They rarely have to against foreigners.

 

[Shredderi]

So why are Koreans so good at these games?

And RIP Finland. It was a very good match at least, but still, losing to Russia AND Sweden? That's pretty much a nightmare scenario as a Finn :')

[Ryo Hazuki]

Pretty good.

 

[Wonderboy91]

So is this meant to be the biggest tournament in competitive overwatch? These aren't actual teams right? Just people grouped by nationality?

Que?

Miros still in Highschool😲
Had no idea.

Yes, they come from different teams, think of it as the football world cup.

Yeah, just people grouped together based on country, pro players and a popular vote.

It's a national popularity contest. TBS has a league and OGN has a league too.

I really like that system.

My post was about having separate team leagues, instead of gimmick compos.

 

[MrPanic]

I haven't been keeping up with this. Is this the grand final?

[AHK_Hero]

[Hagi]

Reaper taking names

 

[T.O.P]

Goddamn Reaper <3

 

[Sesuadra]

[exYle]

Holy shit, this doesn't seem fair at all

 

[kayos90]

Arhan and Miro carrying SK like crazy right now.

 

[jediyoshi]

i spotted a dva for a few frames

 

[capitalCORN]

Well, that wasn't much of anything...

 

[Newtype-001]

Miro makes winston look OP.

 

[Darkness Unleashed]

SK is just too much, even for Shadowburn

 

[Woo-Fu]

Miro is wrecking them. Always on the back row or Shadowburn. Think Russia needs to swap out of genji for reaper, even with Shadowburn on the team.

 

[Skidd]

So why are Koreans so good at these games?

Pro gaming/ e-sports is a national past time in South Korea. They have institutions dedicated to e-sports afaik. It's easier to dedicate your time to a game when you have a coach, a schedule and still get paid like a traditional athlete. But because of this I think Overwatch League could be a huge thing.

Almost like asking why Finland has a good hockey team.

 

[T.O.P]

Arhan reaper's play is beautiful to watch

 

[kayos90]

WHAT THE FUCK KOREA. THAT DEFENSE

 

[T.O.P]

Jesus Christ

 

[jediyoshi]

that sk point A hold
that's rude

 

[EmCeeGramr]

Mother of shit

 

[Newtype-001]

Holy fucking shit.
Shadowburn cost them tha point a

 

[Gentleman Jack]

Straight shook, Russia is still underestimating SK.

 

[capitalCORN]

Holy shit! Squeezing blood out a stone!

 

[exYle]

This is ridiculous!

 

[Feep]

What an incredible point hold comeback.

 

[Alucrid]

arhan running back to ryujehong coming from spawn to ensure the nanoboost, so good

 

[RespectThySole]

Wow

 

[Woo-Fu]

Outclassed.

 

[kami_sama]

Goddammit, I would have let Russia take the point. Korea OP.

 

[Gentleman Jack]

You'd think more pubbers would start idolizing Miro instead of Seagull

 

[AHK_Hero]

Miro so good man, didn't think SK would take this so handily.

 

[DedValve]

Korea stomping Russia harder than the US.

Has the US been the only team to give Korea a challenge? And even then it didn't feel like that =/

 

[Sesuadra]

fuck korea is amazing.

winkyface.

 

[exYle]

WHAT IS HAPPENING

 

[kami_sama]

Fucking Korea, man.
