Episode 160: Sorry For Dropping That Bomb

The Defiant are off to Hawaii, the Titans are off on vacation, and Jordan waits until the end to drop a bomb.

Chris, Omni & Jordan recap the penultimate weekend of the Midseason Madness play-ins, which had the Toronto Defiant quality, the Vancouver Titans reinforce why they won't, and raise some serious questions about teams on the inside looking out and the outside looking in.

Episode 159: Deep Pockets

Something is right in The Six, the Titans continue to improve, and deep pockets get you StarCraft Brig.

Last week we were concerned about Toronto. This week, not as much. Kind of like how the Defiant play week over week. And with the Vancouver Titans continuing to improve, could they have a shot against the Shock?! Chris, Omni & Jordan speculate - because that's what they do best - about the Overwatch League, Midseason Madness, Overwatch 2 and why the promo to get the Brig skin could be what we should get used to!

Episode 158: Gift Me Watchpoint Pack

We know more about Overwatch 2, something ain't right in the Six & Titans are... okay?

After a whole lot of podcast speculation and trepidation towards Overwatch 2, Chris's worries were set at ease as Jordan's ideas were validated with the dev update last week. Before the two dive into what they expect the game to play like, and how Junker Queen has every heroes kit, they wonder what's going wrong in Toronto and whether things are getting back on track in Vancouver.

Episode 157: RSP is MLM

The Overwatch League is back in action & Overwatch 2 is launches in the Fall!

Despite the return of Overwatch League action with both the Toronto Defiant & Vancouver Titans in action, Chris, Omni & Jordan are in full silly mode. They also spend quite a bit of serious time wondering what the "live-service free-to-play model" will actually look like with Overwatch 2, share some worries based on recent Blizzard & Activision monetization history, and get psyched about the new hero (and heroes) - Junker Queen.

Episode 156: Unclutch and Stuffs

The Kickoff Clash is complete and the Vancouver Titans & Toronto Defiant both have new coaches.

Shortly before our last episode went live, big Vancouver Titans news broke. Then we got to witness the Kickoff Clash and remember what it was like to have Overwatch League action played in front of a live & engaged audience. And if that wasn't everything, the Toronto Defiant decide to share some big news too. Chris, Omni & Jordan discuss the impact the coaching changes will have on BOTH of the Canadian OWL teams, what they expect from both going into the Midseason Madness, and if these changes are simply coincidental or a sign of things to come.
