Overwatch League|OT|Sold my Seoul to be part of the Dynasty
- Thread starter EssBeeVee
- Start date
They have weird start times, tonight starts at 7pm, yesterday at 5pm, then tomorrow will be at 2 pm, always check:https://overwatchleague.com/en-us/schedule
r/competitiveoverwatch like him, but r/overwatch certainly don't and Bliz have made it clear in the past which one they listen to.
I'm not disputing he deserves a ban, he does, but no need to blow it out of proportions
Oh sweet thanks for this! I genuinely thought that today it began at the same time as yesterday so when I didn't get a notification I got sad lol.
But now I'm just going to copy the schedule to my calendar on my phone.
True on that i guess, maybe reduce cooldown by 3 seconds by getting a kill with it
Alright. So, who thinks the Uprising can snag a map or a couple of points off Seoul?
Oh yikes they have the core team out.

Remove snipers, bastion and Junkrat from the game and this map might be fun!
Srsly so, not a single fun map post Eichenwalde.
Wait is that confirmed? I don't remember seeing that anywhere.
Boston started out strong, but man did they fail at that last point. Their Mercy got baited quite a few times over the course of the match by going in too deep for some rezzes.
That was pretty good! Uprising tried their best and actually got far before they fell through at the last point.
I think once Flow3r turns 18, NYXL might be able to give them a run for their money.
Yeah sure. Even Merch sales in the Blizzard shop. Only regional sales will go directly to the team. This is the "NFL" Model.
I mean you buy coins and no team skins. It's pretty obvious.
Some of the responses to this tweet show that xQc's fans are taking it well.
This I think is the interesting cross-section between investors wanting to make E-Sports like the Overwatch League a thing and having to deal with an often toxic online community.
The fact of the matter is, there's a huge difference between someone who is going to stream and only represent themselves and someone who's going to be part of a team and league that they will be representing.
There's a lot of money on the line when it comes to these kinds of things, and I'm not talking about prize pools. I'm talking future business opportunities for E-Sports in a market where older TV, sports, and general entertainment executives are trying to find ways to relate to a younger generation of fans.
I remember having this specific discussion with people at one of the networks I work at about six months ago. They were interested in a large tournament they wanted to hold to see how E-Sports would play on terrestrial TV and see if they can get gamers to move from watching a computer monitor or phone to turn on the TV. I tried to warn them that depending on the game there's different levels of professionalism they can expect. Though we're all used to dealing in the world of sports where trash talk is something we're all fully made aware of, gaming at least as I felt can be a bit more toxic especially so when you're dealing with people who may only be sitting a few feet away from each other. At the end of the day they need to be aware that this kind of thing can happen and act accordingly. Like any professional sports league, if someone does something that is detrimental to the image of the league or team, they need to be dealt with strongly and firmly to establish that certain things won't stand. The ire of a certain player's fans is not going to be as bad as the ire of advertisers or corporate partners who are the ones risking millions of dollars.
This I think is a good sign from the Overwatch League. Whether these guys made up themselves isn't the issue. xQc didn't just embarrass himself but his teammates and a fledgling league trying to find its footing. These guys when they sign a contract agree to follow a specific Code of Conduct and when they fail to uphold that, this is the result. I think this is a positive sign for things to come if teams remain consistent here.
6 ultimates on each side, but one mercy goes down and the fight is already decided. That says it all about this meta lol.
It's always the Mercy. She really does have too much influence over the game. It's ridiculous.
Uprising is trying it's hardest but Dynasty keeps schooling them so far.

Interesting, makes me wonder how many of the players would be typical assholes if you happened to play with them online.
They were more screwed this match by how flawed 2CP is than Mercy i feel
Well, the Fuel's official Discord is deleting any discussion of xQc's comments.
Screw it, there are 11 other teams in the league, and none of them are stanning for a homophobe.
