Houston Outlaws vs. San Francisco Shock - FINAL

This was the best match of the weekend, and a perfect ending match for the weekend.
Sublime play, and hope this will give Outlaws the momentum to go much further.

Not unsportmanslike, but that of a person who’s life is about Overwatch. Remember Korea culture is far more ingrained in Esports and these guys are devestated when they lose a tight match like this.

It is moments like this that we all live for, and I mean that in a very positive way.

Striker will come back stronger.

What a game. I knew that the outlaws are a insane team right now. Their roster has nearly no weaknesses. GG.

Youtube chat is a whole other level of toxicity

HOUSTON OUTLAWS WINS!


The Houston Outlaws surprise everyone with 2 extremely close wins this week, including a 6-map win over the 2-time defending champs! Whether the Outlaws can carry this momentum into next week remains to be seen, but I am sure there is gonna be a big party in Houston (COVID? Who cares?), the inhabitants had better leave town. As for the Shock, it is major disappointment, and some hard questions are going to need to be answered by the Shock coaching staff over the next couple weeks as they prepare for 2 more matches in Week 3.

However, one cannot question that this match was by far THE MATCH OF THE WEEK, and I expect that we’ll be hearing talk about this for the rest of the May Melee Tournament. I think I actually might buy the VOD for this match and watch it over and over and over again.

They brought up the tweet, and the 5:28 on Brig :joy:

I mean it’s on par with Twitch so :man_shrugging:

All people do there is spamming anyways - no matter if Twitch or YT :woman_shrugging:

I always hide the chat because it is annoying af.

I would point out that having these match discussion threads is intended as a more civilized discussion versus the spam of the chat feed.


Next match is up everyone:

Pretzels and spinach dip. :pretzel:

Late response…but the announcers were talking about it after map 4…it was apparantly a new change for this season

At least twitch has fun emoji’s though, YT is so bland.

Wait WHAT??

The Shock was defeated???

This is the new “Crusty Rule”. It’s to combat how the Shock ignored other game modes to just win Control and Hybrid last season.

(Just watched the vod. Never been more happy to have my pred boomed)

Ok joined the forum one, but I think I registered with the wrong account, was meant to be my main… rip lol. But it’s all just a bit of fun I guess not really interested in the statue lol as it’s not Moira hehehe.
