spark
idfk who is best in apac at this point
like any day one of those teams can shit hte bed
Yeah
and valiant and charge are pretty bad tbf
Shanghai?
they are also known for srewing up the most in apac
Oh
paris threw 
seoul spark and dragons are guaranteed in for apac in my opinion
shanghai are known to start out rough tho
Pelican tapping into his 2021 self
fusion and hunters are 50/50 for me
idk I just can't ever bet on seoul lol
valiant arent awful
i think shock will win this tourney
in for what
Same
lmao
fusion probably doing a fusion
yeah but compared to the NA teams lol
only 2 spots
Someone tell me the apac score
kickoff clash
I would put them mid at best
yea
valiant look better
theres 4 spots
there's 2 spots
Philly SHOULD be up there but they are getting boomed rn somehow
lol
cause its philly so ofc
Philadelphia would go to kickoff clash and get 3-0ed by proper bastion
4 spots
the houston midlaws
i think philly took the spot from hunters
so would any apac team lol
there's 2 each region
because apac is a harder region than NA is
overall but they don't peak nearly as hard as NA
top 5 in apac
average in NA is lower
shits on everyone in NA
ok but we are talking about winning the kickoff
Wrong lmao
I dont think apac play NA in the kickoff clash
better read on in the meta as well
they are not
With ATL being top 1
unfortunately
every other cycle so next one
atlanta just lost to london
One game
still running doom
Are glads not top 4 atleast
headass
Doesn't matter
apparently
they should be yeah
on paper they are nuts
glads would get shit on
Top 4 apac is 2-6 na at best, dynasty can still do a dynasty, Philly can still choke, spark can still throw
but they choke hard
You think so
like they both play down to opponents and choke against the SUPER top teams
easily
like it feels like watching
shock has just looked so dominant
The only apac team with a good chance of winning imo are dynasty, dragons and spark
there are 2 teams on apac's level in NA
for now
the glads of maps one and two are not the same as the last maps lol
shock and fuel
top 5 na imo is shock dallas glads mayhem justice
glads could be imo
here is how na works: shock = fuel > everyone else
3 of those teams are very bad
While I could see shock, fuel and justice if they get their shit together
shock dallas are a tier above the others though
glads and sweep dont mix
JUSTICE?!?!
Glads if they aren't boomed
kek
as for "higher peak"
justice lost to boston
we have not even seen dragon's highest peak yet
"If they get their shit together" so probably not

its either them or toronto/houston
i'd put toronto over justice
they are bottom feaders
id go with toronto over justice
Yes
at their peaks they are nuts
Their highest peak will be choking to Seoul or smth
but the issue is that
Better then all of apac
they are
Too bad they've got nothing but bad days then
incredibly
Besides dragons
inconsistent
justice is maybe #3 peak
When they do good
yeah
Did the match finish
thats the thing
?
No
I really really hope Paris wins over Houston
they are so fucking weird as a team
ohm
which?
its like the seoul of past years esp in NA
like they will randomly just be bottom 2 in region
How did pelican survive that
Oh then why is MAYHAM telling me there match coming up lol
mayhem v justice is the game after this
im saying in paper they are insane and they tend to play well they are just hard chokers is all
like idk
im talking about your justice take
its 2-0 paris rn but it does feel like its gonna go to a map 4
its an L take
your argument is
reverse sweep here we go
Potential doesn't mean squat if they do nothing but choke
they tend to have periods of being really good and than are dogshit
they are better than 99% than all owl teams if they have a "good day"
yes but no
glads show they are good
theres been too many reverse sweeps in NA
Yes just yes
just came back
they just need to fix up their shit
even on "good days"
wtf 2-0 paris
mer1t got da moves
not really
and then shit the bed for 3 weeks
rince and repeat
its not copium
im not defending them lol
they are clearly inconsistent and shit most of the time
but like
bro
they are good 2% of the time lol
like idk
its not that crazy
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
peli disappearing act
Spaghetti dropped
oh wow
ffeels bad
how impressive
lol
here you go
Holy shit reverse sweep time
when they aren't shittingthe bed ofc
such severe cope
Your favorite team is dynasty
one moment
saying a team is inconsistent is cope?
Dynasty isn’t a bad favorite team
You have no right to speak
glads is much worse
im very realistic about their performances
unlike most people
depending on the time lol
I just feel like historically dynasty has been holy inconsistent
so I just personally find it hard to bet on them but rn they are really good
you have not been watching
yes but it’s not got a bad fanbase
OWL
unlike
glads shock fuel etc (the bad fanbases)
also fan of a team
shock being easily the worst one
tbf the largest teams are always gonna have the worst ones
?
just being honest
what are you talking about fr
justice charge hunters spitfire have good fanbases
im just talking about being a fan of a team in general
eternal too
He's saying he's a fan of Dynasty so even if they're shit in whatever timelime, he supports them
what
L + fuel beats ur team
if houston win this, this would be the fourth reverse sweep of the kickoff clash qualifiers
what?
this is why fuel fans are not mentally okay
i agree
maybe not justice
all I said is that on a good day they are a fantastic team
TBH
most of the time they are shit tho
ohm
they just have high peaks
that is not what im talking about
?
at all
Justice do, don’t let me and essenzhou taint your perspective
that question was like 3 conversations ago
agree essenzhou
bro this whole time all you were sayin is that they are dogshit 99% of the time lol
I agreed what
kinda fucks
idk what the fuck you are even talking about
tbh you know justice fans
they are mostly bad because
you literally claimed I was a justice fan without me saying it lol
idk
never did
I deeply dislike Decay for reasons I am unsure of
decay simps are extinct in the actual justice fanbase communities
they exist places like r/owl
defraud
i dislike decay since he made shock lose a map to dallas fuel back in early season 3
decay is so weird
lol
like thats all I can say
oh no
I dislike Justice because I haven't forgiven them for what they did to the Titans last year in the lead up to the breadbowl
danteh time
that is true
ah danteh is in, I think they may play doom idk who
doom b hella exploitable
playing doom is a throw
tho
imagine he doesnt play doom
very predictable comp
lol
imagine danteh locks the rein
if he replaces piggy on zar I will fucking die
imagine tho
if he does???
danteh orisa???
ayo?!
just if
yoo wot
I wish orisa would get played ngl
she is fun asf
but like
she is kinda exploitable
lol
idk what they do abouit it lol
yeah
PARIS
WIN
COME ON
DO IT
I'm not even a fan of the Eternal, I just want this to be a day of upsets
same
yeah you can see the difference between how the play with doom and without
its like
for NA at least
so much more organized Iswear
houston look better on this comp than the piggy zarya
yeah
it just looks like they scrimmed one 20x more
vs the other
Holy shit Paris getting rolled
L
I just don't think danteh doom works vs the best teams tbh
like i know doom is figured out at this point but it looks so much better its natt and day
yeah
this difference is insane
thats what happens when you mostly scrim dps doom
.... Did Outlaws use an ult or did they just keep working them in the neutral?
they kinda trapped themselves lol
i didnt see one
Goddamn
they had 5 ults at the end of a 100-0 round so
houston wanted paris to get some map wins
idk why put in daan
like the zar was working for them
they just aren;t good at dive
lol
houston was trolling with piggy
glister yer on paris not london
It really DOES seem like they did nothing but practice Danteh on tank
It's like a completely different team
for them yeah
but idk if it counters better teams
but idk
that wot i mean its their best comp
yeah
watching the difference between piggy bubbles and danteh engage
its not even close
its completely different
Dominant
houston reverse sweep
Just finish it already
i rlly think Houston was trolling or seeing if piggy would work or not
well doom most likely isnt gonna work against the better teams so they needed that zarya player
yea they were prob testing piggy tbh
yeah
its not like they have anything to lose anymore
prob
guranteed qualifier spot
but like ive said before Houston's win con is play to their strengths
and not force a meta they are simply not great at
yeah
lets go
lets hear it for my preds
but the issue is that if the doom comp doesn't work against high rank teams
you kinda half to learn the other stuff
its not like piggy is a dogshit player
Yeah but its paris
or anything
but like
idk
play to your strengths yes
but when you want to win
having some flexibility is prob needed imo
Going all in on a Doomfist comp boxes you in even harder than the London Spitfire's reliance on Rein.
yeah
ohm thats what i said
its worse cause danteh prob wouldn't be good in other tanks
like
at least hadi can play winton
danteh prob wouldn't touch that
and I doubt his zar would be as good as many others
you never know
hopefully for outlaws they can take the time and get their zarya shit good
cause piggy should be very good
or another tank
it just looked disorganized
i mean at the worst he could learn to play zarya Goats made dps play it so i can see him learning it idk
yeah
yeah but zarya goats is like
a very different game
than ow2
Vestola should be able to do more against Doomteh
but the core mechanics are there
its also push
the mechanics but you want flexibility is the issue
we saw the same issue with mirror zarya a bit ago
like
i didnt say that tho
you already know what they are going to play
he maybe can but its prob just better to stick to tank player on tank lol
unless danteh full comits nad becomes a tank player
idk
i mean he doesnt really when merit and pelican are insta locked dps atm
true ig
we'll see
they hopefully incorporate other playstyles better
Glister fucked up his jump lol sad
Kaan is NOT having a good time against this comp
gg
this is just a rip
they sub in the na player
@plush grail nice team
and we win
Who won
good reverse sweep
outlaws will

poor eternal
the second they get off zarya lol
eternal down horenduous
Wub is a genji player?
Danteh doom must be in then
@plush grail hi
they got fucked hard by the schedule
wub genji 💀
pov genji is a shit hero
hes not hes just very feast of famine rn
he can absolutley pop off
but like
when you are paris
get tf\
off genji
lol
who knows
shit team
they can beat outlaws
when they throw on a comp they cannot play
but they have no clue how to counter doom
This is painful to watch
this is murder
😐
pov: you are budget dallas fuel
So jmac dropped the other genji player for this?
Wub has been playing twice as good as naga was
money
Wouldn't it be better to have a spare DPS
this is the opposite of the first map
doesnt paris have to win like 4 fights
Glister was prob expensive
more at this point
well gg
poor paris
That was intense at the end
lol gg
@plush grail get fucked
gg 😐
phew
Paris so ass
this pelican guy kinda good
Bottom tier team
paris how
well yeah
0-6
vestola looks so sad
Hy shit reverse sweeepppp
He was having the time of his life
Wait so
vestola showing us his window
they did look better today
Can Paris playing anything besides zarya comp?
wub was a mistake
Holy fuck that was tight
houston was truly trolling theres nei way
outlaws just need to not play zarya for a while
outlaws are only really good at doom
yeah
so idk
Y'all need to go back and watch paris week 1
I think paris are gonna be good once they get used to it, you cannot tell me they didn't have signs of life
The issue is that top teams can handle Doomteh.
Cause those guys sucked even more
Wub reaper vestola zarya is good
no its that piggy needs the practice
exactaly
it really bullies lower teams
hard
it isnt that houston was trolling
look at that london game
doom comp wont work against everyone
the way danteh plays doom really fucks up low rank teams
Outlaws are like top 5 na
hes SUPER agro
wub is not better than naga
If anything, this game was bad news for Outlaws fans
Honestly, all of the "bad" team have showed that they definetly could be way better, but they're sort of lacking the clutch factor
Because it exposed their weakness
Paris is better then titans (bottom 2)
Well the problem is that wub hast played ow2 before the pick up maybe Naga could have gotten his shit together
for sure
ty danteh for saving my preds
given time they can possibly look much better at other comps
i mean i knew tank was a weakness for Outlaws
I wanna see them get used to the comp for a bit
But this game shows that it's such a big weakness when their tank isn't doom that Paris of all teams managed to do how they did
that photo was awful
its not like paris are awful tho
i mean im not concerned i predicted this
they just need to hard scrim piggy and lean other things
I think the other major issue is that they have nobody to play the 'main tank'
like who there plays monkey or rein
idk if shock had the easiest
So I guess Mayhem 2-3 Justice
shock had the easiest schedule look at it
except their middle games
its still overall easiest schedule
Since 3-2verwatch is in the air
compare it to other teams
yeah
but they dropped a map to vancouver
it really only was glads that was hard game for shock

Sadiators lmao
when they hard trolled lol
fr
They got reverse swept that game, right?
every time
houston was almost a map 5 but they clutched it out
that was defo a troll
lol
2x
the origin of the bastion
proper bastion ult from spawn
the origin was actuallyt peli bastion
I fucking died when I saw that
peli on circit
who did peli play bastion against
The Doomteh is really embodying the "all in" motto
And I sincerely hope when I wake up I see that the Justice have been swept
justice is a coinflip match
shock
why tf
With how fucking aggressive he is
for every game lol
I swear
outside of the top 2 teams in NA
like
who knows
oml no justice is just good on 1/3
sometimes
of all matches
i mean i knew the outlaws were gonna win
yeah
I just bet against justice every time at this point
because every 1/3 of a match happy is the best player in the world
i just had my pred wrong 3-1
its not worth it
i refuse to believe justice will win
and decay hyper carries sometimes
yeah justice probably drop the ball
sometimes
but i still went with 3-2
lol
I swear he has the highest highs
and than
just says
fuc kit
im dogshit now
Even though I really hoped paris would win it was pretty obvious that Houston was still trying to make the zarya work
yeah justice win con is decay hyper carry or they lose super hard ngl
yeah
Because they knew they could dominate with the doomteh
yeah
I was suprised they looked THAT bad on it though lool
the first two maps they were praticing
like we knew it wasn't gonna look good
It's honestly the same with the shock
yeah
but that zarya comp was suprisingly bad
yesterday
yeah
i mean they never played it and they needed the practice since its gonna be played during the tourney
i think they can do fine if they dont run it but they probably will
cause they don't need to sub out a player
they are good at that comp I think it just gets countered
its like the london problem but not as bad
lol
houston beat fuel with doom comp
first week yeah
still beat them
dallas seemed unready for that tho
I think if that game took place today dallas would prob win
but who knows
Also why is glads so low in standings
sparkle looks weird rn
i mean dallas dont play doom so
Is it just because they had a tough road?
professional throwers
on map 3-5
throwiators
if they play as well as they do on first 2 maps on all the maps
imagine
I swear
its like everyone on that team has the issue
of
THEY need ot have the game winning play
so they just split up and do whatever the fuck they want with ults
like astro will 2v4 beat and shit
or kevster will make weird solo flanks to try and kill 3
lol
etc.
glads still better than houston fr
So is nyxl
mf is still trolling 2 hours later 💀
London
reign literally played the doom comp btw
Just abused an ez comp
someone still salty
yeah but they are def worse at it than outlaws
like hawk plays way more passive than danteh
clown
Didn't Atlanta try to run the rein against London and got stomped or did I get that wrong
at this point I can't tell if he is actually real or trolling but i'ma assume the ladder
just don't bother with this mf
hes either trolling or actually dangerously high on copium
like life-threatening levels
the opposite actually
wait they just said there is a way justice has a chance to drop out of top 8
so london could be top 8 Prayge
I honestly just hope they do
because
holy shit
you spelled the wrong word
this team gives me a headache
I think they are eliminated 100%
oh i misheard then
as far as I know
they are they had to 3-1 atlanta
yeah they needed to 3-0
to get in
dang
if only they got lijangg tower lol
It's a race for the dub, between Paris and titans
they couldve won that map too
they needed a 3-1
ok got it
so they wouldve gotten a 3-0
technically yeah
just not illios
I wonder if the series woulda been different
I don't like to like
theory craft that hard
but illios is a very bad map for them
vs lijangg which is easier to run the rien on
Lijiang
btw who wins tomorrow?
glads or atl
glads
3/2 team v 3/2 team
boston coudl take it instead lol
This is gonna be fun
When are playoffs?
its more like
#brickedup
a consitsent middle team
vs
a very who knows what the fuck they can be on a given day justice

True true true
Imagine if Justice were consistent
yeah ig
but not as bad as justice
justice is the peak of wtf
i mean you could be consistently bad too
why they playing from a hotel
given last season maybe
we know how incosistent they were
but this season
there is still time for them to just prove tehy suck ass 100%
lol
how many apex players are left in owl?
great question
wasnt profit lunatic high
was whoru there?
or was he contenders and up?
Was zxi and sparkle also there
nei hair
And whoru was there
element mystic
someone top 3 na mt
decay???
Ngl
yeah
That looked like ping
mag winton diffed
justice look so bad
this team beat ATL too lol
and then they lose to boston
like
wtf
is this
team
like atl - justice - london
they swept atlanta then nothing since
they beat a top 5/3 team then lose to a bottom 3
like atlanta is a pretty decent team overall for the most part
at least like top 6 or so
and then they lose to boston
like
how
if dallas didnt choke against outlaws they could be 6-0 with shock
do you do that
yeah
they were top 3 at the time
sad that fuel lost that match
I believe the battle for texas was too early
I mean its meant to build up hype in opening weekend
and you can't do LA vs 'LA'
Shock V Gladss
batlle of texas are always the first week
dallas dont peak in the first 2 tournaments again 🙏
ig yeah
Battle for california
Didn't teams hey access to ow2 until like few week before the season started
but they wanna spread it out so that there are games within each week that are hype
remember when we had battle for LA
what other rivalries are there?
other than the same state shit
it'll just depend on the season
we did have Philly v Shock
like season 3 philly v shock
Dragons and shock is kinda a rivalry
yeah but within the regular season to make those hype games ig
????
the battle for europe, if both eu teams were good
Justice how wins
Dallas v Shanghai last year
yeah
Sometimes Spark v Charge
how on earth florida
Justice pred looking alive
back before Vancouver org decided
fuck this team
washington got the 15% 
we out
Justice V London is essentially America V England
I mean ig lol
but idk
dragons vs shock makes more sense just because crusty and moon have a personal rivalry imo
I would say Shock v Dallas rn is looking to be the big one
At least seems like it last season
at least in NA
London in the entire western region is basically America vs England
and arguably Glads v Shock/ Fuel
Im just trying to think of cool rivalry's based on the states/countries
crusty being a student of moon
cause those games were good
none of my stuff has anything to do with the teams themselves
shock v fuel is gonna be hype
yeah
Someone fumbled so hard at the end
Ya shock beat dragons play offs two years ago I think then last season dragons picked and beat shock
last year dallas v shanghai was soo good
yeah i forgot about that
those games were usually bangers
playoffs last year were actually gold
in season one, I think fusion v glads was a thing?
everyone joked on it that dragons picked shock first
It was dragons Smurfing last play offs
for worse team
There's one for the justice 2 to go
Ye idk why dragons won two tournaments while beating Dallas and hunters
I mean they are a good ass team
dallas was very close to them
sucks that finals was just dragons in like giga form tho
lol
Dallas got tilted they took the hog out
Then dragons adapted and beat Dallas in the playoffs
imagine joking on that after seeing them wipe hunters
yeah
I think Dallas v Shanghai was still close tho
prob closer than ATL v Shanghai
when fearless went hog it was over
yeah
The thing that crazy is that dragons figured out hunters in like 2 days
Sadge
well they have very similar playstyles
i mean they beat everyone so maybe
yeah lol
justice really lives and dies by defraud
it was barely two days
I mean Dragons prob counters ATL harder than they did Dallas I think
last year
Ya but the match before that was close then hunters beat Dallas went to the final and got swept
By dragons
It scary lmao
i mean if they could sweep shock and only go through the playoffs with only 2 maps lost then nei one was gonna be close
the air emp
yeah idk
I am just taling playstyles
Best emp
not that ATL didn't deserve the win or whataver
it was scary
but
it rlly was insane emp
I think purley speaking ATL is worse into Dragons than Dallas last year
but ATL won fair and square and outplayted the Fuel
in playoffs
yeah
its just playstyles
its funny how reign started and ended the shock era
yeah
also funny how midish they are this year
possibly yeah
started the losers run and ended the losers run
hopefully dallas vs shock is a banger
New*
maybe
if sparkle stops playing so strange
its the truth
