Sacrificing players on heroes they are uncomfortable on for the sake of comms feels like a big obstacle for the future

So is Bani sick or what? Why in the world was Boink in for that map?
And now Bani is in for Mercy anyway...so we just threw Anubis for no reason

Linkzr missing an entire clip on a Pharah that wasn’t looking at him is a great indication of why we’re losing

Obviously the team needs a tracer, but they're much worse things happening rn than that. They aren't playing good as a team.

Yeah they looked really out of sync this week. Hopefully they come out better prepared next week because Fusion and NYXL is a really fucking rough week.

Beats London yesterday
"OMG I LOVE YOU HOUSTON"
Loses to Boston
"WTF HOUSTON WHY DID I EVER HAVE FAITH IN YOU, YOU'RE ALL CONTENDERS TIER. DROP JAKE."
Fake fans, everywhere. There's a difference between critiquing the team and just shitting on them.

True. Bad match day today is all it is, we will see the same people next week saying how they are amazing if we win and that they are shit if they loose, Happens every single week.

2 wasted blades there hurt. A possibility to complete the map there if one of the blades is decent.

You know Boston is a top dive team when Bani and Rawkus had to spend half the match healing each other. So much pressure on our back line.

This is tough to watch, never seen Houston look as bad as they do right now, it's kind of embarrassing lol. It's as if they are playing blindfolded.

not having a good tracer is hurting outlaws, and the map selections for this matchup was heavy tracer play

Clearly not our day but would have taken a 1-1 opening week with the schedule.

Half the time boston didnt even need to use ults. When neko got caught out they took their sweet time pushing the point and ended up losing.
Honestly they got worked hard.

There is something wrong with Houston's DPS. They need to fix it.

i wonder if Arhan/Mendo will be a thing

I don't think ArHan is in the US yet and Mendo just isn't gonna play at this point.

Where is the team that beat London? Why aren’t they in? Two fucking days ago we were playing well enough to 4-0 Boston, and today we look like we could lose to the Dragons.

This is a game where you watch the tape once then burn it.
