What do you guys think of Baptiste so far in Stage 2 and the overall increase in hero pick diversity?
Bapiste brings something new to the table but sadly he mostly gets used in goats comps
@@hiddevansinderen830 Bunker comps*
Music titles?
Goats is dying :crab:
I'm ready for all the answers complaining about Goats
No one:
Sombra: dammit
*translocates behind you* Nothing personnel, mi amigo

Ryujehong was actual hiding behind enemy lines and was found by libero on brig and so jumped off.
I was watching his perspective. He was the only one still alive after that time fight and was like. Welp. I guess i"ll wait here because I can't escape. They'll probably never find m- Oh shit its Libero.
666th like 😈
This is what I like about eSports. Strategy is always affected by the smallest thing possible. The NYXL got butterfly effect'd by a single Sombra. Good Job Seoul. Keep up the good work
Thanks for the kind words! While a bit of a big time-investment, we definitely plan to try to make more of these int he future. 👍
Nobody:
Akshon: Munchikin
Jesk and Munchikin
This actually made me giggle a bit
I was hoping somebody would say something about it XD
surely he knows how to pronounce Munchkin right
Bothered me the whole vid 😂
More like: how NYXL failed to kill a Sombra 4 maps in a row
AusDaes - Overwatch kinda hard when she’s always running away
Maybe you shouldn't be randomly stating this without any knowledge whatsoever
Can't,because when a hero in goats meta just run away from the team to kill sombra,it can be easy for the enemy team to kill goats,second if the whole team go for sombra,it will just bring more advantages for the enemy team,third,sombra in owl actually go with the team sometimes,not just flanking,so its even harder to kill her
Last but not least,the sombra you saw in owl is far different from the sombra you saw in your comp game,the players should know how to play her properly
Their weakness is and always has been adapting to what's being thrown at them.
@@lypreila7913 tf you talking about lmao, look at the other comments and learn something
12:22 Now watch me whiff, now watch me Nenne
You're a fucking genius lmao
lmaoo
Actually underrated comment.
Nenne no
Extremely well edited, paced, and narration. The quality of your channel's content is just exemplary!
Agreed! I usually don't understand much from the original videos so I really like these.
Steven Yee yee
But they didn’t realize that at 10:31 it was only a 5 man emp not a 6 man, they didn’t fact check which was as simple as looking at the top right instead of they just went off the commentators.
Finally, some decent analysis/coverage of this game, subbed
Paladins trash
And you are to. It’s just buggy. Using that same logic overwatch is also trash cuz of its shit community. It’s even worse than the pedo filled smash community
Ngl I thought this was gonna be a "finally some good fucking food" meme reference, still true none the less
Yeah
"as anamo holds onto his sound barrier through the grav" Literally cannot press his Q button
Ross Campbell you can drop beat in gravs.
@@gavina-kk5td He was hacked
Akshon stepping up in blitz’s place
These are my favorite kinds of videos!
@@mikeburnfire same!
Well Blitz uploads really slow so they need to step it up
@@RM-56 blitz shut down
@@dexterleruez4546 Really?! Why?! They produced very high quality videos!
Overwatch players: "Please OW gods, give us an answer to this scourge that is GOATs!"
Overwatch: "...bean here all along!"
Overwatch players: "plis no sombra"
Michelle has got it right. NYXL is a great team, but let's be honest, Jjonak is borderline carry for them. At the very least, he's their best player. You cripple Jjonak and you cripple their team. Imagine how tilted he must have been getting hacked twice when he wanted to use trans, not even EMPed, but hacked. And to be entirely fair, the dominant zenyatta this game was Dynasty's, which I never thought I'd say about Jjonak.
tbh I don't think Jjonak tilted off that. Playing pro kind of requires the ability to keep a level head at all times. That said, it definitely would have been frustrating. In a way I think it might have been on Meko, because of D.Va's ability to spy check and interrupt hacks from a million miles away being potentially able to save Jjonak from that hack if he reacted quickly enough.
You really expect Jjonak, a pro Zen player, to get mad about Sombras? The second he sees a Sombra he already 100% knows that she will be out for him. Getting target hacked or EMPed as a Zen is like part of Jjonaks job. No way he would get mad.
Akshon never dies
Sombra Mains Unite! Then translocate away!
wow you're hilarious pepega
Sombra mains are worse then brig mains
Hi *Teleports away*
Aka the definition of introverts
**Translocates away**
Alright bet
Absolute most favorite match from Seoul Dynasty, hands DOWN! I was hyped throughout the entire game!
'one can see the discipline: he didn't ult until after the grav' bisch he was hacked and ulted as early as possibly
Sombra says "damn it" when her tp is destroyed/she is discorded/she is hacked, not when revealed
She also says it when she gets discorded, which reveals her
its in the video after he says that sentence
@@kendrickarabsky Bro...
they strike you for highlights so now you're uploading analysis god bless what a legend
A replay of Lunatic Hai vs LW Blue during Apex. Esca on Sombra + 2 heals. LW Blue didn't know what to do and got destroyed.
Been waiting for this one. Best esports related Overwatch channel, even though Blizzard doesn't appreciate Akshon, the owl fans do!
Thanks!
One of the best OW content developers! Love the video!
I love this video - shows me the utility and good positioning that a good sombra should have!
Great vid, I watched live and was as confusled as anyone when Nenne 'ulted' Michelle at the end. Love the analysis as always.
BTW munchkin is pronounced munch-kin, not munch-uh-kin. It is 2 syllables.
He's not entirely wrong with pronouncing it as "munch-uh-kin." It is how Koreans pronounce it due to the way the Korean language is (consonant-vowel-consonant structuring). So yeah, he was basically pronouncing it how Koreans say "Munchkin".
Must be a Canadian thing
Nenne graved him to kill him because Nenne knew he had EMP
@@finndawg7312 I know, they showed the replay live. If it worked it would have been massive, but it was not to be. #Michellecarry
Amazing video with some beautiful insight into one of the most exciting games so far this year. Keep up the awesome work!!!
I love this style of video so much more than the interviews, please plwase please do more of these!!!
What an amazing video... I loved it... It was so interesting for noobie like me ^^ Well done ! From France ;)
Bonjour homme
Thank you! This is one of the best match analysis and ow content I've ever seen!
You make the overwatch league seem like WW2
As an NYXL fan this video hurts but I’m still watching it
Great break down! As a Sombra main since launch it's so nice to no longer get complaints when I use her!
That was such a great analysis! Thank you.
These are both my fav teams so it’s great to watch this in depth.
Im sure this channel should be more popular this video helped me a lot to get into sombra and play good with her
I dont watch overwatch, but goddamn your videos just make it so interesting! Keep up the amazing work!
This is a masterful video. Do more of these plz
I love these videos keep doing them
Yes so more of these videos I really enjoy them
this channel is an absolute blessing
3:55 "They spent 45 seconds doing nothing" - Actually thats 45seconds less on the clock for the Dynasty. I dont think that was a wrong play. otherwise in the next fight they would have lost to EMP anyways and if that happens fast it maybe will take them only 35 seconds if they regroup fast and rush them. In my eyes nyxl made a good decision. But overall a great Video! But let me quote SF Shock's Super on this one. "They chose Sombra because they are inferior with 3-3." I know sombra could be used by both teams but in the 3-3 meta game its like admitting you cant compete with the top teams without her.
great video! music and commentary top notch!
Well done video!!
i miss Akshon highlights of the games .. were always on point and released perfectly
Got goosed bump! every single time when i watch these Pro player!
at the beggining staying on the attacking side is good by nyxl because jjonak can react on time agaisnt emp, it also stalls the payload as long as possible
I have literally never played overwatch but this was still super interesting
you should man it’s a great community and there’s barely any clickbait
@@soonftww yea id sooner die but thx
great content & narration
I appreciate the breakdown.
yes I love these videos! They’re back!
With more to come!
'They show their trademark efficiency by holding onto his sound barrier' he was hacked he couldn't lmao
This Is heart wrenching to watch again 😭😭😭😭
Sombra is truly extraordinary, this is why I tell people who I hack, when I emp so they can combo it, so it can do a cleanup. So awesome.
I think that Nenne played an amazing set, although it was risky the grav would’ve won the game for them so it’s 50 50.
No
He just explained why they wouldn't win the fight even if he got the sombra due to the support ults Seoul already had
@@bhanuvardhan yeh but the chances would atleast be higher if it worked... the fact that he failed the grav only guaranteed their defeat but if he didnt fail the chances of winning coulda been higher no doubt
john sambilad I agree with both of these comments
Nenne played poorly. No one can botch a grav worse than he can, especially for a professional level player. Replace Nenne with Geguri and you got yourself an A-list team again.
AMAZING VIDEO!!!!
Finally another behind the akshon :D
more video like this plz!!!
Really unique to see how goats variations can adapt and counter one another. Unrelated note, I'm curious to know if any pros are going to try adapting Baptiste into a new goats variant.
Sombra has always been good, glad she's being used more
The dynasty has to be my favourite team because if they didn't try to counter GOATS the meta would probably be GOATS but just with Reaper and Mei
Finally, more analysis
*This 👏🏻 is 👏🏻 why 👏🏻 you 👏🏻 main 👏🏻 Sombra👏🏻*
I mean, I have alot of respect for Sombra mains. But me being a flex, I cannot play her. With Sombra, there is no middle ground; you're either really good or absolute garbage. I tried a few weeks ago in qp, but realized I wasn't contributing much, and immediately switched to Soldier.
@@ThatLaloBoy im a sombra main it took some time for me to get really good with her. Now I play her the best out of the rest of my mains
Or not... because she is extremely situational and requires a lot of communication and coordination to play, and this is comp we are talking about...
@Lexi it’s just that you don’t know how to play her because you she can easily carry her team only using her hack, I tried it before and succeeded. It’s all about the player because she is a hard character to play but it has nothing to do with coordination or the situation
Sebastian Meraz how can you tell me what i dont know how to play? Do you play with me? No, i didnt think so. I do play sombra, and if you do, you should know that she is not always a good pick and running sombra into many comps contributes less than just going dps or off tank. As for communication, unless you have a good team that knows when to follow up without being told to, yes, communication is a necessity.
I like when you speed up the gameplay in Rialto it looks like little bugs jumping around and fighting😂
Whats nice here is seoul took the current meta and made a slight ajustment and came out super strong in the end and i think thats a good thing because one of the things i hate about League fights are the same characters on both teams so you dont have diversity in how the teams fight, its all the same every match. I love the fact that a character who many consider weak or useless makes such an impact in pro-play. Good job Dynasty!
What’s the website called where you have a top down view of all the maps and hero tokens you can place in positions? He used it at 2:46
Glad to see sombra getting some love in league
I love how sombra is one of the most usefull heros in the game but she is one of the least picked heros
She’s difficult and very situational hero imo, no one can just pick her she takes skill to play at a higher level
I feel like she's over-hyped. I mean, yeah, she can be very useful in the right situation at the right time, but most of the match, she's basically underpowered. But she's always the hero that's based around unrealized potential. That time everything goes right, Sombra looks amazing, but there's a reason that vanilla GOATs is still the most popular and most successful team comp.
She is useful in some situations.
@@taragnor I'm new to Overwatch and sort of found myself fumbling around trying to find a hero that suited me. Sombra seemed to be a perfect match because she's a very tactical DPS character, I do completely agree with what you're saying though. When the timing is right and you can get a 5/6 player EMP with your team at close quarters, you look incredible, but you also get a lot of games where you're just hacking health packs and nobody is taking advantage of when you're hacking the other team's Tanks. I know things change depending on what level you're playing at but I feel like that feeling with Sombra still probably replies regardless of how good you are. Whether or not you look good depends pretty heavily on whether your team takes advantage of the mismatches you make by hacking & preventing abilities and Ults with EMPs.
@@mattnorris7124 I find that in solo queue, hacking the supports are more effective bc it's easier to kill them. If your team follows up though, a tank hack is also good.
Im not very into OWL but starting to knew few pro players. And seeing this footage, is amazing. Especially how Jjonak always manage to read Sombra's move, dodge it n save his teammate as best as possible. But sadly not enough to carry the game to win. Still, awesome video and match tho.
Phenomenal video.
This is some quality content
If u notice on nyxl last attack anamo got killed a split second b4 transcendence was used so maybe if he doesn't die they might have won but it's a big if
I love these videos
I will never forget that grav.
for info! EMP disables all abilities as well as passives that require the press of a button (e.g wall riding and wall climbing but does not include (for example) sombra's opportunist, or rein's knock-back resistance.) it also disables all shields (the blue part of your health-bar) so zen is reduced to 50hp and zarya to 200hp. it destroys all tank and brig shields to 0hp HOWEVER if the tank/berig drops shield before emp (it is not active, like rein dropping shield - this obviously does not work for winston or orisa as their shields are completely external to their own will aside from placement - (sigma can also recall his shield) then the remaining hp left on the shield stays, the ability to use it is taken away.
i wish my games were this cool and fun
That kind of content make want to play more
This is why Dynasty will always be my favorite team.
dynasty and shock easily had the best new pickups this season by far.
I saw the title and said out loud “HOLY SHIT”
Hanzo/widowmaker/headcount for sombra...Also count 3 seconds when half fighting and then back up and look for sombra
Did any one else get a full length tekken match ad?(it was a pretty good btw)
If nenne hits that grav that would be one of the best plays last season
Glad to see one team actually think to counter a group comp.
It wasn't just Nenne, Anamo gets picked at the break of the fight chasing after RJH and so he cannot trail Jjonak with a beat.
NYXL is probably my fav team ngl.
WE MISS YOU
the fact that this video exists makes me think that people still don't know that Sombra is really good
4:33 Jayne had to be told by sometime to rewind and watch the clip of that
big brain plays
Pro-tip if you listen to the casters and desk analysts pronounce the players' names they usually get it right. Most of the owl staff have ties with the players and team faculties, so they make it their job to get as much right as they can. The only exception I've found is guxue which apparently you need to be a chinese speaker to pronounce.
enicholas frd, they pronounce it: F R D when its fried
I regret getting the dynasty rein skin instead of the Dallas fuel one :(
I fully expected NYXL to lose to any teams in the playoffs, because that is their legacy as LW Blue.
Honestly Nenne has eyes of a hunter....Really wanted to see them go against Vancouver.
Now we all gotta wait hmmmmmmm
Sombra Becomes the biggest Target After she EMP's
It's ways these two teams that everyone analysis
Jesk and Munchykin are my fav players
i find it insane how a single player/charecter can change a whole entire fight/game its crazy
New York had a bright future, but you know what they say. Apagando Las Luces.
Bruh Jjonak is doing some high IQ tactics
If you are trying to prevent getting EMP'd at the worst time, you must hunt the Sombra. If you assume the Sombra doesn't have full ult charge, but she just barely gets it in time, and you blitz her team, EMP will counter initiate, and you will lose the fight just as bad if not worst, had Sombra initiated. The issue is that there is only one hero who can hunt Sombra, and that's Hanzo, then pairing hanzo with Zen gives a 3 sec discord tag before losing LOS (invisible/behind cover) to compensate for the downtime of Sonic arrow, especially if it doesn't reveal. You might ask, if Sombra is charging ult, then you can see her, so why go through all the work to get detection? Because she gets in safe position to charge ult unless you can make it clear to her that no place is safe, and that she can run but not hide. Also, Hanzo and Zen do not have to use too much resources to keep her revealed, because Sonic arrow has no purpose in revealing the rest of the enemy team (they are not trying to hide), and Zen's discord has no CD, and can easily be applied right back onto the imminent threats. Because if Sombra tries to do dmg while discorded and/or revealed, she will probably die as she peeks cover, or just die in the open because of the dmg amp. If Sombra has to use translocate earlier than she wants, she is spending more time outside of the fight than in it. The only way she can get charge safely in that manner, is to stick next to her teammates, and be protected, but then the element of surprise is gone, and she has shield in the way of her ult charge. However, like most solutions, this would probably just be addressed by switching Sombra out, but because Zen is a key component in the meta, it doesn't affect Zen, only possibly the Hanzo. Hanzo though, has a natural synergy with the pieces of GOATS comp, because Rein and Zarya can set his dragons up, so having a Hanzo in a GOATS variant just to deter Sombra isn't too much to ask for I think. If you want to completely avoid a team more dedicated to Sombra, the quad 4 DPS, (although WB would be afraid of Sombra), they are too spread, and having both a Widow hack and Hanzo sonar arrow, would just be very inconvenient for Sombra, but of course the 4 DPS comp doesn't work if WB is having a bad time, which Sombra will make sure of, so you'd have to run WB with a Zarya so the she can bubble the WB to debuff hacks or at least make sure he can get out. I know Zarya works better in brawly comps, but teams will commit to try to kill a WB, so she will get charge off that, it's the personal bubble that is the question to her gaining charge.
8:13 "NYXL now display their trademark efficiency and discipline as anamo holds onto his soundbarrier through the grav, despite jecse using his own soundbarrier, waiting until just after jjonaks trans expires to activate barrier" wasn't like he was literally holding down his ult, waiting for the hack to expire. Great video tho
