when

during the cc cup

#

ahh

#

i wanted the echo

sullen berry
#

but what about the June Joust Champions

#

and I'm not referring to the tournament

it was glorious

#

Void sounding like the KEK emoji

willow tartan
#

the real life jousting in hawaii was a complete wash btw

wild cape
#

finally got home from homecoming

#

easy ass grandfinals, 4-0 as I said 😐

tawdry hamlet
#

So like

#

Idk bittersweet

#

Retirements are going to suck ass this year

#

Like season 3 all the benched players who never played like babybay surefour etc retired at the end and now all these homies are about to ☹️

#

Sbb retirement any day now

earnest leaf
#

I wonder what Ta1yo will do

#

He said he was helping the team a lot despite not playing

#

so maybe he was acting as a coach

tawdry hamlet
#

Sbb ryujehong isn't a bad content creation duo tho so that'd be cool for gen g as an org

#

I think if valiant played into their villainous persona and rep instead of just signing people like nothing happened it'd be really cool change of pace

#

Like the gator shit talk lmao just nice change of pace πŸ’€

tacit skiff
#

made me hate Atlanta even more

tawdry hamlet
#

Idk what people think of them they played the best overwatch of their lives and that's something to be proud about

tacit skiff
#

they ruined the chances of another team actually competing against the Dragons

tawdry hamlet
#

Dude Dallas would have been dunked on against ball, they lost to fucking gator ball

tacit skiff
#

it would've been 100x better to see the Fuel or Shock in there over the Reign

earnest leaf
#

Atlanta saved dallas and shock from getting embarrassed in the finals

tawdry hamlet
#

^^^

earnest leaf
#

and took all of the embarrassment

tacit skiff
#

Idc who gets embarrassed by the Dragons, I just don't want it to be one sided the entire time

tawdry hamlet
#

Atlanta shouldered the villain role and the embarrassment and all they get in return is hate πŸ’€

tacit skiff
#

4-0 GF are always anticlimactic

#

I feel like Dallas or Shock could've put up at least a better fight

tawdry hamlet
#

Lowkey tho if super shouldered the embarrassment that would be so fucking funny lmaoo

#

Shock no, Dallas maybe imo

#

But Dallas weren't anything special, it'd maybe be 4-2 at the absolute best

tacit skiff
#

Better show than 4-0

tawdry hamlet
#

I think Atlanta making final 2 isn't a valid reason to hate them tho, like it isn't their fault they won. Blame Dallas for losing kek

tacit skiff
#

In the end, I know Shanghai would've won any matchup in the GF, I was just really bummed about it being so short

tawdry hamlet
#

That's fair but a lot of people are using the shortness as a copium for their fav team lmaooo

#

I know you aren't since you like Boston

forest raven
#

Maybe those teams shouldn't have lost to Atlanta lole

tawdry hamlet
#

But the Dallas fans copium and shock fans copium is crazy

#

Lmaoo

forest raven
#

Michael I don't use the copium I just supply it

tacit skiff
#

I want something like what happened between Chengdu and the Glads during the CC
Down to the last second, everyone on the edge of their seats in anticipation

tawdry hamlet
#

I just supply hopium for underdog kek

tacit skiff
#

There's a universe out there where the Boston Uprising won every season of OWL

earnest leaf
#

Also I saw an interesting stat

tawdry hamlet
#

Ok think about it, Chengdu's face Shanghai a ton right? They have gone to map 5s or 4-2 with Shanghai before right? So on paper if glads beat Chengdu by one map only, maybe Chengdu had the best shot of all teams since after all they were a ball team but at the same time they lost 3-0 to Dallas who looked like really good but then bad immediately after idk

earnest leaf
#

Houston was the only inaugural season team to never make a finals appearance

#

Justice was the other one that never made it as well

#

Every other team has been to at least one

tacit skiff
tawdry hamlet
#

Ok honestly, jjangu and piggy don't get enough credit because of how Houston season went they were phenomenal rookies

#

Lots of potential

sullen berry
#

can we be a little more cringe today

#

and look back

earnest leaf
#

houston just needs a better back line

sullen berry
#

back to three years of flashbacks

forest raven
#

I rewatched some season 2 playoff games

#

Shit was wild

tawdry hamlet
#

That's what sucks, Crimzo got super fucking good this year and the backline still sucked ☹️

earnest leaf
#

maybe it's a slightly hot take

#

but after MM crimzo was so mid

tacit skiff
#

Crimzo is an amazing player, on the wrong team

earnest leaf
#

and doing support roulette with joobi/jake was so bad

mortal abyss

If philly were in grand finals it would have been way closer smh πŸ₯±

#

London before 2021, crazy

forest raven
#

Season 2 playoffs was perma double shield, bastion, doomfist, reaper, moira, lucio

tacit skiff
#

Why was Moth benched?

tawdry hamlet
#

Skewed brig way too dank and I guess they figured the few maps they ran Lucio or mercy weren't worth the swapping

#

Since a diff player makes you play the game totally differently

forest raven
#

Moth Sadge

tawdry hamlet
#

Moth striker Choi Heesu Toronto next year bet πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™

tacit skiff
#

Can Moth only play Mercy...?

forest raven
#

What

tawdry hamlet
#

He can play Lucio and mercy super good

#

It's just skewed

earnest leaf
#

Moth was benched because dpei is incapable of coaching his team to play rush

forest raven
#

Dpei did Moth dirty

earnest leaf
#

they played better with brig comps

tawdry hamlet
#

And brig was insanely relevant this year

#

So random rookie turned out to be the best brig in the league honestly and it made moths slightly above average at best brig get benched

#

Despite his s tier mercy Lucio

tacit skiff
#

It was extremely weird to see NA teams during the CC play Ball comps all of a sudden because they knew they wouldn't be able to compete against APAC without running it

tawdry hamlet
#

Basically moth is funny astro with a better mercy and worse brig but their Lucio style is different

tacit skiff
#

Seeing Stand1 on ball brought me back to 2020

tawdry hamlet
#

Moth plays Lucio similarly to jecse where as astro and masaa are more reddit Lucio's imo

worldly flax
novel owl
#

haha you can say ow2 is.. skewed.

tacit skiff
#

I feel like owl is gonna drop after ow2

#

like just getting rid of a whole player on the team?

#

leaves a bad taste in my mouth

#

What sucks even more is knowing that Overwatch 2 is literally just a patch update away from being live, they're just holding all these updates till they decide to hit the live button

earnest leaf
#

man re-watching stage 2 finals

#

I forgot how fast people died in goats

tacit skiff
#

Those Bastion and Sombra reworks are 100% ready to go, but nope, we gotta wait for half a year

Will there be an encore for the grand finals

Yea

Will the drops still be enabled too

forest raven

Yes

sweet mortar
#

Ok thank you

forest raven
#

That includes the skins and 100 token drop

candid gyro
#

I fell asleep during the match

#

How brutal was it?

forest raven
#

Shanghai won in like

#

An hour and a bit

#

2-0, 3-2, 6-5, 3-2

little tusk
#

damn a 0-4

#

I heard some dissappointing things about ow2 as well

tawdry hamlet
#

Eh that's just fear of change and cynicism I thought it looked cool. Like think of destiny 2, everyone was sad like wtf it's a whole new game I'm gonna lose all the time I put into it and my game as I know it, then D2 came out and it was even better. I am not saying it is amazing or something but people need to give it a shot lmao

#

I saw so many sad Samuels and Debbie downers like "omg this final is so boring fuck Atlanta and overwatch 2 looked like shit" like bro cheer up it wasn't that bad lmaooo

forest raven
#

I liked it VeryPog

tawdry hamlet
#

Idk why people hated this final it was good πŸ™

#

Not grand finals but this playoff run as a whole

#

Like yeah grand finals wasn't as close as we wanted but Shanghai was nuts lip got his finals MVP and Shanghai got their title

#

I'd like to think if covid didn't happen season 3 was the last season before ow2 😭

#

Season 4 felt like s3 dlc 😭 I loved it but it also felt weird

timber plover
#

Does anyone have an idea of when the grand finals spray is being released

forest raven
#

16 games just not enough

tawdry hamlet
#

Yeah made the season feel like a long tourney and not a season I think

#

Idk

forest raven
#

I just want lan again

#

And crowds

#

And no region split

tawdry hamlet
#

Something about it just sucks, it makes comp variations non existent and subs not happening because why risk it when losing one game can impact your tourney shit

forest raven
#

I'd like to see 6 or 7 games per stage

tawdry hamlet
#

Just feels like the consequences of losing a game are way too high with 4 game stages

#

Like want to experiment with your stacked roster? Sorry not allowed we can't lose a single game or we risk fucking ourselves completely

#

I just think it did teams like hz and Chengdu dirty lmao

devout path
willow drum
#

this is probably my last season being an overwatch league player unless overwatch 2 is an insane game. i really gave my all this season and it really took a toll on my happiness and mental. i’m proud of my team for how much shit we had to overcome this season ggs πŸ˜‰

playtested ow2 the other day and it’s just not my cup of tea i don’t like the idea of playing 5v5 i trust blizzard to fix the other imperfections… coaching might be fun Thinking face

Overwatch 2 thoughts;

5v5 is a massive change… every player is individually more important.

In OW1, Tanks are the most important role because they control the nature of teamfights.

After 5+ years, there were only 3 fundamental strategies: Dive, Rush, and Poke.

With all that said,

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE ACTIVISION/BLIZZARD MAKE MULTIPLAYER FREE TO PLAY

F2P, creator codes, in-game tournaments, etc would all capitalize on the broader shift to make the game more accessible.

i was on 3 small teams and every time the higher ranked players struggled to even teach what they knew to the teams they were coaching

#

u might just be doing shit wrong

#

its kinda just instinct

north meadow
#

it might have been the fact that i played alot of TF2, and CSGO before starting OW but i caught on to the game pretty quickly, i didnt have much trouble learning its basics and even mained sig and ana when i first started

but yeah I agree, either he stays with Shock or retires

#

of the 3 shock tanks, the one I can see either moving/retiring the most is Smurf

raw ermine
#

nah

#

super's more likely to than smurf

ebon aurora
#

super was getting played in the playoffs even on winston/orisa/ball

#

which you'd say Smurf is better on

#

you don't think there is something in that?

I don't mean due to flexibility

winston rush is more like rein than winston if that makes sense

ebon aurora
#

you think all 3 will stay?

earnest leaf
#

was just saying since he was brought up, he either retires or stays

next mesa
#

yeah

#

I mean if u think about it if super wants to stay

#

he can take a huge salary pay cut and it wont matter at all cuz he makes a shit ton of money from streaming

ebon aurora

true

next mesa

bro dragons played rush

#

LMAO

#

THE MENTAL BOOMAGE

balmy wolf
#

for two fights yeah

next mesa
#

das crazy

earnest leaf
#

was a chad move

#

Take out the rush team with rush

ebon aurora
#

I mean, it's Hanamura when they just needed 1 tick

next mesa
#

very

earnest leaf
#

they went rush at the end of havana

ebon aurora
#

that was more deathball no?

#

with rein zarya

earnest leaf
#

it's rush

balmy wolf
#

would be cooler if they played the whole map on rush

next mesa
#

Dragons have arguably just the best players on every role

earnest leaf
#

they went rein lucio

#

tis rush

balmy wolf
#

but they would prob lose that

next mesa
#

If you add Fearless to Dragons

#

there's like no combination of rosters that can beat the shanghai roster

balmy wolf
next mesa
#

like try to make a roster that can beat dragons+fearless

ebon aurora
#

imagine a South Korea team at a world cup now: Fleta, Sp9rk1e, Lip, Fearless, Hanbin/Void, Izayaki, LJG

next mesa
#

nothing

ebon aurora
#

like wtf beats that

next mesa
#

just give korea gold

#

gg

#

best I can do is, Smurf Hanbin Profits Alarm Astro

#

will still probably lose

raw ermine
next mesa
#

no I mean literally like any roster

try to beat dragons+ fearless u cant

Damn I mean when Atlanta beat Dallas we all know it’s over

dreamy roost
balmy wolf

we knew before that its over

And I think Leave MVP skin will be tracer cause fleta already got the echo map skin last year

tepid ibex

wait i thought there not doing mvp skins anymore

tepid ibex

they arent

rich sentinel
dreamy roost
rich sentinel
#

like should i save my tokens for them is what im asking

balmy wolf
#

there will be no mvp skins anymore

tepid ibex
#

dont think so

gleaming silo
#

this is confusing, because are mvp skins different from the champion skins like Midas roadhog?

dreamy roost
tepid ibex
#

mvp skins are for 1 specific person

tepid ibex
#

grand finals champion skin is for the whole team

dreamy roost
gleaming silo
#

right, so we know not to expect any mvp skins, buuuuut

#

what about the other kind??

tawdry hamlet
#

still can't get over the fact Gator got his tweet out within like 2 minutes of losing what a legend lmaoo

dreamy roost
tawdry hamlet

like the twitter fingers fast af on that man

dreamy roost
tawdry hamlet
north relic
tawdry hamlet
#

kek

gleaming silo
#

so, are they going to make another skin like midas hog for the winners?

tawdry hamlet
#

probably a sombra skin

#

or ball

ebon aurora
#

I thought they'd stopped doing MVP/winners skins?

tawdry hamlet
#

just mvp, they still do winners skins like midas hog Salutations

ebon aurora
#

do they?

next mesa
#

Void is so good on zarya too

#

what cant this man do

ebon aurora
#

Void is a better Sigma than Hanbin but I'd say Hanbin is a better Dva and Zarya - is that a hot take?

#

but they're both absolutely nuts

next mesa
#

no

#

I think Void is better at Sig and Dva but the gap is smaller than Hanbin Zarya and Void Zarya gap

#

its like negligible

earnest leaf
#

all I know

#

is choi showed he's still a top 3 ot this playoffs

balmy wolf
#

no

#

void hanbin hawk

#

in that order

earnest leaf
#

hawk is solid

#

but not over choi still imo

ebon aurora
#

Space is up there too

balmy wolf
#

hawk is cracked

earnest leaf
#

Choi is more cracked

north relic
earnest leaf
#

gator/hawk finally got a backline/dps to carry them

ebon aurora
#

I honestly can't split Void/Hanbin, they're so close

#

then it's Hawk or Space

balmy wolf
#

hawk had the best dva stats in playoffs

earnest leaf
#

stats are dumb as fuck to base how good players are

tiny pollen
#

choi > hawk

earnest leaf
#

mag is the best rein in the league based off stats

dreamy roost
#

Hawk can only play dvaπŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ

balmy wolf
ebon aurora
balmy wolf
#

so basically 96% of ot duty

tiny pollen
#

disagree

dreamy roost
#

Void>Hanbin>Choi>Hawk>Space

earnest leaf
#

I'd still take choi over hawk

balmy wolf
tawdry hamlet
earnest leaf
#

I'll take 2 outstanding years and 1 good year over 1 solid year

ebon aurora
#

Space over Choi for me at least for the simple reason that Choi's zarya isn't at the same level

dreamy roost
#

I take void over any of them, just another lvl

earnest leaf
tawdry hamlet
#

yeah but zarya is never used so who cares LETSFUCKINGGOOOO

earnest leaf
#

ot is 99% dva/sig

#

and even when choi had to run zarya he was good

#

Good enough to help them beat philly last year in countdown cup

#

so obviously isn't bad

tawdry hamlet

I forgot Bianca was even in this season omegalul

I wonder which AT players will mayhem sign

the most recent one?

#

or redbirds?

#

or the one w cucumber

dreamy roost
# gleaming silo it's prediction based on the past, not reading tea leaves

Again, it’s Blizzard’s decision at the end of the day, making a champion skin can take up a lot of time cause you need to find a good storyline for the skin first, then talked to Shanghai dragons about it, to get the narrative down. Then, the artwork team will design the skin with the team based on their discussions, but that doesn’t mean the skin will be out on immediately, everything adds up and it can take a while, it’s not a purple skin which you just recolor it and call it good, be patient my friendπŸ‘πŸ»try to understand how video game studios worksπŸ‘ŒπŸ»

gleaming silo
#

@dreamy roost no, you're completely right - it's just, since this is the first year I've followed OWL, I didn't know the time difference between last year's final and the hog skin

#

I was hoping someone would already know - i wasn't expecting anyone to search for me.

#

if that's true, then it might be a good idea to save 200 tokens, right?

next mesa
#

yeah

#

if you want the championship skin

#

I think it takes less time than the MVP one

#

okay lets see

#

and the championship in 2020 happened in

#

around

#

~october

#

so expect like 4 months wait

#

I think it might be a Ball skin

#

they defined the meta

#

more than sombra honestly

gleaming silo
#

it's a weird situation to navigate, but I think I'd rather save the 200 tokens and hope for a good ball skin

#

Wasn't there some disclaimer about tokens expiring at the end of the year?

next mesa
#

really

#

never got that

wicked pendant
#

I wish I had that kind of self-restraint

next mesa
#

I still have like 500 tokens

#

i feel like i shouldve bought the atlantic tracer LMAO

#

fuck

wicked pendant
#

I bought D.Va, Lucio, and Rein all-star skins.

gleaming silo
#

@next mesa i mean, if they've never expired before, maybe it's just legalese and they won't expire now

wicked pendant
#

I rarely play D.Va and Rein but they just look so good. (Am a Ball main)

next mesa
#

They have never expired before

gleaming silo

the genji and mercy skins are excellent but I don't play either one a lot
