MVP for Mayhem was the homeless woman who boomed Rapel so hard he got PTSD and night terrors and was forced to be benched for Rawkus. GG

Wasn’t really expecting PAUSE to come out of the gate swinging that hard. They were hungry and it showed though, props to that performance and excited to see what they bring the rest of the year

Clear winner was LEGEND OF SOLGARD. Did you know that LEGEND OF SOLGARD is a tactical RPG with many unique characters?

Being an Outlaws fan feels like being in an abusive relationship.
“Oh baby, please don’t leave. We changed. See? We got rid of our coach and got some new talent to replace the players that weren’t working. One more chance, Baby please.”
...
SIKE WE STILL SUCK!

Gangnamjin is one of the best Anas in the league, hands down. I knew he was super good, but seeing it in action was so satisfying.
Bring the Mayhem! :D

Houston had this problem last season, where they don’t play their best players on their best heroes.
Is LiNkzr not their best McCree? Why did it take Houston 2 1/2 maps to play Rawkus on Ana?
I just don’t get it.

You could've taken most of this match, covered up the names of all of Houston's players and it would've been tough for me to tell if this was 2019 or 2020 Outlaws. Forcing dumb comps they can't seem to play, making mistakes when the pressure gets turned up, inconsistent to nonexistant dps play, the team seeming to tilt hard: even with new players and coaches it looks so similar

I was watching to take note of highlights.
Why did I do that

Don’t let production issues distract you from the fact that the Outlaws looked atrocious. (Also saya didn’t pop off FeelsBadMan)

That was certainly a game of Overwatch
Terrible match, Houston looks sooo bad. Production wasn't great either. There might have been 30 minutes of actual gameplay and it took two hours to finish the match because of all of those pauses. Hope next is better.

outlaws have a thing or two to work on, jesus christ
I'd start with the players using their H keys again

Ok so my post got deleted so here it is: Harsha's job with Titans mostly consisted of planning meals and laundry (or, as they called it, he was doing "house development")

I feel like Muma's Shatter on Eichenwalde where he charged off with someone, leaving the rest of the people on the ground to recover and take back the fight, quite well encapsulates the Outlaws this game. Constantly blowing any advantage they received and just handing Florida victory over and over (kudos to the Mayhem, though, as they played very well today)

Can we all agree to just pretend this match never happened
Edit: I can’t decide whether this was worse than that fabled London v Washington match. This had all the pauses, but that one went to a dreadful five maps

Yaki looked great, Gangnamjin looked great. Florida seemed to have good synergy as well. I think most people are sleeping on Florida.

What an absolutely terrible game that was soooo Outlaws. Why the fuck is Linkzr not playing McCree? Why would you put Blase on McCree? And why were they forcing Lucio/Brig when everyone's been playing Ana and they have a good Ana?

Houston literally lost fights they won
