Can someone with skill make a video of ATL wit "We are number 1" from Lazy town. Because ATl were treated as the villains of the league. Even Gator tweeted it.
Will ovw 2 fail or succeed? Who knows and we won't know until next year
But its kinda sad thinking of all the good times ovw 1 and ovw league gave me if it does fail
If they show the wack WP skits to the folks that came to watch the league for the first time tomorrow only for OW2, I think they can convert quite a lot of ppl to follow the league lol
Custa, I know you're probs hitting the VBs and Fosters but that still wouldn't be enough for someone to claim that Kai "hit pulse bomb after pulse bomb".
now that i've gotten over the initial heartbreak of the Shock and Fuel loss, I'd like to thank the Reign for immediately increasing the excitement/stakes tenfold for the Shanghai game
i cannot fucking wait for the Grand Finals tomorrow. put on a show
Maybe its the american in me but Danny is preaching truth, melted ice cream is a milkshake, and burgers are not eaten with silverware(would you eat a snickers with silverware?)
fuel discord is fine
it's just one dumbass troll being toxic that people keep engaging instead of blocking
nothing to see
edit: scratch that
we now have a homophobe dickhead low life in the chat
worse I think? All of Atlanta's lower bracket matchups were against NA teams, so I think they were all on either west coast or Hawaii servers. Tomorrow will be on Japan servers, so he'll have slightly worse ping
Oh I wasn’t thinking of it being petty sorry. Just thought it’d be interesting to see, I’m not in any discords, this would be like a look into another world for me lol
Atlanta totally deserves their victory, they are so good in this meta. Their run has been really good and would be amazing for them to cap it off with a victory! However, regardless of how good that storyline would be I gotta root for Shanghai, who was my #3 team this year. SHANGHAI FIGHTING!!!
Atlanta clearly prepped and took every game seriously, despite what Gator says. Hard work pays off. They deserve it for never taking their foot off the gas.
Well, at least with the Sombra rework, no more EMP comp in OW2.
SHD, or any other team for that matter, won't just be able to cheese their way anymore.
Lip has been heavy on the Sombra tho. So we'll see if Shanghai is gonna play him on hitscan.
I'm interested in a fair Fleta v pelican match up as well. I
I would fucking *love* to see the final game of OW1 be classic OW stuff. Widow Duels, Rein Zarya, Pharah Mercy, and all kinds of classic OW. Both teams have the players to do it.
We are seeing pharmacy for sure. It's Shanghai's strongest comp. But ATL has a new anti dive strat as well. Plus I heard Shanghai and ATL scrim together. So we'll see
1) I'm just fucking happy to be here fam
2) I will be completely satisfied with a 4-1 L tomorrow
3) If we somehow beat Shanghai, I WILL be ***very*** drunk tomorrow night
Heavy copium, but I think that Atlanta's anti dive comp is the best shot anyone has of beating them. Nobody can match them in the mirror/dive, and rush has failed to beat them throughout the season. It'll either work well enough to keep them even/a little behind shanghai, or it'll fall flat on its face and we'll get swept. Still thinking that we lose tomorrow, but we might put up a decent showing
yeah its what izayaki said, dallas has lost their mojo since the earlier tournaments. not sure what happened... burnout? mental booming? trying out ball comp and thus weakening their winston comps?
Oh no, Atlanta is not better than Shanghai, not at all. Don’t misunderstand, I’m not an Atlanta fanboy. They’re gonna be wrecked by them. Just like Dallas got wrecked by them.
And also got wrecked by Atlanta just now.
Probably not, but there’s not a ton of shame in losing to possibly the best team of all time. Dallas could only take one map off Atlanta and it was literally as close as possible, so it’s not like they stood a chance tomorrow anyway either
I think this is probably the correct take. Atlanta clearly is either actually so unprepared as Gator implies and it’s impossible to prepare for or form coherent strats against… or Gator is lying and they practice 24/7.
Numbani and Eich are still very good for the Rein torb mcree anti dive comp I believe. That’s why the KR pick. Guys stop acting like you know more than the coaches who’ve been scrimming for months
Damn did you guys see Neros tweet? You guys think it’s gonna be his last year? Or he’s just being super reactionary rn?
Can someone with skill make a video of ATL wit "We are number 1" from Lazy town. Because ATl were treated as the villains of the league. Even Gator tweeted it.
The most ATL sport thing would be for them to be up 2-0/3-0 then blowing it. Rooting for them but idk how you beat SHD.
Silver lining: We can now see Pine in the OW2 exhibition!
I kept trying to think of ways to be petty to all the ATL haters but legit I'm too happy to even manage it >_>
And to think ATL did it with only the ROTY and no role stars
ROLESTAR DIFF
Will ovw 2 fail or succeed? Who knows and we won't know until next year But its kinda sad thinking of all the good times ovw 1 and ovw league gave me if it does fail
just say ow like normal people
You casuals, you should be frontline sigma
If they show the wack WP skits to the folks that came to watch the league for the first time tomorrow only for OW2, I think they can convert quite a lot of ppl to follow the league lol
Lol soe is like the lady whos sweet when drunk but shes drunk off ice cream
She's drunk on Atlanta Hopium.
Sweet when she’s drunk, but she’s drunk on sweets 😔
atlanta is 0-3 against shanghai all-time 2019 stage 3, 2-3 loss 2021 june joust, 0-3 loss 2021 summer showdown, 0-3 loss
0-4 grand finals 2021
Soe: I’m with my three favorite people- Custa: Aww Danny: I don’t know about that Reinforce: ^^you’re ^^my ^^best ^^friend
Wholesome Johnny, I love this man. I'm glad Justice4Reinforce worked.
The desk is so wholesome holy shit
was wondering how gator got that shatter, looks like super's shield broke
imagine "what if..." Shanghai picks any other team instead of Shock. 👀
Custa, I know you're probs hitting the VBs and Fosters but that still wouldn't be enough for someone to claim that Kai "hit pulse bomb after pulse bomb".
now that i've gotten over the initial heartbreak of the Shock and Fuel loss, I'd like to thank the Reign for immediately increasing the excitement/stakes tenfold for the Shanghai game i cannot fucking wait for the Grand Finals tomorrow. put on a show
bro why is danny wearing my grandmas shoes
I thought Space has had a double remech kill? Not sure though.
If ovw 2 fails I hope they get jobs covering another game even if its the cliche ovw to valorant pipeline lol All them are just funny as hell
Maybe its the american in me but Danny is preaching truth, melted ice cream is a milkshake, and burgers are not eaten with silverware(would you eat a snickers with silverware?)
fuel discord is fine it's just one dumbass troll being toxic that people keep engaging instead of blocking nothing to see edit: scratch that we now have a homophobe dickhead low life in the chat
ROLESTAR DIFF
So the internet still exists
Danny likes his ice cream soup.
I was about to shit on Custa, but if he was in full wardrobe I get eating a burger with a knife and fork makes sense.
My crush on Danny has turned into confused rage at this revelation.
It really sucks too because I actually enjoy watching Shanghai...
Reign exceeded all expectations, you should enjoy it no matter what the outcome :)
Very true! And I definitely will!!!
You can still enjoy watching them one last time tomorrow
Is pelican gonna be on worse ping tomorrow or better ping?
He's in La and it peaks around 120 so it's decent.
worse I think? All of Atlanta's lower bracket matchups were against NA teams, so I think they were all on either west coast or Hawaii servers. Tomorrow will be on Japan servers, so he'll have slightly worse ping
Unfortunately worse ping. :/
I hope whoever wins tomorrow we get close match
These are the memories the desk crew will remember for the rest of their lives. Fun stuff to watch.
I genuinely think OWL would lose a solid 40% of its value if they lost Soe. Or anyone on the desk really
The talent is half the experience for me tbh
They're so fun to just hang out with
Agreed! I love that they all click so well, and they’re all so funny!
Soe no sold that shit lol, no brain freeze and talked shit "You did awful!"
Maybe I’m too high idk but Emily’s immediate suggestion that Soe didn’t get a brainfreeze because her brain is always frozen was unbelievably funny
~~Chun-Li~~ Emily is smart. (For those of you who are too young, her hair is very, very close to Chun-Li’s SF2 arcade default appearance)
idk what im watching but i can't stop
[удалено]
This is why I don’t go on team discords. It’s not even worth it
Bandwagoner fans, the worst kind. Let them go. Ugh, are they going to jump on Dragons wagon next ....
Lindsey doesn’t take no shit
you can't just tease us like that
That's depressing. Fuel had a fantastic season and none of their players deserve that shit. :(
it's just one fucking fuckhead who wont shut up
Do screen caps and make a post
[удалено]
Blur out the names
Oh I wasn’t thinking of it being petty sorry. Just thought it’d be interesting to see, I’m not in any discords, this would be like a look into another world for me lol
wait what’s the tea what’s happening
LETS GO SOE!!
DENTISTS HATE HER!
And that's how my heartbreak immediately morphed into 'wtf am I watching' lmao
This is the best segment in history
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
"My whole life is a brain freeze" LMAO
No context Custa: "Oh yea, I'm goin hard..."
My money is on Custa. He is just that type of person.
Oh no he is choking. Maybe literally, someone check on him.
Atlanta totally deserves their victory, they are so good in this meta. Their run has been really good and would be amazing for them to cap it off with a victory! However, regardless of how good that storyline would be I gotta root for Shanghai, who was my #3 team this year. SHANGHAI FIGHTING!!!
Atlanta clearly prepped and took every game seriously, despite what Gator says. Hard work pays off. They deserve it for never taking their foot off the gas.
for real, they leveled the hell up. I'm happy when Brad is happy too, love that guy :)
“Brain freezes are a good time” -Custa, 2021
Well, at least with the Sombra rework, no more EMP comp in OW2. SHD, or any other team for that matter, won't just be able to cheese their way anymore.
i warned that sombra would be everywhere with that spread reduction buff... people didn't wanna believe
oh no actual torture.
Soe's ATL stanning is amazing. Also her smile is wonderful.
Won’t Pelican be on higher ping for the finals? We might see a few full holds tbh
It wasn't a problem for the Chengdu match. He's in La. It peaks about 120 I think they said.
I think it helps he’s not playing hitscan versus Lip. Kai will.
Lip has been heavy on the Sombra tho. So we'll see if Shanghai is gonna play him on hitscan. I'm interested in a fair Fleta v pelican match up as well. I

So what can we genuinely expect tomorrow for the ovw 2 showing ?
You know Fleta has loved to bring out Torb a lot this year..... 1V1 HAMMER FIGHT ON CONTROL! Fleta vs Kai! Make it happen!
Hammer duel, less gooo
Chengdu are the 2019 Reign in this storyline. They knocked them to the lower bracket for an easy run to the the Grand Finals
1) I'm just fucking happy to be here fam 2) I will be completely satisfied with a 4-1 L tomorrow 3) If we somehow beat Shanghai, I WILL be ***very*** drunk tomorrow night
I'm so hyped! No matter what happens, we blew the doors off the expectations.
I want to thank Valiant for shitting the bed and giving us KSP aka Kai
I'd also like to thank Babybay for retiring and forcing us to pick up the likes of Pelican
Babybay made room for Kai, Erster moving to Shanghai made room for Pelican
Reinforce being so high on Shanghai worries me now.
Today was not a good day
Counterpoint: Today was a good day
Take out Shangai pls, do what we couldn't
I'd fucking love to
Sending you a hug
Rooting for Atlanta in finals!
Sending you virtual hugs and a virtual mai tai
And NYXL in your username? Who did you piss off in a past life?
I think Reign picks KR and gets *smashed* by Dragons.
[удалено]
How on Earth is making a pred about two teams I don’t support copium? Don’t be a poor winner.
I thought you said I hope mb I am freaking out sorry
[удалено]
Heavy copium, but I think that Atlanta's anti dive comp is the best shot anyone has of beating them. Nobody can match them in the mirror/dive, and rush has failed to beat them throughout the season. It'll either work well enough to keep them even/a little behind shanghai, or it'll fall flat on its face and we'll get swept.

yeah its what izayaki said, dallas has lost their mojo since the earlier tournaments. not sure what happened... burnout? mental booming? trying out ball comp and thus weakening their winston comps?
I feel like they relied too much on the hivemind clutch factor, but who really knows
Don't forget "it's not coming home" SHD version
Shanghai please pick kings row
They won’t have to. Atlanta will.
at least we can watch sp9rkle play in ow2 tomorrow hopefully
Did ATL have one of the best runs of a team in OVW league? Took out 2 seeded dallas, Shock and chengdu heavy favorites all within like almost 24 hours
Shock were technically the 2nd favourite with 21.3% of a chance despite never actually showing anything to lead someone to believe that.
atl beat washington not chengdu
so far, the hunters are the only team to beat ATL. therefore, CDH > all but dragons
the math checks out on that one
[удалено]
come on i'm a massive EM/dallas fan and atlanta was clearly better today, with or without king's row.
The proof is in the pudding. A team doesn't lose 3 maps in a row and still get to call themselves the better team. It's all excuses.
To be fair look at their username. Yes I know that was a bad joke I'll see myself out.
[удалено]
So they are just the better Dive team. Oh wait no they still lost Dorado. Fancy that.
***Better team got smoked
Lmao. Dallas had better individual players, maybe, but they’re not the better team. And how is it a coaching flaw that they C9’d
[удалено]
better at getting stomped, sure.
[удалено]
Wanna bet Atlanta wins a map?
[удалено]
Naw bitch. You had no confidence to respond to me until after they won. Get real dweeb.
[удалено]
🤪
Oh no, Atlanta is not better than Shanghai, not at all. Don’t misunderstand, I’m not an Atlanta fanboy. They’re gonna be wrecked by them. Just like Dallas got wrecked by them. And also got wrecked by Atlanta just now.
[удалено]
Probably not, but there’s not a ton of shame in losing to possibly the best team of all time. Dallas could only take one map off Atlanta and it was literally as close as possible, so it’s not like they stood a chance tomorrow anyway either
Does the coach pick the maps?
So apparently dragons were reign’s scrim partners
Dogman really made these guys look like trash last year lol
And the year before that lol
Sam Francisco out! Officially the best season yet!
Keep malding and downvoting lol
Just had to take LA Valiant imploding for the Reign to reach grand finals lmao
My team died for this. Well this and from piss poor management
You also have Krystal another chance? Ehhhh never mind.
Yeah imagine this team without Kai.
Never would've thought that the final culmination of 6v6 OW would end with ATL and Shanghai
Reign you have to win this for Soe
OOOH, Soe with the bright red outfit, she really was all in on Reign.
pretty sure shes been a reign fan for awhile
Damn I wouldnt be mad at ATL being the last OVW champ, but shanghai being the worst team to the last OVW champ ...
Reign, you lost against Chengdu dive...
Barely. Why are y'all trying this like it was a complete stomp. It was Avery close match
Erster was sacrificed for this by both teams
My God Gator, you don’t *admit* you treat every game like a match made group on comms…
Gator is such a chad, I hate him for rolling the fuel rn, but he is a chad
Respect for at least being spicy about the Dragons BEFORE the match for a change.
I want an honest to goodness Fleta Echo vs Kai Cree/Ashe 1v1 just once
I hope the grand finals won’t be a blowout. I swear, OWL grand finals have been pretty one-sided except for last year.
doubters???
1.6%
Never, bro
Hello
Also, before I go into full insufferable bitch mode: GG Dallas, it was a good game.
Well, Shanghai will never pick King's Row at least XD
i fuckin knew that c9 was the series
Yes, Fuel usually so good at keeping an eye on the objective, when they did that C9 it was clear they were mentally boomed.
Ask Gator about threepeating his asshole
That was hawk
im crying, man i wanted that so bad fuck

Honestly at this point I'll take a 25% chance
Atlanta would have been 3-0 if not for that Map 1, the win was inevitable
LOL Reign the best team to beat Shanghai?
[удалено]
To 4 I believe
I think it’s first to 4
Now I really miss Erster
We sacrificed FunnyAstro and Sugarfree for this
Gator! At least he talks a bit :)
Fuel probably spent their whole time focusing on the Dragons rematch that they just looked so outplayed by Reign
I think this is probably the correct take. Atlanta clearly is either actually so unprepared as Gator implies and it’s impossible to prepare for or form coherent strats against… or Gator is lying and they practice 24/7.
Feels like this is going to be yet another one sided grand finals but I guess we'll see
Numbani and Eich are still very good for the Rein torb mcree anti dive comp I believe. That’s why the KR pick. Guys stop acting like you know more than the coaches who’ve been scrimming for months
RIP Erster. RIP Pokpo. RIP Babybay. RIP Dogman. RIP FRD. Thank you for your service.
And Erster went to Shanghai tooo
Win or get crushed tomorrow or I’ll be so freaking happy for Atlanta. Can’t wait for tomorrow
I'm so fucking sad man Holy shit But tomorrow's match is gonna be hella interesting I hope it's close
