MoonMoon is a streamer thanks to seagull, they have always played together since the Beta days.

Also because he is insanely entertaining and has a great stream personality/has always interacted a lot with his chat. I've been sub'd to him basically since he got his button.

I didn't say it to downplay him, just to show they are close for a while now.
I like MOONMOON as well, how come he stopped playing with the fat man and lassiz?
I think I've seen all the Seagull streams since the beginnning of OW, it's insane.
I still remember when they met, good times. Seagull was hyping him up and hosting him all the time, because he wanted more streamers in the Overwatch community, even though he knew it meant reducing his viewer count.
Now both seagull and moonmoon are incredible streamers. Really happy how the community for this game turned out.
There are dozens of us. Queue the epic intro.
will check out for sure after work, thanks!
So this is the first season where I play Overwatch in comp and even play it regularly. Have had it since beta and even reviewed it back then, but not until now have I really gotten hooked.
So finished my placements matches last night and got placed in Silver. I am quiet happy with that, gives me plenty of room to climb, and I do need to improve my aim alot.
One thing that annoys me though, when I get into a game I start to read and listen and watch every guide around, and this is so frustrating when even simple things like your team not picking any mobile heroes when on attack on Hanamura or things like that.
But man do I love the game, and I honestly dont get angry when someone completely schools me, I just try to learn from what they do good. I have met some really great Pharah players the last few days.

because 2-stacking gets you the best queue results (at high levels especially). he'll stack with either of them if they're on alone but most of the time all 3 are streaming.
also at a few points during the season tim's been more than 500 points away from moon's SR
Just started really watching the twitch streams of overwatch like 3 days ago right before the 6 stack thing, mainly moon moon and I can see why he is so successful. Dudes personality st least on stream is too hard to honestly hate and it seems like his fan base really looks up to him as a big brother. Alot of respect for dude.
That 6 stack stream was good tho. I like how nonchalant the group up was in terms of putting it together.

You know, I actually have no idea why he stopped playing with Tim and Lassiz. I wasn't watching much Twitch around the time that all happened..I think, at least initially, there might've been too big of an SR disparity between him and Tim so they couldn't group?
I'd love to hear it if anyone knows anything beyond that, though. He also had a period of queueing with Kaboomz..and I think he said he stopped queueing with him because he whined too much (I remember him saying this during some stream on Hollywood defense).
Nowadays he seems to group a lot with stan901.

I miss Shayed and the early genji days, when we were all watching seagull learning genji and seeing the first pharah ult deflect ever.
PogChamps for days.
All I know is why seagull stopped playing with them, but now things have gone full circle and I'm kind of confused.

He 3 stacks with seagull too though.

You should check out Calvin too, dude is great and fun.
he's ridiculously likable. i particularly like how he makes a point of paying everyone who works with him (artists, his video editor, etc) when a lot of people in his position try to get stuff for free, and how good he is about no tolerance for racism etc in chat and donation messages. it's a refreshingly positive stream.
grouping with more than 1 other person in top 500 tends to unbalance team SR quite a bit. the team with the high level 3 stack will get 3 filler masters or even diamonds while the other team will get 6 GMs, especially during times when there's not as many people queuing.
Ah yes, the legendary "SavageDab69".

Opposite for me. If moon is on, nobody else matters.
If not, then, in this order:
aimbotcalvin
a_seagull
pokelawls
lassiz
harbleu
surefour
iddqdow
grimrealityow
b1rd_tv
Absolutely never:
KOREA10
TimTheTatMan
What reason was that?
Makes sense. I just never saw moon explain this on stream when asked.
Hm, not sure how much of GAF would find moon totally agreeable. I think he's wonderful and love his stream above all else, he basically got me into watching Twitch, but he's far from as politically correct as GAF likes to be.
Stallion Dan

Jesus, 3 guys on my team picked Rein, Ana and Lucio, no healing and Rein wasn't using shield. Gotta be trolls right?
Moon said 3 queue is fucked and he wanted Lassiz to play with Tim because he wanted Lass to help carry tim so Tim wouldn't get burnt out and stop playing the game.

MOONMOON trolling in comp and throwing often for the lulz IIRC.
Feels like it. Really hope blizz can hit down hard on that bs
Are there any OW pros over 30?
KOREA is fucking hilarious. I love his stream.
he explained it about 100 times then got tired of repeating himself and just started inventing ridiculous excuses when people asked.
i mean he clearly doesn't give a fuck about specific political causes but is very expressly against any kind of hate speech, trump supporters, and the like. and i've always gotten the sense that it's the result of his personal feelings more than just not wanting to get his channel banned or anything.
finalflame
Member
Yah, I figured this is why he stopped explaining. By the time I started watching him again he was just telling people Tim ate his god, so I never got the full story from the horse's mouth.
Correct, and I like that he keeps political BS off his stream, and he does very expressly have a zero tolerance policy for hate speech and the like, but he does things like call stuff "retarded" and pretty openly talk about how some of Twitch's girl streamers clearly sexualize their stream for gain, for example. Oh, and his open hate for anime and weebs.

How can you tell if someone is smurf?
Just basing it on how good they are relative to the number of matches played?
Newtype-001
Member
no idea but i doubt it
everyone seems 25 and under
he's trying to stop saying "retarded" which is why you'll hear him say someone is being "wumbledoof" sometimes. i get that it's a habit and those can be hard to break but i think he's trying.
also lots of girls do sell sex on twitch (i don't personally see anything wrong with it and i think he's mostly just making fun of their extremely thirsty guy fans) and anime does suck.

I'm with you on pretty much all of the above. But I think GAF as a unit tends to lean a bit more radically left/intolerant on some of those things, is all. I love moon for pretty much all his qualities/shortcomings.
Edit: Also, what's up with ManOfSnow? Is he just constantly viewbotting? I find him insufferable.
Edit2: except I like anime.
btw the guy who made the pharah videos anne linked is streaming right now
never watched before so sorry if something insane happens
https://www.twitch.tv/valkia
wait i think he may be ending >_>

Yah, I liked the stream when he had mediashare on and people could troll with Renai Circulation basically every evening stream.
Oh, it's Valkia. Yeah, he's awesome. Runs a fun stream, really good at Pharah.
Only first heard of him because he carried Stylosa.
he has mediashare back on for the monday streams now, but he's skipping anything anime/kpop/gachi (the last one because he was warned by twitch staff that most gachi is too sexually explicit which sucks).
Stallion Dan

Yes, the skill gap is obvious, and if you look at their profile on PSN Overwatch will be the only game played most of the time.
I was cracking up at all the Gachi remixes of popular Christmas music people were bringing out for him a few months ago.

Hah yah, I've been watching when he says he'll skip any weeb stuff. No more of the good 'ol days. It's alright though as I like smooth jazz the same as he does.

You got the most important part right though when you picked Pharah.

So, I'm looking at this ESL rerun. They always let teams have more than a single hero?
It depends. If you're in a situation where you're isolated, honestly just fan whatever the hell you flashed not named Tracer. The main time you wanna flash > headshot is if you're in a team fight and the damage will come down, or if you're at a weird spot where fan won't all connect.
Chro is THE Junkrat main.
oh here was another one that had me crying: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/120508546?t=18m27s
moon + tim queued into j3sus and some guy named LETSGOCHAMP who kept screaming LET'S GO CHAMP and it sounds dumb but i couldn't stop laughing

Have you seen his games with Mickey Mouse?
Lassiz and Tim ran into that guy and Lassiz got really frustrated at Tim for encouraging him.
They figured out he was a smurf of some pro player named Reaver.

he's actually queued into a few of his games before and it always kills me
