MA vs RunAway PogChamp

CommanderX on fire with the memes today Poggers

I've never seen them play live, so I'm excited. And I'll admit, I'm definitely intimidated.

Those mercy stats are so high because EeveeA actually has 26 accounts for every letter of the alphabet.

I wouldn't call beating RunAway an "upset" during that MM. RunAway wasn't taking it seriously and the ping differences were atrocious. I think BGH could put on a decent show during the World Cup, but I find it unlikely that they make it out of groups when they're up against 2 extremely-strong looking teams.

Yeah, I guess that makes sense. I still stand by my statement though that it's dumb for him to complain. As Alicus also just said on twitter, the simple fact is that Fnatic didn't do everything they needed to in order to get the spot, but Jack obviously did. Making sarcastic comments towards Jack on twitter is also uncalled for. https://mobile.twitter.com/sammathews/status/895606068000079876

Also, congrats on two stars dude :)

That's a different situation because the other investors are first-time investors in the OWL who have never fielded a team. Fnatic falls under the category of an endemic org, so if it's between C9 and Fnatic (they both have the money) they're going to choose C9. Fnatic dropped out a while ago saying that they're unsure of their future in overwatch and that they may return. Fnatic already also applied for an NA LCS spot so it's pretty dumb for Matthews to be complaining when he clearly should've known that Blizzard would've put priority onto an endemic org that has the money AND a roster that is committed to Overwatch.

It's dumb that Matthews is complaining. What did he expect after he dropped the roster? Blizzard is going to give more attention to an org that actually has a roster first rather than an org that dropped their roster months ago because they were "unsure" about the OWL.

just stay on the objective that's all I'm saying

But why London? You would think eUnited would be there instead. I could see C9 maybe making some roster changes in order to feel a little more European? But doesn't matter as much for the first season.
Happy that C9 is still alive!

Selfless_Brad transforms into NRG_Brad, and I think he'll bring some great new energy cough to the team

Pixelfish doesn't get triggered Kappa

Eqo was just in XQC's game and it seems as though he gets triggered easily. Wonder if that'll happen at LAN :thinking:

I find it more likely to see Dhak on the team because of this. But most of all, is NRG finally on the right track? 4th time is the charm! PogChamp

Took me 2 minutes to figure out the pun FeelsBadMan

You got this runaway. Let's see that old form again.

Excited to see the return of these guys. I remember the old days when I used to see the name NiP in a tournament and I'd be scared for all the other teams. Hope we get to some variation of those times again.

Now my earlier dream roster for NRG has changed. Hidan above all.

Seagull, Iddqd, MESR, Harbleu, Dhak, Hidan

The 3 American 3 European meta

Remiska, Taimou made them work simply because he's a good player overall. But TviQ could take those heroes and shine on them, simply because he's a god on a good portion of heroes in the game. If a team had to choose between taking Taimou or TviQ for their DPS spot based on mechanical and flexibility skill, it'd be dumb to not take TviQ. .

Be honest with yourself! We all know Buds is a very talented player, but his genji doesn't even touch Seagulls. Yes, Seagull hasn't been in pro play for a long time, but his skill has barely diminished, he's still a monster on genji. Buds was just good enough to keep FNRGFE's dive comp going.

I think Agilities is a top 5 genji world. Call me delusional, but I think it's true. And if I'm wrong right now, he'll definitely become one.

And Remiska, we are referring to nationality right now, not what team he played on. Shadder is Romanian, and due to Liquid being goners, its best to categorize Shadder as an EU genji unless he gets picked up by a North American team in the future.

Oh I agree that TviQ is an absolute monster, and I've seen most of his games. I'm just also saying if I could find the " TviQ of NA", it would unquestionably be Surefour.

A lot of people underestimate Seagull- several pro players (from the west and Korea) have praised Seagull for his mechanical and game-sense talent. He unquestionably understands the game bettter than most players. His genji and pharah are still top 5 NA in my opinion, and his soldier and Zarya are standout as well.

Winter, the only other DPS player I can think of is Surefour. He's incredibly flexible and talented on multiple heroes.

I believe skipjack may be contracted to LK, but he's not on the starting roster and Alicus is letting him look for a new team.

Don't worry dude I'm just memeing around

But KuroiRyuu I'm still in elementary school BabyRage

Remiskaaaa ur getting toxic again

With a lot of free agents on the market, the San Francisco NRG team has plenty of talent to choose from to (hopefully) craft the top team that they've taken so long to. They already have the core of Iddqd and Harbleu (and maybe Seagull if he decides to stay, I will touch on that later.)

Main tanks: Choices could include MESR, skipjack, kolsti, Gamsu, xQc, Beasthalo, etc.
Support/Shotcallers: Dhak, Neptuno, Grego, Jkw, Kynnel, Zave, etc.
Support/Flex: Twilight, Dante, Grego, Michael3D, Cosi, etc.
Projectile/Flex DPS (if Seagull doesn't come back): Shadder2k, Sinatraa, Carpe, etc.

Don't forget also if LGE and CLG ends up being dropped, that adds some huge players to the market such as JAKE, Avast, Hydration, and Shake.

I'm not sure about Seagull coming back. Blizzard unquestionably need him in the league, but the question is to figure out where he goes. Does he become the figurehead of a big city team, like New York? Or do they rebuild the core of NRG with him finally?

My final dream roster for NRG is as follows: Seagull, Iddqd, MESR, Harbleu, Dhak, and Twilight. I'd maybe substitute Gamsu for MESR, Neptuno for Dhak, and Dante for Twilight.

or just drop the current roster and pick up the chipmunks PogChamp

I wouldn't ^

420 blaze it smoke spree everyday

I actually think this has the potential to be a 2-2, but maybe with Taiwan edging out USA in the tiebreaker (which works better for USA in terms if bracket)

Remiska multi-lingual Kreygasm

Plz be over.gg article title ^

Opening with USA. I like it.

Excited to see more of Blankstralia and the new MEGA with Graceful and Moffitt!

I need the Kreygasm emote so I can have it at the ready whenever Scrubasaurus has a meme title

DAMN IT ADMIRABLE I WANTED TO THINK OF A MEME BUT I COULDNT AND YOU JUST WROTE AN AMAZING ONE AND NOW I AM JEALOUS BabyRage

Envyus to become the cowboys of OW? Don't know if they'll end up being the best team- whatever the Korean team ends up being, Immortals, or whatever Boston or NY concocts could end up being worthy matches for envyus.

YEAAAAAHHHHH CANADA!!!

Surefour, XQc, Mangachu, Agilities all payed out of their minds. I personally think Agilities outshines SDB on genji as well.

Hmm didn't expect this, but nice!
