Yes the OWL league has kept me more engaged than I thought it would. Production is smooth and the high viewership definitely caught many people by surprise.

The only area I wish to see improvement is the observers!!! It is so frustrating to watch OWL's observing having started watching competitive overwatch from APEX Korea. It's amazing how they manage to catch all the fail moments though. The observing has definitely improved leaps and bounds since pre-season but I just wish they could get the old apex observers back on board.

Also I feel that I'm turning to the Korean casters more because their comments are on point and I feel like I am engaged more in the matches as compared to the English casting. Despite Korean being my 3rd language and I'm not as fluent in it as compared to my English.

Agree that all the ban/suspending drama has sort of overshadowed the actual game hype. And seeing players like Rascal getting thrown back and forth and Envy being dropped back to Contenders in only a few months is so hard to watch. Allowing OWL to pick players from Contenders now and then may also affect the quality of Contenders in the long run. Like you train a team only for a player or two to leave for OWL and have to restart the process again.

Looking forward to more balance between the top and bottom tier teams!! Not fun when results are predictable right?

Wait don't they already have a full roster with Gambler's addition?

Great write up! Makes me wonder what are the criteria to become an observer for OWL. As far as I know APEX Korea's observers were a team of grand masters and apex definitely had one of the best observing so far.

Glad that Void is able to join the OWL ranks, but worried for contenders cause if players are just gonna transfer now and then to OWL then the teams on contenders lose key players + have to replace them and train their teamwork all over again. Like with Saya, Architect and Void.
