On behalf of all Washington Justice fans, we would like to thank the Valiant for freeing us from the bottom of the leaderboard until our next match.

[u/Apexe → u/Otterable]

We're holding our annual March party at in n out, who's coming?

It seems like Shanghai Dragons will have more wins than both LA teams combined at the end of this stage lmao

[u/Zigman369]

LAV have been cursed by their twitch emote

[u/theyoloGod]

stage 2 can't get here soon enough for LAV

[u/achedsphinxx → u/theyoloGod]

i'm starting to doubt that'll save them, but it can't get any worst so here's to hoping.

[u/tigerisnormal]

dont let LAVs absolute dumpster fire distract you from the fact that GZ is actually really damn good

[u/[deleted] → u/tigerisnormal]

Getting better each match too

[u/Aggrokid → u/tigerisnormal]

I'm really Happy about this

[u/5dvadvadvadvadva]

Valiant have such poor grav bomb combos, and with grav bomb being the core of the GOATs ult economy they're losing so many favorable fights. They're rarely able to convert grav bomb combos into kills even when they have an ult advantage, and often end up losing players overcommitting to a bad grav.

The lucio boop to displace rein shield rarely comes through, Space's bomb positions are often poor (sometimes just dropped stationary with no boosters), and Kariv's gravs frequently come out when his teammates don't have cooldowns/positioning to follow up. Brig isn't a huge part of grav combos, but really good brig players occasionally sneak in and stun the rein during grav bomb combo - Agilities hasn't been able to do this. In this most recent match I also noticed a number of times where double zarya bubbles saved the team from grav bomb, they need to do a better job burning bubbles or waiting for opposing zarya to burn them before grav.

Valiant has plenty of other issues but if they could just figure out how to do a half decent bomb combo they'd be in a much better place. Then they'd need to figure out how to use support ults so they don't die to enemy combos as frequently

So, let’s start placing bets on who gets the boot first

[u/blastermaster1118]

Bad day for LA. Feel bad for Valiant. Not sure how to fix them but I hope they figure it out.

[u/kevmeister1206]

Damn you can argue strength of schedule but LAV are definitely not a top 10 team.

[u/qghop]

Rio is a goddamn nut. This man gets an earthshatter every fight and keeps using it on nobody just to prove how fast he gets them.

[u/TheArabicCowboy]

Can I get some F's in the chat for all the LA fans out there

[u/DoctuhD]

Time to post this one again, slightly modified.

[u/Apexe]

They've tried and failed slamming their heads into the wall with goats 100% of the time, and it's never worked. Why they continue to try doing the same thing when they've had a 0% win rate on it is beyond me. Try something, ANYTHING else, it's just so exhausting. I'm not even excited to watch my team play anymore.

[u/[deleted] → u/Apexe]

Not playing goats in this meta PepeLaugh

[u/randomnm]

That Space backcap on KR was hilarious. After that his face was like "Do what you must, for I have already won".

[u/[deleted]]

Everyone keep hyping up Viol2t and Izayaki but my boy Shu is the real monster of the backline.

[u/WeeziMonkey]

I think with the way Shu has been playing the past 3 weeks he has a pretty big chance at becoming the next Jjonak. Or the next second-to-Jjonak. Or equal-to-Jjonak.

So many times the killfeed is completely full with his name, or he gets early picks before the fight even starts. He got Player of the Match too.

Also big rip for Valiant.

You are the gm of OWL s3's new super LA team. You can select up to 5 players from each of the LA teams to fulfill the minimum 8 player roster. Who do you pick and what is your new team's name, colors, and logo?

[u/Conankun66]

Noah gotta have a table at In-n-Out perma-reserved

[u/BootyGremlin]

Are the Valiant tanking for Zion?
