The Boston Uprising: Failing their Kraft (SiR)

- In season 1, the Boston Uprising were the ultimate underdog story, completing the league first perfect stage and qualifying for a playoff berth. That’s why what happened afterwards is all the more confusing and frustrating. Yes, in this case, we did not save the best for last. Let’s try our best to sift through the mess that is the Boston Uprising.

On the next episode of Boston Uprising SiR at the end of 2020:
*Dumpster Fire v2, Trashy Boogaloo*
This this is it
v3
Aestify It’s v2 because Boston weren’t that bad in season 1
and Jerry
@@houstonwehaveaproblem4187 they were one of the best in the league in season 1, they finished 3rd
I met Robert Kraft once. I shook his hand and had a nice conversation with him. I even pretended to be an Uprising Fan for him. God damn I wished I washed my hands after that expierience.
Why
Demangjan Demangjan Boston can’t go a single year without a sex and/or pedo scandal. In 2018 it was DK. Now it’s Mouffin. Take a guess at who it was for 2019.

Dude season 2 of SIR was amazing. I've never clicked on a series of videos so fast. Can't wait to see what comes next
Uprising is my favorite team, has been since the start of OWL, and even I dreaded seeing this SiR every time that wheel was spun. Season 2 for Boston was a disaster and everything just went wrong for them. Hopefully they learned from their lessons, get back on their feet, and start winning agai...
*News of He-who-also-shall-not-be-named-right-now comes out*
Ah shit, here we go again
He-who-must-not-be-named 2 electric boogaloo
But...who *_IS_* He who must not be named?
I think the Uprising are worse now sadly bro. They have almost nothing now.
@Blake Verdon Just look up who the Uprising terminated in season 1 on youtube. There is like 5 to 10 videos about it
Blake Verdon Mouffin this time around
Tier lists and top 10s would be lit, also interested in more OWL content, whatever that may be
Declan The Meme Dealer I suggest ATP overwatch. Really good analysis
Chris Rulli Love that guy
Here's an idea for a new series, Players in review. I'd love to see some of the biggest players from each season and highlighting their journey through the ranks if the league. For example, how sinatraa going from a nobody to the most popular player in season 2.
I feel so bad for asking, literally grinded contenders for 3 years
He deserves it so hard man, even if just any thrash team picks him up it would be good
He doesn't wanna be a pro, he said it himself. I think(don't quote me on this) he wants to go pro on Valorant
@@owconundrum9928 fair enough, but why is he playing for Clockwork vendetta? In EU contenders. He should be grinding csgo then.
@@owconundrum9928 He wanted to be a pro but all what hallend he don't want to be a pro anymore and is looking out for valorant.
@@airination6140 first of all, I didn't know he was in clockwork verdetta now.
Second, I'm just saying what he himself said.
Third, Valorant is not really CSGO nor Overwatch, its a mixture so grinding any of the two is good imo.
“something went wrong” anyone else?
Edit:Guess it’s fixed now
Yeah
Sixa me too
Yep
Yeah
lol
A good team has never fallen so fast
Me: Season 1 outlaws
Houston was good in Stage one of S1 but after that they were mediocre and got 7th place. They weren’t garbage like Boston
Outlaws went from 7th/12 to 16th/20, Uprising went from 3rd/12 to 19th/20
Toronto Defiant season 2
naw Outlaws is just terrible in general.
did you not see s1 stage 1 they where a good team but they falled hard and have never recovered
Thank you for continuing this series, every episode was great, can't wait to see you on twitch
Weekly content and OWL news seems nice. And great job finishing this high quality series!
Truly loved the series. So glad you stuck it through. Excited for what’s to come!
The relaxed pacing, thoughtful and clear analysis, and emotion (like disappointment esp in this vid lol) carried through.
I have loved every single one of these SiR's and have been excited for every one that has come out. Thank you for the amazing content man!
i really enjoyed this series, thank you for making and creating it
Thank you, dividing, for making this series. It was really entertaining to watch.
They're all done! Yay! Keep up the great content throughout the season! And we'll see you in the next off-season! Top 10s sound like a lot of fun!
Congratulations, this is the best OWL content out there. Well done for getting to the end :).
As for upcoming content, I would love to have a restrospective on Lunatic Hai, a bit like what you've done for Runaway. Their history, their challenges, what's left today, their legacy all in all ^^.
Their story along that of EnvyUs/Fuel is very interesting to see :)
Moving forward, I would love to see more storyline videos. I really enjoyed your RunAway video a few years ago as well as Casual's Guides. Your script writing makes me feel like OWL is a manga or something, and it makes the league even more exciting to watch.
Great video to end a brilliant series. Really looking forward to your future content, regardless of what you decide to do!
I loved this series! Thank you for your hard work in making it. A look back felt really fun. As for what comes next, I think the lesson of seven second summary is clear: do what makes you the happiest. I would personally love anything Overwatch related, as I enjoy your unique voice and editing when it comes to content. As for some ideas to help jumpstart the process, we're currently going through a wild, chaotic season, and in that spirit I suggest less structured content for a while to give you a break and let your creativity shine forth. However, in the end only you can decide what's best for your channel and most importantly yourself. I look forward to whatever you end up with! Thanks again!
congrats Dividing! Loved this series!!
i love how critical you are in all your videos of the teams and how right you are. you don’t bullshit or sugar coat any of the facts. keep up with the good work
I really enjoyed seven second summary style videos from you, please consider doing more of that! ATP's content is simply too long winded for me but you're really good at making things concise.
I thinka series where you talk about the team and games from that week would be awesome! What a fantastic series and job well done!
Really love these series of videos, im waiting for mor of this!
you should do more content like this. it's really fun to watch and engaging. maybe do a similar series where you do a deep dive on a team's players' origins or something like that. or a player/coach's story that really interests you
Congrats dude! Way to stay on the grind
I’ve been loving these videos thanks for making them :)
This is gonna hurt to watch, but let's do it
Thank you for all the videos! I'd love to see more videos on CZcams
Really don’t want to watch this, but...
Another high quality video Dividing! Maybe you can stream Vod reviews of some owl matches on twitch and upload to youtube? Maybe a not very detailed one, but a vod review just smooth enough for us plat chat would be great
Just want you to know I loved every single one of these
Like I said in the last video, you should really get hired by OWL to make content for them, I love this series, this is genuinely one the best Overwatch League content out there, and I can't wait for the next SiR. But now is time to chill and have fun. Love your content, and keep it up! :)
Thank you for doing these videos
Love the videos man
I like the videos discussing the special games like Houston v Boston, keep the SiRs because they are really entertaining, but instead of summarizing each team every week what if you talk about the hero pools and how that affects some teams? You could make a Twitch highlights compilation too if you start the weekly schedule, could even just be monthly "Best Dividing by 0 Clips." Maybe a bi-weekly "night show" where you discuss specific teams and games, maybe have a guest or two.
hey these vids are fire keep doing you my guy
I think you should do introspective videos like the Toilet Bowl video. For example, yesterday's Valiant vs Shock match could be picked apart. Or maybe Paris vs Philly. There are just games that define why fans watch owl, so I'd love to see more videos taking closer looks at the individual matches.
I really liked 7 second summary, so i'd hope it'll come back
amit mendelevitch dividing hated it
I honestly haven't kept up with OWL this season compared to the last one and especially the first, so I would appreciate and be interested in some short weekly summary (or if that's too time consuming maybe just a top 5 plays/games of the week.) I always love watching SiR so it's bittersweet seeing it come to an end but I am looking forward to your future content :)
you got this pal, we like your content
Hi Dividing! I have been a long time fan of yours. (since SiR season 1) and I really enjoy your content. Your one of my Favorite CZcamsrs. I have some video ideas. Maybe you could do what one of my fav youtubers ATP Overwatch does. Sometimes on his twitch streams he does Tierlists, such as teams, main tanks, off tanks, and more, and then posts the stream on CZcams. I think other fans will enjoy it too! Also congrats on finally finishing.
Get the ATP collab already
eMburst wait your on atp discord right?
@@ryanngill1330 I'm a superfan my guy
eMburst me too
eMburst but not in the discord sever sadly
I did really enjoy the video you made on Miro a while back. Maybe do some more videos like that? Great content as always
Would you consider doing some videos on the history of players. Theres plenty of them to go through so you wouldnt run out of content anytime soon.
On a similar note you could go through multiple player pick ups throughout the existence of the league and analyse them.
Both of these could be quite edit intensive though so this might not be what you're looking for as far as regular content.
Good luck with whatever you choose, looking forward to watching it .
7 second summaries were so good and useful
I think a weekly summary serious might be cool for anyone who misses the weekly matches
Maybe you could do a weekly series about the Hero Pools:
Discuss potential comps and teams (playing that week) you think will benefit from those comps
Man I feel for fusions after this damn that man had it rough he had such high stonks
It was such a boston move for them to keep fusions on a 2-way contract despite him being their best player. If not for the 2 games per stage rule, I coulda seen them keeping him on as a 2-way player all season, paying peanuts, then sell him at the end.
To me, s3 of Boston can be described as: Love the players (Fusions, Chex, our lord and savior Jerry) HATE management and [redacted]
@Lucas Ramirez Vakratsas I love Myunbong and the current players of Uprising.
Boston Uprising: the Ottawa Senators of the Overwatch League
Wonder if Season 3 SiR will be easier or harder with all the stuff that's going on.
Also: Heroes in Review. A comprehensive history of each hero, from their launch to the present. Or just the ones that changed the most. Something to keep busy.
Seven second summaries are lit
also, losing crusty hurt them really badly. so much of league play is based on the coaching and losing your main coach (especially such a good one) is really rough.
GREAT VIDEO
I'm not sure how long ago this was recorded but in the avast interview with blase he said the gamsu trade was really late and gamsu didn't want to leave. It was a random trade boston made much like the note trade.
weekly summaries would be brilliant tbh
Video suggestion: Dream trade videos =where you discuss rumors about possible trades and talk about trades you would personally like to see happen. You could also do something along the lines of your Rio Redemption video(That's one of my favorites).
Tier lists would be great!
Wait, u let Boston pass this class?
I don’t know if it would be too much to make, but maybe weekly or biweekly power rankings.
Me and my lady are overwatch die hards and love the sir vids please don’t stop :)
To respond to the end question, I may have a few suggestions:
1. Bring back the "This Month in Competitive Overwatch." This could act as a platform for T2/T3, 7SS without it feeling like a pain and cover drama/roster moves all over
2. I do think you should do Valorant content in the beginning of its release. See where that goes and determine whether to continue it after a month or two
3. Stream highlights. Gotta abide to the Holy CZcams algorithm
(EDIT)
4. More of those one-off tales about orgs or players (similar to your Runaway or Miro videos). Saw someone else suggest something similar but decided to include it here as I had some ideas already commented
Nice title, and now I kinda want Mac and cheese. Thanks.
This hurts, in a deep way.
First the Red Sox, then the Patriots, then the Uprising
these last 1.5 or so years have been truly cursed for Boston sports
We just have to wait To see how the bruins collapse
DreamKazper 👏
Mouffin 👏
Boston loves em young
SIR season 2 was amazing!
Whatever you do don't leave overwatch. This community does not deserve you, but god do we need you.
Tier list, power rankings, tope tens, updates on league news
Next season
Boston uprising: Jerry and the diamonds
That shanghai dragons game wasn't uprisings fault Tbh. Colourhex the teams Zarya was ineligable to play for 2 games in which axxiom played in replacement. The 2-way contract states that they can fill in if absolutely needed and it doesn't use up any of the 2 games. Uprising thought the first 2 games wouldn't come against the 2-way games since colour couldn't actually play
SIR is finally done
It’s finally over.
I would really like to see some tier lists
I have an idea for a weekly summary video for OWL: 5 key moments in OWL (insert week here)
I really wish the trade for Fusions had gone through.
He deserves a better team and management.
That was a great serie of video, hope you will do the same a the end of this Season an why not a the World cup?
The Fusion/Asking trade untrade was heart breaking
Do you think you'll be able to do interview like french caster and game journalist Zaroide ?
Something like sss but not it sounds pretty legit my dude
We don’t Stan who he shall not be named
I wouldn’t mind weekly OWL summaries if they we’re easy for you to make
Wow.
And I thought the Dallas Fuel had the bigger dumpster-fire...
I think your comments about Gamsu leaving are misrepresentative. Gamsu looked to be the maintank for Boston. He played in the starting six during the community countdown (I know not the best representation of the real starting six but other teams did show theirs so) In interviews he said he was surprised by the trade and even a little sad about it. I think when Fearless had to go back to Korea, Shanghai looked for a maintank, chose Gamsu becasue they believed he would be easiest to poach, and Boston sold him when the money was good.
I forgot which of his videos he said this in, but he said something similar. Something like how they would get unproven players, and then sell them when they got good.
Mouffinkazper is my favorite jail
damn, season one boston was really stacked. such a shame for their fans. even he who must not be named woulda been really good if, y'know. And then to blow it all up. so sad
Ohh can we see top 10 players for every week of the overwatch league?
You should do a vid about all the metas of OWL
Imagine if they picked up a good hitscan, and kept gamsu. Chex is pretty good actually so imagine if they got like ksp or someone instead of blase they could have done really well
We'll always have season 1 :)
I just noticed how many teams have blue as their primary color
I knew Boston collapsed but holy shit did they crash. They could be mistaken for a crime scene for how much brutal fighting was going on.
Love you
there downfall began when they loss the pervert dreamcaster and coach crusty and then the management being cheap. but imagine if they had been able to keep crusty
tier list for roles(main/flex tank/dps/supports etc) or heroes plssssss
6:11 Is this information true ? Blasé said on his interview with sideshow that Gamsu was traded and he didn't even wanted to go.
It can be confirmed with HuK's post-season 2 interview, in that the Uprising were going in a different direction for Season 2 (it can go without say that it didn't really work out well once all was said and done for season 2 itself).
He probably didnt want to go to Shanghai, but he took it bc it was way better than staying with Uprising
@@burstvgc the video says he choose to go, which means he choose Shanghai.
And that's not the context. Blase was talking about how Boston just read player (Like note) without they consent
Gamsu really dodged a bullet. He went from one of the worst teams in the league to a team that won a stage championship. If he had stayed he would have probably just retired at the end of season 2 and dropped out of the league completely forgotten.
You have always wanted do something analytical. I'd love to see OWL reviews on twice with highlights and or full vod on youtube
