Sideshow edition!! PogChamp

Ajax showing off and sharing thoughts on new lucio on stream: https://www.twitch.tv/ajax1tv

posted about 7 years ago

full patch notes: https://playoverwatch.com/en-us/blog/20635660

Key takeaways:

  • Eichenwalde has a new route to first point for attackers
  • Any "points" that need to be captured are tracked on a percentage basis - each extra second on point now matters. They will still decay to the existing 3 ticks
  • Lucio changes:
    • Sonic Amplifier
      • Projectile speed increased from 40 to 50
      • Alternate fire now considers vertical orientation when knocking targets back
    • Crossfade
      • Song's area-of-effect radius decreased from 30 meters to 10 meters
      • A temporary in-game visual has been added to illustrate this radius (it is only visible to Lúcio and his teammates)
    • Heal Song
      • Healing-per-second has been increased by 50% (also applies to Lúcio's Amp It Up ability)
    • Sound Barrier
      • Radius decreased from 30 meters to 20 meters
    • Wall Ride
      • Movement speed increased by 30% when wall riding
      • Lúcio now receives a burst of speed when leaping off a wall*

What even is a sideshow ?_0_/ Crazy talk...

I really like it, but few thoughts:
(A) I don’t know which edition/how updated the articles are atm - I know it’s latest but how recent/was it just updated. When articles are in the normal feed it’s bumped up to the top, while it will be in the main feed, could be cool to have a [new] banner?

(B) hard to know when something has new comments bc again it’s not bumped up in the news feed. We would have to remember how many comments something had when we last checked it in order to know which threads to view again

(C) Might just be me, but would love some diversity in the over.gg icons next to threads/discussions. Maybe Picked Over/WorldRankings/Announcments can have unique icons different from normal discussion?

Overall, I really like it- helps keep them accessible, especially Picked Over which I have reason to visit a few times as well as World Rankings which I like to reference when I see discussion on a team i'm not as familiar with.

Admirable made me do it FeelsBadMan

SOS

In all seriousness, Admirable is underselling it. If you enjoy competitive overwatch and want to get involved in the scene, this is a great way to do it. Not only will you be an integral part of the over.gg experience but additionally, you will join a team of some of the best and brightest minds in the overwatch community and have the opportunity to engage in many enlightening discussions with them. So if you're passionate about the scene/want to see it grow, i'd definitely recommend signing up!

Thats bc NRG Harbleu kappa

Really enjoyed this! I'm looking forward to seeing where you take the series in the future :) How frequently/when do you publish new editions? I think it would def add value if you could include some sort of overview/agenda at the start of the video just to help viewers know what they will be looking at/skip to specific sections of interest if they want.

You can find their battle tags and look up their SR from the Tespa website: https://compete.tespa.org/tournament/27/registrants

Couple I quickly checked are 4000+ SR.

Excited to see what NRG will bring out later this month - hopefully the downtime will show results in bringing them back to dominance. Additionally should be interesting to see if they sign anyone else before the monthly melee or decide to compete with trials.

Curious about this as well- did something happen? As far as i'm aware harb has never had issues regarding personality/in game comms in tf2 as well.

posted about 7 years ago

It really feels like when harbleu plays exceptionally, CoL does well otherwise they just fall flat. Hopefully either the team as a whole improves soon or harbleu finds a new home bc it's a shame to see him struggle like this.

Love these!

Love the format and really insightful questions @Sideshow. Hope to see more of these! Really well deserved win by Misfits, glad to see their emphasis on self improvement and recognizing where to grow.

posted about 7 years ago

Misfits reaching the finals and actually winning made this entire tournament so much more hype than it would've been otherwise- glad we had a great conclusion! Now looking forward to seeing what tournaments are next!

Seems like the "additional production value" for the TBS airing is mostly focused on general audiences rather than actual match production. Hopefully i'll be proven wrong but I was looking for a higher caliber of production from this event.

No its using the timebank concept from Season 2. Tiebreaker is bo3 CP.

Misfits off to an incredible start!!! Hoping this will shape up to be a close series. Insane to think misfits is playing this well despite having 2 new members on the team.

posted about 7 years ago

Insane last point hold by FaZe! Looking forward to the rest of the series.

A+ article but even better title :')

Irregardless - it was great to see you all competing at the tournament! Hope it's good news and we'll see more from the team :)

Incredible - great to see the growth in the esports scene!

posted about 7 years ago

Strong start by NRG - lets see if they can maintain it!

posted about 7 years ago

I think it speaks to the size of Competitive Overwatch where 5k tournaments are no longer entirely enticing enough for top teams to take time out to play. Lets see if iBuyPower takes this with stride and raises the scope of their tournaments - really enjoyed the production of the first one!

posted about 7 years ago

Neat to get some insight into what a coaches role is in OW at the moment. I think the last few questions really highlighted the next big step needed for overwatch - how do coaches fit into large tournaments? It'll be interesting to see Blizzard's take on this following Blizzcon.

Hope UGC will be able to help grow the competitive scene of the Overwatch community! Despite what some might say, I had a blast playing TF2 HL with UGC - great low risk environment to enjoy competitive.

I got tickets- most likely will.

Lol thanks - I found the link right after posting :') Hopefully i'll be free then!

They didn't qualify from their group stage unfortunately. Really excited to see what production will look like at this event - it'll definitely set a benchmark for the next few major tournaments! Anyone know if Eleague is releasing audience tickets? Would love to watch some of these games live!

posted about 7 years ago

Glad to see some additional tournaments announced past Blizzcon - event schedule was looking barren past Eleague and I guess the world cup. Hopefully the delay will be worth the wait at Blizzcon!

posted about 7 years ago

Match will be played with the new balance changes- should be interesting to see the start of the new meta!

posted about 7 years ago

I just double checked- as of now that is correct (i'd imagine both teams had to shuffle around their scrim schedules). We will keep monitoring it to keep this up to date!

FYI: Faze gets 1 point by default as an advantage for coming through the winners bracket.
