Norway needs a solid 4-0 and then hope USA get 0-4’d versus Canada to have any chance to advance to BlizzCon.

3

so theres no chance for that :smiley:

4

why Jake is not in team US?

5

An 0-3 for Canada would also be fine if Norway can get the sweep as well I believe. In that scenario:

Canada = 5-0 (19-0-1, +19)
Norway = 3-2 (12-9-0, +3)
USA = 3-2 (11-8-1, +3)

Real talk, he’s very smart, but a bunch of his best heroes aren’t meta right now, and Hydration is better at a bunch of heroes that are meta.

Unlike last year this year all players were selected by the coaches who are chosen for each World Cup team. For the USA team, there was an extensive trial for various OverWatch league in OverWatch Contender members competed for the eight coveted slots.

just like mine :smiley:
i should be in OW WC :smiley: hehe

I would note World Cup team selections took place during the 1.24 to 1.25 patches. At the time Jake’s Heroes were actually quite good.
