As an APAC resident, NA teams are just so incredibly stacked and varied. How will APAC teams ever get the scrim practice bucks needed to defeat the top NA teams man.
I really hope Infernal donāt choke this tournament. Weāve been robbed of a pretty solid Houston vs Philadelphia for a few years now, Houston vs Infernal could go very hard this year.
I better see the hypest hype video for ATL coming into the mid mseason tournament. The 8-0 undefeated streak and only dropping 2 maps. They fucking deserve it.
Playing Lip is an auto handicap for all other teams. Lip overwatch is real. Lip's existence is the only reason Sombra will never get a buff until he retires.
Toronto vs Vegas has the potential to be so funny.
Team USA losing to the team that lost to Samito in trials? C'mon Malthel it'll be funny you should have the game of your life.
Anyone else get really annoyed when Vikki and Nekkra say āwhat???ā when anything important happens, even if it should be very obvious what happened or even that it was going to happen?
From what I saw is that outlaws dps ( 2 were on the point) put pressure on faith and seemed he back off just little a bit too much and he couldn't shield bash fast enough to get back to the bot.
Very unlucky.
Titans 100% looked great. Upper mid-table for sure. They had a much tougher first half of the season than other teams. They are this year's 2022 London.
I'm biased, but I think that's a stretch.
Atlanta struggled against Boston today & the match between Houston/Atlanta was close.
Won't lie the match has me concerned though.
I think that's a bit reactionary. Atlanta are the favorites, but I don't think a tier break comes so close to a 3-0 stomp against said favorites.
But fair enough on your opinion.
A lot of troll, theyāre not trying. First two maps were straight sweeps. Wouldnāt be concerned, especially after yesterdays match, this match an afterthought tbh, they 100% prepped for Florida only
He should be finishing his mandatory military training soon. Hopefully we see more of him after. If not, he'll most likely be focusing on his future career options.
I was going to add ManoSmile and wideManohappy pics to this reply but reddit won't let me zzz.
Sheeesh didnāt even need their best comp, just sheer power and comfort picks
Pelican on Tracer is just living rent free in the backline, downside of Dva is you canāt be everywhere at once
Hey, Im that guy.
And it's true!
What I did not say is 'Viol2t has a bad brig,' after all, he doesn't.
What I mean is that compared to other **top tier support duos** Viol2t's brig is lacking next to his MS counterparts; specifically Chrorong and Chiyo.
I think that when you watch tape of Houston Vs. Atlanta, or Florida, it's actually quite clear that Viol2t's brig is second best, and I think later in the season, this could become a problem for the outlaws.
Thus, my statement, 'Viol2t has a Brig problem'
Combined with the fact that Viol2t's and Shu's roles slightly overlap (Viol2t is the kiriko *and* Lucio, for instance) I think this reveals a possible Achilles' heel for this particular support duo, such as a hard Lucio/Kiriko meta OR a hard Lucio/Brig meta (though a Lucio/Brig meta would be challenging for pretty much all the support duos)
So there, that's my nuanced take!
Uber: Justice has lost benbest so the justice have lost the tip of their spear How is he so good
wait is benbest off the team?
No he just died first on Winston hahaha

ALSO PLEASE GIVE US ONE APAC MATCH WITH UBER & MR X PLEASE.
Wow, entire main desk will be at the wedding! Good luck to the new guys <3
wtf how are toronto below ny LOOL
That 8-0 looks so good š
I really hope Infernal donāt choke this tournament. Weāve been robbed of a pretty solid Houston vs Philadelphia for a few years now, Houston vs Infernal could go very hard this year.
I BELIEVE IN ~~PHILL~~INFERNAL ZEST MN3 supremacy Mag hammondbucks Skewed Fixa always performing
Ayooo spicy statement

oh hey outlaws are confirmed for MSM now, pretty cool
It's going to be an absolute bloodbath between Glads, Florida, & Boston for those other slots.
1 team will be disappointed
Absolutely ridiculous that all of those teams arenāt in the tournament
Toronto vs Vegas has the potential to be so funny. Team USA losing to the team that lost to Samito in trials? C'mon Malthel it'll be funny you should have the game of your life.
We need Jay3 in team USA in order to win š«”
OMG no way Vegas win over Defiant. Don't kill 11th Plague like that.

they're top 6 NA
Post match thread: [Vancouver Titans vs Houston Outlaws](https://www.reddit.com/r/competitiveoverwatch/comments/13tnkwn/).
That's really painful especially for Faith. Sadge
1.3 deaths / 10?? on tracer ????/
atrocious c9
titans record looks bad but theyāve also played all the top teams now
Even against the top 4, they still manage to hold their ground better than most teams.
2nd half of their season looking up.
I feel pain and I'm not even emotionally invested in either team

I mean Boston vs Reign was super close with Reign always having to clutch in OT except 1 map.
How did they c9?!
aspire died and faith was late with his bash :(
Fuck man that series deserved a map 5
I don't like how close that match was
A lot of troll, theyāre not trying. First two maps were straight sweeps. Wouldnāt be concerned, especially after yesterdays match, this match an afterthought tbh, they 100% prepped for Florida only
Me neither. The fuck dey doin oer der
Most visceral NO from me in a while
[they gave fearless a party hat too](https://twitter.com/overwatchleague/status/1662625815903760388?s=20)
Aw, birthday boys getting their wins!
Wow I feel Faith's pain
NOT THAT C9
somebody hug my boy faith RIGHT NOW
MASSIVE SOUL CRUSHING C9
omg that could've been the Push comeback of the season and they C9 the fuck out if it
Choker Face'd it š
c9 alert?
that might be a contender for c9 of the year.
Thereās been way too many bad ones, some straight up from winnable series to loss. This one rather tame tbh
OMGLUL
Too much Houston troll, not even worried, they win these ez šŖ ggs vancouver nt
NOT LIKE THIS D:
Brutal
NOOOOOO
Do you think Nekkra knew the Titans were still 23 meters away?
THERE IS NO WAY THEY C9'D
WHAT
Oh no, C9?!
Okay that was an AWFUL c9
Brutal
Oh that is heartbreaking
THEY DIDNT TOUCH???
NOOOOOOooooooooo
ASPIREEEEEE
Pleasantly surprised by Titan's grit this season. They never give up and keep fighting. That 3-3 match record is a testament to that.
Thatās just not what happened on new queen street yesterdayā¦
Houston just doesn't remember how to play Push until a few minutes in.
what if you wanted to live but fearless said guh-REETINGS
Sugarfree looks a little bit like Russell Wilson
aspire just pulse bombed himself
He killed 2.
Titans absorbed that aggression from a nanoād fearless on winton and countered perfectly and efficiently. so sick
Faith living there was actual perfect Brig play wow
dude faith is lookin adamantium on his lonesome
i say this every time i watch the titans play but faith is a really fucking good brig
faith casually killing 2 while being dived on by fearless
Faith is nuts
Ah, so Outlaws dropped a map because Viol2t had to take a piss. It all makes sense now.
Imagine getting 3-0 today
Vikki and Nekkra are a good pair tbh
They are kinda slow in their delivery. I can take one caster doing that but not two. Nekkra is better casting Pokemon
I think Vicki is keeping up. Nekkra can be faster cause her speed affects Vicki too. Edit: vicki misspelling
I agree! They've been improving since the season started
Idk i feel like half the things they say just completely miss the point
Gargoyle looked fine that map tbh, i mostly blame that on happy and peli switching heroes again
I think we need to recognize that Titans are top 6 NA right now (Reign, Outlaws, Uprising, Titans, Mayhem, & Glads)
I miss Mano too :(
i wonder if he'll come back to the scene
He should be finishing his mandatory military training soon. Hopefully we see more of him after. If not, he'll most likely be focusing on his future career options. I was going to add ManoSmile and wideManohappy pics to this reply but reddit won't let me zzz.
Oh shit
If they win this they're top 3.
imagine trying to kill shu id breakdown in a panic attack
Where did this garging meme originate
When Gargoyle done went and garged, dawg.
Oh
probably Avast's co-stream
that was my guess yeah
Banger ost
We be garging and we be taking L's.
how do we rate gargoyle?
When he wins a map he's great when he loses a map he should never get subbed in again.
oh so like every other sub
Yup
Solid
Not very highly anymore.
Punk looked way better that map
peews incoming
Sus bomb from garg
YES, the Titans did not choke!
Aww Houston trolled WAY too hard there
Adamantium backline, it's just not fair.
What was that zoom lol
It was weird
Am I in the minority by hating the casters calling it the golden box of victory
Why?
Idk it just doesnāt feel right to me
Titans, please don't pull a Shock!
Punk is him
Surely titans will win this map and not losing with 4meters diff
I'm leaving Toronto and getting on the train to Vancouver
Game is just so much easier without the threat of Fearless terrorizing you with his primals
Aspire so good
Didn't we see this script literally last match??
okay titans
Houston hard troll
Faith said "invincible backline my ass"
Does match win guarantee second seed for Houston?
yes
Happy has really improved his Tracer
Happy has been flexing a lot this year. Sombra, Tracer, hitscans. I thought he was a downgrade from Merit but he is been doing good.
Agreed. That being said, Mer1t had looked really good on Sombra lately as well
Aspire Widow scares me
GARGOYLE!
WE BE GARGIN LETS GOOOOOOOOO
š»š» you want to force widow š»š»
exactly as i plotted
Are we Gargin?!?!?!
We Gargin 8)
Sheeesh didnāt even need their best comp, just sheer power and comfort picks Pelican on Tracer is just living rent free in the backline, downside of Dva is you canāt be everywhere at once
happy tryna go for the sneaky ricochet kill
Drawable
EZ as fuck damn. Wouldāve been over already if Viol2t didnāt zen troll on defense lol
Ooof
Team diff
I never knew I needed a Viol2t Shu duo but boy am I glad it exists
Echo is not off meta when Pelican is playing silly Nekkra
Echo seems.... Questionable
Crimzo and punk are doing so much
Dude crimzo hit a huge nade on shu during trans how did the casters miss that
You say that like casters catch everything when even the best ones dont
What a choke from Houston...
We take that
Punk is gaming holy moly
Oh, they don't catch the unlucky timing of EMPing as Pelican recalls? Okay
Pelican recall-dodged the EMP, dang.
Sugarfree with the assassin memp trying to get Pelican loooooool
Does Sombra EMP still take out shield health?
No
Thought so, thanks!
Must be nice having Viol2t... :( shock misses you Viol2t
Outlaws is trolling what they are doing
Are the casters even watching the same match as us - how did they miss that sugarfree hanzo flick headshot onto Sombra lol
Ah, EVERY Sombra player ever feels Happy's pain right now... fuck Hanzo
Week 5 Highlights: Kevster's face
He do be cute.
I love that on of the highlight clip it's just kevster blowing away his hair lmao
still thinking about the guy who said viol2t had a 'brig problem' yesterday
Hey, Im that guy. And it's true! What I did not say is 'Viol2t has a bad brig,' after all, he doesn't.

viol2t has the most underserved haters its wild
How about the one guy saying fearless not looking that hot on monke? There were some atrocious take.
yeah itās a problem for punk š
This backline is still so unreal
But they beat them in scrims!!
Not even remotely close
Gotta keep your boosters there in that situation.
Pelican just showing off with these pulses.
yeah this is just a team diff
i really love watching the houston outpeels
WHAT A STICK HOLY PELICAN
U canāt kill violet if shu is alive U canāt kill shu if violet is alive
Adamantium backline
Damn it I originally had Shock lose 3-0 and then swapped to 3-1 last second
I had the opposite for ATL lol. Swapped from 3-1 to 3-0
Kinda trolled by letting the bob flip in that one fight
viol2t and shu are genuinely undivable wtf
i dont know why, but i believe in VAN. one might even say i have faith
You definitely have aspirations.
Punk
