[north relic]

nothing changed then

[plush grail]

shut up

[tacit skiff]

assass

[sullen berry]

@balmy wolf aye, Atlanta can't possibly be a playoffs team right

[balmy wolf]

they win one game and then lose two

thats the law

[sullen berry]

Math checks out, ATL 11-5

Why not live in simpler spaces

If you're LA or NYXL, get wrektd

Everyone else is a VOD review away from being a winner of one map

Exception being the Hangzhou Guangzhou rivalry which felt really good for a closing match

[north relic]

Wait there aren’t all stars skins coming?

[hot onyx]

Nopers

Instead we get the old ones 🥰

[north relic]

No mvp gf skins right

[hot onyx]

Because Blizzard are so generous

[north relic]

I don’t have to worry about saving tokens at least

[hot onyx]

And no MVP skin because of that one kid in 2019

Idk about grand finals skin though

[north relic]

For the token hoarders out there, these are the last legendary OWL skins going on sale for the 2021 season.

[hot onyx]

It’s also the last season where the skins are going to be relevant once OW2 is done

[wide minnow]

look at this new skins soon ig

[hot onyx]

Blizzard promoting collegiate?

Are they under new management?

[wide minnow]

yea

[north relic]

Ok what the hell is collegiate

[wide minnow]

idk

[hot onyx]

Think of a competitive scene in the skill range between Open Div and Contenders

Basically Overwatch college teams

Like how schools have football teams

Except Overwatch

[north relic]

Can I get a scholarship for overwatch

[hot onyx]

You can try but idk if they’d allow an NYXL fan into the school grounds

[north relic]

discrimination

[balmy wolf]

u guys wanna make a collegiate team?

[earnest leaf]

I don't wanna carry all of you

[balmy wolf]

no u suck

[hot onyx]

That would be funny but there regions and ping to take into account

Because if you guys are in Europe I can’t play because I’m in the UK

[balmy wolf]

we dont want u tho

[devout path]

Collegiate coaches gg

Unless I get pro before I go to college

[plush grail]

[noble nexus]

[plush grail]

i can 1v1 in tf2

[digital cloud]

man I used to love that game

fucking valve not giving a shit

[plush grail]

i'm pretty sure froyotech has more fans than the LA Valiant rn

[balmy wolf]

ur both plat

so shhhh

and luigi is literally a bot

cant even carry himself

[digital cloud]

b4nny kind of an asshole but I do like froyotech more than valiant

[plush grail]

how is he a asshole

[digital cloud]

you do know how he interacts with team mates and stuff right?

[plush grail]

enlighten ,me

[digital cloud]

he basically acts like he is god's gift to tf2, kicks really good players because he doesn't consider them to be good enough, basically just really competitive and not very nice

so basically the ideal pro player

but personally I think he wouldn't even still be a pro if tf2 actually had a real pro scene so I feel as if he is a bit full of himself

tf2 is fun though

hitscan is op

but also projectile is op

[plush grail]

idk man he's always super chill on stream

kinda understandable that he gets mad now and then during big games

lots of stress to perform well probably

[digital cloud]

I am sure that is part of it, but the stories about him don't paint a really good picture of him as a teammate, and I would say there are enough that it isn't really alleged at this point

[plush grail]

as long as he's just a little toxic and not some raging hompophobe or racist im okay with it

[digital cloud]

Fair enough

[plush grail]

jhong moment

[mortal cipher]

is that wot it is

[hot onyx]

So I may or may not be unable to fill out my pickems sadge

In case you missed it:

• one of the biggest streamers left on twitch decided to play overwatch
• he sat in queue for about 30 minutes before finding a match to the tune of 63k viewers
• got absolutely rolled
• realized we are STILL playing double shield
• left

[plush grail]

xqc legit has the same amount of viewers as OWL

[frank granite]

more

[hot onyx]

And they both have more viewers than you

[earnest leaf]

He queued at like 5am or some shit

No fuck he isn't getting a game in 3 minutes

The game definetly has issues, but balance atm is in a decent state

And of course queuing in a stack in the least popular time of day is going to drasticly increase his queue time

[willow tartan]

mm i love psychological warfare

[balmy wolf]

explain esports to a hoe

i simply know emongg and flats

the end

help

[willow tartan]

ok so overwatch eSports is formatted basically the same way as traditional American franchised sports leagues

[balmy wolf]

yea idk ab that either

lolz

[sullen berry]

See you're not a hoe

You're new

😇

Overwatch is a 6v6 game where they have to complete an objective to win

[sullen berry]

Now in Overwatch League, they play as teams that represent different home cities but the players are some of the best in the world and come from anywhere (mostly South Korea), there's a lot to unpack. Just tell us what you want to know exactly

[sage delta]

👽

[sullen berry]

They compete for what believe is a $2m prize and the title of the best Overwatch team in the world.

To do that in a COVID world, games are online, but to make things interesting they will fly out some teams who are in the US (Atlanta, San Fran, LA) all the way to Hawaii to face off against teams who are also in Asia (Seoul, Shanghai and Philadelphia)

[sage delta]

Alien

[sullen berry]

Alien? Nah he went to play Valorant

Started yelling Sheesh and disappeared into the void

[willow tartan]

Are the USG players based in Aus? No way they play from JP, that's like 200 ping.

[idle beacon]

what are your predictions for this months tournament?

[idle beacon]

isn't the ping from aus to jp huge aswell?

like atleast 100ms?

damn, even worse

Ping time between Sydney and Tokyo
avg    min    max    mdev    timestamp
218.038ms    217.915ms    218.222ms    0.423ms    2021‑09‑07 22:45:18

[willow tartan]

Dragons, Glads, Fuel, Hunters win quarterfinals.
Fusion and Justice win Loser's round 1.
Dragons Hunters win semis.
Fuel and Glads win Loser's round 2
Dragons win Winner's
Glads win loser's round 3
Glads win loser's final
Dragons win Grand Finals

Cause I think Hunters can't beat glads but they can beat fuel*

[idle beacon]

are fools good again?

[willow tartan]

I also see a world where Hunters make it to GF

It's mainly dragons fuel hunters glads i think everyone has as their top 4

then anything other then that is a hot take for teams to go on win streaks

like if philly/shock goes hot and goes on a lower bracket run

i dont have faith in justice even though technically they could peak

and reign well...

No pelican no win

I guess reign could beat justice but either team loses to glads

[idle beacon]

you didnt answer my question 😛

if dallas are good again. they weren't in august

[willow tartan]

They were taking a break in the Countdown Cup, just like the Dragons.

[idle beacon]

and hunters, top3 for me. or. .. top2 with glads. glads didn't shine in junge like they did in august

[willow tartan]

I don't doubt the Fuel will most probably be good, the reason I rate glads above Fuel is because of their ability to play multiple compositions.

I don't think you can 1trick a comp in this Playoffs.

[vagrant cargo]

I agree

I have it Shanghai Glads Shock Fuel Chengdu

Those 5 teams imo are a step above Atlanta philly and justice

[willow tartan]

I have more faith in glads ball than fuel ball

[vagrant cargo]

Obviously

One has MuZe a top 4 ball

[willow tartan]

Chengdu ball is chengdu ball, but I can't rate them higher than glads because they did lose to them.

[vagrant cargo]

Other team has fearless who has been ass on ball

[willow tartan]

MuZe top 4 ball?

[balmy wolf]

atl is doing pretty good for having ball meta for half of the season

im proud

[willow tartan]

Do you mean Glads is a top 4 ball team?

Cause individually I think MuZe ball has some contention.

[balmy wolf]

glads is the best ball team after hunters and dragons

[willow tartan]

So what's your bracket pred looking like?

[vagrant cargo]

I think muze is the best ball

In NA

Ans 4th overall

He has excellent mechanics, good understanding of the hero

He sometimes pepegas thats his only fault

[willow tartan]

Shock will be first team to be knocked out :)

[vagrant cargo]

Bold pred

I like it

[willow tartan]

I mean they play the first loser's match

[vagrant cargo]

I think shock have the potential to make it all the way through

[willow tartan]

And they play either the Glads or the Fusion

so that's rough

[idle beacon]

hunters after shock and fuel? come on!

[willow tartan]

shock copeium

they can only play rush

[vagrant cargo]

Ball isnt as dominant anymore

[willow tartan]

fusion are more likely to make it to grand finals than shock

[vagrant cargo]

But i Actually have hunters above fuel

Eh shock doubleshield and dive has looked pretty great recently

[willow tartan]

fusion has shown themselves to be comfortable on ball orisa and rush compositions whilst shock only play brawl

[idle beacon]

shd, glads/huntress, fuel/shock

my pred

[vagrant cargo]

Vs weak teams

Shock also played dive and pounded

[willow tartan]

vs chengdu dragons and seoul

[vagrant cargo]

I think ur a bit too harsh on shock

Dragons didnt scrimm that stage or rather not much and seoul arent good

[willow tartan]

I mean shock can win against fusion but shock is not winning in match 10

That's as far as they make it.

[vagrant cargo]

I think shock will dick fusion

[balmy wolf]

fusion ass

[willow tartan]

Same with the reign vs justice game

[vagrant cargo]

I think fusions tankline is rlly mid

[willow tartan]

can go either way but they wont make it past that point

[vagrant cargo]

And choi super smurf have been good lately

Viol2t has also Hit his stride

And twilight is good

[willow tartan]

ehh

dont think shock will make it very far still

[forest raven]

I hope Shock goes 0-2 so super can go back to streaming faster

[willow tartan]

true, true.

[balmy wolf]

anyways atlanta gets proper next year and yall will get dicked on

[forest raven]

Chengdu gets apr1ta next year

[vagrant cargo]

Atlanta gonna be scary next year

[willow tartan]

Fuel gets Xzi next year

[vagrant cargo]

Proper Pelican Kai Kellan Gator Hawk Attack Finn Iris Masaa

That shit pounds

[forest raven]

I still don't rate that tank line

But I think most of that is my bias

[vagrant cargo]

Kellan attack?

U dont rate kellan attack?

What?

[forest raven]

No

Gator/Hawk

[willow tartan]

switching tank lines is a cardinal sin

stick to one tank line

[vagrant cargo]

Gator hawk wont even be played that often

[vagrant cargo]

Attack is still underage for the first part of the season

[willow tartan]

o

[vagrant cargo]

So thats why id keep hawk gator

[balmy wolf]

hawk is fine

[vagrant cargo]

Yeah

[balmy wolf]

gator is a good orisa

[idle beacon]

shock hasn't been as good as they were last year

[vagrant cargo]

Hawk gator wont win u titles

But kellan attack deffo does

[idle beacon]

dno why people still consider them being top3

[balmy wolf]

but gets u to playoffs

[vagrant cargo]

Yeah

[forest raven]

Hopium

[willow tartan]

hopium overdose

[balmy wolf]

well guys

dont forget

5v5

[vagrant cargo]

Anyways how can glads even improve their roster

[willow tartan]

5v5 wont make teams drop their second tank

[vagrant cargo]

Like besides coaching but even then

Who is there

[willow tartan]

youll still need at least 2 but likely 3 tank players

cant have 1 tank player play all 8 tanks

and then they add like a couple more tanks and by s6 3 tanks will be standard

[balmy wolf]

proper pelican in 5v5 is gg

[willow tartan]

what about seoul

[balmy wolf]

as dps will be more dominant

[willow tartan]

just get a good backline and then profits gesture

no more extra tank slot to worry about shit tank rotations

[forest raven]

Bro gesture ain't gonna play

[willow tartan]

marve1 moment

[forest raven]

Won't be surprised if Seoul drops everyone besides ProFits

[vagrant cargo]

Profit overrated

Idc

Get stalk3r

[willow tartan]

profit > every dps on shock

[vagrant cargo]

Thats not hard

[wide minnow]

people buy seoul skin but team is lol

[vagrant cargo]

Shoxk dps are their weakpoint

[willow tartan]

so then do you mean shock dps lineup are dogshit

[vagrant cargo]

Glister hasnt lived up to his potential yet

Nero is overrated

[forest raven]

Just because dps is the weakest part of shock doesn't mean they're bad lole

[vagrant cargo]

Ans hasnt veen great

[wide minnow]

best skin - spark , and best team- atlanta

[willow tartan]

wrong

spark skin is ass

[wide minnow]

[willow tartan]

terrible colours

[vagrant cargo]

Shanghai dropkicks Atlanta

Spark skins sucx

[wide minnow]

no dude how dare u say that

[willow tartan]

its too soft

[vagrant cargo]

Anyways

[willow tartan]

like it doesnt look good on a skin

[vagrant cargo]

Glister is the only shock dps i can see performing up to the competition

[willow tartan]

profit is still a top 5 fdps

[balmy wolf]

barely

[willow tartan]

he's been that way throughout owl history

[forest raven]

Bro what

[wide minnow]

Pelican best genji in owl

[forest raven]

nero has played damn well most of the season

[willow tartan]

you think nero > profit?

[idle beacon]

hopium?

[forest raven]

Where did I say that

[vagrant cargo]

No lol

[willow tartan]

idk why you bring up nero then

[willow tartan]

so whats your fdps ranking then and where does profit place?

[forest raven]

This

[vagrant cargo]

Leave Pelican Kevster Fleta Sp9rk1e>profit

[balmy wolf]

yes

[willow tartan]

leave isnt an fdps

[vagrant cargo]

Id even favour jinmu rn

He is

[balmy wolf]

he is

[vagrant cargo]

He literally plays evers Single hero

[forest raven]

Huh

[willow tartan]

leave is chengdu's hitscan

[vagrant cargo]

Echo genji hanzo sombra tracer

[wide minnow]

jinmu lol

[balmy wolf]

leave is fdps

[vagrant cargo]

Just becazse Chengdu play a lot of double fdps doesnt mean leave isnt one

[balmy wolf]

fdps can play hitscan

[vagrant cargo]

Is Doha no fdps either or what

Or kevster when they ran kevster mirror

Also nero has yet to diff a top tier fdps

[willow tartan]

okay then with that logic why is leave an fdps? what if he's just a hitscan that plays other heroes?

[vagrant cargo]

He got demolished in the tracer v tracer by kevster

[willow tartan]

cause i swear to god he was signed as a hitscan player

like last szn

[vagrant cargo]

Hitscan wasnt even his original role bro

He has always been a flexgod

That was his thing

[willow tartan]

thats the only thing i remember about him last year

[vagrant cargo]

Leave has played every hero in his career i think except a few supports

[forest raven]

Leave played fucking reinhardt in the 2018 world cup

[vagrant cargo]

His best heros pre owl were doom genji tracer hanzo

[willow tartan]

well if you include leave then sure, ig that top 5 makes sense

[vagrant cargo]

Even then id take jinmu over profit profit hasnt been that impressive this year

Mf even got diffed by rascal on tracer first match

[willow tartan]

man what has gone wrong in this world

[balmy wolf]

yaki better aswell

[willow tartan]

where getting diffed by rascal is now a bad thing

[vagrant cargo]

On tracer

Even rascal knows his tracer isnt great

[vagrant cargo]

I agree

Yaki 6th jinmu 7th profit 8th

U can make a case for yaki>sp9rk1e ig

[balmy wolf]

on some heros yes

[vagrant cargo]

Also i think give Choisewhan a good team and he would be bettwr then profit too

Kids beyond cracked

[willow tartan]

now i just cant take you seriously wtf

[vagrant cargo]

He has a bottom 3 backline

[balmy wolf]

seoul is just bad

[vagrant cargo]

And a bottom 5 MT

Seoul had toyou creative fits

And anamo marve1 are still better than rio mandu

[balmy wolf]

agreed

eileen on hitscan lmao

[vagrant cargo]

Profit has had a way better surrounding cast and hasnt been much better performance wise on the heros they share

[balmy wolf]

guy was a doom genji

player

[vagrant cargo]

If id Show u a PoV of either and had to ask u who is profit and who is CSW u wouödnt be able to tell the difference

[vagrant cargo]

Cree as well

Eileen cree is aight

[willow tartan]

literally every single game seoul has won has been off the back of profits

[idle beacon]

what do you guys mean with hopium? is it a new player for shock? if yes, i haven't followed last month's owl matches

[balmy wolf]

lol

[willow tartan]

hopium is like making a case for upsets

[vagrant cargo]

of fits and toyou u mean

[willow tartan]

like if i say washington justice will win grand finals

thats WJ hopium

[vagrant cargo]

and all im saying is csw has been as good performance wise

and he has dragged charge to victories as well

[willow tartan]

oh

preds are open

time to definitely get it wrong

[balmy wolf]

atlanta wins+

[forest raven]

[idle beacon]

against who?

[balmy wolf]

themselves

[idle beacon]

lol

[willow tartan]

alright, definitely wrong bracket pickems locked in

"perfect bracket" is a scam, never gonna happen

[balmy wolf]

shanghai winless

loses to shock then to fusion

[willow tartan]

Honestly, if they lose any way I hope they lose that way.

Better than losing to the Sadiators.

If Dragons lose 0-2 0-6 then at least I can use the copium of they took a break and collapsed like NYXL

if they dominate and then get 7 map reverse swept by the gladiators in grand finals then glads are just the better team and i have no copeium to hold me over for OW2

[balmy wolf]

nah

[forest raven]

I hope finals are Shanghai Chengdu

[balmy wolf]

ur team is just shit

[forest raven]

So I can laugh at NA

[balmy wolf]

sick of laughing about ur team huh?

[forest raven]

Huh

That doesn't even make any sense

Atlanta fans

[balmy wolf]

makes sense if ur iq is over 60

which is hard for shock fans

[willow tartan]

I understood it but I only understood it because i'm dumb and can speak stupid

[forest raven]

At least I don't need an 18 tweet long thread to get my opinion on anything

[balmy wolf]

ur iq is over 60 cause u support a good team

[willow tartan]

You could've ended it "At least I don't use Twitter."

people who use twitter are worse than atlanta and boston fans

[balmy wolf]

twitter users are cringe

just like draw

[forest raven]

Atlanta gonna go 0-2 in playoffs and Gator and Hawk will slap down Polymerization and write an essay with at least 20 references about how shit the league is

[balmy wolf]

u couldnt complain cause u didnt even make hawaii xDDDDD

[forest raven]

Glads went to Hawaii once and got more wins than Atlanta did in 3 trips

L

[balmy wolf]

cause glads is not shock xDDD

[willow tartan]

Hawk already wrote it in preparation, here are his bulletpoints

League shit.
Travel copium.
Pelican injruy feelsbad.
League shit, Blizzard Activision also shit
hawaii shit
university of manoa shit
apac bad

[balmy wolf]

glads is a good team

shock is not

also shock fans are cringe

look at draw

[willow tartan]

shock and atlanta both go 0-2

[forest raven]

Most self-aware Atlanta fan

[willow tartan]

By virtue of being the only Atlanta fan in existence

[forest raven]

TRUE

[balmy wolf]

self aware that im better 😎

[forest raven]

Least delusional Atlanta fan

[willow tartan]

atlanta is always people's 2nd/3rd/4th favorite team

who actually mains atlanta omegalul

[balmy wolf]

not cringe like shock fans🤮

[forest raven]

Even Atlanta's colours are

[balmy wolf]

ahhahahahaha okay mr grey

hahahahaha

[forest raven]

Shock's colours are goated

[willow tartan]

people who support shock are either omega sweaty or omega pepege

[balmy wolf]

and cringe

[devout path]

Or both

[balmy wolf]

[devout path]

No that’s paris fans

[forest raven]

Damn

Will the Atlanta fan ever come up with another joke

Perhaps no

[willow tartan]

shock fans are like arsenal fans

[balmy wolf]

so draw is a paris fan?

[willow tartan]

atlanta fans dont exist

[balmy wolf]

interesting

[devout path]

No luigi is a paris fan

[willow tartan]

i only know two atlanta fans and one of them only supports atlanta for the colors

[balmy wolf]

What do you guys think of Necros in Contenders?

[jagged viper]

ok

[last nimbus]

cool nano blade yesterday

but just another otp

[north relic]

necros to owl easily

[last nimbus]

there will be owl teams signing otps like yznsa or necros but i doubt they will have much playtime

sidenote: i seem to recall falcon esports saying they don't need yzsna to win the septembers contenders, absolute chads

[rare parcel]

Chipsa did well Kappa

[last nimbus]

😐

[rare parcel]

Necros is an otp for sure but he's been getting really better lately

His dash triple headshot combos sre inhumanly consistent

[last nimbus]

i know hes good

and there are defo more otps in owl

[rare parcel]

People were saying that his Genji playstyle won't get him anywhere, but it's been getting more and more consistent

[last nimbus]

especially Lucio otps

[rare parcel]

Is it possible to reach perfection

[last nimbus]

of course + genji is making a comeback in the meta

so now would be a good time for a team to sign him

[rare parcel]

Yeah

And if the comp is wrong for Genji they can always do a switch mid game or mid season

You know backup players

Man literally played his first Pro game after 4 years and deflected a grav

He is here to stay

[vagrant cargo]

he made it to EU conetnders when the region is starting to die

lmao

[rare parcel]

But its true

Just look at his games from 2 years ago and now

[vagrant cargo]

doesnt change that he only made it when eu stopped caring

[tacit skiff]

Do the Valiant just not have access to their YouTube channel anymore? They haven't uploaded in 8 months.

Paris hasn't uploaded in over a year either.

[raw ermine]

IGC doesn't give a fuck about OWL any more

paris had only avalla as a manager and she was working so hard she probably couldn't use it

[balmy wolf]

what does all of their language mean? like dps or mtd and all of that stuff?

and ty

[raw ermine]

dps is just the dps role from overwatch, damage per second

mtd means main tank difference, whenever a main tank player outplays the opposing main tank, people spam this

[balmy wolf]

oooh

see, that makes sense

[devout path]

You also have things like C9 which just refers to the organization cloud9 and is now used in the overwatch community when someone leave the point in overtime and loses because of it

And also terms like hitscan

!!damage

[young fractal]

Hitscan: Projectile: Other:
-Reaper -Echo -Doomfist
-Bastion -Genji -Symmetra
-McCree -Hanzo
-Ashe -Junkrat
-Soldier: 76 -Pharah

-Tracer -Mei
-Widowmaker

[balmy wolf]

whats the organization cloud

[devout path]

Cloud9 it’s like an esports organization

[balmy wolf]

oh i basically main all hitcan

[devout path]

That doesn’t matter just what it means in the community because you’ll probably hear it a lot

Flex dps is everything other than those hitscan characters

[sullen berry]

Happy to consult over a replay of a recent match, that might get you up to speed at your own pace

I do consultations per half hour, being in OW esports for 5 years but for you I can no problem

And would be easier to remeber what terms are actually useful and what is pepega

[idle gorge]

Why can I see it happen that shock underperform the whole year and win the league now

[sullen berry]

Well who else underperforned all regular season and managed to win the league?

Lets see, here's one

London Spitfire, 2018

Heres a meta starter pack: dive, goats, double shield, brawl, shimada brothers, double sniper

Took me a while to come back to this but scroll up if you down to learn more later @balmy wolf

[balmy wolf]

ooh yes fs! thank you so much and i'll send u a vod code when i have a chance!

[sullen berry]

Youre welcome

[willow tartan]

london didnt underperform all season

they actually won a stage title unlike shock

[willow tartan]

whats youre bracket?

[north relic]

How does 1/4 of the community think shock wins

[swift narwhal]

fans + it’s playoff shock

[willow tartan]

1/4 of the community are shock fans

[north relic]

unironically probably higher

[willow tartan]

owl has 773k subs shock have 103k

so 1/7th

[north relic]

that isnt that accurate though

[worn falcon]

remember the banshees from Outlaws

[north relic]

isnt there a viewership chart for teams

[willow tartan]

wtf did you know that overwatch had an official highlights channel

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJIle2WR4ht1RzC6l_x_h1g

[north relic]

oh yea i found that from akshon

[willow tartan]

contenders has less subs than shock

[plush grail]

yes i know

im smart

[worn falcon]

support collegiate instead contenders

[willow tartan]

collegiate is literally gonna be contenders but w even shittier players

[plush grail]

tbh some owl players need to go to collega

some esports players are REALLY fuckin dumb

[willow tartan]

LAV collegiate

[worn falcon]

Send Ojee to college

[willow tartan]

which owl players have finished college

[plush grail]

im pretty sure only like 10% have done that

you have some actual fucking brainlets like space and super

but also Ark who studied at a super prestigious university

[willow tartan]

any current players who completed college?

[plush grail]

some of the veterans maybe

who joined owl at like 21/22

but rookies, none

[worn falcon]

rookies taking break for college then back to college

[willow tartan]

SBB?

[plush grail]

doubt it

he used to be a pro bowler, then a barista

[willow tartan]

man i really cant think of an OWL player that has finished college

cause that would mean they'd have had to go through it and then decided a career change

[swift narwhal]

sbb sadge

[willow tartan]

or perhaps retired to do it and them come back

[raw ermine]

ark was becoming a nurse, then became an OWL ms

[north relic]

what a downfall

where is ark

[willow tartan]

yea but he didnt finish his education

[raw ermine]

yeah

[plush grail]

went back to studying

[north relic]

is ark retired or in contenders

[willow tartan]

retuired

[raw ermine]

retired

[plush grail]

ark could either make like 50k a year playing ow

or study

and make way more

[willow tartan]

what if he just became a good player and make 300k a year

[plush grail]

you fucking brainlet

''just become a good player''

[north relic]

did justice get anything for 5th place in playoffs

[willow tartan]

nah nah think about it

[plush grail]

you're so lucky this is a virtual chat room

i would spit in your face

[willow tartan]

5 years of med school vs just click more heads

seems obvious

[north relic]

mercy players dont need to click heads

[raw ermine]

hes a MS bro. no heads to click

[willow tartan]

who says you cant click heads on MS

[north relic]

if clicking heads meant being a good main support then viol2t would be better than ljg

[plush grail]

viol2t overrated as fuck

[willow tartan]

he doesnt have 100% headshot accuracy

so i dont think so.

[plush grail]

kaan > viol2t

[willow tartan]

when will ppl post their pickems i wanna make fun of them

[swift narwhal]

[plush grail]

oh that would explain it

ima do my pickems hold on

[next mesa]

mobile buggin rn

[raw ermine]

I havent done pickems yet

gonna be hard asf

[hot onyx]

Bogus Binted

[hot onyx]

Ohhhhh

[next mesa]

yeah the formatting makes it so u cant even see the score i think

[willow tartan]

contenders dogshit.

trueee

[next mesa]

this is so fucking hard actually this playoff bracket

[hot onyx]

Finally a good take from the brainlet

[next mesa]

cant pred??

wait nvm im trippin

[raw ermine]

I am trying to decide between atl and hunters

[hot onyx]

Does ATL definitely have Pelican?

[next mesa]

no pelican

pelican on 200+ ping

[raw ermine]

hmm

[hot onyx]

ATL out first

[next mesa]

for me I see justice beating atl in a close series

perhaps

[hot onyx]

I don’t see Justice or Reign going further than whoever wins that loser bracket game

[next mesa]

yeah i have them losing against glads

fuck this is actually so hard

shock or chengdu

fuck

[hot onyx]

Although does the loss of Pelican weigh more than the loss of dignity when Justice signed Closer and Bebe?

[next mesa]

and like i wouldnt be surprised if chengdu beat fuel in winners round 2

[balmy wolf]

levy has brain damage

[next mesa]

closer bebe if they instalock moira lucio

[hot onyx]

Wait Levy

[balmy wolf]

so his opinion is irrelevant

[hot onyx]

You have Shock going further than 0-2?

[next mesa]

I think they could beat fusion

[hot onyx]

I think you’re high off of a fucking W against Defiant

[next mesa]

like def

nah

match against defiant barely means anything

just think shock is pretty strong rn

they did go to map 5 against glads in cc

it was a given they're gonna sweep defiant

[hot onyx]

Glads got stronger in Hawaii than when they went through qualifiers and knockouts

And honestly the maps Shock won were more Glads L’s than Shock W’s

[next mesa]

I trust in the crust

🙏 🙏

[hot onyx]

I don’t trust in a man that feeds Viol2ts ego to the point where he benches main supports

[next mesa]

fdgod played against defiant

I trust someone that could manage sinatraa architect striker rascal on the same team and utilise them 👌

[hot onyx]

Crusty used to be the best coach

Make way for NvM

[next mesa]

not to mention

the taiyo factor

honestly wouldnt be surprised if shock makes a far loewr bracket run

sucks that they cant have pelican on sub 100 ping

[hot onyx]

Levy Levy Levy

You’re not taking all scenarios into account

What if Fusion beat the Gladiators?

[noble nexus]

lmfao

stop talking

[hot onyx]

Jack I have human rights

[next mesa]

Playoff shock doesn't lose

[hot onyx]

Shut up bri ish

[noble nexus]

you don't deserve them apparently

fucking philly fans

[hot onyx]

“Profit always shows up to playoffs”

[willow tartan]

i have fusion beating shock

shock plays 1 comp

[next mesa]

wasnt the playoffs 😌

nah

[willow tartan]

true true, if seoul got locked to playoffs they wouldve gone to grand finals

[next mesa]

shock can run

[hot onyx]

When will he show up

[next mesa]

almost everything

[noble nexus]

shock can run a fair few comps tbf

[next mesa]

like im just speaking facts

only comp that they're not S at is ball

u guys arent taking into account the taiyo factor

[hot onyx]

Y’all are living in the past

Hotba = Choihyobin

Get used to it

Fusion as a team just look stronger rn

Shock are also momentum based

[next mesa]

nah they are crusty drug usage based

[hot onyx]

So once that gets halted by getting demolished by the Dragons they’re going to be boomed before they’ve started

[next mesa]

something tells me all the cocaine dealers in california are popping off right now

[stuck radish]

philly are also heavily momentum based

[next mesa]

2019 playoffs would like to disagree bro

yeah philly

is so much more boomed

[willow tartan]

shock will get omega boomed after their fans send death threats to nero and fdgod

[next mesa]

mentally

[willow tartan]

[hot onyx]

Map 7 vs 3-0 momentum

[next mesa]

its gonna be same

philly has weaker mental

its jsut facts

[earnest leaf]

philly is gonna get boomed

[hot onyx]

Super tilts if he sees an out of place traffic cone

[willow tartan]

boomed philly beats boomed shock

[hot onyx]

Tf you mean “weaker mental”?

[next mesa]

shock wont get boomed

[willow tartan]

fusion are used to being omega boomed and disappointing

[next mesa]

esp if they lose against dragons

when*

[earnest leaf]

here is the thing

shock really hasn't done anything this season

philly has managed to do less than them

[willow tartan]

theyve won more knockout maps

[hot onyx]

Philly didn’t get taken to map 5 by a winless team

Lost a map, but not map 5

[next mesa]

they also got reverse swept by seoul

[willow tartan]

tbh fusion v shock and reign v justice i believe can go either way

but personally i went with the reign and the fusion going through to elimination round 2

[stuck radish]

imagine reign loses all their games

[hot onyx]

Holy shit there is a brain

[next mesa]

i think decay assassin could gap

200ping pelican

decay match kai easily

[hot onyx]

Yeah Levy but the support gap

[willow tartan]

reign could go 0-2 if tiny brain coach tries to run pelican

[next mesa]

there just might be a support gap

but

[willow tartan]

no peliecho

[stuck radish]

i just wanna see mag fury vs gator hawk

[willow tartan]

yeah thats pog

[earnest leaf]

only way justice win if winston is hard forced and tracer is a perma lock

[next mesa]

if the coaches be smart

[hot onyx]

Coach runs Edison as much as possible and it’s a dub

[earnest leaf]

otherwise justice is getting hard tank/supp gapped

[willow tartan]

???

who else are they gonna run

[next mesa]

and they run moira lucio

[willow tartan]

they only got 3 players bro

[next mesa]

it will minimize the support gap

[stuck radish]

i dont think mag gets gapped by gator

[willow tartan]

edison plays 100% of the time

and reign win

[hot onyx]

Truuueee

[earnest leaf]

gator>mag on anything that isn't winston

[next mesa]

200ping pelican > edison

[willow tartan]

no

[next mesa]

literally

[willow tartan]

200 ping pelican will get dumpstered by decay

[next mesa]

so will edison

it dont matter

[hot onyx]

Levy

Go to the replay viewer

And watch Pelican POV vs the Glads in the Countdown Cup upper finals

[willow tartan]

anyway here's my 100% wrong bracket

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/745768601671303231/885587522795765810/pred1.png

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/745768601671303231/885587517242507325/pred2.png

[hot onyx]

And then come back to me with an informed opinion

Here’s where I come in hot

[earnest leaf]

but yea

I think shd will probably seem ahead of most teams

[hot onyx]

I don’t think Fuel make it far

[next mesa]

yea I can see that

[earnest leaf]

I think half of the teams are gonna fall off

[next mesa]

I think maybe chengdu beat glads

[earnest leaf]

most likely reign/justice/philly imo will start to struggle

[next mesa]

Rush will pull up with his big brain

[willow tartan]

that could definitely be a possibility

[next mesa]

"sparkle, instalock doom we win every game"

[earnest leaf]

But it's hard to call because we don't have a good grasp on what the teams that were already in playoffs are going to run

[hot onyx]

I think that Dallas are going to be too hell bent on running the ball comps

[willow tartan]

but im assuming the meta is gonna be super map dependent where you have to run all compositions to a high level

[next mesa]

Dallas are very open to running ball comps

[earnest leaf]

all I know

[hot onyx]

and they’re going to shoot themselves in the foot by doing so

[earnest leaf]

apac better pray rush doesn't become relevant

[next mesa]

esp after they had practice

or u mean they would wanna run ball comps too much?

[hot onyx]

Fusion literally a top tier rush team??

[next mesa]

i dont think they would be in NA

[willow tartan]

dragons can still clinch a victory in rush. may melee grand finals

[earnest leaf]

fusion rush would lose out to the NA teams that are there besides justice

[hot onyx]

Carpe McChillin’ Rascal Mei Hotba Dva Mano Rein Astro Lucio Alarm Bap

[earnest leaf]

shock/reign/dallas would 100% have an advantage if rush has to be run

[willow tartan]

dont think there will be a hard meta and teams will just run what theyre good at map to map

like justice will force winston a lot

[earnest leaf]

that's what we always think

[next mesa]

Dallas would fuck way harder

[willow tartan]

fuel may as well but idk, maybe theyve mastered the ball comp

[earnest leaf]

but usually it boils down to 1-2 comps being ran

[next mesa]

sym > cree

[willow tartan]

coming into the 2020 playoffs what i was thinking was "holy shit we're going to lose to this hog meta"

[hot onyx]

Carpe symm been kinda sweet

[next mesa]

Dallas just team gap

Fearless gap every mt on rein and monke

[hot onyx]

Levy your brain is wonderful

[next mesa]

its just true

not to mention hanbin dva gap hotba

[willow tartan]

nah i mean like between the ball comps and orisa comps but in place of ball some teams will try to force winston and some teams will try to force rein instead of orisa

[next mesa]

now if hotba was on tracer that would be different story

[hot onyx]

It tells me to think exactly the opposite of everything that comes out of your mouth

[willow tartan]

idk i just think that hero unbans wont shake up the meta too much other than making rein more viable

[hot onyx]

Like a reverse magic 8 ball

I love it

[willow tartan]

but orisa/ball still meta imo

[next mesa]

taiyo factor

[willow tartan]

oh also pharah less prevalent

cause ashe + echo

[earnest leaf]

i'm curious to see what chengdu runs

[hot onyx]

Last time Ta1yo was fielded he got gapped by Hydration

[next mesa]

that was a throw

[earnest leaf]

because jinmu is going to be perma running pharah/sombra

[next mesa]

ur brains not big enough

[hot onyx]

Levy please see a doctor

[willow tartan]

theyre going to run ball pharah and when they cant run ball they will run sombra cree

or sombra tracer ig

[hot onyx]

Hear me out

[next mesa]

Its not my fault bro

ur brain is just too small to see the truth

the truth is taiyo is gonna be finals mvp

[hot onyx]

Jimmy tracer TaroC00kie cree

[next mesa]

they will never bench leave

tarocookie cree

[hot onyx]

Because he’s MVP?

[next mesa]

is like so mid

im not gonna lie

for that 1 map that he played lolll
