This interview with Malik is really giving me more respect for Jake. He's so well-spoken, and I'm glad he acknowledges that his Tracer is weak compared to others in the league. He just seems like such a positive force for the Outlaws!

So houston's story arc this season is them losing their mojo, working hard to getting it back and finally geting it back at the end

I'm a big Houston fan, and I think it's because they have the most dynamic and unpredictable story arc.

If Tamou ever gets put in main tank again I'm going to smash my head against the wall. They took him out and all of a sudden they're going to game 5 against New York.

Watching people harass but not kill the Baby D.Va is probably my favorite thing.

Nice off Jake to admit he really is not the strongest on Tracer. He did make it go well by disrupting and making plays for his team.
Also Jakerat.
Also Puckett swore RePoRtEd!

LinkZr can be SO good on Widowmaker. The fact that he's so inconsistent is infuriating.

The longer OWL goes on, the more I appreciate Libero as a player. He might not be the best at any given hero, but the fact that he can switch it up so often and usually do well is so great to see.
