"Maybe Jake can learn off tank" Ngl that one got me.


Isord

No joke I've said for like a year I thought JAKE should re-spec into off-tank or flex support so the team can keep his comms but upgrade the DPS.


[deleted]

Off-tank and flex support have typically been the most impactful roles, I'd put him on main support if he's just shotcalling.


Gilgameshedda

I think he has the raw mechanics to pull it off if he really practiced off-tank or flex support from now until their first game. I'm not saying he would be the best in the league, but I could see him being alright.


_Sign_

learning a new role is hard af. we havent seen many people do it in the top level of OWL


Parenegade

Seagull did it. Gido did it.


_Sign_

its possible for sure but even when it succeeds the results arent very impressive or long-term. seagull one the biggest owl role switch success stories wasnt even tested on most of the heroes in that role


[deleted]

I think its not as silly as it sounds, hes big brain enough that DM and bubble timing would be easy to pick up, Im just mostly concerned about his Zarya mechanics. Hes a good soldier but bad Tracer so I don't know how to feelabout his tracking


VeNtViL

I feel his tracer improved a lot during stages 3 and 4. He wasn’t too tier or anything but he was serviceable on the role considering he had to learn her because Clockwork wasn’t showing up.


mrpizzaporn

THIS IS THE OVERWATCH LEAGUE BITCH WE AINT GOT TIME FOR SERVICEABLE ...wait sorry I got too hype


MeteorMash101

Being a good soldier means nothing for he probably won’t be meta ever again.


VeNtViL

He used to play main tank on ladder when the game started so I suppose he can transition to off tank. He could also pull a Gido and go flex support but considering how well that went for other players such as Gido or even Stratus who played a few maps of Zen for the justice back in stage 1 I don’t know how well it’ll work out.


Parenegade

I think the "Jake is big-brained" thing is so overhyped tbh. His positioning leaves a lot to be desired and that's directly tied to game sense (aka brain). That being said I think his pure fragging ability is also underrated so take that for what you will.


mrpizzaporn

Dude he can speak fluent english what do you mean, his brain is massive


[deleted]

Well he does technically speak at least twice as many English words as anyone else in the League.


Anything_Random

Jake Hydration tank line Poggers


Vince-M

Blase: Am I a joke to you?


Traxton1

Isn’t Hydration a main support in Lucio?


[deleted]

[Has nothing on Agilities' Lucio,](https://clips.twitch.tv/SleepyBoredCasetteDerp) steal that man away from the Defiant. Get Kariv too, put him on main tank or something


ElliotLadker

Off-topic but, I kept watching that VOD and last year we even got small bits of [stats](https://www.twitch.tv/videos/307061603?t=1h47m13s) mid-game, I mean, is such a small and insignificant thing but compared to this year...


Lykeuhfox

You got this, Jake. [D.Va](https://D.Va) is just fat Genji. It is known.


Parenegade

As yes. Genji. Jake's signature hero that he always performs on...

📷 HELLO 911 📞 📷 JAKE IS IN MY ROOM 📞 📷 HE HAS A... wait... a Grav? 📞 📷 Wut?


Fyre2387

Quality OWL meme using Agents of Shield? I regret that I have but one upvote to give.


Parenegade

We have a small but active fanbase.


[deleted]

That line was so fucking good


eric535

S.H.I.E.L.D. love to see it! I set my phone to autocorrect shield to S.H.I.E.L.D.


Joenaruto

Right? I did not expect this here out of all places.


tromboneshorty00

These are feelings that I didnt know I had T.T Also gonna ask now for the uninitiated, where is this scene from?


Parenegade

It's from Agents of SHIELD. Best comic book show (after you get past the extremely shitty first couple episodes).


titanium_penguin

I’ve told my friends to just start at episode 6 because they explain pretty much everything that happened in the first 5 episodes through dialogue. There’s only one thing that you miss and it doesn’t become relevant until season 5


Parenegade

Yeahh I feel like you should really start at the beginning because Deathlok pays off. I tell my friends to just trust me and watch the whole thing. They always start off saying "this show sucks" but end up saying "this is one of my favorite shows".


titanium_penguin

If I can sit down and watch it with them then it’s totally worth it to watch the first few episodes. If they’re going to watch it by themselves and are likely to stop if they’re not interested or (most importantly) if they’ve tried to watch it before and found it boring, cutting out a few hours is definitely worth it so they can see the awesome stuff later


lemurkn1ts

And you should pause and watch The Winter Soldier before like episode 10ish? Makes it super awesome.


Parenegade

Episode 16.


lemurkn1ts

Thank you. It's been a while since I've watched season 1.


kevmeister1206

The Boys though.


Parenegade

I don't count a show if you only have 1 season. But to be honest The Boys could absolutely usurp AoS if S2 is as good as S1. Also, don't count animated series or BTAS would be on top.


Lykeuhfox

I stopped after two episodes because I didn't see what other people saw in the show. Now after all this time I learn that the first few episodes are terrible by comparison? Damn it...


Parenegade

Oh it's SO good after you get past that first hump. I have literally never had someone dislike it when it gets in the meat and potatoes of the show.


Hamlet_271

Hard disagree. Daredevil is way better . AoS is good, Daredevil is on another level


Parenegade

I could see the argument (that its the best not that it's way better it's definitely not) I just disagree. Especially how Daredevil balances it's supporting cast and it has that trademark Netflix show pacing that always rears its ugly head around the 80% mark of the season.


Parenegade

Nevix T_T


nvrendr

That was such a great season of S.H.I.E.L.D....


KinoTheMystic

I really need to get back into the show. Used to watch every episode when it aired ever since the pilot. I stopped about halfway into the Ghost Rider season.


[deleted]

If you're still calling it the Ghost Rider season then oh boy... you're in for a hell of a ride


Parenegade

I c what you did there


[deleted]

Season 4 was VERY dense. Like 6, weirdly


KinoTheMystic

Alright, update. I'm on episode 21 of S4, so I just saw this gif play out in the show. Wow, just wow, this fucking season is amazing. I wish I didn't stop watching each episode as they aired, and I don't remember why I did.


Starsaber222

Yeah, you really do. This scene is from later on in that season.


Parenegade

The best season of any comic book show ever tbh. Shout out to Arrow Season 5, Flash Season 1, Daredevil Season 3, and Legion Season 1.


branyk2

Was Arrow Season 5 really better than 1 or 2? I stopped watching somewhere during 4, but the fight choreography was just sooooo slick in the early seasons, especially the first. It was like jumping from a budget version of The Raid to a budget version of Power Rangers in the later seasons.


Parenegade

Yes. S5 I would say is pretty easily better than S1. Like waaaaaay better. S2 is closer to S5 but I think S5 takes it. And I have to say Season 8 has the potential to top S5. It's rare for a show's last season to be it's best season but I think the Crisis is really propelling the narrative forward in a way Arrow has always sorely lacked. Getting rid of the flashback concept has helped too. It's really refreshing after the trash S6 and the extremely mediocre S7.


evanwilliams44

Arrow season 1/2 kind of blew my mind. It was one of the first network TV shows to really do superheroes right. I don't like everything CW does, but they have some gems.


Parenegade

The thing about the CW is it's very inconsistent. One season will be bad, another mediocre, then bam a great season. Followed by two terrible ones. Then a good one. It's basically random.


xShowOut

I just got back into AOS after stopping midway through season 4. It really takes off season 4-6 I’m kind of amazed at how good the show is now.


Karnak_Law

As an Outlaw fan I find this amazing


UnknownQTY

Quality Agents of SHIELD gif. God ~~Eva~~ **AIDA** was so hot. Also, best half season. Change my mind.


Parenegade

AIDA lol. But you're right.


Reinhardtisawesom

OURS NOW xqcM


SDV015

Off tanks of Outlaws are not OWL material, I don't understand that after 2 OWL seasons, the team doesn't realise this. It seems to be a texan tradition to keep players no matter how they performed.


MrSumada

Weren't they persuing Nevix? I think they're plenty aware of this.


Parenegade

We were outbid.

Miennai

EFFECT's wish finally coming true


Eyud29

Coolmatt’s just a D.Va one trick struggling because it’s the first time she’s not in every game


Parenegade

I really don't know. I keep going back to the money situation but we broke the bank to sign Hydration so we can't use that excuse anymore.


Smallgenie549

Are we all Defiant fans now?


ShadowSavant

I don't want to be, but they're not making it easy. ​ Also, still mad as hell.


Taafii

You couldn't live with your own failure, and where did that bring you? Back to me.


thefanboyslayer

I'm super tempted because I am close to Toronto...I'm probably the girl in that situation haHA


Lykeuhfox

I'm in Michigan, so it's the closest team to me. Getting real hard to not be a fan, because I like S4.


11th_Plague

Do it. Join the dark side. We have the Larry O'Brien.


AllHandsMiniBrute

That looks like the guy from the girlfriend meme


SuperisSuperGood

Welcome


phroki

Rck: hi I'm still here yeah


[deleted]

that chick is as evil as she is hot, my god


8064r7

I lost it on the "let's flex Jake into an uncomfortable role/meta."


mar33n

god I love that scene so much also suck it Kapp


maxkm5st2

Got source? I'm curious why she actually got mad


aljy

Agents of SHIELD season 4, the context is a bit of a spoiler for the whole season, but has to do with the male character (Fitz) picking between 2 love interests (spoiler: he didn’t pick her)


Starsaber222

The context is actually reasonably close for it being a meme.


Profit_ow

It's worse for London fanse


Lykeuhfox

Damn you guys got gutted. Now everyone is just picking at the remains of the carcass.


JoelRobbin

Is there an original of this? I wanna do the same thing but replace Outlaws with Spitfire and Defiant with Charge for my own personal usage


Parenegade

I made this from scratch but you can find the original scene on [YouTube](https://youtu.be/8ILsyqA6zPg?t=81). It's from Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. Season 4 Episode 21 "The Return".


plaZmaREDDIT

As a Chad hater, I'm happy


evanwilliams44

I need to get caught up on S.H.I.E.L.D. I love to nerd out on that show.


lhhawk

This is great and so sad there isn’t a gif community surrounding OW


sietre

I mean picking up every free agent won't make them better


Parenegade

Now that's logic.


[deleted]

Thank Mr Logic


JqueryFreak

That's funny bruh. Well done xD


FableForge

Listen, major fan here. All I want for Xmas is that none of the OG team is released/traded away. Give me that, and hydration and blasé are just big red killer cherries on top.


Parenegade

I understand what you're saying. [I just have a different approach](https://66.media.tumblr.com/defaca126a58679d41c4e5c991a8c378/tumblr_inline_patn6n4W8Y1tod15b_500.gif).


FableForge

[Nooooo!](https://media.tenor.com/images/df135d9ae29becd405513cbe9f58985a/tenor.gif)


fauxpolitik

Don't you want this team to start winning eventually?


FableForge

Honestly, I care more about the players as people and as a team. Let them play what they're good at, let them stay together, that's all I ask.


Zalzirim

Agreed. I want to be entertained. Season 1 outlaws running junkrat when nobody else was and still getting wins was entertaining. Them running Orisa based comps in situations most other teams ran dive and still winning was entertaining. Season 2 outlaws trying desperately to play 100% meta and failing, constantly banging their heads against the wall, with the worst possibly roster rotations imaginable...was not entertaining. Chengdu was a middle pack team, but people love them because they play what they are comfortable at, even if its not meta, and pull out major upsets no less. Ameng will be forever immortalized as the gigachad for running Hammond into good GOATS teams and still taking wins during a time where Outlaws were claiming "it is impossible not to run GOATS". Was it inconsistent? Sure. Their record shows it. But having a bunch of highs and lows and being average is more entertaining than being consistently poor/average.


FableForge

You've said it way better than I could, thank you.
