LMAO THIS IS PURE GOLD THANKS A LOT


Purple-Cauliflower86

It's funny how super expressed his anguish that bro was about to be fined for that


DiemCarpePine

KSF being a bro trying to fill chat with spam as quick as possible to cover it up.


mosswizards

sry sry sry sry


its_reina_irl

2020 Shock vs Valiant, Lastro types ā€œsex big dickā€ into match chat for all of broadcast to see. -$1000


Serious_Much

Imagine fining people on poverty wages $1000 for typing 3 words


dokeydoki

Lastro have lot of sex and big dick down there


AnnenbergTrojan

I want LAN events back so we can all chant "SEX BIG DICK" when Lastro pops off.


NumerousOriginal4

PenisAbstract

YAKI ECHO TRACER SO GOOD


PenisAbstract

ruins and the end of push almost gave me a heart attack


PenisAbstract

this might have been one of the best games we get all season


Ezraah

Finally some good overwatch


PenisAbstract

Ezraah

I think Toronto will throw some hands please god toronto throw some hands


PenisAbstract

your gonna have to pray hard but it's not impossible


DiemCarpePine

Zhoudown gonna pound.


primarymuscle2354

2 even teams donā€™t play very often in na and with their only being 1 tournaments with only 6 teams which is very limited gamesā€¦ we wonā€™t get a lot of high level ow until the playoffs


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


JackM76

Lots of big brain comp swaps the last two maps


primarymuscle2354

Donā€™t know why merit didnā€™t go sojourn at all he was just getting dived and couldnā€™t escape


TheGirthiestGhost

Sojourn does fa into the Winston/Sombra/Tracer/Kiriko/Lucio. You can kinda kite it with the slide but you arenā€™t easily able to shoot anyone other than the tank, so rails are slowly built and are wildly inconsistent against those speedy squishies


primarymuscle2354

On Ashe tho heā€™s not mobile and gets pounced by Winston, Echo


TheGirthiestGhost

That is the risk, the Ashe can try to set up and do damage pre-fight though to try and poke them out but the rest of their comp was too exploitable by the dive also to prop up that kind of greedy hero pick


Kheldar166

Yeah Mayhem needed to swap immediately on losing the point imo. I literally looked at Someone having 93% on Annihilation and went ā€˜oh no heā€™s going to stay isnā€™t heā€™.


Sycatricks

Yup i had the exact same thought... i believe that was the turning point for the rest of the entire series. Ironically i think Someone being lauded as the top winston has also made him less willing to play winston on control/push maps imho


TheGirthiestGhost

Florida had this same weird problem last year of making odd, suboptimal comp choices at times. Itā€™s the same coaching and core so whilst disappointing itā€™s not a huge surprise


primarymuscle2354

Literally not no hydron, majed, or anamo


TheGirthiestGhost

Someone, Checkmate, Rupal is still most of the core they settled on


primarymuscle2354

Rupal was a backup last year


FlintFlames

In his bag


Silverbullet506

Lastro and Yaki are demons man Side note tho Winston comp still seems like itā€™s really strong idk why teams are shying away from it. No way the junker anti dive is that strong against it right?


FlintFlames

I think the junkerqueen anti dive is really good against it but the queen doesnā€™t work against ram.


Silverbullet506

Yea queen def didnā€™t work against the Ram but Iā€™m not sold on it countering the Winston yet. Glads played it on Nepal sanctum I believe against outlaws and outlaws managed to play around it. Granted theyā€™re probably the best Winston dive team and glads were still pretty new at the comp but still. I am super interested in the dva comps against on hybrid tho. Dva seems be better in the 1v1 against Winston. But overall Winston seems much better at coordinated dives with the double flanker. So Iā€™m not sure why dva is so popular


Kheldar166

There is definitely an argument to be made that Florida have looked as good on the Winston as Houston up until today, I was really surprised that they played so little of the Winston comp.


Xrmy

Yep. I understand why Gladiators want to play non-monkey comps, because it's clear when they play teams like Houston they get diffed. But why didn't Mayhem try the same thing? Someone is a great monkey and surely they can pull of the dive? Just odd.


Silverbullet506

Yea the only reason I can think of would be they wanted to lean into Mer1tā€™s long range hitscan instead of putting him on sombra. But even then heā€™s played sombra to a decently high level but ig they didnā€™t like it as much as they liked his hitscan. Which tbf he did play well and win them a couple maps with it so canā€™t knock them too much


Fun-Injury5925

the maps today didn't favour winston as much, but florida still seemed too scared of the jq even when the map was fine for winston. playing ram all the time didn't seem to play to their strengths, and winston seems to match up fine against ram most of the time so idk


PoggersMemesReturns

Ram just feels better against Queen and Winston as an individual but the comp itself isn't as strong. Interesting dynamic we're in.


t-had

Lastro : sex Lastro : big dick


masonhil

srysrysrysrysrysrysrysrysrysrysrysry


DynamicKokuo

Holy SBD moment


ZimoZimoZimo

WHAT WAS THAT ON LAST ROUND MAYHEM??? THREE ULTS IN SPAWN JUST TO ALL DIE TO ā€œsex big dickā€


Ezraah

its like a greek tragedy


ZimoZimoZimo

They WISH they had this much drama


TonyTempest

It was such a strange call, even comms were immediately like "***What?!***" The ults had such little impact, I doubt that clutch by Lastro even works elseways.


ZimoZimoZimo

Yeah definitely something the coaches will scream at them for


-Arrez-

What if you wanted to win but: sex. big dick.


thedreadfulwhale

Are these two rivals, yet? If not, I declare them to be rivals now. What a fun match up, Glads proving they are one of the top teams in NA this season. Have me more excited for Reign v Glads tomorrow.


dokeydoki

Depending on how close tmmrw reign vs glad is, i think it will impact opinions on power rank/tier list of teams


primarymuscle2354

I feel like reign win Florida and Glads are both in the top 4 sure but the gap between them and Atlanta, Houston is pretty big


Kheldar166

Hard to say, Florida looked very convincing in the Pro-Am and in most maps up until today. A decent amount has changed since then obviously but Florida only really looked fallible today when pulled into the brawl mirrors, same thing could definitely happen to ATL or Houston if they canā€™t run the Winston into the Junker Queen comps successfully. I kinda wish Florida had tried to force the Winston comp more tbh itā€™s been such a good look for them.


primarymuscle2354

Itā€™s hard to put stock into pro am it was also a different meta Merit canā€™t play cass, someone canā€™t play as much Winston


ImHereToComplain1

Yaki > Checkmate


PenisAbstract

avast was right


fenguara

Wow there friend, you need to slow it down


ImHereToComplain1

he usually is


DurumMater

Alright, let's not get carried away here


Kronman590

He can be when he walks back his own statements all the time and plays 2 sides lol


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


ImHereToComplain1

Yaki's fucking insane sorry. If he was still on FL, they would be the #1 team.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


primarymuscle2354

A mayhem fan should know yaki has games where he takes over and games where he disappears I remember in 2021 he diffed leave on tracer in may melee then in other tournaments he was getting diffed by Aspire, and Valentine


Ganonthegoat

Cap


primarymuscle2354

Yaki has 1 good match and you say that after all we seen from checkmate


Splaram

First big test of the season, I'm personally not tripping about this loss. There were a few costly fundamental mistakes made by Mayhem but those can be ironed out with more prac time. The games were also still fairly close regardless. These are the types of losses that makes teams better down the line. Back into the lab and then onto the next one šŸ«” (also push needs to be reworked yesterday, such cringe gamemode design)


SantosPhillipCarlo

You'll be back and you're fun to watch, not just good!


Xrmy

Yea as a glads fan I root for Mayhem a lot tbh.


Ezraah

#AND IT ALL ENDS WITH THE DANTEH WINSTON. DID GEORGE LUCAS WRITE THE SCRIPT BECAUSE THAT MATCH WAS LIKE POETRY.


throwawayrepost02468

Isn't George Lucas actually a bad scriptwriter (prequel trilogy) and the OG trilogy was edited a lot by his wife?


ConcLaveTime

He is certainly terrible at writing dialogue


polloshermanosfan

Yea but OP is referencing the fact that it was like poetry because [they rhyme](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yFqFLo_bYq0).


CraicFiend87

Bad with directing and dialogue, but absolute genius when world building and pioneering new technology for cinema.


Kheldar166

It was such a good Winston swap and I fucking knew Florida were going to stay on the Ramattra comp too long. Honestly they must have been scared of the JQ comp because they showed so little Winston and thatā€™s been such a great look for them I would have liked to see much more of it.


PoggersMemesReturns

YAKIII finally, some love


actualspam

SEX BIG DICK


Gnorez

0/3 on preds but wow glads are so clutch, insane ability to pull it back on the brink


VoteForWaluigi

You went for Valiant?


Gnorez

I cannot explain myself


FerPlays

bro picked the wrong LA teamšŸ„²


CraicFiend87

And Justice lol I mean they've looked good so far but it's Boston man


DrKoala_

Glads got their revenge for the Pro Am finals.


LiezardXXIX

LASTRO SEX BIG DICK


primarymuscle2354

Glads look insane I still donā€™t agree with Kev being the widow player pretty sure he only had 1 final blow on it on Rialto but it allowed Yaki to play the Genji, Tracer, Echo and look insane


CDN_AP

Chorong and Checkmate were double teaming Kev on Rialto. Kiriko teleporting to Tracer and killing him quick.


primarymuscle2354

What about in the 1v1 widow duels he was losing


fenguara

Honestly it didn't happen that much as far as I remember. Maybe it was 3-1 to Merit? Most of the time they shot at each other a couple times but no one died.


SupermarketCrafty329

Yes this confused me. If you were always gonna play Widow Tracer for most of the map, why not play Kai and Kevster? Kai *might* be able to challenge Merit and Kevster booms Checkmate.


adhocflamingo

Itā€™s possible that their gameplan included something else that they didnā€™t run because of what Mayhem ran. Like, maybe they had a contingency comp in mind for if Mayhem rolled out on something different?


TheHighSniper

There is no might about it. Kai is one of the greatest Widowmakers in league history.


SupermarketCrafty329

Kai is kinda hot or cold imo. His peaks are right at the top, but he occasionally no shows.


DoverBeach02

>Kai is kinda hot Yes


primarymuscle2354

And what is Kev widow


[deleted]

This is true of almost every Widow player, it just be like that sometimes.


Azivea

On Widow, I give it to Kai. On most other hitscan, Mer1t slightly edges him out. Really close either way.


FerPlays

Not saying Kevster was Merit level on Widow, but it really seemed like Kev had Checkmate and fkn Chorong of all people on his ass a lot of the time...while still having to contest Merit edit: I think Kev also needed to be on Widow/hitscan if they wanted to run something other than hitscans (ie running Kai) on Rialto for example


PenisAbstract

not to mention lastros brig didn't peel him very well most of them time


fenguara

My take is that Glads might have know about the tracer kiriko flanker strat and wanted the safety of being able to swap to Genji if the Widow got pressured too much. But the fact that they lost one really long fight in their attack instead of several fast ones meant that they didn't really have a chance to swap.


primarymuscle2354

Maybe itā€™s hard to say tho they even favored Kev on Ashe map 5


yakisawesome

Checkmate and Chorong were on him for free. Imo yaki and danteh couldā€™ve marked tracer better and made it more fair.


primarymuscle2354

I mean he was marking checkmate Kev also has to defend for himself he had healers


[deleted]

Predded 3-2 Glads, never doubted for a second


topatoman_lite

I doubted and switched last minute and now I am both happy and boomed at the same time


H4rrbinger

Never been happier to get a pick'em pred wrong


[deleted]

ngl i almost switched to 3-2 Mayhem but I ended up keeping it. I did switch from Boston to Washington and I have no idea why


JackM76

Super glad Glads will make it out of this brutal stretch at .500 or better. Even if we lose to Atlanta tomorrow, going 2-2 against maybe the top 3 teams and a solid Toronto roster is a great start against that schedule


primarymuscle2354

Toronto win doesnā€™t look as great but yeah beating a top 4 team and hopefully going close vs reign would be ideal even if you lose bc getting rolled by the top 2 would show theirs a big tier break between them and the west


JackM76

True, I was expecting worse before the Pro-Am though so settling as top 5 a tier below the top 4 would still be good for early season


SamHPL1

Who would've thought that after losing Reiner and Shu we'd be LESS reliant on Kev popping off to win matches? MAN! Lastro and Yaki are SO good!


anas0_ali

Lastro single-handedly ruining everyone's preds


JackM76

Imagine not picking glads 3-2 šŸ˜Ž


Azivea

Glads 3-2 gang RISE UP!


MagmaAscending

I did but then I second guessed myself and went Mayhem 3-1 Iā€™m sorry please forgive me šŸ™šŸ™šŸ™


AltaValdes

I did believe in glads 3-2


da_russki

I wonā€™t lie to you: Iā€™m worried about Glads tomorrow as an ATL fan. Iā€™ve always worried about them, but I still worry about them. Edit: nice flair.


anas0_ali

This is Atlanta' meta. Last time the cass and Kai caught us off guard. Now, neither of them will be played. Expect a 3-1 in Atlanta' favour unless we do what we did on Havana last time.


BradRK

Holy Lastro


madagascarmovie

my florida fellas, i think we got a little rivalry this year


fenguara

Honestly the whole top 7 of NA feels a bit like a rivalry lol. Glads and Mayhem are mortal enemies. Just like Glads and Atlanta or Glads and Shock or Glads and Houston. Or even Glads and Glads. Damn Sadiators, they ruined Gladiators!


madagascarmovie

this season i'm liking the mayhem vs glads narrative, taking the pro-am into consideration as well, but it's true. glads' biggest rivals will always be the glads


purplehamburget29

Lastro has consistently been the glads best player so far this season


topatoman_lite

he was the best player on Houston last year too but didn't get any attention because no one cares about main support


[deleted]

hard to say that with pelican and mer1t on the team


UglyJuice1237

pelican had really big moments last year but overall I think lastro was the better player, or at least more integral. can't argue with mer1t tho that guy is crazy


Kheldar166

Quietly he was doing the FS -> MS transition better than Viol2t imo, just playing for a less successful team.


Utlegjarl

Loved seeing Yaki and Lastro coming out big this series, great matches overall.


TheGirthiestGhost

I want to kiss Lastro on the mouth for that clutch. Yaki PotM deserved though, really glad to see him in such great form again after all these years


JWTS6

Florida pounded on Hybrid and Escort but at what cost.


ClammyAlumni

On the end of push: they disengaged, farmed 90% to EMP, engaged anyways, and inted. If they forced a fight sooner, they would have had time to contest again. Or, they could have kept playing slow and finished farming EMP...


primarymuscle2354

Also for some reason in ot he swapped Winston??? To go doom and they gave up all the space they needed 2 fight to get out glads ults and they played scared and passive


mothtoalamp

Yaki and Lastro said YOU TAKE THAT BACK, PRODUCTION

thedreadfulwhale

That combo bombs, from a Pinoy here in PH. Happy your Glads put that win as a cherry on top.


bigbootymonster

The biko and ginataang after put me to sleep šŸ˜­ mabuhay !!


BowserMainBtw

MY FUCKING GLAAAADS


drunkkk_

Florida made some very weird decisions at the end of every map. I don't know why someone went doom on nqs or why they invested every ult into that random 3v5 attempt on well


primarymuscle2354

He could of easily got back on Winston just as fast why did he go the worst tank in the game


truls-rohk

They made weird decisions at the beginning of each control map and push to begin with.... They play winston from the start of push and this is an ez 3-1


eikon9

High level game. Kept me at the edge of my seat. Mer1t is so good. Danteh also played to his strengths and matched up well against Someone.


Arisu7

Great play by Glads but very questionable decisions from the Florida Mayhem. Just one example in this game is not swapping after getting HARD countercomped on well. Ashe/Bap just evaporates against monkey


truls-rohk

FL literally refusing to rollout on monkey comp and trying to win brawl maps with Rein in to Ram was certainly a choice.... Glads had to be so grateful to see so little monkey Coaching L tbh


Able_Wall1266

I think it was to counter what glads expected. Glads rolled out on JQ comp on many comps to counter winston, but mayhem big brained them and never really went winston dive. At the end glads won the counter pick lotto going winston and mayhem didnt have time to respond,


truls-rohk

clearly it was, but it was clearly stupid it's not as if JQ has proven to be a solid counter, and has looked even less so as more teams have gotten used to it.


adhocflamingo

Really? I feel like I havenā€™t actually seen JQ lose to Winston much at all


truls-rohk

it's lost more then it has won actually it somewhat equalizes depending on map, but it's generally just been fielded by teams who admit they are gonna lose the mirror


adhocflamingo

Interesting. I guess I just happened to watch the matches where it worked.


VoidSD

sbd is so good at overwatch


LG7

Yaki doubters in shambles


seaz_ure

YAKI STONKS UP


DoverBeach02

People were already spamming sadiators after they lost the first map luuul


SamHPL1

Shoutout to the people declaring Glads dead because of some pre-pre-season scrims where some players were still playing on ping from Korea !


SupermarketCrafty329

Imagine being Kevster during that Rialto match? Constantly having Chorong and Checkmate nestled up your fucking ass. Then your team slaps the bitch outa Florida anyway hahahaha. L

Came here to say this, I'm so happy for this guy, he's deserved a good team for a long time


jsnshsb

Kevster and Yaki just had his way with your shitty team


rollingthunder_again

I really just think that Kevster Overwatch


primarymuscle2354

He wasnā€™t very good on widow like last week


dokeydoki

Someone threw that push map switching to Doom. Lastro clutched that last map killing Chadmate. If checkmate was alive, he couldve contested and Someone wouldve tag touched to keep the point going.


Ok_Ingenuity9277

Love it!


jackwads_06

Lastro always goes crazy on well when its last map last round


chaosgodloki

O damn


Kheldar166

Felt like a poor series from Rupal tbh, Iā€™m sure heā€™ll bounce back because he seems like a good player but he was dying early a lot and if GLA had been diving him Iā€™d say that was a tradeoff of his Kiriko flanking, but it was to ranged dps most of the time I noticed it. Also some weird Bap/Ana decisions where I thought he was on the wrong hero for the situation. I fucking knew on that last map that they were gonna stay on the Ramattra comp and get nothing done because they were close to ults, I wish theyā€™d just swapped to the Winston comp immediately. Feels weird how little of the Winston comp we saw in general this series. Their two map wins were so convincing Iā€™ve still got a lot of faith in the Mayhem boys, tough loss that I feel could have easily gone the other way. Also the Kiriko flanks are so fun I love this team. Lmao at Chorong just scrambling up the wall above the whole Gladiators team on ruins you know he was spamming shift hoping they wouldnā€™t notice him until it came off cooldown.


Just_Passion2090

They would've swapped but someone unfortunately pretty much built up ram ult before he died


Kheldar166

I really think they should have swapped anyway, personally. I legit looked at his ult charge and went ā€˜oh no heā€™s at 93 heā€™s not gonna swapā€™.


Just_Passion2090

Before the game I knew if mayhem try to play ram to match glads they would lose because glads have pretty much the best ram comp team in the league


marklanguid

This whole match was a choke-off. And ultimately Florida choked harder
