    I like how at the end of that clip, rather than shielding, he just goes for the shatter

    They've been running a bunch of EU pro pugs on the new PTR patch and the biggest takeaway so far seems to be that Asking should probably be playing in OWL already

    By increasing degree of ridiculousness:

    A trap is for fish: when you've got the fish, you can forget the trap. A snare is for rabbits: when you've got the rabbit, you can forget the snare. Words are for meaning: when you've got the meaning, you can forget the words.

    Best part of that (other than the actual best) is McCree stunning him well after it was clear they were both already dead, and him technically getting credit for the kill.

    Sideshow has made a terrible mistake

    https://clips.twitch.tv/EvilNastyJayItsBoshyTime

    He only had like 900 subs so he felt pretty safe, but he's already gained like 200 and he's like oooooh noooooooo

    there's a gifted subs train going on in his stream right now, he's like another 100 closer to being a zero eyebrow andy

    edit: and he is losing his mind over it

    Sideshow's been doing a mini-tournament of teams made up of OWL talent twitch subs and I think he would be much more effective if he stopped trying to shoot opposing Pharahs.

    been watching some Open Division games- if y'all remember RichRad, who had a clip that went viral a while back of him casting a game over voicechat as he was playing in it, he's casting these games now which is so cool to see

    For those who don't know, ChipSa is a toxic Doomfist one-trick. It's a baffling decision.

    Edit: Actually, I guess that video mostly covers it. They just forgot to include most of the toxicity.

    an interesting decision by the Fusion.

    Ugh chipsa is suuuch a toxic asshole, he's only really good on Doom, and even then he's only really good in the chaos of ladder. For a team already suffering from underperforming DPS, this is an absolutely baffling move.

    I have to assume the Fusion is looking for a face for the franchise. Why that face though

    1. It's Philly so duh.
    2. I want to see VAN fall apart now with their new dramallama.

    Starting a timer till Fissure throws a fit and benches himself/"retires" again. He'll be fine as long as a) he starts every game and b) the Titans keep winning. Take either of those away and watch him blow it all up again.

    Something I didn't realize: ChipSa's brother is one of Philly's coaches.

    Edit: Hopefully that isn't why he's on the team, but it's a bad look for Philly.

    Going in the other direction, Bumper is no longer with Vancouver.

    This leaves Fissure as the only main tank on Vancouver so let's take odds on how long until Vancouver no longer has a main tank.

    Hmm, Bumper is probably better than OGE, but their tank lineup is pretty solid atm. I'd love to see him there if the price wasn't too high, but there's always been a question how good he'd be on a team that doesn't dump 100% of their resources into him.

    I really don't get Vancouver's moves here

    Their whole strat was picking up an intact, successful team that had won tournaments and had thrived in multiple metas. Bumper's playstyle may be unorthodox but all of his teammates had years of experience with him.

    Picking up ryujehong and Fissure are both upgrades on paper, but the potential downsides are so high...

    A trap is for fish: when you've got the fish, you can forget the trap. A snare is for rabbits: when you've got the rabbit, you can forget the snare. Words are for meaning: when you've got the meaning, you can forget the words.

    Seems like the typical NFL/NBA draft day issues: Owners think that they can just buy their way to the top with money and star power. *cough*Lakers*cough*.

    I don't see how Ryujehong is an upgrade over Twilight, who was arguably the best flex support of season 2. Also, Fissure's good, but seems unreliable.

    These Titans trades are awful.

    Speaking of awful decisions, the D.Va statue is 25% off, plus I had a 10% off code...

    But, iirc, OGE is a chud.
