Dragons?

noble nexus
#

Nah when was that

tacit skiff
noble nexus
#

huh weird

hot onyx
#

God I miss Dayfly ZenyattaCry

noble nexus
#

still don't remember philly ever beating shanghai >:)

next mesa

when

#

there are like

#

3 weeks left

noble nexus
#

hitscan sucks I doubt they play him at all anyways

limber pine
#

Unless long range hit scan needs to be played in the playoffs (they won’t), he won’t play

next mesa
#

cree doe

#

and soldier has been like kinda present

earnest leaf
#

It depends

#

It very heavily depends on which comp comes on top

#

the bunker poke comps with rein or orisa and cree/torb

#

or ball dive comps with tracer sombra

raw ermine
#

still can't believe drags are 0-2

tropic herald
#

just watched dridro hit a sick af bash

tacit skiff
#

I rewatched the Shock vs Boston game
The only reason Shock won Lijang was because of Twilight on Brig

#

That one brig shield saved three shock members from Punk's bomb

#

Brig as a character cost Boston the map 1 win

balmy wolf
#

I’m watching the replay of fuel and eternal rn it’s my first time watching a full OW game and I love watching there tracer play as a tracer main I’m like wow

tawdry hamlet
#

top level tracer pathing is nuts

#

they always know which direction to go for the next health p;ack or to chase down the hero, they have like the next 5 moves planned out before they even make them

#

it is so cool to watch

#

like in 4 seconds you see blink into health pack out the door one clip zen blink out to a different healthpack

#

and it is just nutty how they choreograph it

balmy wolf
#

I’ve been amazed by there pulse bomb accuracy and timing. I saw sparkle like double blink right on top of a zen and onigod perfectly baits a brig into a pulse kinda like there approach to it was nutty

tawdry hamlet
#

yeah the cohesion they have where like they basically have this active radar in their head with everyones location on it is crazy

#

ult setup I mean, like they weave in bomb recall so smoothly

next mesa
#

it looks like top tracers get significantly better at sticking the pulse every single year

#

like I bet the attach rate got up each year

tacit skiff
#

tracer barely ever gets tuned so she's been the most consistent character in overwatch

#

as long as she stays consistent, people will only get better at her

nova cove
#

Ok what team has the best DVa player isn't it Shanghai dragons

noble nexus
#

Valiant

#

The 2 best dva players

raw ermine
#

in reality, probably hanbin on dallas

willow tartan
#

hanbin yea

noble nexus
#

Highbee?

#

Hello?

next mesa
#

Hanbin and Void

#

cant believe dva was considered hanbin's weakest OT coming into this season

tacit skiff
#

everyone sleeping on Punk

tawdry hamlet
#

if hawk was able to absorb barrages he would be a really good dva

#

but he always seems to miss those

earnest leaf
#

I'll cut dva's some slack in the meta

#

they have to do so much

tawdry hamlet
#

Hawk and Punk are tied rn imo

#

and fury below them

#

for dva even though he is literally fury :(((

vagrant cargo
#

Space

tawdry hamlet
#

Gladiator fan incoming

vagrant cargo
#

Also Punk has Had his First ever top Performance and ppl already have him that high?

#

Its Just true man come on

#

No way Punk>space

tawdry hamlet
#

it is the same reaction people had last month when boston rolled justice and he looked like that

#

Boston has actually won a bit recently now that I think about it

vagrant cargo
#

He didnt even Play majority of that Match iirc

#

And He was deffo not outstanding

#

Space has been great since end of May melee

tawdry hamlet
#

I feel like space was so overrated coming into the season that he has become underrated in a way, like nobody rates him top 5 when realistically he is probably top 5 this season Salutations

vagrant cargo
#

Yeah agreed

tawdry hamlet
#

but then last year people acted like he was s tier

#

wonder what is wrong with fury this year

#

I also wonder if toronto would be looking different if fury had gone with kdg and heesu and sado

earnest leaf
#

Space has never been rated that highly

#

He was always rated highly among Western OTs though

#

In that case he was the top

gusty rampart
#

He's an above average off tank

#

He's like Super, I watch his streams are really enjoy his personality

willow tartan
#

super is good mt, not above average :(

gusty rampart
#

According to a lot of people he is

#

I personally think he's like top 5 mts

supple prism
tacit skiff
#

depends on if Florida gets their shit together or not

#

set your alarms ladies and gentlemen

willow tartan
#

🍞 🥣

tawdry hamlet
#

I don't know if super is top 5 or not because I have never seen him work without a good system around him and when I have they got rolled but that system is having its own problems out side of super so it isn't a good comparison

#

smurf still looks as good as ever

#

but I can never actually tell with super

balmy wolf
#

having a good system is needed for every player

#

void is pretty good example of this, was on glads when bischu got benched and was avg then went to dragons and was able to become a top 3 OT in one season

tawdry hamlet
#

I think, but dpei influence

#

Hmm

#

Since a lot of players peaked after their glads time

willow tartan
tawdry hamlet
#

Hmm actually, Decay is really the only one

tacit skiff
#

too bad sig banned

gusty rampart
tacit skiff
#

has it been confirmed if oge is playing or not

gusty rampart
#

I think so

#

He's been streaming Overwatch and is back from Korea

barren quest
#

Toilet Bowl 2021 is going to be hype

gusty rampart
#

He's back with the Mayhem because he's posted pictures with Slime tagged in them

barren quest
#

Bren/Sideshow needs to be casting it too

tacit skiff
#

I wonder what Checkmate will do when oge comes back

#

probably go back to fdps

#

or whatever he did

gusty rampart
#

Hopefully

tacit skiff
#

wdym hopefully

#

checkmate was a god on tank

gusty rampart
#

He wasn't really good

tacit skiff
#

remember when they brought Dallas to a fifth map

gusty rampart
#

He got a little too creative

tacit skiff
#

creative is what the league needs

#

it's the same comps every game

gusty rampart
#

Feeding is not what the Mayhem needs

tacit skiff
#

let checkmate diff

tawdry hamlet
#

Plat Rein Strats are a major weakness to Dallas, which is why it surprised me that Atlanta has never beat them trollformation trollformation trollformation

tawdry hamlet
#

I am kidding though it is shocking how well the checkmate rein surprised Dallas lmao

tacit skiff
#

Atlanta can always seem to do well outside tournaments but never live up to expectations when played against the big big boys

gusty rampart
#

Atlanta has gotten so close so many times

#

Every match of theirs is a 2-3

willow tartan
# gusty rampart He wasn't really good

chadmate's greatest game

tawdry hamlet
#

Lijang was his peak

gusty rampart
#

I don't think he's a permanent solution

tacit skiff
#

won more maps against Dallas than Boston

devout path
#

Checkmate is bumper reincarnated

gusty rampart
#

A rookie DPS on Main Tank

devout path
#

And bumper is the only player to ever get into supers head

tawdry hamlet
#

Yeah it's just memes everyone knows that checkmate isn't the perm good solution I'd hope

devout path
#

So checkmate is the counter to the shock

tacit skiff

I honestly feel bad for Checkmate, I doubt this was the league debut he wanted

Checkmate > Super anyday

Florida's options when picking a main tank : Hmm Roar or Oge. How do we pick between mediocre and mediocre

tacit skiff
#

Can't even accept the reality of Checkmate's greatness

gusty rampart
#

OGE got the job done tho

barren quest

Pick up Bumper

tawdry hamlet

They really only had oge pokpo or roar as options at that point

devout path

Bumper

The rein one trick Florida needs

tacit skiff

They have Bumper 2

Checkmate

tawdry hamlet

I wish cloudys owl time was better sadgeCry

Bumper would make such a good mentor to Checkmate

Turning Bumper into a coach

Bumper coach??

That’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard

That pharah guy that hit 5k

How is he not in owl

stuck radish

it would be unfair

#

legend says he was put on london spitfire for one game and they became the best team in the league so he had to be fired

next mesa

They scrummed against shock right after they won the chip

#

And striker got boomed so hard

#

He was thinking of retiring

So ig now we know the reason

it can't be that hard to play pharah on console vs pc

Yznsa is now a contenders player

And has like 7 accs in the top 10 every season in Europe

tacit skiff
#

can't wait to see what Fran's contenders team looks like

willow tartan
#

getting 5k cause its console leaderboard

#

less players = ezer games = more sr grind

gusty rampart
#

I think Fran could make Overwatch League

#

Same with Yznsa

#

Yznsa would probably make Spitfire or Eternal

#

Fran maybe Shock/Reign

willow tartan
#

what is fran player?

#

flex support?

gusty rampart
#

Ye

willow tartan
#

wya would dunk on her ez

gusty rampart
#

Bap/Zen/Ana

willow tartan
#

yznsa is a 1trick i thought

#

like falcon subs out yznsa if they arent gonna run 100% pharah

gusty rampart
#

I've seen him on stream play like Tracer recently

tacit skiff
#

yznsa is a pharah echo player

#

compare him to like valentine

willow tartan
#

ehh

#

is his tracer workable on an OWL level?

#

that's p crucial

#

I also imagine since he's arabic, he'd be hard pressed to find a team that will sign him between the korean rosters and the english-speaking mixed rosters.

gusty rampart
#

He can speak English I believe

tacit skiff
#

yeah he can speak english

willow tartan
#

i thought his english was like v bad

gusty rampart
#

He plays on EU servers

tacit skiff
#

rough English tho

gusty rampart
#

But look at like a lot of mixed rosters

#

Their English is rough

willow tartan
#

and mixed rosters dont tend to do as well

#

full korean > mixed rosters

gusty rampart
#

Shock and Reign

willow tartan
#

atlanta has a mixed roster?

gusty rampart
#

Kai, Gator, Hawk

#

Are all American

willow tartan
#

which one of their korean players isnt fluent in english?

#

pelican?

gusty rampart
#

Still a mixed roster, also I don't know I don't watch their streams

earnest leaf
#

Pelican like most of the korean players can speak broken english

#

Really only the Korean players that are on mixed rosters for a few years have actually pretty good english

#

Like a lot of the shock ones

gusty rampart
#

Yeah Smurf's English is pretty good

#

He can speak English on stream

earnest leaf
#

From what has been said, Choi apparently has the best english among them

tacit skiff
#

Choi has better English than most Americans

#

let's be honest

willow tartan
#

im37 best english

tawdry hamlet
#

yznsa is not really owl worthy imo, no matter how good his echo or pharah are having to build the entire team comp around that defeats the purpose. Every team yznsa has been on the comp has been built around him and for him to succeed, I don't think in owl you can really build your comp around one key player going off unless that player is a top level monster which yzn mechanically might be but idk

#

seems like if you put a10 in owl, he could only really actually do so much

#

like take the best pharah in all of owl, build a comp around solely that player, and often times you lose unless your pharah is a monster like fleta

#

even naga who is arguably one of the best pharahs in the whole league got defeated by boston when the comp was figured out

forest raven
#

nero just swapped off pharah when boston put too much pressure on him

tawdry hamlet
#

Exactly

#

Which yznsa can't do unless he goes echo

#

Which doesn't really help

willow tartan
#

i mean he could be a specialist player

#

sort of how diem was. in case there ever was a super hard sniper meta

earnest leaf
#

one trick specialist players are just a hard waste now

#

You see some of the ones that stay have become more flexible

willow tartan
#

yeah

#

sparkle picked up a few heroes

earnest leaf
#

mf went from being a genji/doom two trick

#

To a very strong flex player

hollow bough
#

sparkle should get back on dㅐㅐㅡ랴ㅏㄴ

#

oops

#

doomfist lol

willow tartan
#

early in on the season i really disliked how the fuel couldnt decide their roles

#

it felt like sparkle and doha were swapping heroes every map

#

mfw both of them play echo and both of them duplicate moira

earnest leaf
#

Another one trick that got better was super

#

Now if he just works on his monkey

#

then he is good to go

#

but smurf op

#

Fearless is also showing he isn't a monkey otp

#

Mag is also in the process of not being a monkey one trick

willow tartan
#

yeah there arent as many 1 tricks in the league anymore huh

earnest leaf
#

Yea most players can play 2-3 heroes pretty effectively

#

Maybe Ameng I guess is still a one trick?

forest raven
#

super has omega poggers rein, a great orisa, and now has a good ball

#

Smurf is still a top 2 winston tho lole

tawdry hamlet
#

I like one tricks because their ceiling over non one tricks on their hero is amazing to watch but with how the season length is and the diversity in play they aren't feasible anymore

willow tartan
#

yeah

#

if they played more matches i could see them becoming more viable

tawdry hamlet
#

Like you can't tell me watching shadowburn or shadder2k tear it up on genji wasn't really dope to watch even if they were useless off genji

earnest leaf
#

Makes me really hope they add more games next season

willow tartan
#

^^^

earnest leaf
#

Maybe 4 weeks of qualifer matches, and 6 games were stage

willow tartan
#

i need more overwatch

#

make the szn longer

#

play 6 matches a stage idk

tawdry hamlet
#

I want more games because how tf am I supposed to watch people like agilities play when there's only one or two maps they'd be willing to risk playing him sort of thing

willow tartan
#

how many games were played last year?

tawdry hamlet
#

Ksf 😭

#

Ksf is like budget eqo Lowkey

forest raven
#

28 I think

#

21

tawdry hamlet
#

But I think mei is the only relevant hero in his pool this year and Danteh just better at mei echo tracer

forest raven
#

Because of covid

#

Season 1 was 40 OMEGALUL

#

Season 2 was 28

#

Season 3 21 because of covid

#

Season 4 16 also because of covid

willow tartan
#

by season 6 we will have 2 games a year

tawdry hamlet
#

So why does hz have so many supports who everyone shills as better than the Korean ones but they never play

forest raven
#

Because it's spark

#

Spark fuckin sucks dick

tawdry hamlet
#

Like who are they though I mean

#

Coldest Mika right

hollow bough
#

40 games for s1???

#

omg

forest raven
#

Coldest Mika yeah

hollow bough
#

I wouldn't have time to watch all of those games

#

were there games every month?

So idk and mcd bench them all season but all I ever heard was praise about them rip

Wait fuck

@hollow bough

willow tartan
#

actually rigged

tawdry hamlet
#

Ideal off season could have been Chengdu fill in Elsa hole with lige and hz filled up support line with Nisha mmonk or Nisha farway or Nisha aztac waaGONE

willow tartan
#

we're getting scammed out of overwatch by blizzard

tawdry hamlet
#

I think the most tragic support line of the year so far has been Toronto tbh

#

So much potential there

hollow bough
# forest raven

I wish I got into overwatch sooner but I didn't have the PC to run it and I was in the TF2 esports scene when it used to be "big"

tawdry hamlet
#

And yet they get outperformed by Crimzo Joobi Jake easily

forest raven
#

Season 1 was wild

willow tartan
#

that team is a dead corpse

forest raven
#

Season 1 was 3 games a day, 5 days a week, always a 4 map series

#

Or 5 maps

tawdry hamlet
#

Mmm, eh I'd agree as an overall team but mechanically Tobi and alarm and astro look as good as ever whereas Lastro regressed hard and Ansoonjae is just meh and aztac got put in as an off tank lmaoo

hollow bough
willow tartan
tawdry hamlet
#

As a team philly sucks yeah, but Tobi and Alarm are both playing some of their best overwatch mechanically. Just sucks the team isn't there

willow tartan
#

tfw "guys its just playing 3 games of overwatch lol itll be fine"

tawdry hamlet
#

To like win

willow tartan
#

clearly the OWL guys have never played 3 games in ranked

#

that shit can be tilting

hollow bough
#

I can definitely see burnout happening

#

for playing games 5 days a week

willow tartan
#

but it really elevated the level of play in matches since teams can prepare far better for matchups

#

which i like

tawdry hamlet
#

Think any western based team will attempt a Chinese based asian roster instead of Korean based?

#

That'd be interesting

hollow bough
#

Plus, APAC and NA can compete far easier, so you don't have a divide in meta

willow tartan
#

all the chinese talent gets sucked up by APAC teams

#

when was the last time a cn player was on a western team

tawdry hamlet
#

I'm not sure and I think charge were the only ones to do the opposite with Nero neptuno and that other guy uhhh

#

Shit

hollow bough
#

this is the blizzard arena now

tawdry hamlet
#

Ah yeah kyb

#

The British dude who was on charge

willow tartan
#

where is the 10,000 seats

forest raven
#

Bren circa 2018 OMEGALUL

tawdry hamlet
#

Ok but even if he didn't have visa issues you're telling me gz thought that neptuno would somehow work better than Chara language barriers and everything aside there's just no way, because even with Nero in so they do like split English no way a Spaniard with hella accent is going to come in and play one of the biggest shot call roles

hollow bough
#

That's just where the stage was

willow tartan
forest raven
#

Bren was I think 21 or 22 in 2018

hollow bough
#

You can see the extra seats they put in on the floor space

tawdry hamlet
#

Oh yeah gz also had fragi, they tried the western player thing more than I remember

hollow bough

Just saying if you told me fragi was a former pro wow player before overwatch id 100 percent believe you

im going down the rabbit hole

#

this was a team?

tawdry hamlet
#

Their french duo was on one of the world cups

#

When contenders teams are orgless they just do meme logos until they're picked up

#

They usually make a roster and wait for an org to grab them

#

Hence why spackle became ardour

forest raven
#

I miss Movistar

tawdry hamlet
#

Also why older teams have hella weird names

willow tartan
forest raven
#

Yes

#

NiP ran goats in 2017

willow tartan
tawdry hamlet
#

Yeah lol I meant like based on his appearance if I had to guess his pro game, something in my head just screams tank on world of warcraft

willow tartan
#

he was noted to be part of a top wow guilld prior to joining owl

tawdry hamlet
#

Probably all the hair

willow tartan
#

nordic genes

tawdry hamlet
#

Indeed

#

Hadi also screams wow tank player lmaoo

#

Is the beard I 🤔

willow tartan
#

really?

#

he looks more like a cs player to me

tawdry hamlet
#

Something about viking looking dudes and world of warcraft connects in my head and makes me think that lmaoo

#

Ah figured it out, it's the beard on the dwarf in classic wow that keeps bringing me back lmao

willow tartan
#

if only every wow player looked like their in game character

tawdry hamlet
#

If only

#

There would be more sexy beards to look at

#

Ez

Damn, I just saw the homestand game in Hangzhou got cancelled. that's sad

2 covid cases and then the entire city goes into lockdown

willow tartan

well yeah

#

i wouldnt fuck around with it myself

#

get that shit out of here so we can return to normal sooner

Yeah especially in a place as densely populated as big cities in china where one case can turn into a hundred in a day

hangzhou has like 10 million people

forest raven
#

Is jjonak the only player to never be benched

willow tartan
#

no

forest raven
#

Who else has never been benched

willow tartan
#

silver3

forest raven
#

I asked the wrong question

#

Is jjonak the only player who has played every single game for their team

willow tartan
#

uhh

#

lets think hard on that one

#

has jjonak ever been benched

forest raven
#

No

willow tartan
#

no?

#

like you checked?

forest raven
#

Jjonak has never been benched

#
He has played on every single map for the New York Excelsior since the team's inception, having never been subbed out for strategic or medical reasons, and is technically the only Flex Support player the organisation has ever signed.
willow tartan
#

oh so you mean like only players that have been around since the start of the league?

forest raven
#

Yeah

willow tartan
#

well if you count expansion teams i would say

#

idk

#

like i would have to check

#

man thats a hard question

forest raven
#

Has masaa ever been benched? Hmm

willow tartan
#

masaa doesnt count though

#

wait

#

has he been subbed?

forest raven
#

Oh no

willow tartan
#

my brain says yes

forest raven
#

Masaa doesn't count

#

Reign had Astro in the very beginning

willow tartan
#

yeah idk must be it

#

or at least idk has come the closest because i dont remember m1ka or coldest palying

forest raven
#

idk might be in the running

mortal abyss
#

Masaa has been benched like one map for astro in 2019

#

Carpe comes close to having played every map but he got becnched towards the latter end of 2020

forest raven
#

Has Eileen ever been subbed out PEEPERS

mortal abyss
#

Uh

#

Maybe when nero was playing

#

Idk

tawdry hamlet
#

I think he's the only one map wise since he's played every single map

#

But series wise there might be another but I'm not sure

#

First we have to find players who've been on the same team since nyxl was founded

#

Gator? Idk

#

Ah no pokpo existed

#

That's nutty though the mental strength to go through like hundreds of owl maps

forest raven
#

Oh I'm sure there's at least a couple players that have played in every series

forest raven
#

Not Atlanta, Boston, Chengdu, Dallas, Florida, Houston, London, Glads, Valiant, Paris, Shock, Seoul, Shanghai, Toronto, Vancouver, or Washington

tawdry hamlet
#

Rio has except for one single map he was benched for fragi

forest raven
#

Only NYXL, Charge, and Philly

#

Oh and idk in Spark potentially

earnest leaf
#

Choi has been subbed out a few times, but has perma started since s2

tawdry hamlet
#

Guxue hmm

#

Meko maybe

forest raven
#

Not meko

#

He's not even in the league anymore

tawdry hamlet
#

I mean just like streak of maps wise I guess. I am aware he wouldn't be nearly as many maps as jjonak.

#

Idk if there's anyone

forest raven
#

I think jjonak is the only player to play every map for a team

#

But potentially IDK on spark, Rio on charge, and potentially Carpe has played every series Hmm

tawdry hamlet
#

I think Rio comes the closest on like just streak of maps in a row but carpe has surely played a lot of maps

#

According to owl stat site Choi is up there

forest raven
#

Since the team's inception I meant

feral zodiac
#

Since shanghai straight up don't have a second main tank

#

Oh

#

Yeah probs

forest raven
#

What

tropic herald
#

Those three players made it so those 3 can’t be true

forest raven
#

Huh

tropic herald
#

You said those 3 potentially played every map for their team, I listed which players subbed them out

forest raven
#

dk about IDK or Carpe on that either tho

tropic herald
#

Ok Rio I’m pretty sure is true

#

But I’m like 99% sure Carpe and IDK aren’t

forest raven
#

Yeah probs PEEPERS

willow tartan
#

carpe got subbed out recently lol

#

eqo/rascal

forest raven
#

Again, not every map, every series

hot onyx
forest raven
#

Interesting

raw ermine
#

Jihun is on charge

#

but yeah I am confident jjonak STILL has played every map

#

yeah jjonak has played the most time in OWL

forest raven
#

What a chad

little tusk
#

maybe he should take a break

gusty rampart
#

He might

#

And that makes me cry

hot onyx
willow tartan
#

nyxl without jjonak is like fusion without carpe

#

weird

gusty rampart
#

I don't think he'll ever switch teams. He'll just retire

hot onyx
gusty rampart
#

When JJonak leaves, the NYXL dies

gusty rampart
willow tartan
#

NYXL should just pull out of overwatch league when jjonak retires

#

give up the spot, give up the franchise

#

close shop

#

we're done boys

hot onyx
#

Should’ve done that when they decided to release SBB Libero Mano and Anamo

#

And thought “yeah, these coaches that stripped a potentially top tier team of their talent are worth keeping”

#

How tf do you have Haksal on your team during a genji meta and not even make the finals?

mortal abyss
#

imt moment

worn falcon
#

nyxl just should swap coaches like Spark does.

trail perch
gusty rampart

Haksal ❤️

He's playing League professionally now :)

Interview with Flora

maybe owl soon

worn falcon

next season maybe, if actiblizz get monies from sponsors

since no more t-mobile

raw ermine

actbliz doesn't sign playes bro

#

the teams do

worn falcon

no, i mean if OWL exist nexrt year, thats on actiblizz

gusty rampart

That's not good

#

Like really really not good

#

That makes me sad that T-Mobile dropped them

willow tartan

Owl will exist next year.

No way OW2 without OW2L

Everything's uncertain with Activision Blizzard

noble nexus

The shock are signing more assisted coaches finally PogChimp

next mesa

omg when

#

who?

#

who?????

raw ermine
#

byzenith?? really? Him?

#

good for him I guess

north relic
#

he has been in a lot of teams

noble nexus
#

Atleast the shock have more than one assistant coach now

plush grail
#

A assistant coach is not gonna save this shit year lmao

noble nexus
#

It’s a start

gusty rampart
#

Shock can make a comeback

twin bloom
#

Shock is a good team

#

Just not championship level

noble nexus
#

Coming into this season as the back to back champs with the roster they have and not qualifying for any tourney is absolutely a shit year for them

willow drum
#

It's not a shit year

#

for any other team

#

but for championship teams like Shock

#

it is pretty bad

#

but ByZenith was good.

#

Coached Drifters when tehy were good

#

and was the main coach of Goats too

#

Very nice pickup

#

Underrated I feel

noble nexus
#

Yeah he’s been on a few decent teams from what I saw when I was looking into him

#

Probably decent for them

#

Plus I’ve been saying from the start that they need to fill their coaching gaps again so it’s a step in the right direction at the least imo

noble hare

@twin bloom hello

just 5head things

robust marten
#

I want to improve my Aim with Dps characters like Widow and Mcree is there any pro players you guys recommend i watch to help me

willow drum
#

All of them have insane mechanical skill

robust marten
#

like any specific widow or mcree players

willow drum
#

The main skill for widow is finding positions to hit the easy shots

#

and then hitting the easy shots themselves

#

Currently in this meta, not a lot of widowmaker or mccree are being played

#

I think Ans and Kai are the best choices

next mesa
#

Cree yes

willow drum
#

to watch

next mesa
#

Check out kai ans

willow drum
#

yeah

#

kai and ans

next mesa
#

Shit like gwangboong is kind of hard

#

For regular players

#

Just cracked out on cocaine

#

Kai and Ans are smart

#

U can try fits too

#

Widowmakers job is to get in a position to hit easy shots and then hit them

balmy wolf

widowmaker is nice,

next mesa

guys im telling you

im so scared

oh god oh fuck

our only hope is silver3

raw ermine

ta1yo glister genji doom meta

next mesa
#

they're gonna pull out ta1yo in the playoffs and just

#

not drop a map

willow drum
#

confirmed

fiery void
#

yo

#

new friends anybody ?

gusty rampart
#

Ta1yo is really good

#

I'm surprised they haven't played him at all

tawdry hamlet
#

because he isn't good enough and with this short of a season sacrificing a record to develop a talent when the future is so uncertain is pointless if what they have can keep up this record

#

feel like it is a chengdu farway moment, like he is good enough to start but do they take the time to develop him or just put in mmonk who will be the same or better every time

#

on projectile nero is equal or better on every hero that isn't genji and on hitscan glister ans are better on any hero

#

and then nero also has sombra and so does ans

#

he just doesn't have a role, unless they bench a better player imo

gusty rampart
#

Fair

#

Nero is goated

#

I don't understand the hate he gets

#

Same with FDGod

tawdry hamlet
#

I think a lot of teams underestimated the hero diversity this year

#

They signed backups for a 16 game season that had like a 5 percent chance of being double projectile ever

#

Also seems like a ton of teams prepared for double flex support for no real reason

#

Basically

#

I see happening kind of like the NBA where positions are dying and it's just becoming front court and backcourt instead of 5 individual players. Like the dedicated projectile or hitscan role is dying. there are just flexes now aka projectile players who have a good tracer omegalul

#

Basically Hanzo tracer and Sombra have been swapping between flex dps and hitscan players all season

#

Even genji sometimes

#

Like in the NBA it used to be "we need a center on our roster" now it's "we have an all star forward he can just play that role now"

earnest leaf
#

Fdgod got hardcore caught up in the crossfire

#

He played mainly at a time when shock as a 6 man squad was fucking trolling

#

And even vets were struggling

tawdry hamlet
#

Yeah that Atlanta series and the opening Houston series made him look less than ideal

#

Unfortunately

#

Mainly the Atlanta series

barren quest
#

Well nowadays both flex supports almost always get subbed in at the same time and take turns on who takes the MS role McCreeLUL

willow tartan
#

just make sure that your roster can run most or all hero combinations

tawdry hamlet
#

I mean sub roles, since most flex players are good at a hitscan so the whole dedicated projectile role is getting way smaller

willow tartan
#

most flex players have good hitscans?

#

well i mean if you consider tracer a hitscan

next mesa
#

Taiyo is gonna play

willow tartan
#

which she is

#

but

next mesa
#

Just watch

willow tartan
#

ya know

next mesa

He will be the secret weapon

tawdry hamlet

God that team is tragic

tawdry hamlet

I wonder if you took the best players in the world and off roles them a little how bad they'd be

stuck radish

put ans on genji

tawdry hamlet

Like imagine Fleta cree Lip Echo

#

Imagine Violet Lucio omegalul omegalul omegalul

stuck radish

ok i have an idea for that

you know that florida player checkmate?

put him on reinhardt against fearless

LJG rein would be a bigger chad than checkmate

tawdry hamlet
#

Comments saying dogman is dumb and biased towards Atlanta as if he wasn't on the team for two years and is friends with the current roster

#

Like no shit lmao

#

Who would've thought s former Atlanta player wants them to win ZenDisappointed

balmy wolf
#

he underrated them before the season xD

#

and ppl said he was overrating them cause bias

tawdry hamlet
#

Charge should be in the spot valiant are in, everyone should laugh at charge for being sponsored by an mlm and sucking but then la just had to do that thing

willow tartan
#

ehh

#

who cares what theyre sponsored by

#

like its money that goes to the players at the end of the day

tawdry hamlet

Oh yeah I don't care about that I just think it's funny to make fun of ZaryaLUL

balmy wolf

willow tartan

is that trolling?

balmy wolf
#

why?

tawdry hamlet
#

Be at least got Houston right

willow tartan

how can you rate toronto above dallas

balmy wolf
#

and london

willow tartan
#

like purely on rosters alone

#

actual trolling

balmy wolf
#

dallas had no hitscan

willow tartan
#

xzi?...

tawdry hamlet
#

Pre season show match they looked awful because ping Xzi had just left and other stuff so they got rolled

willow tartan
#

in the pre season

tawdry hamlet
#

So everyone rated them low suddenly

balmy wolf
#

ppl thought that might hurt them

willow tartan
#

xzi retired after the season started

#

like a day or something

balmy wolf
#

nope

forest raven
#

I think the majority of people put Dallas low in preseason rankings because it was Dallas

tawdry hamlet
#

Oh I remember they had no tracer And got rolled

#

Sparkle tracer looked bad at the time

willow tartan
#

and what about the fusion?

#

how do you rank fusion so low with how stacked their roster is

#

like i mean look at high the titans are placed

#

surely you cant tell me that isnt trolling

tawdry hamlet
#

Fusion is second to Shanghai

balmy wolf
#

fusion is second???

tawdry hamlet
#

It's separated by region

willow tartan
#

no

balmy wolf
#

this guy is beyond stupid

willow tartan
#

that says west & east

#

not west/east

balmy wolf
#

ur actually dumb

tawdry hamlet
#

Hmm

willow tartan
#

why would there be a tier break between dragons and london then

#

itd be a separate list

#

3head

tawdry hamlet
#

He didn't rate apac below the entirety of na lmaoo

willow tartan
#

very trolling

balmy wolf

hes really unintelligent

willow tartan

well of course he is

im talking to u

willow tartan

imagine believing in roolf/fire backline

forest raven

Fire Roolf

willow tartan
#

fire roolf indeed

tawdry hamlet
#

Most underrated players in the league

#

Crimzo 🤔

#

Punk

#

Hmm who else

willow tartan
#

what do you consider underrated

#

like underplayed?

balmy wolf
#

underintelligent

forest raven
#

Like this chat

tawdry hamlet
#

I guess not praised enough for how good they actually are, like Crimzo is rated bottom flex supports when he's really not that bad at all

willow tartan
#

isnt that just cause bad team last year

tawdry hamlet
#

And punk is similar up until recently

willow tartan
#

punk was hyped up when he joined boston then did nothing much

#

but again, bad team syndrome

tawdry hamlet
#

Underrated can also be silent carry players

#

Hmm who is one of those

willow tartan
#

the silent carry of each team?

#

nero 😎

tawdry hamlet
#

Factual

forest raven
#

God nero is so hot

tawdry hamlet
#

Masaa has gotten good this year ZenyattaFace

willow tartan
#

yea

tawdry hamlet
#

He's more than a healbot now

#

Iris got really good

willow tartan
#

what about creative?

forest raven
#

I've never seen creative play poorly

#

But I've never seen creative swing his big dick around

willow tartan
#

i think he's just like

#

really stable above average

tawdry hamlet
#

I think bebe has been pretty underrated this season. He's been alright

#

Maybe closer if he stopped getting subbed for ttuba

#

Silent carry is piggy

willow tartan
#

some teams also dont have a silent carry

#

their silent carry is their not so silent carry

tawdry hamlet
#

Yeah piggy mechanically is so good

#

He's always top of stat boards

willow tartan
#

like who would you say is the silent carry on fuel/dragons? i think the players are skilled enough in each individual role where there's no one consistent person that's hard carrying

tawdry hamlet
#

Yeah I think so, I think maybe you could argue fate for Shanghai since ever since june he's been the best hall in the world

#

Yet having stars on other roles makes him not look as significant
