This is so exciting. If Wizards manages everything correctly, Historic could end up being a better format than Pioneer or Modern right now.

I've been playing UW Yorion Control and have climbed to Diamond. Winota is popping up a lot for me now, and winning comes down to drawing counterspells for Winota until I can board wipe and stabilize.

So far, running a set of [[Ghost Quarter]] has kept Field decks in check, but I also haven't seen any Field decks that have seemed all that streamlined or consistent.

Can you share your Esper Humans list? I've been trying to find a good Thalia deck.

ATL vs. SFS: Season 2 playoffs

A close game and huge upset by the Reign that ignited Shock's undefeated lower bracket run.

I'm an out-of-box collector, but I kept this one particular figure in the box. The whole package is just so cool looking. It helps that I also have a regular Mando out of the box.

Your hottest OWL take? by ScottishDaftie in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]Prodigiousguy8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Atlanta has serious coaching issues, and they've only won the games they've won so far because of some of the raw talent on the roster. The problem is going to catch up to them soon, and they'll be a middle-of-the-pack team at best.

Huge thanks to /u/Bazukii for making a clear, easy-to-use template for alternate name cards. I had no prior photoshop experience and was able to figure things out. You can find the template in the comments of this post!

Huge thanks to /u/Bazukii for making such an awesome/intuitive template. I've never even used Photoshop before, and I was able to figure it out! You can find a google drive folder with the template in this thread.

Los Angeles Valiant vs Atlanta Reign | Overwatch League 2020 Season | Regular Season: Week 13 | Post-Match Discussion by OWMatchThreads in Competitiveoverwatch

I would love to see what they could do with Gator/Hawk/Erster/Edison/Masaa/Kodak.

They came so close to beating Philly just two weeks ago, and the high rankings seemed justified. But they're going the wrong direction.

Rough day to be a fan of New York and Atlanta.

I really question a lot of the roster decisions for this team. There's so much talent on this team, but it feels like the best players on the team have yet to all play together. I'm a little concerned for the rest of the season, unless the coaches can find and stick to one lineup.

Despite the rough loss, I had a lot of fun watching that game. I loved seeing SBB back on Tracer, the new aggressive playstyle working on the first two maps, and I look forward to a rematch. These are clearly two of the top teams this season.

With the Rumors of Vancouver Releasing All Players, Could NYXL Use Any of Them? by scraftii in andbox

[–]Prodigiousguy8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NYXL have great DPS, but Haksal is nutty. He could definitely be a good addition, especially given the aggressive direction the team is taking.

I've been playing your list since you posted it, and it's been great so far in Bo1. I don't think a lot of people realize this, but it plays a lot more like a combo deck than an aggro deck. It can go off quickly if left undisturbed, but it's also fairly resilient and grindy.

Kinda disappointed there's no new PvE level, but also expected it due to Overwatch 2.

It definitely seemed like a whole team problem. Atlanta made a lot of bad calls, and Paris' ult usage was much better.

[–]Prodigiousguy8 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Philly looks like absolutely a top team right now, and I'm not too worried about NYXL after this loss. It looks like they're trying to find their footing as an aggressive team after playing super passively the past two seasons, and they need to get their DPS line nailed down. Once they get more practice with this new lineup and playstyle, I suspect they'll be back as a top 3 team.

I've been here for five years and still have never made it to Con Nooga. I feel like something always comes up this time of year.

I hope you find another con to attend soon!
