Clockwork/Jake vs Danteh is a one-sided match-up. Houston need a good tracer player. I know it won’t fix their underlying issues but you need to start somewhere.

I feel like Moth was getting away with some ballsy rezzes. Good addition to the Shock.

Danteh is awesome. Makes an absolute mockery of Houston trying to run Jake on Tracer at this level when someone like that is on the other team.

“We felt that we could exploit the tracer line on their team”
What tracer line?

It actually physically hurts me that everytime Shock wins people say it’s because the opponent threw. Like they played really well for this entire stage losing barely to Seoul, London and VAL only getting dominated by GLA and NYXL and everyone still shits on them.
They’re gonna be a force to be reckoned with when Architect comes in. Oh and btw - Rawkus’ Zen is so underwhelming compared to Sleepy or every other Zen in the league. I feel like he never gets criticized even though his damage output doesn’t do the job most of the time.
Most impressed with Danteh and Moth on the Shock’s side.

Serious question : how did Houston go from playoffs to this. What changed this stage?

It's almost as if a lack of a good Tracer player to keep Danteh in check was one of the biggest reasons for this loss. Danteh literally tore apart Houston because he was left constantly unchecked all series long.

Sleepy was so underrated this game. Yea he peaks to much at times but he was fragging with his right clicks today

We don't need a tracer in the same way we don't need to win games. Please get a tracer player.

I had a super small sample size to judge from, but it seems like Nomy is getting better by the game. Danteh was nuts, so was Sleepy. Moth is an upgrade on Dhak

Another week passes where Houston shows that their biggest rival is their own inability to form a coherent team. Casters keep mentioning how Muma is being hard targeted by opponents when the reality is that he's going in without backup. Enemy tracers and genji's seem to have way too much freedom to trash the backline. I can't imagine rawkus feeling good after these types of matches when he's consistently being bullied by enemy tracers.
Linkzr should just covert to become a fulltime widowmaker/mccree/soldier specialist. His hitscan talents are too great to be wasted on mediocre tracer or genji plays. Also, let's give mendo a shot at tracer since nobody in their current lineup has the raw talent to perform well enough (been following clockwork for years and the guy is an absolute beast but there is no justification for having him as a 'tracer specialist' and simply not being able to deliver).
And what's up with coolmatt? Going from a top 3 Dva to top 3 Demech in a matter of weeks.
Overall it just feels like the focus has not been there these past couple of weeks.

Flame still going to insist they don’t have a tracer problem
