this tourney is going to be wild
lol
What the first match?
haha as if u think ur gonna see the meta from a london game
Mayhem v Spitfire
london vs mayhem matchup between the two NA teams that punched up far
where did mayhems tracer go?
hope i see it from mayhem
kek
NYXL
where did mayhem's tracer go
i assmue tracer player
(yaki)
and he was wondering why yaki was not there
how do u even know they are going to play tracer?...
Poko Pog
are they running sig then
we don't know
no chadi
presumably
just saying their tracer player isnt there
insta loss first match
wait how good is sigma if even london r running it
poko in so Ig sig is meta ๐
which map is it
mayhem gonna win?
how u know poko is playing sig
ilios
ah yes 1 map = meta
ilios
what if poko rolls out on the wrecking ball
pokooooo
sig would be an absolute troll
what if poko absolute fucks
hadi plays wheel tho ???
poko is off tank so it seems to make sense theyd play sig
Dva has been played a lot on Ilios
he plays dva on lighthouse
Poko in makes sense
my guess would be dva if they don't want to put poko on monkey or doom
that too
but but xzi
but
:(
actaully it's in spaw nso
idk why they would do that
xzi is in korea still isnt he?
no
So uh
its uh sigma
arrived usa
lmao
i think hes in florida now
sigma on ilios is odd
you're lying
Shock or dallas gonna win?
SOJOURN????
it's brig zen sigma soujourn tracer
if xzi was in NA he would be benching everyone on florida right now
they have to be trolling
he's in NA
unless they're trying to run some kind of sojourn poke comp
sojourn meta
ball????????
I boarded the plane, and the weather got bad just before I left. I haven't started in an hour
I'm so happy hahahahahahahhahahahahahha
923
ball 
trollge
that's him going on the plane, not him arriving
ball
what if his plane had a turnaround
or was shot down by a syrian missile
i mean
But echo is still in, so all good
is for florida
what are mayhem doing
do we even know where "Atlanta airport" is?
yeah I don't get the ball pick
with bap
He is in America
in atlanta???
do we even know where "atlanta" is?
sojourn meta?
if florida's comp is meta
shut up memeicus please
shd might be crazy good again
and not in the middle of the atl ocean
i wish i could be more like someone 
its also one of the busiest airports
yep dva
there's an atlanta ocean??
atlantic*
oh fuck I forgot about zen's fucking 225
oh wait, ball have the knockback back
sojourn meta 
nobody calls it the atlanta ocean
yeah
its the atlantic*
neither can coluge
mikeyy can
ew
however
reiner ball enjoyer
if you can't roll through a zen without getting kicked then that is an important interaction
dude
If ball is so good then I don't get why they not playing Hadi
double fs meta 
forgot how that sphere from sojourn is annoying as balls
cause Hadi has competent ball
because they decided to play sig
and they think the dva is serviceable apparently
Maybe the ball is not asgood
who knows honestly
first map
poko bomb pausechamp
zen 225 is silly i think
zen 225 is fucking dumb
shax still almost one clipped sirmajed in the last fight
at that point idk why you wouldn't play doom
Give Tracer 225
i made a mistake didn't i predicting mayhem

doom prob gets farmed
by bap zen
please no
or brig zen
ball into brig zen = afk
apparently sojourn is played
ye
soldier gutted
Is that why hadi isn't playing
she got a 1s decrease on her mobility
first week back always seems kinda sloppy
cause it is
esp when you're watching two bad teams
London good silence
sigmale
SUB IN XZI
checkmate pog
revert ball grapple pls
TRUE
gengo deleted
sub him in next map

tracer has been playable in so many metas
which is good
we want heroes to be like that
tracer is one of the most useful heroes
Brig 1.0
Brig is why we have 2-2-2
Brig is why we have 5v5
Shax do be gaming
yes
shax gaming indeed
shax as usual doing the funny tracer
sojournnnnnnnnnnnn
ahh
okay
that makes sense
thank god i was so tired of the monkey genji soldier
what did I just watch
c9
Am I just dumb or is shax just mid
I mean
hope this match is quick so we can get to the cracked teams
he is mid
specifically the 2nd game
nobody on london spitfire is a good player
The Sparkr Carry is unreal
either mid or below
shax is usually pretty good on tracer
he's been getting a lot done most of the game
Lies
got unlucky with the camera on him when he inted
SparkR is the only one and Shax is upper mid
any player on london there's probably 10 players or more better than them at their position
nobody on london can be considered good
lack of brain
Poor landon
Poor london not having a real flex support
Yes.
yeah
Cool
Quite dodgy I heard
sasin play zarya, marvel plays main tanks + sigma (hopefully we never see dva)
apparently haker isnt an official player?
I don't like this bap
I assume they're running it for someone's ball
but it feels like more of a liability than an asset rn
What are Mahyem doing
Getting tank diffed
EZ
This leave the supports on their own agaisnt a DVA
WOOOH
yee lets go
LETS FAKN GO LNDN
I mean
LETS GOOOOOOO
I did say that dva only works if they run bap or some shit
GR GR
London Midseason madness champions
Think thats the first time I've called it it's proper name this tourny
London is so fun to watch
either hybrid or escort
seoul are on a 1 tank
have they been relying on smurf's doom at all
from what I watched they mainly just wanted the zar and monkey
smurf doesn't need an OT player
i havent seen much smurf doom but i dont think it worked
I'd be very surprised if smurf doom worked
smurf also has the advantage of already being a nutcase on monkey
Cause the Social media managers of these accounts are just paid trolls
so he can focus more on other shit
yeaj
having like hadi/poko as your tanks means you gotta spend a bit more time making sure the monkey is clean if you wanna run it
or, say, coluge
coluge was OT and decently played winton
omg guys merch drop so you can announce to the world how much of a masochistic loser you are irl
except when he shouldnt dive
I mean
I will get a spitfire shirt
if you want to prep a rush and fix up coluge's monkey
it's just so much to work on at once
eich hmm
WHY IS HADI NOT PLAYING ๐ญ
they might be committing to the brig/zen backline
yeah
lucio's self-healing got shredded this patch
I wanna see the rein rush tho
so he's not as free as he was last patch
if you're not playing lucio you're not playing rush
I really don't like this bap
like
who is he lamping
Speed walk
lol ball's half hp and cut off from rupal already anyway
surely if you're going to ball you need a brig
not like it won a championship or something
surely florida dropping their OT player as soon as OTs become meta was a good idea
wait did they
Mayhem need to play Adam, oh wait, THEY DROPPED HIM THE FUCKING DUMBASSES
LOL
they dropped adam a couple days ago
you saw it?
I saw that there was drama but didn't care
I know he died but I retract what I said about shax
lel
They dropped adam because he wasnt playing
typical ball player feeds KEK
omg lamp did so much
he never played
LMAO https://twitter.com/Spitfire/status/1537516907607207937?ref_src=twsrc^google|twcamp^serp|twgr^tweet
Spitfire just destroyed Mayhem on SM
why is the logo so low definition
sig/bap makes more sense
idk
does london 3-0 mayhem lmao
but that is savage
poggers bap buff
so um
nice field
instantly full hp
is kariv that bad?
kariv coaching now
welp my pred is looking terrible
Dropped adam after not playing him and informed him he was being dropped in the tweet telling them xzi had joind the team in florida
yezh
great start ๐ญ
agre
I think i put it for 3-2 spitfire
I would cry
Is this the first match?
yes
yes
Yes
why are you copying that high
second map tho
what
lol
london going to sweep
I did it like 20 mins ago I forgot
bruh
um
Mayhem
Spitfire are too good
he fucking copies out of range of his m1s
๐
the fuck you doing
Defat
can't hit his rock followup
Also busan is a hybrid
the devs confirmed afterwards this was a placeholder
but they are planning to "revisit" hanamura
hanamura is still there ?
"not accurate representation" but may revisit
all the times are the same too
^
and the dates are in the future
how the fuck does sparkr just walk up like that
surely Hanamura has to be in PvE
what
it's so beautiful
we need a replay system
Revisit temple of Anubis lmao
I need to see how fucking troll this game is
so why do they talk about game repoirt but don't actually show it
they dont, they had in the previous
on twitch they did
ohhh right
why did shax jumpshot and then just spaz out
you could watch player povs at least
but that was scuffed as fuck
literally just a bunch of player and static povs
not actual in-game viewer like cs has
there was, you just nstalled the owl game from launcher and watched your favourte player
that was like s3?
I'm gonna say it right fucking now Checkmate>Yaki
no
no
I think checkmate was the genji I was pleasantly surprised by
but checkmate very good this year
I was messing around lmao
goddamn Hydron
literally benched by yaki
When he was a rookie
better be
i feel that sojourn sphere is too big
u are bowol right
shax boomed singlehandedly by hydron
I honestly think Checkmate=Yaki
Yes
ok noted
I am Bowol the Mayhem superfan
wtf
hydron is taking shax's lunch money
shax is getting dominated
for real
landon diff
florida need to get someone on sig
ez
LETS GOOOO
preds dead already
new record
if they only had a off tank player
Spitfire sweep
XZI>Checkmate
if only
reverse sweep 
wonder if this is what Fuel play
this is payback for fucking adam over
watch fuel still play zar
Sparkle Tracer, Edison/Guriyo Soujorn?
I love the Mayhem but I agree
Brig Zen so far still seems viable
justice is erved
so that's fine for Chiyo Fielder
discord is always waiting to be viable
justice is erved
praying dallas sweeps
erved indeed
I can't see it in a meta that on paper could be weaker for them and better for Shock
but I still think until proven Fuel are the better team
unless florida just suck and bap zen is actually the pick
I have not seen them actually run fearless well yet this season
midless
they have literally anything they need
literally played like 20 minutes this szn
yeah
cause hanbin zarya mvp
and those 20 minutes were awful
how dare you
then they just stopped trying
Already roasting them for dropping Adam let's go 
its the truth
against houston when the whole team was shitting the bed
they just havent got a good comp yet for fearless
oh you're draw
its physically not possible for fearless to drop down 2 tiers in 1 offseason
any time I've seen fearless in I have not been impressed
I can see Fuel maybe going Rush
sparkle has also looked shaky on the genji as well
fearless has struggled yeah
i think they're continuing with zarya
god I hope not
in fairness, the maps he's played he's had Guriyo who needs to step up
I think Fearless has actually been playing well
has Fearless played any maps where Guriyo hasn't been in
apart from the first game against Outlaws
yeah its a comp and players not playing as good thats the problem
no like
first games are usually weird
guriyo plays widow fearless plays monkey
his synchronization with the rest of the fuel has just been not great
so sojorn just replace soldier then lol
yeah my point is Guriyo hasn't been great so far so even if Fearless has been doing well individually (which I think he has, the mechanics are still clearly there), his winrate is skewed by playing with Guriyo
No XZI???
plan > mechanics
imagine if dallas kept xzi
if you aren't able to sync up with your team then gg
Dropped adam for nothing
rip
this is so cursed
Even cursed now
there we go
has that early hog hook ever worked
yes
Once
ur joking
nope
Shock i think
think it was like the first time it was done
shock on hanamura vs glads
I don't remember tbh
did a player really have such bad positioning
so since then teams have clocked onto it
hydron is owning
space played a map??
Happened this year as well didn't it
Hydron hard carrying
the bap probably works better on 1st since they can bunker down in server to get value of lamp and shift
tracer brig/bap zen
happy szn with sojourn
guess we're back to ow1
also isn't adam a sigma player
if they lose 1st and keep the bap they are straight trolling
omg hydron is so chad
hydron is fucking
They better give landon mvp if london wins
why a Lucio?
Reverse sweep
recontest ig
I swear we see so much point A hold on Gib
as it turns out
because its a dumb map
if you run two characters that make it impossible to walk through hallways
on a map where attackers have to run through hallways
it's kinda good
Gib is one of my favourite maps as it's so good for Winston and double bubble stuff
is monkey just that bad or sig that bad
it's crazy how like 0 mobility heroes are being played on gibraltar
most likely it means that zen is so busted it's impossible to overcome
so what all changed in the patch
That felt slow
3-2 still in there
Where is Hadi rush
This felt slower than the most of other OWL games so far
brickedup
shu skewed gonna be strong in this meta
i mean the mid-low team
worried about whether pati will be able to pick up sojourn
You go from dive to brawl
well it is mirror poke
Double Flex support seams really strong
so
if you watch top team matches is other thing
sig/zen
So viol2t Zen or Bap?
mayhem are preferring the bap over the brig
god i cant wait to see the double fs
and even if they play brig viol2t has a sick brig
viol2t back to brig jail
Wasn't viol2t brig top3 last season
smile
i think so
praying for the reverse sweep
funny thing is i think i wouldve voted 3-2 london for the meme
Wait ow2 getting rid of loot boxes?
ur team sucks
0-6\
apparently
OMEGALUL
it's going in the direction that'll help it succeed as a game
did any here receive tokens?
maybe not top 3 but still very good
I have yeah
Lol
I want this dub so bad
Sometimes take a while to show up
Backbone be looking at the past and future at the same time because he can't look a the present lmao
why
because it is poke lmao
in poke u wiat for picks
Sombra is just the worst
Because it's funny
?
rein vs sojourn looks like a throw pick tbh
hydron seems good on sojurn
bye admiral
????
what did hadi try to shatter
shield legit does the exact opposite of helping ur team
Ball
ur playing vs sojourn and echo, sojourn farms for beam and echo shreds shield
checkmate ._.
exactly
yep
I akready miss ana winston lol
This it what happens when u bring otps on your team
feelsbad
like cmon
theres no way hadi doesnt have a tiny bit of experience with literally any other tank
right
ik zen and bap were weak asf but man I don't wanna go back to ow1 meta v2
i feel like london wasnt aware that sojourn can farm off rein shield lmao
idk why they go soldier tbh hes not nearly as strong
hadi ball is okay
feels like they don't do enoguh damage sometimes
he doesnt need something thats as goo
d
he jus needs something else
someone 
this is a coaching diff
who the fuck swaps in your rein 1 trick against the florida comp
they win 2, then lose a single round and decide to swap
how does that make any sense
yeah i think its more that the other might not want to play around a ball/ cant
if thats the case they shouldnt be in owl lmao
if u dont wanna play around ball
ur legit throwing
my 3-2 pred for florida is looking good
uh oh
No no no
if they swap hadi they win
idk the meta so far isn't my fav to watch
hes so useless in this meta
its fine but idk
if they keep in hadi vs a sojourn they throw
agreed it's more slow paced
I like watching winton and zarya more tbh
prob yeah
i like the meta when its sojourn vs sojourn
reverse sweep time
but mainly because like
hadi needs the meta to be reversed back
we just came out of a year and a half spam meta in ow1
I really am not excited to watch just hte ow2 version of that lol
too late now
yeah ig
oasis isnt the worst for rein but still
I think if it was a better rein meta could be more fun to watch ngl
rein v rein is fun
rein meta would be boring imo in 5v5
seems like there is no monkey or rein being played
but i guess that depends on who in dps would be meta
what are ur thoughts on shock v dallas
honestly shock should look better
shock vs dallas is a coinflip
cause of double flex supp
i have fuel winning tho
yeah I have Fuel 3-2
i just want coluge to
but wouldn't surprise me if Shock win
and coluge was an ot player in the past so maybe his sigma is diff tho
idk
we'll see
His Sigma is Top 5 Legaue
that's for sure
yeah i think it could go either way but its a 3-2
hope they revert either the zen extra 25 hp or that ridiculous bap heal change
cause its gonna kill dive lol
hadi stays in?
oasis
I feel like the poko sigma worked better ngl
makes sense
ah oasis
true
but I feel like 2 of the maps on oasis outside of university are prob better for ball no?
surely Sparkr could've mirrored the soujorn and still played rush?
Fuck it hadi still in
idk rein is pretty matched on every map of oasis
ngl i think Dva would be the worst meta in 5v5 i rather see ball/monkey
I'd think so
uh I think they wanted something to possible contest the echo?
only rein
I mean tbh thats likely just like a just in case pick tbf
at least i think hes a rein main
mikeyy is not a rein main
I doubt he would immediatly play either way
he is a ball main
london is like reverse dallas
I mean
ah
tbh i didnt really look into it i jus saw a single rein clip of him
and his banner on twit
and assumed.
kinda not that crazy
Not this horse, apparently
Spitfire compitisiton diff
woo bap zen again...
chadi
LMAO hadi
And he has shatter for next team fight
...
ChrisTFer lowkey backseat gaming for Hadis shatter
Whiff
BIG SHATTER
ok whatever
i feel like rein is only good for this one map bc of how small it is

yeah
hadi was giving them hope, everyone
if london win landon match mvp im expecting
whiffing his ult so they would rush on point 
okay this one
London has certainly upgraded, time to put them above Chorongto Defiant
mayhem should not lose
landon is usally better when blizz accidentally gives bap a team wide armor pack real quick
lol
so now on ball
hadi on ball
rough map for rein
let's see
no way
na imortality field
idk the bap is prob just better imo
maybe its just me
but without hte stun from brig
I think the big heal from bap
on the shift
is really good
to sustain
could be wrong tho idk
chadi
chadi
chadi
rupal's windows have been questionable
welp there goes that fight
LMFAO
yeah but tbf its prob more awkward to bap ult in this mirror
everything was questionable from rupal that fight
everything is so fast moving
someone?
backbone lowkey decent on that echo
london should win this next map with rein
mm
idk about that
its easier than this map but next map is still pretty good for ball
its not like university
i think they could win it on this one
they could win but it will be rough
idk I think they might need to revert bap change tho imo
qualifiers already on the line
first game of the quarterseason ๐
Rein

good way to structure a tournament yes
wait what
how many games are being played before next tournament
i think around the same amount
what does the sojourn ball thing do?
backbone lol
slows and damages enemies
mayhem..
the point is midseason madness qualifying relies on the whole season so far
yeah i think its 6
like tick over time dmg?
not just the MM qualifiers
yes
zen bapt is so shit vs rein
spitfire are playing very well this round
they get ran at and die
soujourn just feels too weak
eh kinda
gg
lmao gg
tbf any support comp would without lucio
Ohm said it wouldnt be easy
chadi be chad
LOL
chadi
Actual chad

give landon mvp

fucking chadi
I like how hadi has just become such a fan favorite
mf legit just fucking walked out
FUCKING LETS GOOO
FUCK YOU FLORIDA
CHADI SHATTER WAS FIRE
JUSTICE FOR ADAM
I think a lot of it is how much he got criticised last season
chadi has complete the plat rein card
Actual fucking gigachad
that was 100iq
so people want his redemption arc
Hadi isnt the best monkey/ball but hes not bad at them
so funny this is what i predicted
lets not put hadi alone in the spotlight
welp I was wrong
lol and people want rein to have 3 second shatter
O FUCK
then 3-2 fuel
oh fuck I totally forgot pick ems
backbone was shitting on them too
i forgot my preds
I had 3-1 Florida
I had 3-1 london
Yeah Backbone's Mei is nasty
same
i had 3-2 fla
Hadi you beautiful bastard
did landon get mvp?
yeah
yea
yes
i knew it
Winning team always gets mvp
i would ngl its justice
i know'
not always
YO wait they played POKO
happy sojourn was believed to be the best in the league in scrimbucks
thats why i hate predicting justice to win
so im coping on that
first 2
man i completely forgot about OWL today
lol
I mean what do fuel have in this meta lol
Which maps did poko play on?
I guess hanbin zarya
zarya ig
but guriyo........
??
no Hanbin Sig
hanbin is a top 2 sig
hanbin sig yeah
Brig Zen
then Sparkle Tracer Guriyo/Edi Soujorn?
Should I buy owl cards?
So uh
Where purple/glads themed luchador reaper skin we were promised
yeah but its Guriyo...
Fielder Chiyo Brig Zen is great
Hanbin is cracked
the only question mark from dallas is sojourn imo
Sparkle Tracer is good
hanbin is cracked
i assume when original skin leaves
and ball i guess but they don't need to play ball
Sparkle tracer is good but vs like kevster and proper idk
Dallas isn't gonna play meta
I just feel like guriyo would not work out well
unless they wanna keep forcing reaper ig
They probably play rush or something
if anyone could make zarya work it would be Fuel
but that would be weird if rush is now even stronger with bap buff
Hanbin is just THAT good
yeah i feel like Dallas are gonna run a echo ngl
4-0
New Dallas fans, any bold statements before the match??
