Make an OWL team

If you could make a team for OWL out of free agents, and minor teams, what team would you build? (No players from already created OWL teams) Here's mine:

FCTFCTN (Tank)
Knoxxx (Tank/Support)
Zappis (Flex)
Mangachu (Flex)
Gods (Flex)
Davin (DPS)
AKM (DPS)
Jaru (DPS)
Greyy (Flex Support)
Roolf (Flex Support)
Adam (Support)

FCTFCTN, one of the best main tank players in the world, he proformed insanely in the World Cup and kept up with Mano for a while.

Knoxxx, super flexible and can cover the main tank and Lucio role to a very high level.

Zappis, best off tank not in OWL imo, good on LAN.

Mangachu, in the world cup, team Canada showed just how good a team with Mangachu on his comfort heroes can be. On maps like Oasis, having the dps combo of Mangachu and Davin, with Mangachu on Pharah and Junkrat can be really strong, also on a map like Kings Row where both Hanzo and Zarya are really strong, Mangachu can shine.

Gods' hero pool works well with Mangachu's because he can play offtank and dps to a high level which allows Mangachu to reach his full potential.

Davin, great Tracer, he kept up with players like Logix and Snillo in Contenders Season 1

AKM, great hitscan and Pharah and is insane on LAN as seen in the World Cup.

Jaru, best genji not in OWL, (not counting underaged ones like Shadder2k, Haksal, and Whoru) i have him just in case Genji or Doomfist become meta again

Greyy, insane sombra, solid zen

Roolf, insane zen as seen for Canada in World cup, good Ana too

Adam, best Mercy NA, never dies. Good at micromanaging, ult tracking, and shot calling.

Over all, this team has a very solid back line and front line, the dps can compete with LA Valient imo, they're prepared for almost any meta, Pharah, Genji, 3 support, 3 Tank, 3 dps, etc. Combined these players can play almost any combination of DPS, Tanks and Supports, for example, Mccree Doomfist, Mccree Junkrat, Tracer Genji, Widow Hanzo even. Also flag meta is pretty strong. 4 Americans, 2 Canadians, 2 Finnish, 2 French, and even 1 from Portugal.

Davin
Mangachu
Zappis
FCTFCTN
Roolf
Adam
Greyy as sub

With how Roolf played Zen and Adam played Mercy at OWC they'd be an incredible support pairing, and already have synergy from C9 too

There's a very real lack of available top level Flex tanks in NA/EU right now but these would probably be my picks...I think...

i think after the triple tank meta the role of the offtank god ( with the first dive who featured 3 dps) die. Thinks about Kriw or Cooler. Zappis at the time was more a dps/flex supp and now he is a off tank. Also Toxiken Destro and Mafu dissapear cause they are not so good on DVA even if they are really good on a lot of heroes(escpeccialy offtank). With this new meta we will se a return to the original path (imho) we akready seen raise of new offtank god like Poko. Also North American players never ecceld on flex tank. You NA had Harbleu for some times, but no a lot of others great offtank( even if i am not one who define Harbleu great but this is the general opinion and i assume that as true): for examples Train for LGE was a good offtank but he reveal himself as a better tracer than offtank. Others offtank were Man of Snow, but after the drama he dissapered as eu offtanker. Right now who as compete recently on high levels i can thinks only (as FA) of Finnsi Zappis Hafficool Tseini( who is not really an offtanker).

well actually i have put them in this role but players like KnoxX Kruise Dante Tseini are really flexible...actually i dont think he is a top tier genji but his strenght come form being high tier as lucio/sombra and genji. In this ideal composition he is the only able to play a good sombra but i dont want to sacrifice a dps slot( in game) so his primaary role in this team would be flex but mainly main support. I think he as a sub is a great addition to any OWL teams...but i dont think he can be an holder right now with only his genji. If he brings others dps heroes at genji level i can change my mind but for now i think his strenght is on the triple heroes ability but 2/3 are support and i dont think i let him play genji with kyb and tseini or at least not as holder.

I actually think of him as being a top tier Genji...but that's pretty much it. His Soldier didn't impress me and I've never seen him on Lucio. I think he could be brought in as a Genji specialist and run in a variety of dive comps.

Otherwise I agree with you that his Genji alone may not be sufficient...I just think I might be able to make use of him for because of that one strength.

I think he could be usefull as genji one trick, but if i was a GM i will put more focus on flexibility than one tricks....but this is just my thoughts :)

One thing really impressed me with Kruise back when he was on Lucio and was streaming in Korea, his accuracy is IN-SANE.

Partly based on favourite players, not necessarily the best.
None are in OWL teams, but I am aware that not all are free agents.

Team captain - Reinforce (Main tank) - Sweden
Tonic (Main tank) - Russia
Bumper (Offtank/Main support) - S Korea
Gods (DPS/Offtank) - USA
Tseini (DPS/Offtank) - Finland
Davin (DPS) - Finland
Shadder2k (DPS) U18? - Romania
Stitch (DPS) - S Korea
KoX (Flex support/DPS) - S Korea
Greyy - (Flex support) - Portugal
Adam (Main support) - USA

Coach: Seita - Finland / Runner - S Korea
Analyst: Vonethil - Sweden

The versatility in this squad is in my opinion quite good, with a few specialists (Adam on Mercy for example).
Also have a few players there who have a history of playing together.

Also, Reinforce is a must, apart from that you are free to suggest other names.

STARTERS:

Stitch (dps) KOREA
Dafran (dps) DENMARK
FCTFCTN (main tank) USA
Lateyoung (off tank) CHINA
Roolf (flex support) CANADA
Adam (main support) USA

SUBS:

Mangachu (dps) CANADA
ArHaN (dps) KOREA
Zappis(off tank) FINLAND
Knoxxx (main tank/support) FRANCE
Greyy (flex support) PORTUGAL
Zhufanjun (main support) CHINA

DPS-
Hard leaving aKm off the roster but dafran can solider a touch better, can play tracer (if stitch was needed elsewhere) and although aKm can play pharah and I like his Mccree more than dafran, its not by much at all. Aetar or Jaru were interesting, Leave from MY was also worth considering being his deep hero pool. I’ve seen Fischer carry. Kruise, Zombs and Davin are all sick too. No one mentioned AKTM from Japan and I really haven’t seen much of him, he’s nasty. But the bench dps are a bit of specialist with the luxury of 12 men rosters (and no budget for my hypothetical team)

TANK-
Tempted to put reinforce on. tonic or mowzaza may both be better options off the bench at main tank but Knoxxx’s flex into support gets him on the roster . no one builds gravs like lateyoung. Finnsi is a great offtank. Harbleu, gods and tseini are better known for their dps but can offtank. but to me Zappis may be the most well rounded off tank lft In OWL.

SUPPORT-
One of the best mercy’s in the world, one of the best zenyattas, it seems to be a pretty common support duo on this thread and for good reason. Greyy gets on because his sombra play and his ability to zenyatta also. Lucid was an option or even winz for his Lúcio, Dante is an interesting support but zhufanjun gets the nod for his much needed Anna play.
