>>146913963
It's a third match that decides the winner if the first two rounds went 1:1 (or, well, 3:3). So far I've only been on payload maps, and there it works like this: a coin is flipped to decide the attacker, after which they have 60 seconds to push it to a certain point.

Junkrat buffs when?

>>146914024
you realize you don't exclusively play with people in placement matches when you're doing your placements, right?

>No one standing on the point at level 60 which means they've been playing for over 50 hours.
>Still being matched with these people.

It's because my win rate has breached 60% on the solo queue. I refuse to let it dip. I'll leave as many games as I need to Blizzard.

>>146914114
>...and why is it absolutely irrelevant in ranked as your starting ranked MMR is decided via placement matches

>>146913630
They do up to a certain point. I'd say around 80+ is when they stop mattering

is mm intentionally shit? every game the low ranks on 1 team and the high ranks on the other.

>>146912830
lmao sure alright. I was using it to make a point but if your head is really that far up your ass you can take it as a literal comparison between the two.

How about the more important comparison between Mercy and Lucio? Mercy not only outheals him but she can damage boost (albeit for not as much as Discord), she has more health, she can fly to her teammates if she gets ambushed by Winston and her ult is near-objectively one of the most powerful in the game.

Or Lucio, who is almost a free win on KOTH maps. He can only heal as fast as Zen when he uses his E but he provides healing to everyone even near him, including himself, without having to focus any energy on them. He can also speed people back to the objective, he can knock people off of edges on maps like Lijiang and Nepal, he has unreal mobility that lets him get places most of the cast can't and his ult is all but invulnerability against burst damage like Junk's ult for a few seconds.

Why would anyone pick Zenyatta over those two in his current state? He's fun and he does a lot of damage but between his lackluster ult (have fun surviving burst damage lmao), his weaker healing and his abysmal survivability he has no place in most games where anyone knows what they're doing.

Keep talking about nuance just for the sake of being a smug dick, though. I bet it wins you a lot of matches.

Explain why Blizzard shouldn't just remove Hanzo from the game.

>>146913797
Yeah, it's dumb, but I can sorta understand why they did it. I mean, it's still better than no update at all. And this first season is shorter too, so when the fall season starts, we'll have a proper gamemode up.

Soldier, shove a helix rocket down his throat, drop heal, pop back around corner and put a couple of bullets in him regardless of him trying to flee, repair or shoot you

OR

Go Genji, press E (Only if Bastion is retarded, but all Bastion players are retarded so moot point)

OR

Pharah, see Soldier but with less ability usage but more risk

OR

Have Zarya shield Rein and charge

OR

If you've just got Rein use shield to walk into a flanking route, then blindside charge him

Nobody is forcing you to play each character equally. You can learn a lot in ~5 hours per character, if you play one character from offense/defense-tank-support.

how many placement matches do I have to play?

>>146915062
I've only seen Hanzo that can headshot people while moving spinning in circles and shooting arrows randomly.

tfw 5 placement matches in and 2 losses were from truly irredeemable team mates

tfw I'll never be rank 90 even if I have reasonably competent team mates who aren't literally too dumb and Hanzo inclined to be carried

What's longest you've been on fire?
I got nearly ten minutes once.

2-6 on placements so far. Both wins were by a hair, had 2 losses by a hair, and in two games, we had people leave early on and it was basically 5v6 or 4v6 to the end. You can leave without a penalty, but...you eat the placement loss anyway. Fuck. I am prepared for MMR hell. I hope individual performance is heavily weighted overall wins and losses cause I've been on fire 60%+ every game. We'll see I guess.

I'm gonna choose Symmetra on offense in ranked guys

Holy shit I have such a problem with compulsive reloading that when I play D.VA i'm constantly trying to reload the cannons or whipping off five shots of the pistol then reloading it.

What the fuck is wrong with me.

Is it always good to have 1 mercy and 1 lucio on the same team? I've been getting rolled by teams that do this.

pharah on our team stood perfectly still in one spot on attack, 200 feet away from the battle, and shot rockets in a straight line endlessly hoping for one free kill. she never got one.

>Soldier can't carry a fucking game for shit, no matter how well you play.

Soldier 76 and Zarya are the only heores in the game that can carry a 1v6.

Clearly you're not as good at soldier as you think you are and should go back to black ops 4

Considering winning is the only thing that significantly changes your placement rank or your ranked score at all, it feels pointless playing shit like S76/Pharah/McCree when all they do is make the enemy's health squisher. Not actual game-winning heroes.

>play first placement match
>dominate, get praised by two people on my team in voice chat

Why is the occupation of a point not considered in whether its a tie or not? My team had 2/3 of the point controlled at one time, but the other team never stepped on it

Luckily we won the 50/50 but I'd be pretty upset if we had to defend

Genji is meant to harass the other team with his shurikens (which actually deal quite a lot of damage if all of them hit). If you get damaged while trying to flank, don't take that as an sign to go in guns blazing. Escape. Also deflect is really effective against snipers, Soldier 76, and McCree.

My point is that sub 50 at the end of placement means you are worse for your team than simply flipping a coin.

Statistically you are the reason you're losing, if you're sub 50. And this thread, full of people talking big, is full of sub-50s.

No. Soldier can only carry if the enemy team doesn't insist on countering my ult every time. And even if the enemy team does use 2-3 ults for me alone, it's never enough space for my team to take the wheel.

High burst damage is what carries in this game from my experience, and Soldier doesn't have that. He's just there to soften shit up for his gankers. If there's a Zenyatta on my team then that's a different story.

no one is getting past 80

you'd have to win 50 times against an enemy team ranked 79 to get to 81 and if you lost once you'd go down to 78

Highest rank = 80
Most common lowest rank = 30

Conclusion? Forced 50.

That was a really bad loss but I laughed pretty hard. And this is only day 1 of competitive.

Can you leave in the first 20 seconds before a match starts like in quick play? or will ranked give you the penalty for that?
