#goated lineup tho

[comeback-be-here]

Both impressive and a little embarrassing. To be fair, I listen to Taylor a lot when I drive. And I drive a lot so.

What Clothes I think TF141 would wear as civilians

A/N: these r just my opinions 🙅🏿🙅🏿🙅🏿

Simon "Ghost" Riley

I've seen a lot of people say Ghost would wear techwear and after looking it up what techwear is he most likely wouldn't lol. I feel like Simon wouldn't like clothes that attract attention, but that doesn't mean he's allergic to wearing colour. a basic dark coloured hoodie with a bit of jewelry is something I would see him wearing.

Johnny "Soap" MacTavish

Honestly I had no idea what style Johnny would be. I tried to be as realistic as possible and to be completely honest this was the best I could come up with 🤷🏿 apologies. the basic sweatshirt with a few bracelets combo is goated as hell tho.

Kyle "Gaz" Garrick

idk why I see him as the type to wear the same polo and hat everywhere ☠️. when I saw that specific shirt I thought of him instantly, idk it's just so fitting. and his iconic hat, it ain't Gaz if don't have a hat on 🤷🏿

John Price

yh we all know what time it is. sorry Price fans but he's gonna have to go with the basic white British man fit. honest everyone in this list would've gotten this lineup of clothes but I was like "nah". man's has no fashion sense just wears whatever's clean ☠️☠️☠️

[iwtvdramacd18]

hi goat hi uhm some questions :D 4, 11, 15, 19, and/or 31? and of course, 40 :)

Hiiiii Dre <333

4. Say you’re recommending the show right now, how would you pitch it?

IWTV has quickly risen up to Utena levels for me where I'm so in love with it that I can't properly explain WHY it means to much to me and why I like it so much in like a proper way I'd just have to be like: listen. Trust me. Maybe show a clip....the one they used on Norton (dabble in fucker) was actually a really good example of like great Louis scene but also removed enough from any sort of spoiler context

11. Has your favorite episode remained the same since you first finished the season? 

It has not! Somewhere between my rewatches episode 6 has become my firm fav episode, I think before then it was the first ep.

15. What were your favorite costumes? 

Recently I've been thinking a lot about the Dubai matching funeral fits

19. What was your favorite dialogue of season one? 

Very predictable of me but "62 and a half kilograms" "...what?" Love how it tells us so much about Louis and Armand but like in this very veiled and constrained way

31. What’s your most anticipated season two storyline?

I want to know like. How Armand and Louis are still together/ if they did part and got back together later? There's literally so much stuff there like. Claudia constantly haunting the narrative with it too.

40. If you made any fanworks of your own, what are your personal favorites? Throw yourself some flowers! 

In terms of fics Prey Drive and Wolfkiller might be my favs right now kinda in terms of wow I really did that? I pulled that off? I was so scared especially for Wolfkiller that it would turn out bad but they didn't!

Fanart wise honestly idk I've drawn so much... I'm quite fond of this armand piece even tho its not like the actual version of it and its still not done haha

And then also the Louis outfit lineup too!

Aaaaand the snarling Lestat and Armand (and Louis) set

[sonknuxadow]

Do you happen to know which characters are left for jakks to make figures of? I was very delightfully surprised by Neo Metal and heavy king, and am now holding out hope for an Excalibur Sonic and the Werehog. Really, really hoping for that, they are my goats and I always got so sad that I saw them so often at toys r us but couldn't get them because we were and still r poor ✌️ got that goat jazwares werehog plush tho

well its kinda hard to say what the obvious picks are for more figures when they've already made figures of all the obvious picks and are getting increasingly more obscure with the character choices. wave and storm feel obvious since they've already made one of jet. and the rest of the hard boiled heavies that don't have figures yet. maybe bean and bark since isnt there a fang figure now. but fang probably only got one since hes relevant to recent games which can't be said for bean or bark so idk. also emerl is suddenly relevant again too so maybe it would be a good time to make a figure of him. maria too but they don't really do merch of human characters aside from eggman so that feels very unlikely . a sage figure would also be really cool. doesnt feel too unlikely because shes relevant to a recent game And shes like the only non eggman humanoid character who gets merch.. also zavok should probably be added to the lineup at some point if theyre going for as many characters as possible but that would also be a very unpopular choice so idk

transformations are also probably on the table since super sonic shadow and silver got figures. i think the most likely to get one is werehog since hes one of the more well known ones. other than him though maybe burning blaze to go with the super forms? and excalibur sonic and darkspine sonic would be pretty cool . and shadow with his black arms wings

[goatlingsvent]

🧆 I've looked it up and the last DAG winner that wasn't among the 4 first designs of the list was Quilt Ghost from last september votes. On this specific list, the quality of most of the designs is pretty balanced imo, it was such a good lineup (minus one, you might know which. r00p's version is better anyway lmao).

Before that, Comet Chaser was first on list, miles away in quality above all the other designs. Won by being made by a top notch artist.

Star Hopper was 4th and I'd say it's okay in quality, the best rendered ones were in 8,2 and 5 imo, the 10th one having a cute style too. Not exactly sure why it won, the scarf maybe ? I do want that scarf...

Before again, Crowsmic Rogue in 4th. Artistically better designs were in 1 and 8. Won by being heavy on details and interesting concept.

Bread Basket was in 2, the quality is pretty balanced for this line up. Personal favorite in 4. Bread Basket was the most cohesive design tho.

Witchy Gardener was in 1, best rendered is 5. But the line up is on part overall, Witchy Garden won by being the heaviest in details.

Destined Duet in 1. It's a r00p design need I say more ? 2 and 3 had the next best quality artists.

Impressionist was in 1. Most detailed and rendered design. I'd say it is made by the best artist in this lineup tho I really love 3 and 5 too.

Dark Girly was in 2. Quality is overall similar. I'd say the best rendered are 4 and 9 tho. Dark girly won by being what the majority wanted in style.

Goatoroid was in 3. It's a Berrymilk design who is an extremely talented designer. 1 and 5 have notably good qualities. And gotta say we have a beginner artist goat in this lineup in 8. BUT it's a Staff design. Interesting.

I don't think you're completely wrong in your observation but also it's not a constant thing either so ??? Idk what to think honestly

Side Effects Analysis/Theories

Miroh/Yellow Wood || Side Effects [Teaser] [MV] || Double Knot

I’m back with tiny details to help all your theories uwu, more of notes than theories

NOTE: anything with asterisks* means it is mentioned again later in the post (it’s a long post ok)

YELLOW GUI

(basically the overlays/coding)

someone is logging in*, shown with PASS_LOGIN (followed by a long list of letters I’m too lazy to list) on the right side, along with

#00001 (yes, there’s a space)

#00002

#0003

most of the code on the left is refers to these codes+lost of letters, just a program being executed

the left side also has a “TOTAL” that starts at 297 and decreases to 149

the right side has 3 percentages listed that start at 0% and go up to 99% until the first drops back down to 98%

(the first percentage is the first to appear/increase btw)

the screen clears once the 3 listed ones hit 99%*

there’s also a 4th one that goes from 0% to 40% at the bottom right

also this is probably obvious, but the screen flashes yellow whenever smth bad is about to happen**

IT IS REFLECTION. Finally I can stop being so ominous, but the left side gui says “*it is reflection*”!! Right here!! Wth?!?!**

Idk if this is smth significant but I’ve never seen it before in code so

THE BUS STOP (take 2)

the bus station route has 5 stops, ending at the NEW WORLD (03)

the 5 stops seem to be the first 5 letters of the Greek alphabet in lowercase: α β γ δ ε****

y’all can see clearly the signs next to the elevator saying BE PREPARED TO STOP and DETOUR

there’s are two moons: the one on the left is the colour of the sky and is fading, whereas the one on the right is tinted pink/red/purple and has a clear silhouette***

LICENCE PLATES

the plate of the City Jungle bus (w/their signature lion logo) has AD2540*** skip to the end to see my revelation :)

skz’s truck thing has B2Y1017 and a tiger symbol on the driver’s side door

I didn’t come up w/this but 1017 is probably a reference to October 2017, when Hellevator was posted

****if so, then the B2Y could be referencing the Greek letters here, or maybe “Back to You”? maybe that’s how they’re confirming that they’ll go back to the hell elevator or bujakyong i guess lol

connecting to smth I mentioned in my first analysis: the tiger in a Korean legend wasn’t able to persevere and become human, whereas the bear was. Maybe it’s symbolism they couldn’t go on w/o ditching the truck at the end?

RANDOM ROAD TRIP STUFF

(anything that happens while they’re on the truck)

Chan spots smth red in the ground?? (flowers?) but thas real sketchy bc the slowly emptying gas tank is shown right after the screen turns red

this is the only instance of the screen going just red during this mv

Hyunjin gets a solo shot after

Hyunjin’s vs Felix

Felix stands up on the truck and Hyunjin tries to get him to sit down, only to be brushed off by Felix

when Chan did this, Hyunjin didn’t do anything, only get that solo shot

Hyunjin vs Seungmin

I won’t go deep into this bc other people have better theories, but if Hyunjin was worried abt them being watched, then it makes sense that he’d try to stop Felix from making them obvious or getting hurt (which then they’d need to find someone to help him)

the papers on the ground they step on say: new road/elevator, road closed/_min_ _ation_

also Peach pointed out that the older members go to Hyunjin, and the younger ones go to Seungmin owo

when the gui percents reach 99%, they break the gate blocking their way

***as I said before, the screen turns yellow before smth (really) bad happens, but not before the truck tire gets pierced?? (again, maybe they were supposed to ditch the truck???)

the city in the sky

obviously, the city in the sky is the City Jungle, and being in the sky (cloud 9-esque maybe??) keeps them away from the mostly-abandoned Yellow Wood floor

the lightning probably shows the true face of the City Jungle (go figure)

they all run away from search lights? So they were found again, but also how did they end up back here????

THEORIES: the bible, the login, and Reflection

NOTE: the only theory that’s possibly accurate is reflection lol so you can skip down

If you read my previous 2 analyses/note posts, you know I’ve been curious about reflections and Bible references. Admittedly, I don’t think the bible stuff will be as prominent (bc it’s religious), but the reflection stuff will probably be focused on.

THE BIBLE

As I said, this stuff likely isn’t accurate, but it would fit really well if they decide to go this route!! It started with the cross earrings/necklaces in previous comebacks (mainly worn by Hyunjin), the fact Hellevator  is HELLevator, and when skz runs together at 3:18 (in Side Effects), they form a cross, with Hyunjin up front.

I’ve also mentioned some bible verses that I found using numbers in the mvs (note that I use the New International Version to quote anything). Most of the ones were mostly irrelevant though. Other people have brought up in another theory that “AD” on the licence plate AD2540 could reference Anno Domini which could mean this was happening in the future, but I double-checked bible verses again.

Book of Matthew, 25:40 = “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’”

This section is about the King who has separated his “sheep” (those who have done good) to the right and “goats” (those who haven’t done good) to the left. The king says the sheep have done good things for him, but the sheep say they didn’t do those things to him specifically. This verse is referencing that the king knows they have done good to another person, and therefore him.

Obviously, if this were actually what skz were going for, they probably would’ve referenced the actual verse where the king separates his sheep and goats, but regardless, it does bring up the question: where else have we seen left and right, where one is bad?

We’ve seen it a few times: the two roads taken shown side by side when they take the bus or don’t, the two moons, and possibly skz vs the City Jungle.

THE LOGIN

Hyunjin, the “error” (other people’s posts go more in depth), is a focal point in this mv. We’ve also heard about “glitches” Jisung and Felix. So who can disprove that they’re just in a computer? (Jk but listen)

The yellow gui (and other code screens in Miroh) suggest we’re monitoring them. Or maybe the gui is in Hyunjin’s brain?? But I do know the percentages mirror what skz are doing (when they break the gate at 99%) and the screen goes yellow before smth bad happens (which is usually stuff Hyunjin notices).

There also seems to be an error in the code… idk how to explain this well, but the “error” might actually be planned. (I’ll make another post to clarify.)

REFLECTION

I mentioned in my 1st post that the lineup of skz on the rooftops in Miroh and the Yellow Wood teaser were mirrored, except 2 members switched with the 2 right next to them (Jeongin/Minho switched and Jisung/Hyunjin switched—did Hyunjin become the glitch at that point?). This might be a coincidence since it isn’t exact mirroring.

Anyway, there��s definitely some reference to reflection, because of the yellow gui! It might just be a nod to smth but hm. This is where I just dump some ideas

As I said in the Bible paragraphs, there’s references to left/good and right/bad. So reflection could reference:

people you thought were good are actually bad and vice versa (reference to Hyunjin, Jisung, and Felix maybe?)

the choice that’s on the left is good and the right is bad (getting on the bus was a good choice, which technically it was bc they’re sleeping peacefully) or the other way around

The moon on the right is “bad” (discoloured), but maybe actually the better one once reflected

You can also consider our left is their right, but that’s just confusing lol

Honestly, none of these seem right, but the gui is telling someone (likely just us tho) that smth is being reflected, and maybe not in a good way, since we aren’t seeing things the right way, or we’re seeing the bad parallel.

OWL Season 2 Preseason Ranking

20. Toronto Defiant

I really wanted to put Washington here because I have no faith in that team.  But the Toronto has a main tank I’m unfamiliar with and Main Tanks were extremely important in OWL way before goats meta.  I see Neko and Envy and it really inspires me.  I see Bishop and I’m like wow.  But Bishop doesn’t really have a history of winning in Overwatch lately.  From London to Cloud9 he really hasn’t been producing W’s.  I like the roster a lot and maybe the meta shifts heavily in there favor but right now I don’t think Neko can fix a frontline issue.

19. Washington Justice

I do not like this roster.  The late addition (they were all late) of Gido and Ado really inspires me but if Ado wasn’t enough to get Shanghai 1 W than he won’t be enough in what mite possibly be a more difficult season. 28 games and more down time in between.  Well rested players, highly practiced, and prepared for there matches.  Janus is really strong in this lineup and so are the coaches.  I guess this roster would do pretty good in NA contenders. 

18. Chengdu Hunters

I don’t trust the roster or the process.  Highest level league play does something to teams with potential.  It chews them up and spits them out.  Maybe this is the good side of the Chinese scene that Shanghai never showed us in season 1.  I probably have them ranked too low but what the Dragons did in season 1 worries me. 

17.  Guangzhou Charge

Either this team will be surprisingly good or really bad.  It really depends on the coaching staff and how well they are supported by the org. A lot of there season depends on Rio and how well he works with the different players on the roster. They mite catch themselves halfway thru the season and start playing well. 

16. Florida Mayhem

I like the roster a lot.  I know BQB was accused of boosting but he’s extremely talented.  xepheR is really good. Solid DPS, decent tanks, good supports (hopefully way better than last year).  Coaching staff and org staff still seems really small.  They could surprise people depending on the meta.

15. Boston Uprising

Huk, Could be worst team in the league.  Three main tanks.  Poorly coached and managed.  Extremely talented players. 

14.Shanghai Dragons

I don’t want to rank them this low but I’m floating 3-4 teams around this spot.  They haven’t won a game in OWL yet.  Hopefully they have a nice schedule of lower level teams and they can produce some quality wins.  Org seems ready to commit this season so I expect huge problems will be scorched away quickly. 

13. Seoul Dynasty

Fissure is cool I guess.  They have a balanced roster, experienced team, and a schedule system that will highly benefit them.  Older players mite not listen to new in game leadership this far into there careers. I’m not very confident in there synergy and I wanted to rank them a few spots back.  They do have piles and piles of talent tho.  

12. San Francisco Shock

If we remove all the DPS players from the roster and look closely will see some problems.  Mid tier off tanks and mid tier main tanks.  New season same problem.  One of there main tanks need to play at a higher level.  Off tank can exist well enough if there main tank plays well enough.  Support trio could be strong depending on the meta. 

11. Houston Outlaws

I have my personal disagreements with how they play.  I’m a fan of them and they upset me from time to time.  In a goats meta having someone like Spree who can slide into that 2nd DPS spot and play Zarya is amazing.  They won’t use Spree like that.  Houston is going to fuddle thru the season and end up worse than 11th.  Could easily reach top 8 if they make good decisions before matches even start. They prepare pretty poorly and depend to heavily on classic 2/2/2 roster lineups to play the game.  Polar opposite of what the Eastern OW scene has been doing lately. 

10. Atlanta Reign

May have similar issues with Houston.  Roster has built in solutions to potential problems but the team mite not use them.  I’m very big on the roster even without Dafran.  Front line has synergy.  Backup Academy front line also has great synergy.  Supports are questionable but Academy support duo is extremely experienced and reliable.  DPS is very solid for a trio.  Has 1 map sub potential which can be very powerful in OWL.  Team is built to work no matter what.  Mite not be lead in right direction to succeed.  

9.  Los Angeles Valiant

There mistakes finally show up in there results.  Remember when “development” was a big part of there OW decision making???  Suddenly you have an APEX coach and his players are at the top of the roster. This team goes as far as Kariv can take them while covering every hole on the roster. Honestly if this team finishes top 4 with Kariv starting at DPS he’ll deserve OWL MVP.  \

8. Dallas Fuel

I’m very high on them and very low on them at the same time.  Added players, added coaching staff, re commitment to the team on a whole. Schedule change will be huge for them.  New season same problem.  What happens when a projectile meta happens???  They’ll be able to play it but main players who aren’t as good as the bench players will have to play or bench players will have to step into major roles.  Could cause problems with how well they’ll play this season.  Dallas and Seoul need to remember how to win to be successful again. 

7. Vancouver Titans

They will have problems.  May it be there org or just how there playing.  They will struggle.  But this team has too much experience and inner support to just fall apart.  Where the org or players fail the fans and team will pick up.   They won’t get this far and go down without a fight. The talent difference will start to show throughout the season but they will overcome it as a team. 

6. Los Angeles Gladiators

I got a little down on them but than I remembered how well they play.  The support trio will play well no matter what. Surefour will show up.  Decay and R0ar will show up.  Void should be better this season if they don’t want to play Bischu.  Will win games like they’ve been here before. 

5. Philadelphia Fusion

I got a little down on them.  I love what Elk will bring to the team but he’s just a Lucio.  Poko is the only off tank.  When will Eqo run out of talent?  Will they even play Fragi during goats meta?  But they are a force of nature.  Carpe won’t give up.  Much like the Gladiators they’ve been here before and it will show. 

4. Hangzhou Spark

 I am extremely high on this team.  And also a huge X6 Gaming fan.  Krystal and Godsb (a widow god).  Ria and Nosmite AND Guxue if they want to mix up the main tank role.  I love this roster and its potential.  Mite step into the league like NYXL. 

3. Paris Eternal 

Maybe I forgot to rank them a few spots ago and just put them here (maybe).  I was very high on France in the OWWC and was a little disappointed.  The roster and staff is fucking stacked to the roof.  From Kruise on Support leading the team, Main tanks Benbest and Lhcloudy, and to the stacked DPS lineup of Soon and Shadowburn.  If OWL ever goes into a Dive meta they will near the top. 

2. New York Excelsior 

Hmmm.  

Hmm.

Could be #1.  They have the roster to go 28-0.  But its 28 games will bigger breaks between games this season.  I like to think that benefits the next team the most. 

1. London Spitfire

Back to back champions?  Barely any change to the roster and that’s ok.  The biggest offseason addition was the change to the regular season format.  Strong new teams should challenge London but I knew a few will bow before the world champions.  Look out for a repeat.  

Conclusion

I wrote this far too fast and without enough research (LOL I guess).  I’ve watched a lot of Hangzhou Spark players already on X6 Gaming.  We already know how good some of these teams already are.  This is mostly speculation.  And meta shifts could turn this list upside down at any moment.
