What do we discuss during Watchpoint? I am intrigued.

Clip the funnies. Look for signs in the stands.

Good to see you again, Wyoming…I can’t wait for things to get underway. The expectation is killing me!

I don’t know who to pick…Atlanta has the most unpredictable player in Dafran (and his vast hero pool frustrates coaches trying to plan for him), while the Gladiators has in my opinion the best intro song in the league (which for any who missed the last match, I will repeat the song they use during walkouts below…it’s “Gladiator” by Zayde Wolf).

I’m gonna go with Atlanta, 3-1. Gladiators will steal a map, but Atlanta’s gonna quickly eliminate them from the Stage 1 playoffs, meaning both L.A. teams will have a near month-long break to get their acts together (and hopefully by then, the Gladiators will be as great as their intro song).

Evening everybody! Hope you all are well! Who’s ready for more C9s?! :smirk:

DANG, RONALD! That was intense…

The last time I saw that heated of a debate, it resulted in one of my fellow students throwing a backpack at my Calculus professor…

Dafran is the only OWL team I enjoy watching

Not me. I was actually looking forward to not having to update the “Days Without a C9 At Blizzard Arena” to 0…

But based on last weekend, I’m afraid I’ll have to update the sign to read 0 by the end of the night…

Hi there,

Is it better getting tokens on the OWL website then on the twitchtv website?

I recommend trying to watch on Twitch. There you get notifications informing you of your progress.

If you do use Twitch, please make sure that your Battle.net account is linked to Twitch.

Gotta work today. Just gonna check this post when I can

Thank you! Also, will all future games be starting at 8:30 est time say for next week? Do you know why it’s starting much later? I don’t mind it at all.

There are only three matches today and tomorrow which is why they are starting at 5:30 PM PDT/8:30 PM EDT. Otherwise they will start at 4 PM PDT/7 PM EDT.

Next week there are only matches on Saturday and Sunday.

GOATS is so painfully boring

The Reign is here - Chris Puckett on Twitter

Gladiators make a surprisingly strong start.
