I'm predicting 4-0 sadly.

Holy.. I don't know how the rest of the series will go but that was an absolutely dominant performance on first stage map 1

I don't know if Canada can beat SK though tbh

lol Tviq on cleanup duty at the end. Wrapped that up.

I've always disliked Rogue for their out of game social media attitudes. BUT I really do hope that France wins because their lineup has been so solid for so long and all their players are great, and it would be a really awesome send off for them to go out on this win.

Agreed. I'm very surprised he's not in OWL. I would be willing to bet he ends up as a mid season pick up.

We might be watching a different match then, I saw a lot of great plays against the odds from both sides. It just seems like you are more willing to dismiss SK's good plays by calling them throws by France. We just have different viewpoints.

SK capitalizing on those mistakes is what made them win the maps. France capitalized on a lot of mistakes by SK as well. It happens. Just remember that France is not the only good team in this matchup.

The perspective from some of these comments...

Just because France didn't win doesn't necessarily mean that they "threw" or "choked", why couldn't it be that SK clutched?

I always thought AKM was a great Pharah but he is really showing up right now, dominating the air battle.

And it JUST started to snow here in Vancouver right as that match ended. Mother nature northern pride celebration? lol

Not feeling very impressed by Joemeisters mercy to be honest. Seems out of position way too often.

Roolfs opening on Hanamura 1st wtf.

Flower WTF

Watching Mykl just get swatted on that dragonblade was so satisfying lol

@QUOTE_ME_WHEN_MYKL_FEEDS

Anyone else getting severe audio delay? Looks like 2 seconds or so. Only on contenders stream, no other streams I follow. Is it just me?

Jeeeeeeez that Gibraltar offense.

PogChamp

None of you are going to convince the other one way or another. Stop arguing, go outside enjoy the day, play some Overwatch (the reason we're all here as fans), have a beer, whatever, just stop arguing because it's totally pointless.

You believe what you believe and that's all there is to it, and there's nothing wrong with having an opinion, just try not to be dicks about it.

LUL

Kungarnope

What a great game.

No VOD?

Just tuned in, what did I miss? :D some spicy shit talk?

WAT.

sadface

Honestly the map score does not show how great that series was, one of the best I've watched. GGs to Denmark :D

Holy shit that R66 Denmark offense was outrageous on last point.

What just happened with that "3rd" control round? Did Romania forfeit?

Really wanted IMT to take this one. It felt like they were outplaying Rogue the entire series but just lost to really unlucky moments. GGs :D

Great match :D

AFB 4-1 NV

Fanatic
NRG
Gale Force Esports

TFW no stream :/

Well if they don't watch it or find out the results before they cast it what difference does it make :D

I just want to see toxic mykl lose :/ y no stream?

Looks like it's up next

Hey that's kind of cool, I had no idea :D

What does Mendo have to do with anything? I don't follow :D

Agilities on Mercy / Ana / Zen
Roolf on Soldier / Tracer
Mangachu on Hanzo / Pharah

What the heck? :D

What the heck is this Canada attacking comp on Dorado?

Matches confirmed rigged? lol

edit - I'm only joking about the rigged part :D

How about that overlay blocking the timer? NA production.

inb4 cancelled or something ridiculous.

I am so dumb :D

Does anyone have any idea when this actually starts?

All these comments about the punishment being too harsh from Blizzard... according to their TOS they could just outright ban his account. I'd say he got off easy from Blizzard with just the temp ban after how many games he threw and how many other people he impacted with his negative behaviour.

As far as being removed from the Selfless roster, I'd be very surprised if there wasn't some kind of "public image" or "relations" clause of some type in their contracts. None of this seems unjustified to me.

I'm not going to lie, I've never been more hyped watching an OW game than I am right now watching Seagulls stream. The comms make it so much better. This is intense and it has been a great match so far. :D

No stream?

EDIT - Wasn't a link when I posted that
Thanks Guinea :D

Mendo posted on twitter he might be standing in for shadder since shadders internet was acting up. That could be fun to see :D

Edit - Game's live, looks like shadder is in, still going to be good to watch!

So they deleted all the source references from Numlocked stream in this thread? I posted a link with Numlocks quote in stream from twitch chat and now it's gone....

The latest interview with Seamoose, Harb and IDDQD one of the main topics of conversation was working on their communication.

"IDDQD sucks at widow"

Twitch chat is funny.
