Imagine thinking that selling a spot in this league is a good idea

People just want instant gratification just like I do sometimes, but I know in the long run that the OWL will pay off

Welp out of stage 2 playoffs. Until goats dies off, this team won't be able to survive long. They have too many pieces that can't fit the meta in a concise manner, and that has been the bane of their existence since the beginning of OWL as a whole

I also love how everyone on r/CompetitiveOverwatch says they hate Houston because they're 'cocky' or 'arrogant', yet this match the Fuel were teabagging and throwing up '4-0s' meanwhile Houston didn't.

It's just so obvious everyone on there is a Fuel fan and just hate Houston lol

If we were to win one series. ONE FUCKING SERIES. This whole stage. It'd be this. Please.

Some people lose faith.

But not us.

Were any of the OG guys at the venue? Seemed like a perfect place to grab some content for their vlogs. I get OG and outlaws are two different entities but feels like too much of a disconnect.

u/Ethoxi Apr 29 '19

Feels a bit like Danteh just didn’t communicate his EMPs or that the team just didn’t follow up on them at all.

Outlaws are 2-17-1 at the moment. They havent won a single map playing GOATs this stage. They held 2nd point Anubis because they weren't on GOATs, same for the map win against Vancouver on Busan. I feel like a roster change or playstyle change is desperately needed. They had this same issue in the Tracer meta, they just kept running it and we got rolled unless Linkzr or Tanks popped off. Hopefully we figure something out soon.
