LG Evil players search for new homes

Thank you our glorius leader

This is NRG though, I'm prepared for a roster reveal, a lot of hype, then disappointing results and several more months of silence

According to official NRG and Rogue ranked game, NRG used to be top1 NA before game against East Wind in AMM (joke of course).

Seriously now: I won't believe until I see it

So it sounds like LG is definitely not done in overwatch. That is good to hear.

Everyone on our team was the reason for our success. A lot of times Super and Jake were flashier because almost of all our team play focused on giving them resources (peel/heals) more than our other players while Train was expected to do his job with minimal resources, all while Rob/Voll/Myself had to ensure those players were enabled so we stayed quiet.

We were great because we were a team first and foremost don't forget that in Overwatch.

I would like to "correct" (at least in my opinion from viewing almost all of the teams games). Jake is a phenomenal player with massive mechanical ability. When you have a player like that the team's strategy is built around the player. I can think of multiple examples of this. Think Taimou, or Dafran etc. The main goal of some teams is to prioritize keeping their mechanically gifted player alive and in the proper position to do what they do best. I believe Jake to be a part of this meta. While Jake has the appearance of being a flexible player he has largely been force to play the Meta hero due to his mechanical skill. You even see it in the world cup where he will basically be playing soldier almost all of the time. While I agree that Jake is one of the most mechanically gifted players in OW. I disagree wholeheartedly in the quality of his flexibility. Players like Train, Sinatraa, Emongg, Surefour, Tseini, and most of the players on misfits are huge pickups for any team looking for players with a wide pool of heroes. Jake misses the cut on that one. More flexible players will always be desired as they can shift with the meta. We shall see if the next meta dumps anyone off to mediocrity or causes them to rise a new superpower.

I actually agree that Jake's tactical effectiveness lies in the relatively high number of characters and comps he allows his team to choose from. From what I've seen his most effective pick is Soldier with varying amount of effectiveness on Genji and Pharah, but as for Reaper it's a pick almost all Pros can whip out since his mechanics are relatively simple.

I do think though that the overall level of his non Soldier picks are what keep me from declaring him truly flexible like let's say a Tviq, though I don't think there's anything wrong with that because, in my opinion, his tactical knowledge and the way he can execute on those tactics is what make him such a good player.

Now, even Train isn't a carry Tracer to the level of let's say Sinatraa or Logix, he's skilled to the point of requiring almost no resources and still being able to get the job done on top of being able to flex to other picks whenever the team needs it. I think the team was strong because they complemented each other's strengths and weaknesses so I don't think it's entirely fair to single one of the other out as the carry or being less than.

In the end I think it's highly likely that most if not all of these guys can find their way into OWL in one way or another, lots skill and intelligence in this squad.
