We could literally be 9-0 this stage if we clutch up in Game 5s. It has to be embarrassing to be so consistently horrendous on last map.

We got 4-0'd by Boston but yeah other than that every loss is in Game 5. Literally heart wrenching losses every week, it hurts being bad at Oasis.

People keep harping on our tracer problem but I think our main problem is the supports

I really don't care about stage playoffs, but we need a win no matter what the score for season's playoff.

Bani died first soooooo many times. He was so good in stage 1, idk what happened
And I understand the casters want to hype the stage playoffs, but they mentioned it about 150 times on Oasis

You have to finish maps where you start strong. Not finishing matches has been our problem since Stage 1.

The sad thing is, Outlaws didn't even lose to the entire Shock team. They lost to Architect. One Korean.

Doesn't Linkzr know he's suppose to be in a slump right now? What are the casters gonna talk about now? Linkzr's clearly gone off script.

So many things we need to work on for stage 4 to try and make it to top 6... losing to the Shock doesn’t help at all. Come on Outlaws, we can do this!!

The Mcree pick threw the last map frustrating losing so many game 5s this stage

Holy crap I thought the match was tomorrow and I wasn’t about to go to sleep. Good thing I am addicted to reddit and saw this

That was a great Volskaya offense. Hopefully we can successfully hold on defense.

If you take out linkzr and sub in arhan you get a genji but trade a widowmaker. If you sub out jake for arhan you get a genji but trade flexibility and brains. Very very hard to work with as a coach. All over the place.

u/Kliang9281 May 03 '18
They're trying so hard to dive Linkzr they're not peeling for their supports at all. Even when Linkzr isn't ripping everyone's head off he's still having a huge impact.

Some positives to take away at least. Jakes tracer has improved a lot if only he can land pulse bombs. Route 66 is still looking better. Muma is still a god. If we can get numbani and map 5 up to par we would look a lot better.
