S9mm saying the n word has almost singlehandedly led to the complete downfall of any org investment in North American Overwatch esports.
What a wild butterfly effect.
Avoid as Teammate will be reworked in

The avoid list will allow up to 10 players with the ability to pin players long-term; new avoided players will replace the oldest unpinned players on your list.
These changes aren't expected until Season 12 at the earliest.
I will be creating an overwatch brainrot tier list of players/staff/members of the community. Interact with this tweet if you wish to be included on the list.
Take:
The reason so many people’s favourite metas are goats or ball comps is because those are the metas where they understood the meta the most and actually learned to master a comp because they had the most time to play it. Goats was meta for 1.5yrs, ball was meta for ~1yr (?)
To everyone bashing on this person for coming out about this:
What Getamazed did wasn’t illegal, but he’s still a piece of shit for it and imo deserves to be called out.
We need to promote better behaviour in this community and in general. Have some fucking empathy. (1/3)
These types of comments really piss me off. The whole point of the Pro Am is to prove to fans and teams that the best of contenders can compete with a lot of OWL.
We saw 2 different T2 teams win vs OWL teams, and we will see more.
Put some respect on the title of contenders.
Here’s the list of LFT players and staff that I’ve been working on:
The second tab on this sheet is for players who asked to be on the list but either a) I’m not familiar with them or b) are lower level players.
Enjoy, and DM me if you have any questions
Adding on to this, even if it is your religion, you should still practice tolerance. You can’t force your beliefs onto others, and you should follow the golden rule of “if you have nothing nice to say, don’t speak at all”. Keep your discriminatory beliefs to yourself.
saying "it's my religion" isn't the ironclad defense a lot of these mfs think it is. you don't get to be an unwashed asshole and refer back to your made up set of rules like it clears you of all wrongdoing. if ur a piece of shit, the rest of the world doesn't owe you tolerance.
T2 players should either help to develop T3 talent or not complain about the lack of good support players. Nobody else is going to develop talent, and most T2 coaches suck. That being said, it’s also on T3 players to work on themselves and improve on their own. 🧵
When T2 is pancaking about not enough Support players I think it may be time to pick up T3 Supports and develop them stop being so damn selective these days this ain’t 2020.
Overwatch League dropped its 2023 Roster Construction Rules. It includes:
- Contract key dates
- Increase of League min. salary to adjust for inflation
- The death of rolling 30 days (HUGE!)
Word of advice to any LFT players out there, esp those looking to break into T3:
Keep your LFT post relatively short. You don’t need to include every single tournament finish, nor do you need to put every quality you have like you would on a resume (1/3)

. It was my decision to leave, been with them for ages and felt it was time for a change. Incredibly thankful to them for giving me my first T2 opportunity, it’s been a pleasure to work with all the wonderful ppl there. Wish them nothing but the best
Age absolutely does matter:
1. Some top staff won’t even consider older players when trialing for teams, ie Gunba with Florida
2. As you get older, you tend to have less time to get good at video games because you have responsibilities in life, like job, rent, family, etc (1/4)
Your age doesn't play a big role in your lack of accomplishment in video games.
I've worked with players in their 50's and 60's, both men and women, who reached the top 1% starting from below average.

@danteh
it was just the carpe/fury/jjonak three stack that terrified everyone. honestly i dont think many ppl will care. at this point most players dont give much of a shit abt their sr and would rather have fun games than get bored soloing
People always complain about how the quality of contenders rosters has gone down over the years. Regardless of that, if there’s one thing that’s gotten better over the years it’s all the roster reveals and graphics stuff.

Grooming doesn’t necessarily refer to grooming a minor. Grooming usually involves a large age difference but is also about an abuse of a power dynamic. It ain’t illegal but this person was, from their story, manipulated and coaxed into doing something they didn’t feel ok with 2/3
I have NEVER seen a more pathetic group of people.
Scrimming with my collegiate team and the other team started changing settings after getting rolled. Took us an hour and a half to realize and they were being toxic too... I don't get mad easily but holy f
@Gurululz
If ur going to pursue a career in Esports, at least finish high school. In the event that you don’t find success, which is very likely, you need some kind of backup plan. You also have to consider that even someone of Guru’s age is a grandpa by Esports standards.

@KenobiCasts
are the best casting duo in Overwatch and it isn’t particularly close. Never have I seen two casters consistently enhance the viewing experience of every single game they cast while painting amazing narratives for players and teams. Thank you <3
At the very least if you want to pass judgment on this person’s story, keep it to yourself. Assuming everything said is true, there’s no reason to attack a victim of abuse and manipulation. In publicly doing so, you look like the asshole and you’re just being hurtful. 3/3
@MaeveOW
You can counter swap OTP/cheese shit, there’s no shame in counter swapping and trying to outmechanic as long as u execute. Doesn’t matter how you play if you get the win in the end, to an extent

My old teammate quit ow back in like august or September and since then his skin cleared up, his hair looks better and he’s had 2 girlfriends and has been enjoying other games.
@beepiiii
The game plays pretty fast, the only time it feels slow is when ppl stagger or when you have to walk back 200m from spawn without speed/movement cooldowns.
And even then it’s still faster than almost any other competitive game on the market imo
