I think would be a fun thing to rewiew the offseason signing for the OWL teams (both new and old) since some are confirming they will not sign other players. The rules for this are: give the team of the thread( Hangzhou in this case) a vote from 0 to 10 in the "offseason exam"( where 6 is the minum to pass). And you also have to say why, in your opinion, the team deserve that vote. Remember you have to rate the players market not the strenght of the team: so for the expansion team if they choose the best player for their team considering their strategy for the picks. While for the Old team the parameter will be more if they were able to improve the things they lacked last year and/or improved things overall.

My vote for Hangzhou Spark market:9

Dps: I am not really an expert about Korean and Chinese T2 scene but Krystal is one of the most impressive dps i have seen in the eastern scene. I am pretty sure he will rock in OWL ( also point up cause they won bidding war with Hunters). I dont think they have alredy choose his partener in crime but for me will be Bazzi. I dont really think the other 3 are on Krystal level but they are really good ( especially GodsB as flex dps).

Tank: Guxue is AWESOME and NoSmite is a great sub main tank will be their peak position. Ria is a good offtank, i think they could have take better as individual skill but is the best choice in the team enviroment for the previous sinergy with other X6 members

Support: IDK could probably become Top 3/5 Main Supports in all the league. Revenge and Bebe are two good flex-supp but imho will be the the bottom one regarding skill

Coaches: i think they have the best coaching staff around all expansion teams ( along with Paris). 3 HC could be seen as a problem by some but i think they will works perfectly: Team Seven always seemed like they had a big potential but actually never achieve something concrete, their former coach will be a great AC and will probably do the final step he is missing under former X-6 HC. The former LGD gaming will bring players prospective ( since he is a former player) into coaching staff.
Final thoughts and other considerations: the core of X-6 and Team Seven will pay off in the early season. They also were able to take the two best chinese players avaible on the market. Great offseason for them.

I wanna see your votes for their offseason so post votes!

Kyb yay

One PoinT looked really strong. Cant wait to see them against BH or AT and see the level they can reach.

Match of the day! Two great teams. For the swedish players meta AT should won ( 4 vs 3) but if we counts sub too O&H reach 5 against 4 from AT. Wich one should we consider? Guess we will discover it on the play-ground.

Amen brother. I had the same problem on a couple of season...but in the end going offtank( best carry on bronze imho) i magaged to reach plat :D. The most important thing is to
dont get too frustated even if connection goes away. PMA is the key.

This game is super good

Have to disagree. Since you are still here to flame we can easily say this game is not dead.

SharP :eyesheart:

Lets go!

Love you guys, appreciate your support！

BIG

Stay angry :angry:

UK Killing it!

Cant wait for it :love:

Manneten deserves to be in OWL imho

Cant wait to see SMS new roster in action!

Lul i know where is it but i dont have time to listen it all....(and yese you were clear XD)

Nice so means we will not have 3rd party except from Pit and Beat! Good job Blizzard! If at least they improved the rules for 3rd party tournaments i can even understand the thing they are doing, but if they dont change ANYTHING T2 in EU SA AUS and maybe PAC will die, and if T2 die dont expect T1 to live much longer.....

Seita=playoffs

Super happy for Masaa Kodak and Nlaeer! Super deserved!

Cant be more happy about the players! Lets go Morning Stars!

Barroi is the real pogchamp here

Huge

Lets go Paris! My boy LhCloudy will stomp in OWL

Get this man an OWL team.

Great article! I cant wait to see this team in action!

Nice write up!! I am not really sure about who will pass cause the skill difference is really close( maybe only Hurricane are above the others but i can see them lose more than a game). Bp and HSL team intrigue me so much! Should be a fun Trials!

Super nice place to discuss and make friends! Would recomend 10/10

my bet is that Caspere and Leaf are on it along with Nisa DragonEddy and Mowzassa. And some speculation around Exorath are going around, but i am not sure how him and Nisa will share time in case ( maybe Nisa out? i dont know but i would like to see both in dream flex supp lineup )

Also Milkyman and Zaprey lets go!

GizmomcS pogchamp

I think both him and ColourHex are signed to the academy so Boston can defeat expansion team signing while waiting for the 8th october. I think both will end in Boston Uprising.

He is playing with HSL in Europe Trials

Asking is more of an hitscan player. But Leaf would be an amazing backup since he can also offtank :D

Nico is really good. Problem is a backup projectile :|

Not sure how many players from old Rogue will be picked. From some rumors only LAV player untouchable is Space so there is a possibility to take SoOn. I think also AKM and Poko are double. Then i think they will pick a good amount of players from Eagle ( Nico, SuperPlouk, Leaf, Lilbow, maybe KnoXX as main supp/coahing role/tank etc..). I can see also players like BenBest,Hidan. For sure they have a good amount of main tank besides SP and BenBest ( not sure about KnoXX since he did not play that much in the last months) also Chubz is a good Main Tank. They have the possibility to build a great Full French Roster. But imho they will not buy all the 3 players i said before. I think SoOn and Poko will be really expensive to buy. I still hope in a Mixed European roster ( i can see a strong french core). But i guess we will see SoOn( :eyes: ).

Great defense on Anubis Point A. France is too strong but proud of the boys!

We Believe!

Poko BenBest the return

This match has been awesome so far!

KKodak

NL is the clearly favourite, but we believe! Lets go Italy!

Good decision for him and his career

:(

STAY ANGRY

Map 5 Lets go!

That Kings Row second attack was pretty awesome :D

#StayAngry Lets go Titans!
