Role lock, hero pools, and the youtube switch are unforced errors that would have OWL in a weak position. It'll go down as a good object lesson in not listening to a vocal online minority. It is depressing how unpracticed every team is, the game is difficult to watch because there's no predictability, and also youtube just sucks. Covid on top of that is enough to knock out the league.

Ad by Khad posted:Youtube not having the easy clip functionality that twitch does is kinda what led to my friends no longer ever watching, I can't show them cool plays anymore Twitch clips are so useful and it's utterly bizarre that YouTube doesn't have them. I'm guessing YouTube is opposed to their existence for some reason.

Dude gently caress yes, loved watching the Spark game just now. I've given up hope that we'll be competitive with Shanghai without some kind of roster move (Haksal, please? You're already in Korea, come play with us!) and NYXL is probably also out of reach, but we could be third in the conference and top-six overall, which would be a better finish than expected. Still, Seoul dunked on us before, so that was weird. Is Profit a bad Echo, or is Seoul's tank line only able to play double-shields? Both? BANG BANG edit: Assuming Paris loses to Philly here, the standings are going to be crazy. Only five teams with a winning record: Fusion Dragons NYXL Shock Spitfire (boy, this seems out of place, but they are 3-2) Eight teams with .500 record: Eternal Reign Mayhem Fuel Dynasty Titans Gladiators Spark And then seven teams with a losing record: Charge Defiant Valiant Outlaws Hunters Justice Uprising Four good teams and then CHAOS below. Carpe's not even playing here on Numbani! surf rock fucked around with this message at 20:30 on May 3, 2020 |

A large part of this is how unbalanced the scheduling has been, like I don't understand why Paris have played Philly three times but haven't played Boston once yet despite both being based on the east coast. I understand there's been a lot of limitations due to covid etc. but it's been weird even considering that.

Yeah the scheduling has been a mess. The Hunters, Charge, and Spark all look genuinely good for example (in that order, imo, despite Spark having the better record) - but they're stuck playing against each other and Shanghai. They can't all have winning records against each other and they definitely can't against Shanghai (beyond the one win the Hunters got off them). All three of those teams would probably have much better records if they were in the pool with say, Houston, Boston, Dallas, Toronto, etc.
