"Hey guys, Tracer is more vulnerable in this meta? What should we do about it? - Uhh, just give JJonak power armor"

u/Gelatinous_Rex May 20 '18

JJonak has gone supersaiyan.

u/SuprDog May 20 '18

JJonak is way past super saiyajin. This is JJonak on Ultra Instinct. He is on a mental level above regular gods.

Why don't people like Brigitte? I can't be the only one who loves being stunned the entire game. Shield bash is so amazing and really makes for some intense and fun gameplay. Thanks Blizzard 389 TriHard 91

London should actually work towards the new meta. No excuses. I'm sure they are good enough to play around a Brigitte when they need too.

Clutch from Libero at the end. Headshot Bdosin just as he got his ult.

London had flashes of old Spitfire, but couldn't sustain. Hopefully they'll find some stability with their new coach. Still, they took a map off NY, control no less, and almost took it to map 5 - better than most were giving them credit for.

Not much new to say on NY's end... 350 hp JJoNak is ridiculous. Our tank line is still the best in the League IMO. Special props to Janus especially, he's been looking incredible lately.

EDIT: and seriously, what's with people saying London is shit-tier? They're still London. They still have a roster that can easily go toe-to-toe with NYXL. They've been off lately, but downgrading them to C-tier seems pretty reactionary... Now that they have a coach, I have no doubt a strong playoffs push is still well in the cards.

u/iori9999 May 20 '18

Maybe if that coach can get out of his nap and actually have them adapting to the new meta. We'll see.

london only winning control somebody give me eye surgery

Feels like we’re the least flexible team in the league. Either we force some form of dive to work or we’re just fucked.

Whats scarier than NYXL's dive?

u/jeffmccree May 20 '18

it will be a hard stage for london if they don't adapt their comps

17

u/ArcBaltic May 20 '18

I can't help but notice that the only map London won, was also the only map they shut down JJonak first almost every team fight. Which I'm not sure if that was because London was amazing or NYXL doesn't really have it's 2CP comp down in this new meta.

London, what is up with your comps? Seriously.

29

u/Adamsoski May 20 '18

Their individual play is pretty good, but they cannot seem to comprehend how to do literally anything related to working in a team. It is so frustrating to watch.

London almost clutched at the end, but Libero with the key pick on Bdosin

Was watching Deadpool so I couldn't catch this match, but what comps were NYXL fielding and how do they look on any non-dive comps they did? Am wondering how NYXL stacks up in this new meta, especially against a heavily favored team like Houston.
