    Word on the street is Spitfire is rolling scrims, I swear if we get a repeat of last year...

    Shanghai always performed really well in scrims in the first season.

    Spitfire is the poster child for feast or famine. They're very good at clutching things out, and also very good at fumbling right before the goal line. And scrim performance is pretty much a meme at this point, so hopefully things will stay as competitive as they have been.

    Someone find Xepher and his scrimbuck stash.

    Molten variables hiss and roar. On my mind-forge, I hammer them into the greatsword Epistemology. Many are my foes this night.

    Oh I'm sure it will still be competitive, the level of play is way higher this season. I'll just be annoyed if they win it all after slacking all season again

    did my support placements and went 4-1 and placed 80 sr higher than my career peak, FeelsGoodMan

    i know it's end of beta and all, idk if it was because we had less games to play or just lucked out or what, but every one of those games had communicative, cooperative players and even the loss was an intense 5-6 on havana

    gonna try and knock out tank games later tonight and DPS tomorrow

    You know Harbleu is like one of the few OW streamers I can watch these days.

    Mainly cause he's one of the few who still earnestly enjoys playing it, compared to all the folks who obviously don't have much fun with it anymore but also don't want to stop cause its their main revenue source.

    One of the main reasons I generally don't follow streamers especially single game streamers. They get burned out and it just becomes a drag.

    Oh no the playins start so late, I just got my sleep schedule back so that's going to have to be no. But I'll post my predictions
    4-2 Charge win
    4-1 Dragons win

    It's hard to predict when it's a whole new meta.

    Dragons might be good in this meta. They have a great Doomfist, and in this boring as shit double barrier meta he's the one of the only heroes that can actually have an impact in neutral fights.

    But their other two DPS are Pharah and Widow one-tricks.

    Their third DPS is a Doomfist one-trick so it's ok.

    I think Dragons won't make it out of playins, I'm predicting them over Fusion because Fusion is just not very good. I'm not sure who will make it out of playins, although I'm hoping Spitfire doesn't cash out those scrimbucks

  • Options

    Fusion is pretty rough but Carpe has such strong carry potential against mid-table teams and Shanghai looked so rough in stage 4 that I think I have to give the nod to Fusion.

    That being said, with Sigma in the mix who the fuck knows what's gonna happen.

    Apparently you can play the same map twice?

    E: Apparently an issue with Numbani. Teams got to pick from a previous map instead.

    oh my god this series is a nightmare

    playing a map twice is explicitly against the rules, and eichenwalde is still in the map pool? but numbani was bugged again and unselectable so they just shrugged and played king's row twice??????

    Oh god, I just realized that whichever team wins this has to play London in 12 and a half hours. Less than that if it goes on any longer.

    They might swap those matches. At least, they probably should.

    why on earth is there a match going on so late/early?

    Was it delayed?

    edit: wait nevermind

    I thought it was bizarre and unlikely that a match would be going on right now but the OWL site and Twitch channel both said "LIVE", and the schedule page claims it's happening right now as well

    Not confusing at all guys, well done

    Can anyone confirm if enemies suspended in the air by Sigma's ult count as on/contesting the point? Because I'm pretty sure I just stole a win by lifting up two opponents who were trying to stall

    No, they're too high up, you need to be careful if you don't have Orisa to plonk down
