GC Busan is for sure a good team, but they're not the gods that everyone's hyping them up to be. They're good, but overrated. Regardless, FW winning this would still be a surprise, but I don't see it being a floor mop either.

GC Busan 3-1 Flash Wolves

Amazing how different everything is now, simply a couple months later. Within the past month, I think the top 10 rankings should look something like this (funny how most of these teams will be disbanded or in OWL with new names haha):

10) I can't decide between Faze/Misfits/Flash Wolves
9) C9 Kongdoo
8) 1246
7) GC Busan
6) Ardeont
5) Gigantti
4) RunAway
3) Miraculous Youngster
2) Envyus
1) Lunatic-Hai

Do ur placements already

Cuz it's my thread and people tend to like my threads

Younger, yes, but my genji is better than urs and u know it haHAA

Its the new generation of players coming, and only the very best of the old gods staying in the scene. I expected it to happen this way.

Good for you kid, I'm proud of you

Except they are fixing spectator mode, and they're gonna have incentives for non e-sports fans to watch, unless you haven't been paying attention for the last few months.

It'll get viewers.

Surefour/Hydration/Carpe would be a great DPS trio

Scrubasaurus has grown a third of a star from his puns n' jokes

I actually love it

POIGCHAMP

Awesome!

As a New Yorker I wouldn't

I hope they're not the New York team. Could see them combining into the London team though.

I have a feeling it's New York, but I just personally don't think they are a good fit, and won't even be consistently good.

You beat Scrubs to it, what's he gonna do now?

We'll find out rosters soon enough.

Good for him. Wish I had the ability or supportive parents to spend more time on overwatch. Currently still can't climb out of gold because it's the most toxic horrible place on earth.

That was some real ptsd

RUNAWAY FIGHTING LETS GOOOO

It's just hard to play him in the current setting of the meta, and unless you're a god, it's hard to get great value out of his blades.

GO RUNAWAY

Cocco and his face

Woo

Waiting for Scrubasaurus article

Accounts everywhere is like 50 LUL

Sounds like a restaurant

i found ur youtube channel i like it

:toxic:

All maps are close, but RunAway finally runs away with a victory with a 4-2 win.

I've decided to make a part 2 to my much beloved thread that got an overwhelming amount of responses. I read each and every single one of them. So, time for some more questions.

Make your dream over.gg team- Myself, Poi98, Darkcvc, Involv3r, Winter, Scrubasaurus, w/ KuroiRyuu as coach
If you want to answer, what's your first name?- Tristan

Scrubasaurus, what will he come up with next?

XQc on Shanghai would be an LUL

Love the name.

I gotta be honest pine is insanely overrated.

REMISKA calm down and stop arguing about Seagull again

Underrated team: Immortals (as of right now, they didn't used to be)
Overrated team: C9 Kongdoo (never found them to be absolutely incredible)

Underrated player: Architect (seriously, he's phenomenal)
Overrated player: Babybay (I like him, and happy he's on San Fran, but people hype him up too much)

Underrated over.gg member: Pixelfish
Overrated over.gg member: KuroiRyuu

Great to have a sense of the T2/T3 scene even if I don't watch it. Thanks poi!

Reverse sweep kings

Are Munchkin and Xepher confirmed? I expected them to get smother tank (a Reinhardt), like Kaiser. Or are the announcements not done yet?

Ayyy good job my dude

Plz give us replies on mobile

At least he'll cast the remaining events outside OWL. Unfortunate that Blizzard didn't contact him whatsoever, though. I imagine the casters for OWL will be: Monte/DoA, ZP/Bren, and Uber/MrX

He's most definitely a part of them. Seoul needs a talented projectile player like him.

I hate him and love him. Think he has the worst personality of any player, but also has some of the most incredible mechanical ability. I'm on the edge for him coming back. I'd like to see him in contenders, I guess?

I agree partially. Dreamkazper, Fischer, and Gamsu are all stellar pickups, but I think Kyb and Mistakes are both mistakes (no pun intended.) Yes, Mistakes is a great tracer, but I feel his lack of flexibility will only detriment the team. He could of course be just a bench warmer who would pop in for tracer based comps, but I think Boston would be more successful if they found a suitable hitscan DPS who could also play a strong tracer. Good tracers are key, but not every team needs a sinatraa or an Effect to win.
Meanwhile, Kyb's offtank play has never impressed. On a note of Snow and NotE (haHAa), they're both relatively unproven and largely inexperienced (at least in the tier 1 tournament scene) tournament players, and they're truly only on the rumored roster because of their relation with HuK.
If the team can find another strong DPS player, a couple reliable offtanks, and a stronger support core, forming a team around Dreamkazper and Gamsu specifically could be extremely viable.

I'd love to see Architect come in to be a straight projectile DPS player that not only can mesh with Dreamkazper's DPS flexibility, but also refuel the already existing chemistry between him and his old tank teammate. Even adding in Twilight and making a mini-conbox within Boston would be a smart move.

Potential is the key word. We've seen a lot of teams with potential that don't actually explore that potential, and end up falling under the disappointing category. Which, as of right now, will most likely add Boston to the list, unless the rumor roster undergoes some major shakeups (which it needs to if they want to have any chance of keeping at a high level of competition)

Oh wow

None of them will be in OWL. Hope they find a contenders team

Poi98 worlds greatest detective
