Or they just play Clock on all maps.
Houston current map loss streak stands at 11, if they somehow go down 0-3 they'll tie Boston for the record with 14 maps, 0-4 means they claim the throne with a 15 map losing streak.
Time to bear down and take back control of your season boyz.
Wasn't a 4-0 but all the maps went to extra rounds or max rounds so close enough!
Murder and theft are both crimes, but one will usually get you in more trouble than the other. In this case boosting seems to be a more serious offense and Blizzard reserves the right to judge accordingly.
That being said, the players probably need a Players Association to make sure that their rights and privileges are protected when it comes to discipline, or other topics.
xQc's going to be on an even tighter leash now. He's also going to miss the last 2 weeks of the stage so things are probably gonna be even rougher for Dallas.
TaiRong's warning makes sense, I don't think he had malicious intent and there was a cultural knowledge gap, now he knows.
Timo circa APEX, bount to go on another PMA journey to reform...again I guess?
Silk I had no idea about but he's on notice now so I'm assuming we probably won't hear about this again.
Probably the last update we'll saee from either of them but...

Best grav mind games I've ever seen.
The Kephrii sexting incident that involved Taimou is a good example. I do think people are painting these boys to be more angelic than they actually are so when things like these come out it's mass shock..except for the people that actually know them.
Like you mentioned the league as a whole may or may not be doing enough to help them cope with what is now expected of them on top of the stress of the environment and burnout as you pointed out.
"Behavioral" issues aren't unique to OWL, but the league is the unique position of being an eSport that want to emulate traditional sports in these new more "PC" times where everyone is more exposed than ever thanks to social media and streaming.
Things could get worst before they get better, but hopefully they can figure it out and make the process as painless as possible.
I know they're mostly young adults to late teens but it only feel like I'm watching a bunch of kids bicker and troll, some being worst than others. Twitch streams, and the ability for anything to be remotely taken out of context, just seem to add fuel to this juvenile shitstorm.
Edit: And let's not forget the Media or cesspool that is Reddit, overreacting to absolutely anything, fact or not.
It's unfortunate but these are the growing pains that the league, the players and the orgs will just need to move past if this is going to be more than just a fad.
I'm looking forward to seeing what they do. EQO played well last week but that was against arguably weaker teams that had been struggling as of late. This week they're playing two big teams so do you play the young upstart or the more established veteran?
My gut feeling is that they go with SDB but I'm excited to see what they end up doing.
Oh, and I think this'll b e a 3-1 for Seoul.
Leaving or being removed are basically the only reason a person is no longer with a team so that's a pretty vague statement. I'd love to see any links to where you would have gotten that information though.

Biggest non jebait while being an actual jebait of all times.
Jokes aside though, good for him. More stability for him to do what he seems to be enjoying without the environment that he doesn't want to go back to as he's mentioned several times.
Not in NA yet.
I don't know how many people got that, but I gave you my upfrag so fast it broke the internet.
Nexix has been one of the most consistent players for this squad, so I honestly believe that Xepher would be a downgrade. I'm also not too sure about sitting Babybay, but you could have Sinatraa, Danteh and Babybay cycle in and out depending on needs.
They could use an upgrade for Nomy much like Fissure was for iRemix and possibly another support (maybe 2?) that can flex in for Dhak, and releive sleepy if he needs rest.
Trade away IDDQD if you're not going to use him.
Probably because Linzr is a much better option for flex DPS.
So, I'm not a fan of Jake. In general he rubs mw the wrong way and I have trouble hearing him talk for more than a few minutes at a time.
That being said I do think he is legit a top tier DPS player. What puts him there is his game brain, imo. Mechanically I only see his Junkrat being top tier, with Genji/Pharah being "OK" because he does his job at a serviceable level on those Heroes. His Tracer is a bit weak but he can and does help his team finish the job but is unlikely to carry the game from his own plays or initiation.
He's good because he works well with his team and does what needs to be done. The team looks more coordinated when he's in and overall results show that Houston as a team is a forced to be reckoned with.
As much as I want to say otherwise you have to give it to the squad, they're pretty damn good, and consistent.
Don't forget to put site suggestions threads like this one under "Site Discussion".
Also, ALL HAIL GOD KING ENIGMA!
Maybe SHD should look into getting Eileen and Shy (at least) in their Contenders team and sign them to OWL once they're of age. They basically have a monopoly on Chinese players so I think it's unlikely that other teams would want to snipe them or cause a bidding war...
Redundancy is actually pretty important in this league. If Tobi was the one who had gotten sick instead of Bunny they would have been completely unable to play Lucio. I'm assuming he'll mostly be on the bench other than when they want to rest their main Lucio player while allowing them to run their internal scrims with Jehong, Tobi, Gido and Gambler as the full support team.
Not the most obvious choice but I do think it's a good one in the long run.
I'm thinking Brigitte could be playing the same role Effie did when they came out with Orisa. She could have designed the weapon for someone else, seeing how she maintains Rein's suit and what not.
Basically I'm saying I don't think it'll be Brigitte, even though I kinda want it to be.
Edit: There's apparently a leak from Blizzard Japan's marketing manager so I might very well be dead wrong

Fixed, thank you!
Less then sleeping on Boston I think they looked much less coordinated on that last match than they had in the previous stage.
HOU is fresh off of a win against the stage 1 playoff champions so you have to give them the edge here. It's up to Boston to prove otherwise.
Problem is that there's always an escort map played in every single match.
Word's been sent!
From what I heard he's a pretty nutty tank yeah.
Which teams will come howling back to the top, and which ones will cry fowl and they fall from the skies?
They never learned to play with, around and against Mercy. I think they'll look better regardless, but I'm Seoul superfan so i'm insanely biased.
Your reddit post makes the jokes easier to understand. FeelsBadMan
Not seeing this be any worst than any other forum. What I mean is that the posts there should be Comp related so there's still going to be a higher number of them that are relevant.
Official Forums for the comp community:
https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/overwatch/c/competitive-discussion
I take it as a positive step towards fixing comp since there will be much no noise coming from players of the other modes of play.
Harsha's tweet seemed to indicate that not having Fl0wer in Contenders could prevent his price from going wild since Contenders teams must have a clause that allows players to be picked up by OWL teams.
The bidding war he'd insight probably would have been one for the ages.

WhoRU on NA ping is disgusting. RIP anyone who gets in his way.
I take it back. Right TBD is fucked.
Are you hecking kidding me? Right TBD's on a tear right now. They're gonna send Left TBD straight to the loser's bracket.
How so? He didn't want to join London because he wanted to play for Seoul instead.
He retired from Overwatch

Edit 1: I was too lazy to put a detailed explanation so I'll just say that the changes I put were mostly because of the meta change and the chance that both tanks and dive will be viable.
Edit 2: Also, Mayhem and Dragons pickups may not be available for a while due to possible VISA issues
At this point I think I just downfrag and ignore...
Normally I take GM/OWL Staff denials with a grain of salt since they could be trying to close the deal, but in this case Gambler himself sounds pretty adamant that nothing is happening.
I'm guessing that talks could have taken place but that no agreement was reached, if said talks even happened.
Geoff clarified how this works
Oh shit lol, wall hacks when below 100% health?
