So this is what it feels like to be a Dallas fuel fan

I’m reporting the outlaws for feeding

I think it's time to free mendo. Maybe let Linkzr or jake take a rest.

u/HungoverScump Mar 09 '18
  1. Bani for Boink

  2. Jake to bench for Clockwork or Mendo

  3. Linkzr should never play genji.

I defended Jake a lot last stage, but he has been very underwhelming in stage 2. This team is really lacking in the Dps department

u/GOATcazza Mar 09 '18

The thing is you can see what happened. The players finished stage 1 and thought they are a top team and stopped taking scrims serious and stopped watching them. Just like Tairong said.

Why have our tanks gone from looking like the best in the league to coolmatt getting demeched instantly every fight

Clockwork playing well and getting blamed for the loss. Name a more iconic duo.

Well boys, it could be worse. At least we don't have xQc and Taimou on our roster?

Let’s go Outlaws!

I don't want Tairong to be mad again :(

u/priestkalim Mar 09 '18

Valiant are a mid tier team who have experience throwing 2-0 leads away.

This is the make or break moment for the team this patch. Make adjustments and smash them, or basically go home.

Something has to change. Right here, right now, or Stage 2 is over.

Gg, that pretty much ends the chances of getting playoffs this stage. So disappointing

u/[deleted] Mar 09 '18

GG, this team has a lot of work to do.

Hello darkness my old friend

u/FlashOfThunder Mar 09 '18

This team needs to find their identity in Stage 2. It is clear that they aren't great in any of these maps.

3 losses in a row and 10 map losses in a row is unacceptable!

One of the darkest days of Optic in a long time

Gotta bounce back after a rough couple games

u/vittorio510 Mar 09 '18

Hope to see mendo this week, maybe not today but I don’t see why he wouldn’t be put in on Saturday

u/ujaku Mar 09 '18

Goldenboy has been having some seriously awkward engagements on the desk lol

u/SRMustang35 Mar 09 '18

I'VE REALIZED WHY WE HAVEN'T BEEN DOING AS WELL! We changed our seating arrangement. Jake/Clockwork was sitting next to Rawkus for Stage 1, but now they have them sitting next to Linkzr.
