I wish I shared your certainty because Stats certainly hasn't given us any reason to believe in him today.

I hate being that guy but lots of koreans play like shit on the first day due to jetlag.

just a bad day, he'll be fine by sunday. Stats literally can beat anyone, he just needs to remember that and focus.

I certainly hope so but today's performance was really really bad and special showed great play today. If by some off-chance he has to play TY he is the underdog, his style just really doesn't suit him.

Is there region locking in the Overwatch League?

Is the number of Korean players that can play for a NA team limited?

On average TY seems to know how to beat Stats, but MajOr? Rematch curse gonna get him good I think (I hope).

Was it worse than that LoL team Siren reveal?

did that one look like an ugandan powerpoint?

Link please.


I haven't followed it closely but the whole Overwatch League story is so bizzarre it almost sounds like a scam

I'm not convinced it isn't a money laundering scheme. $20 million for a brand new league with no revenue sharing is absurd.


That's not how money laundering works at all. This is 100% legit just terrible investment from people who looks at two factors (a) the growth potential of esports, (b) the playersize of Overwatch. And then you add the potential for regional fans on top of that.

They don't understand that not all games are great to watch and Overwatch has absolutely no growth potential.

If you are a blizzard employee and wants to make a presentation to investors who doesn't know that much about esports, it's really easy to manipulate facts and data and make it seem like a better investment case it is.

(btw revenue share will come from 2021 IIRC correctly).

4 years is an eternity in gaming time. 4 years ago CS:GO was dead in the water and the battle royale genre didn't even exist. Who knows if the league will even exist in 4 years.


True too some extent, but the longevity of games is gradually increasing and investors doesn't really seem to understand how big the uncertainty is when it comes to the future playerbase of games. The risk is definitely enourmous.

LOL seems to maintain a pretty solid playerbase year after year. I wouldn't be surprised to it still having similar numbers in 2021.

When it comes to overwatch, the playerbase is already dwindling. There was this recent reddit thread on comp/overwatch and the discussion was about how the game was doing in their country. And basically all users from all countries stated that the game had declined alot from where it was 1 year ago.

And it does make sense because if you look at a game like OW... doesn't really that much depth. Not that much diversity. And I've seen alot of players make similar remarks about the game, yet never heard anyone say that about dota/lol/csgo.

Hence yes in the context of OW, the game has no future. It will only decline in popularity over time. However, in the future esports games could last 10-20 years.
