In a meta where there was a lot of viability too, without crazy wild cards (hog).

NYXL just didn't miss. Also you could argue that Spitfire only dipped in quality in 2018 because Birdring hurt his wrist and was out for an entire stage. Peak Spitfire is by far better than 2020 Eternal On the 2021 Dragons. I do think you put them in any era pretty much and they would smash almost any team. Not only are they all supremely talented. They are next level big brained. Not saying all other teams are dumb but in matches you could literally see them adapting. Even if they lose a map or somehow 2, they come back with the optimal solution and destroy their opponents.

Speedily is a two trick, and his second best hero is no longer going to be a DPS in OW2.

2020 Shock vs 2021 Shanghai is such a tossup, and very meta dependent. Basically any meta where Fate can play Ball will go to Shanghai, and Ball can almost always be picked. Same goes for Lip being able to play Sombra reliably. But outside of that, most comps would go to Shock, since the 2020 Shock was extremely versatile and great on a variety of comps and playstyles. Any meta where Widow/Ashe are central is a Shock win, cuz of 2020 ANS. Winston meta goes to Shock too since Smurf and Striker were the best at the time at those. Orisa also a lost cause.. Any meta where Rein or Hog is involved would be self-explanatory. And Rascal was dangerous on Mei, so any meta where one might see her goes to Shock too. People sometimes either forget or underestimate just how strong the Shock squad was in 2020. Almost everyone was considered the best, or runner-up for being the best at their role. Personally, my money on Shock

@@baseebird ya but overwatch is a team based game. The strategies and how ppl fundamentally play the game now is way different than in the inaugural season. It was more individualistic and the team aspect of the game now has evolved so much

2020 fusion over 2018 nyxl is EGREGIOUS, I know everyone was better in 2020 than 2018, but NYXL won HALF the stage titles possible to win in season 1, Fusion won ZERO, whilst playing all those tournaments against only half the league (cos of the region divide). God help us all.

I remember there was a screen shot on Reddit of all the comps played by the Dragons in the 2021 Grand Finals. They played nearly every comp imaginable. The Shock are my go-to team, but the 2021 Dragons nudge slightly above them imo

If 5v5 and playing tank in that environment is so much fun and fresh as Blizzard tries to tell us, then there is no way Super would have quitted. And that's what really worries me. Also I think that placing Dragons 2021 that high is silly. I even would go so far that both SF lineups beat that. For me 2021 was somehow a rigged season anyways... we more or less started with sombra echo ball and we ended there. That was the only season where it felt like Blizzard did not tried to change the meta at all. There is even a funny statement from Super on that where he said they want Dragons to win by balancing that way. (around the time where they nerf/buffed ball) But anyway gave us a nice Echo skin.

Probably because 4 years of 8 hour scrims followed by 6 hours streams 5 or 6 days out of the week during the regular season as not only the captain of your team but also the face of the league eventually mentally burns you out far beyond any point where even the greatest game to ever be made can fully repair your mental health to the point where you can give competing your 1000% effort once again. You don't have to be an expert on mental health to grasp that concept.

There's a Huge problem with the "In the GOATS Meta argument". That era continued until Stage 3 2019, and by then, it was countered by the SHD with Triple DPS. So in actuality, the best team, at the End of the GOATS era...was actually the 2019 Shanghai Dragons, who beat Every team that used GOATS....by playing Triple DPS.

Almost every player believes that given not much time the shanghai comp would be countered, and shock would again dominate. Also teams knew 2/2/2 was coming and were practicing goats less, whereas shanghai practicing DPS for their comp wasn't an issue.

@@adamcorrigan8588 and that’s fine. That’s how new metas are born. GOATS and Triple Tank metas were designed to counter dive comps. And Both times in OW history, it was triple DPS that countered these comps. It always took time because of the high difficulty floor and ceiling needed to execute triple dps. Also, people had Just started getting used to Sombra as a counter to Goats as well. Not to mention that lip was redefining how to use Sombra as a hyper aggressive flanker/assassin. Goats wouldn’t survive today because of how dangerous the combination of Echo/Tracer and Sombra would be against that comp.

@@adamcorrigan8588 um...Sigma wasn't the crucial piece to Goats....Brigitte was. And she was repeatedly nerfed until she no longer had the rapid healing and aoe restoration and SHIELD application she used to. By the end of Stage 3 2019, Brigitte's aoe healing was enough to counter the spread damage of triple DPS. Adding Sigma into the mix wouldn't solve the Sombra/Echo problem either. The thing about GOATS was its ease of use, i.e. its low skill floor. But Triple DPS had a high skill Ceiling. It's the same reason why Atlanta Reign, despite 1 tricking Brawl, went to the Grand Finals in 2021, yet lost to Shanghai Dragons. The best 2 teams at that time were Dallas and SHD, and Dallas were BETTER at Brawl than even Atlanta. The problem was that Dallas wanted to try practicing Ball comps, which had a high ceiling than Brawl did, but also a higher floor as well. Atlanta beat Dallas with the 'easier' comp to use, but ultimately lost to Shanghai, since SHD used the comp with the highest Ceiling.

i dont blame any players for retiring. retiring is the best for everyone, im kind of surprised space didnt retire to, but i think space is going to be like super in season 4 (grinding the game competitively and during his off time grow his stream more and more, hes not far behind super). i still feel for contenders players the most, but the current players have this season... i really dont see OWL continuing for another season, OWL has to pop off, people have to watch it (not just those hardcore OWL fans) but they have to bring other viewers into it and stay. i dont think that OWL is going to get new viewers and especially retain those viewers for the season.
