Might be enough for me to want to play ranked again. Mercy is so frustrating.

I think you're underestimating clockwork's skill ceiling. He's gonna keep getting better. In the end though it's on him to prove it, so let's let the results speak for the both of us.

On his 3rd point about toxicity, i'd love to see a weekly summary that I could view anytime.

I'd like to see the results of reports i've placed on players, as well as the amount of times I was reported that week. No need to get specific on the times I've been reported, and tbh I don't think I do get reported. But i'd be nice to see when it was happening, it'd allow me the chance to be introspective about how i've acted recently.

As far as players i've reported, i'd like to see more details. BattleTag, date reported, result of report etc..

This does seem like a fairly generic response from Jeff, and all that probably means is that they haven't actively figured out everything that they want to do to fix the 3 things he mentioned (Mercy, Matchmaking, Toxicity). I have a positive outlook though, Blizzard can usually get to the right thing, and as they've shown with Warcraft 3, they will continue to support a game for a very long time.

Anyone else feel old as fuck looking at all of those birthdates in the spreadsheet..

It's due to me liking this really challenging osu! song... https://youtu.be/y8OMDEMB3f0?t=21

I've still never beaten it lol

All i know is it's significantly more fun to play with and against compared to old mercy, even if it might be stronger.

Corndog to slam

Can't wait to pair up with a zenyatta and chase people around while shooting.

Damn dude, sad to see liquid go.

I'm impressed that MESR was with them basically their whole time in OW. Thats some dedication to a team, and from liquid, to a player.

Hope their scrims against Korea haven't intimidated them too much!

LETS GO BOYS!

I'm a little slow on the draw for this answer but this keyboard is excellent. https://www.amazon.ca/MasterKeys-Mechanical-Keyboard-Intelligent-Switches/dp/B01ITE93OM/ref=sr_1_3?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1500515521&sr=1-3&keywords=brown

white LEDs look gr8 too.

hmm thanks for the ideas guys..

Maybe i'll see if i can find a scrim team or something to play with. Don't really have time to commit to a serious one unfortunately. It seems that there's not a whole lot blizzard can do to increase player quality and reduce negative attitudes either, at least not right now. The mental state of ranked is decaying at the higher level, I can't help but wonder how it is down in diamond and below.

Hey guys,

I was wondering if anyone else has lately lost their enjoyment from playing ranked.

I main support (mostly Lucio) and it seems these days in ranked it's a struggle to have a team that either wants to play together or a team that doesn't get super salty about everything and kill the mood of the match. I'm usually a pretty upbeat and positive person, but after a large enough amount of salt I just recluse and stop trying to contribute to comms in a positive way and just try and do my best mechanically.. I'm wondering if i'd just have more fun playing DPS at like mid masters as opposed to struggling to find a fun team as a support in GM.

I still really like overwatch as a game, but playing ranked just hurts my soul at this point. Are there any pug groups or something that a person could join, or any other suggestions for enjoying the game competitively without having to deal with salty players?

I can't understand a word their saying, but these casters are HYPE AS FUCK. I love it hahaha

Watched this live, it was probably one of the best series in contenders so far.

top 2 plays for me,
1) Muma runnin around slappin everyone off of Hanamura first point so Gingerpop could only get a 1 man res.
2) Buds dragonblade after reflecting the sleep dart at the very end. Sometimes BM in good fun is the best content.

See this image for a screenshot of the issue.

It also effects TFTV.

I know I could just use chrome and it'd be fine but I've been enjoying edge lately.

holy shit that reaper buff looks nutty on paper. can't wait to try it out.

I like watching rapha because he has good lucio pellet aim

looks like GFE's roster depended on this match (maybe not idk the inside deets) but they are all free agents now.

Yikes....

ESCA LUL everytime a tracer misses a pulsebomb
INCREDIBLE TRACKING PogChamp during every soldier aimbot (this ones still kinda fresh, but i like it)

Looking for someone to queue with tonight who's got their mind set on winning some games. i'm at 3850~ right now with a season high of 4100~.

I main Lucio but can also play ana/soldier/dva well.

Please save me from the end of season depressed people who've given up.

I'll be looking to play in about 4 hours from now.

2 -1 GFE, ez skins

Hopefully the extra work for sideshow will allow him to fund a nicer shed.

nice, good pairing, love these boys, keep it up, you got this, proud of you.

nice reading comprehension bro

Whichever team wins gets to keep their sponsorship.

Just looks like a combination of greedy and stupid at this point. I really wanna see OWL succeed as the games future as a high tier eSport basically demands it. However, without success I could see it falling into more a B tier esport for the rest of its lifespan.

In that case Chance would probably be better as he's got a bit of a better track record and has experience coaching (which could be quite useful in a Mix team like this.)

Although Train and Mangachu are 2 of my fav canucks so its hard for me to want them to go.

From those players i'd like to see something like, the below, I don't really know what roles to put them on though.

Train
Mangachu
Agilities
Verbo
Roolf
Surefour

Either way, I guess it doesn't who plays as long as they do a good job of representing Canada :)

Thanks again for the read.

I really enjoyed those Kn0xXx videos. There is some great insight there for players of any skill level. I likely never would have watched them if I didn't read your description of it. (I've always avoided alphacast stuff as I can't speak baguette)

HuK being involved with team canada again :puke:

At least he's not playing this time.

I agree, this can only be a healthy thing for the industry.

I wonder if game companies will try and compete with each other so they can advertise the "best rates" for legendaries or if they will collaborate with each other and fix the rates to their advantage.

Hoping someone makes a best of AWMM supercut of some kind. For the memories :)

Also, I hope this means blizz is about to drop something new on us, or kick it into high gear and give final details on OWL.

Thanks to a regulation by the Chinese Government, the probabilities of Loot Boxes are now known.

Kinda cool that we can see this information now, and I really hope this becomes the standard for all games with boxes/draw systems.

• Every Loot Box contains one item of Rare (blue) or higher quality 100% of the time.
• For every 5.5 boxes opened (18.2%), a Epic item (purple) will be inside.
• For every 13.5 boxes opened (7.4%), a Legendary (gold) item will be inside.

Honestly those odd's aren't too bad considering how easy it is to get loot boxes for free. Certainly feels better than hearthstone.

Still waiting for that patch to let me convert my tftv nerdstars into overgg ones.

I lost the will to shitpost to earn them a long time ago.

He'll for sure have no problem finding a team for OWL. He's like an IRL Krusher99. As long as something tragic doesn't happen to destroy the hype of his stream i'm sure he's golden.

Cracked up laughing scrolling through looking at all the professional looking pics of Korean teams from APEX and then there's Rogue. I think that picture solidifies them as an EU team.

That was a fun set to watch. Surprised by the 2:0 though; Didn't think EUNITED had it in them.

also, Sideshow, loved your analysis combined with your casting, but I think you need to work on your handoffs to your co-caster. It seemed you'd make a really good discussion point and then it would just kinda hang in the air and drop off. I don't know if that was you or your co-caster's fault or both though, but it was pretty noticeable.

Drawskya into drawnamura lmao

Good series though, really entertaining. I'm excited to see GFE play again.

Let's knock this one out.

Favorite Fruit?
Favorite Veg?

I'm keen on Grapes (good for snacking) & Potatoes (cheap, delicious, many ways to eat) as my favorites.

What up Over.GG

Whats everyone's favorite snack to have with them when they are grinding out SR? (or whats your pregame meal?).

I love having a bag of beef jerky and Iced Green tea (unsweetened) while i'm playing.

Chips would be really nice, but I can't stand having dirty fingers at my desk.

I can't imagine how stressful it is for some of these org's having very little idea as to what the final picture for OWL is.

OWL can make or break this game as an Esport in one swift launch.

F I N A L M O U S E

10 meter too small

pls blizzard make 15 or maybe 20.

god bless.

I'm glad they are holding off on the AMM when they aren't ready for it. Their first showing as a team needs to be top notch to keep the hype train rolling.

This is probably a decent chance to see where NRG lies, I don't expect the to pop-off too big though as most teams need time to mesh before they start winning games.
