quake players masterrace

lol the asian dude commentator voice sounds like rapha's

game looks so messy tho, it's hard to follow the action, lot of spam spam and "random" 6v6 melees

the key is to coordinate the ultimates and/or use them at the right time. That's imho the main part of the teamplay.

but like i said, it's a lot about spamming and shooting everything, looks even more messy than 4v4 CA lol

ah, and genji is op imho

shit game :D

but still, go

jesus ow spectacting is impossible wtf. only good to hear diddy k's sweet voice.

Almost hype!

Like I've mentioned in the beginning of all the OW hype, it's not fun to watch and regardless of who the casters are it's going to be an incredibly difficult task keeping people entertained over the long run, however when you're playing the game it's a lot more fun.

why ppl play that boring camp-shit? even worse than cs
hype hype hype

Impossible to spectate.

This is like CTF with follow killer, ruins everything. When you spectate a single player for a while, like when I am watching Cooller or Fazz, it's OK to understand what is happening, but when you are constantly switching between 12 players, then it's madness. The casters will need to learn to give limited time to certain players in the teams, otherwise it's difficult to follow the game.

This is also a problem of 6 player format, I think the gamewould have been more comprehensible and better with 5 players.

I tried to watch have to admit I have no clue about what's going on.

what are the weapons, how many weapons are there?

do I have to remember all the player types and their abilities? how many types are there?

etc.

What a lot of people on ESR dont understand is that OW essentially is a MOBA in first-person view.

Would you watch a moba and expect to be able to follow everything without knowing all the abilities and character traits?

To be honest I think most Quakers just want OW to fail for some reason. And yes, it worked with Shootmania, but this time it wont work I think, the game really struck a chord with a big, big slice of the gamer population

Most quakers want OW to succeed, because most quakers are playing it.. :P

Most don't care if succeeds and most dont play it. Most of quake pro scene plays it, but most of quakers dont

Yep, you are right. I should have phrased it differently:

"Most users on ESR want OW to fail..."

Overwatch isn't a MOBA in first-person view...

well then... thank god that Ow has creeps so you get gold for better weapons and shitz. most def a MOBA

The people who play OW from the QL community in AUS are either playing it competitively in tournaments or not at all, I don't see anyone playing it for 'fun' though, including me!

rogue = winz and his little bro akm

Does he hit harder than toxic though?

so you guys hate ow, and didnt even try to play it...yet you are interested and want to watch the game and know the meta

A man can dream!

I would better play dead game that I like

watch the game you bitter cunts. it's not bad at all.

way better than spectating the 'evil gets 200$' ceremony on sundays.

as long as theyre lan matches, i agree.

i dont really care about envyus cheats and wins xxxx amount of money every week.

Evil has been choking a lot recently

I guess I would watch live big game with Quakers playing and diddy casting even though I don't know shit about the game and never played it.

hah cypher-genji did some nice kills strikes, ...fucking genji man. Almoast annyoing as tracer. ... cooler on support tho, lol? ...fu you cooler fans :PPPP Nevertheless he did his part very good.

... but nice games overall, quakemaster race idd. I guess it did help playing a game that trully is a fast-paced game.

was also confused by cooller playing support, ain't that much familiar with the game to know if that position actually requires so much skill, otherwise would be a waste having cooller playing it. anyway seems to work in their favor, reunited is a good team.

je lucio is important, aoe heal, speed boost, has ulti to counter ultis... (extra hp), pushes ppl away, like anoying genjis and tracers.... damn flys, i like to junkrat their asses, also snipers and pharahs, very next level difficult.

cooller is playing support because i guess he's team leader. And supports usually have projectile weapons (lucio, the main hero of cooller, has a plasmagun-like)

Anox did another 2:0 upset after that and then lost 1:3 in the finals. It was cool to see a bunch of people who don't know anything about quake saying "CYPHER CYPHER CYPHER" in twitch chat.

So these were qualifiers. Did they qualify?

They didn't qualify, yet. The rules are like this:

There are four qualifiers where the winner of each qualifier qualifies. Then, the 12 teams who earned the most points throughout the four qualifiers also qualify. You get points for placing, and Anox placed 2nd, so they have a headstart on points.

755 viewer hahaHAHA! Btw its unbearable to watch :D

crazy map to watch

Fast forward to August, Rematch, again in finals BO3 this time:

WOAAAAH! Thinking that its the top QuakeLive players going at it! I can't wait!

I'm totaly not gonna watch this shit!

leaving the game itself aside, how the fuck do people watch streams/vods. I tried and I felt like I had schizophrenia.

I feel the same way trying to watch dota or SC2, coz i never played them.

Yet, thousands of ppl watch that on regular basis. I agree, game is nothing special, but its quite hard to watch and understand whats going on if you didn't play at least a bit.

Also 6v6 doesn't help.

In SC2 at least there are casters that can say "awww shit, this build against that build is gonna get rekt". Then you watch two unit ballz fight each other - simple.
Overwatch is not as bad as WoW arena, but it's pretty bad.

Even you play it, you can undenstand what happens but still schizophrenic pov switches

cg_guny -50
r_picmip 8
cg_fov 120
Fullbright player models

Before those are executed I'm not watching this.

Amen to that

why is cooller the best?

because of his polish roots
