>>163190893
Make res radius bigger.
Let her desh in any direction without needing another player/soul to dash to.
Make damage boost and heals happen simultaneously.
Allow for decaying overheals.
Any of these would help.

Fucking how. She tanks and DPS better than winston
Blue and Orange!
Roadhog is fine, stop crying.
>>163191082
Barrier is 600 I think.

Because they have no idea what they're doing.
They simply wanted to reduce the people in platinum and gold.
So, everyone who was platinum and gold last season will get fucked hard. Even if you had one 10 matches and were the sole reason you won them.
>>163191084

Why do you purposefully write wrong numbers?

What sensitivity/doing combo you guys using
>>163191262
Sad to see that amazing render and shading quality to go to complete waste for a low tier fetish.
What's the voice line META right now? D. Va's "is this EZMODE" and Rein's "Catchphrase!" are crazy overpowered imo

>>163191350
Where am I wrong? Check the wiki if you don't believe me
Does Sombra really not have ANY pre-game banter?
How do you guys feel about D.Va's defense matrix? Is it in a good place?
>>163191519
He means Winston's barrier. That's only 600.
>>163191363
How is Ana's weapon accuracy even calculated? I usually have ~80% unscoped and 90% scoped accuracy, but the game tells me I have 10% weapon accuracy. Does it not count when you shoot teammates?
>>163191538
She has some still in the PTR I think? Basically everyone hates her
>>163191538
Weren't they added this last patch? I know there's around 20 new ones for various other heroes in the current ptr build
>>163191538
She does, but it's not live yet.
>flank Ana as Tracer
>get killed 1v1
I should just uninstall
>>163191554
It lacks counterplay. All the things that go through it she doesn't have to worry about due a combination of mobility, armor, and very high health.
>>163191593
Overbuff's accuracy stats are fucked. I get told I have <50% on Zarya because it counts the right click as 25 missed shots if you don't land it.
>>163191538
She has one line with McCree.
>"Pleasure working with you McCree. If that is your real name."
>"Don't know what you've heard, but my name's not Joel."
>>163190781
>>163191719
Ana is stupidly OP when dueling flankers.
Also don't feel bad, I get nearly killed by Mercys who actually know they have a pistol.
I love Hana.
>>163191519
>barrier is 600
>Symmetra shield is on 10 seconds cooldown
>winston DPS is 60
Are you a compulsive liar or something?
>>163191782
It's not just Overbuff, it's the actual in-game stats. I'm pretty sure Overbuff just lifts them from the game.
>>163191818
>>163191878
I solokilled a Soldier as Mercy once, still don't know how the fuck it happened. QP is really fun sometimes
>>163191932
>Winston barrier is 600
>DPS is 60
I thought these things were true.
>>163191590
That just makes my point even more apparent.
>>163191932
Fair deuce. But still lower than Winston's and has instacooldown
>>163191980
Her projectiles are really forgiving and it does a fuckload of damage. Tracers who get caught in a hallway are doomed.
Jamison Fawkes!
Diamond has to be the most selfish rank in this game. No one wants to fill necessary roles and just tries to 1v6 for EPIC POTMs.
I've had better team work and comps in fucking plat
>tfw no good D.Va feet focused fanart
>>163192123
That's adorable, anon!I think you forgot I only Fawkespost on the weekends, but that's still okay!
>>163192082
Winston is the worst tank in the game by a huge margin and needs buffs. He's not a good class to compare anything to.
How to fix Winston:
Give him 150 ammo
Lower his leap cooldown to four seconds
Lower barrier cooldown to 8 seconds
Do you think that D.Va had to see her fellow gamers die against the Kaiju omnic?

Didn't you post on the previous thread also?
Reminder that you will never experience the true Overwatch experience with toggle open mics with 5 friends of yours with clear defined roles whom all know how to fucking spawn wait and make every single fight an actual 6v6.
>>163192714
I wish there was more evidence (or actual evidence) for this because I would support it. It's rather endearing.
>>163192289
At the moment he only serves as a hard counter for snipers and genji.
But for actually tanking or comparing his DPS to other tanks he is quite lacking.
Only reason he is used in triple tank is for his ability to contest for KOTH
>>163192714
Ana and Rein are only good friends
FRIENDS

>>163192734Yeah, but that was still pretty early where I am. Once I wake up on Monday I stop until Saturday.
>>163192820
where do you think Pharah got her sense for justice?
What did she mean by this?
>>163192820
It's not lewding, it's embracing two older people finding love and comfort in each other. It's basically the purest ship in existence.

Can I just the competitive feel without the stress.
>>163192816
Tracer, Genji, Dva, and even soldier all do the support bully/harass thing better than he does.
Dva can actually disrupt a group due to DM being infinitely better than bubble.
Dva can make soldier's life hell why Winston gets shit on or ignored by soldier.
Dva can just fly away if Hog lands the hook.
Dva shits on reaper.
Dva has two lives.
Dva does twice as much damage.
Dva nuke is infinitely better than goin' bananas.
Even if Dva gets her health cut to 500 she will still be better than Winston in every single way.
Is forced 50% prevalent in competitive? Not gonna bother if it is
>>163192839

>symmetra STILL a support hero
Right, supporting by melting tanks and offensive characters. Coupled with a good torb she turns into Shiva the destroyer. I am become death.
Seriously though, she's a lot of fun to play but I think she's a defense character now.
anybody need to grind for that oni skin?

did it the first day for eu and a few days later for na
(30 games each not 15)
hots is great! GREAT!
How the fuck do I climb out of silver guys. I know the meta. I know the maps. I know how to play certain heroes. I get good stats and medals. I try to be nice to my team. But it doesn't help. I swear everyone in this range must be fucking 12 or playing the game for the first time. It's fucking depressing. They all wanna play attackers and useless heroes. They never swap heroes. They leave. They run in alone and die. And no matter how hard I try in the placement matches I get ranked low again. I will never experience what it's like to play a good comp match. Really thinking about buying a new copy so I can get a decent rank and get the fuck out of this hell hole.
I'm on the verge of smashing my fucking screen here. Pls help
Am I doing good so far /owg/?

Only 15 for oni genji and spray.

Do you defend fart posters too?
>>163193645

>>Increase projectile speed by 33%
This one is probably the most important tbqh
Those things are so fucking slow, seems like he's throwing them with his hands instead of a grenade launcher.
>>163194509

>>163194227
Did that Goku guy yell in chat a lot? I grouped with a Goku and he was trolling so hard I couldn't tell if it was ironically or unironically. We ended up winning in the end though.
>>163194749
When you realise Lucio is the most OP hero.
>>163194749
I think 3000 is a decent cut off, but 3400 is best to avoid plat shitters who lucked out during placements. 3400 because some high ranked people end up slipping to around here if they don't play comp for too long.

You stop shooting. Most D.Va's will lower it. That's when you shoot.
>>163194749
See >>163194846.
Alternatively, just requires a lot of game sense and gaming experience (especially if said experience is playing similar games). You can have crazy good mechanical skill that landed you in GM and still not know such balancing rules like better offence means defence needs to be weaker. You can also be an amazing support stuck in Plat because your performance is so reliant on your randomly chosen teammates.
Casters have great game sense and they can judge players playing on the highest level even though they're Gold shitters. Blizzard staff don't play this game on the highest level yet they're the ones making balancing decisions.

Reposting from old ded thread
I had a game the other day on route 66 and everything was okay even if we were losing I was still having fun.
But this fucking soldier he watched them push the payload and win while he was just shooting like 10 feet away.
So I ask them wtf are you doing
"I got their healers"
I tell him he should've contested instead of watching them win and then
"Hey man it's just quick play"
I tell him oh okay and the next game we switched sides so I go attack bastion and he gets pissy over it. We could not leave the spawn room so he rage quits. I laugh, change to Pharah, and win the game with potg.
Felt fucking glorious.

>>163194749
Any rank. I am a Masters shitter, but I think people even lower like diamonds and plats should have a voice because they play the game too, and Blizzard needs to balance in a way that keeps the game fun for the majority rather than the cream of the crop since this is how they will keep making money.

How to buff Winston:
- Tesla cannon deals 1.6x damage to shields
-Tesla Cannon and Primal Rage punches ignore armor
- barrier Cooldown starts immediately after activating
- Activating primal rage does omnidirectional knock back and 40 damage while casting.
- Damage from jetpack jump can reach a cap of 75 depending on height and distance traveled
>>163196139
>Damage is unreliable
Explain please
When will they fix the fucking emotes in this game?
>>163196353
excuse me
>>163196173
>its another "buff every single ability this hero has" episode
Worked well with Zen.
>>163196225
Unless you can follow up his bulk damage it's doing more harm then good feeding ult charge to their healers
>>163196225
He can shred into crowds all day but his damage relies on direct impacts and c4/trap combos which boils down to 1v1 play by that point. Unless the enemy team is retarded they aren't going to stand by and watch him and his damage is mitigated by shielding heroes that provide 3 or 4 seconds of safety for healing.

Genjis sword is fucked by nature.

>>163197456
Roadhog and Mei easily beat her 1v1
Tracer, Pharah, Genji and Lucio can just run away
Mcree wins if he gets stun off
Ana sleep darts
Soldier and Reaper can win if their aim isn't shit
Winston and Rein will out tank her
Sym v. Sym is whoever gets microwave off first
Pretty much just Zenn, snipers and Mercy that get fucked up by her
>>163197314
2CP has been a staple of many shooters since TF1. The only problem is that no game has done it competitively before. Only now people are starting to realize how shitty the game mode is for esports and hardcore players.
Though I don't have a problem with them in QP. They shouldn't be in competitive though.

That's probably the biggest bullshit about them handling it.

Winston hasn't been touched since the start of the game, and the massive amount of changes to all the other characters has significantly make him less and less viable.
And even most of the nerfs he got originally were because "muh double Winston meta" that was perform hero stacking was barred.
As his own tank, he is only even remotely viable on KOTH for contesting ability, but now with 76 buffs, dva buffs, reaper still being his hard counter, sym completely throwing the balance on its head in tank-centric meta, ana still being crazy good, he just isn't that useful.
Especially when shields generator being active and any character with armor is essentially immune to tickle gun, Sombras being able to lock down flanking heals / hacking to make Winston a free 20% ult boost, Winston needs his set polished up and buffed to compete.
Being the "genji and sniper hard counter" doesn't mean anything anymore when genji is being displaced by 76 and snipers are few and far between on teams
>>163197868
At least in comp you play both sides. In QP if you end up in attack you just lose unless the enemy team is dumb as fuck, Hanamura in particular is fucking terrible.

>Ana and zenyatta shit on her

She's not bad, just not good at 1v1s. She shines when flanking healers during team fights tho
Which made me go from 2300 to 3100 after being stuck for a while there
Symmetra used to give everyone 50 shield.
It was wildly overpowered, so they nerfed it to 25.
Now she can give everyone 75 shields.
How does this logic follow?
Why did kaplan approve this
>>163198103
She could do it on demand and not as an Ult.
How the fuck is this even a question?
>>163198103
Because it's an ult now.
One that charges too fucking fast.
>>163198103
The logic is that the 50 shields were on her E ability and had infinite range, dummy.
>>163198103
She needs to work for her shield generator and it has range, although a big one
And enemies can destroy it
It's fine
>>163198095
just to think a few weeks ago i would be reported for picking a troll hero
Got to sat I was happy to see the "Boop" and "Dia de los Muertos" sprays in the stream yesterday
>>163198201
She has one of the fastest charging ults in the game.
All you have to do is survive one push to give everyone 75 shields.
>>163198298
Good stuff man. Time for the symmetra reinasance
>no matter how quickly you destroy my turrets as symmetra, I still pull 15-25% ult charge in the first 5 seconds of the game by placing two outside of each offensive doorway
Think they'll nerf this?
>>163197187
And no news on how shit sombra is or how unbalanced the meta is
No we need news on voice lines for a shield generator
>>163198426
Well, technically it DOES have something to do with balance, m8
>>163198381
>turrrets give no ult charge to the people who destroy it

I hate this change more and more.
There was a ~30 MB patch right now.

MERCY BUFFS INCOMING
I just played my 6th 2CP game in a row, going 0-6.
Ask me anything before I kill myself
>>163198579
They added a new character. Send me $100 if you want me to tell you how to unlock him.
>>163191262
Im mad this gets me hard, fuck you
>>163198426
Wouldn't expect that kind of posts from the writer. Although I don't think Kaplan has posted at all today. Who knows maybe they'll make another dev video but I wouldn't expect much.
I think Sombra is not that bad after all, she's just a mislabeled Support hero.
She can take care of squishies and weakened enemies, and she can cripple strong enemies in critical situations.
Don't get me wrong, she really needs a buff, but she's not the absolute shit, unusable hero that this thread had me believe.
>>163198492
She earns her ult ridiculously fast. I couple the turrets with pre-fired orbs of death for max charge.
i just want the yeti ;_;
>its yet another draw on hanamura
Just rework the fucking map already.
I just realized I never play flankers. I never even ended up picking up Sombra because of it. I don't really play Tracer, Genji, or Reaper.
Anyone have ideas for best flanker to start with, or tips for flanking in general or specific characters that took you a while to find out?
>>163199001
Creeper is a good start
>>163198995
What's the problem with it?
>>163199001
Do you usually play hitscan? Use Tracer.
If not, go Genji.
>>163198781
Blizzard wants you to play her as this hacker flanker but she is best if she sticks with the group, hacks packs along the way and disables tanks.
>>163198781
Shed be better if they reduced or removed the delay for hacking/attacking out of stealth
>>163191818
>mercy's pistol does a surprising amount of damage
>>163198781
How about they remove the fucking rediculous "LOOK GUYS I'M HERE" shout she does when she leaves invisibility. Why do people have to ruin a good thing?
First time competitive player here. I've lost my first three placement matches because I've had teams full of retards (I had four golds as FUCKING REINHARDT).
How do you vets deal with horrible teams? Does it badly affect what rating I will get? Cheers.
>>163199406
Maybe rightclick a bit more as Rein?
>>163199406
placement matches mattered fuckall if you had played a previous season, dno how it is if this is your first ranked season
i don't "deal" with horrible teams in any particular way, i just accept that the game is out of my control and eat the loss. no point getting frustrated or tilted. that will carry over to next games
>>163199150
Point B favours defenders too much and there are no good flanks.
Even if you get past the choke you need to teamwipe the enemy with a combo or they'll be coming one by one with tanks and Mei.
Symmetra rework made this map even worse.

It is really close to xmas desu
I wouldn't expect any balance related stuff till like the 3rd of januar, Im guessing early jan we'll get the dev response on balance and when Oasis is coming and whatnot
>>163199468
Yeah I was doing that at first but the team mates weren't actually killing anyone. Sucks
>>163199682
that really is how i deal with it. it helps that i have always all the chats muted so other people can't influence me by being insufferable
>>163199193
Being just ahead or on the flanks of your team is best I find, then swoop in and disable and focus
Wrecked a few Symmetras too, if you have EMP up you can wipe her out (it drops her to 50% health essentially) or at the least take out the generator and sweep away her turrets, not to mention you can scout for he nest super fast invisible and teleport to save time / escape if you start getting microwaved
>>163199406
I won 7 of my placement matches, drew 1, and lost 2(1 we got swept, 1 we had a leaver), and had 3 gold average in each game
Got fucking placed in gold at 2288
I don't understand at all how placement works. I got 6 draws, 2 wins and 2 loses last season and ranked plat out the gate at 2822
>>163199793
>Tfw emp does absolutely nothing to sym's turrets and buildings

What exactly does it do?
>>163199193
>she is best if she sticks with the group, hacks packs along the way and disables tanks.
That's pretty much how I've been playing her: stay with the group, hack medpacks, hack Zaryas and D.Vas from behind Reinhardt's shield, also sometimes I manage to hack a Tracer or Genji who are busy harassing our healer, things like that.
>>163199307
>>163199359
Yeah, both of those things are pretty fucking retarded. It's not like her gun does enough damage to insta-kill someone if you catch them off guard.
I mean, sure, let her have an uncloaking sound or something, but get rid of ¿ME EXTRAÑASTE?

Where can I upload a 640Mb image?
So I'm a nublet currently spamming QP and waiting for the right opprotunity to pounce and do my placements. Right now in QP I typically pair with goldies and today even paired with a plat. However I noticed that if I leave a game or two I immediatley get paired with striaght up bronzies. So I was just wondering if people have a decent grip on hidden QP MMR and how it impacts where you start your placements at. I figure right now its a good plan to wait until I start getting consistently paired with plat players and occasionally some diamond, then if I do reasonably well in placements I'll have a shot at diamond. Does that seem about correct? Near as I can tell currently if you level an acct to 30 and immediatley do placements, if you go perfect you'll likely get plat, if you do well but not perfect you'll get gold, if you do mediocre you'll get silver, and if you do mediocre but have been leaving QP games you'll get bronze.

repeat until you git gud
I'm trying to figure out here who exactly even wanted Symmetra to ever be viable in the first place
Like yes what we need here is for a hero that requires literally 0 mechanical skill to be good, that's what makes for engaging gameplay.
>>163200097
Post more alternate armors
>>163200837
Move your mouse
>>163200681
>"I would like my opinions to remain un-scrutinized on 4cheng"
Sounds dumb, but I think Torb is actually pretty fuckin good. Has anyone else had success with him?
>>163200930
I want all heros to be good. Not all of them have to be meta 6's material but good enough to where they aren't unworkable.
Winston takes zero mechanical skill but you will die immediately if you're a fucktard and just jump into people like a dumbass. He still needs buffs despite this.
>>163201012
His changes made him much more playable, and with symmetras changes his defensive capabilities are unreal.
>>163201012
He's not awful but when three tanks covered in shields is speedboosting at you his turret is worthless.
>>163200985
Pretty sure you have seen it already, but I think it's neat.
>>163200985
>>163201012
Real talk Torb is actually good now
The hammer changes are great. The armour change is just a quality of life improvement

Atleast she's fun as fuck now

sure, her new E is more interesting but it's still not that fun

Reduce your sensitivity and move your mouse more it helped me so much

Not great on his own but a good team player, the changes to how scrap is generated really helped him a lot; you make the whole team more resilient and sometimes you have a sort of emergency self heal by giving yourself the armor.
Also, it's not particularly efficient, but I find it fun when I manage to finish off someone with the hammer.
>>163201475
This gave me an idea.

Thank you anon. Any tips of how to hold mouse? Only recently I've found that you shouldn't move only wrist but rather your arm. Any tips for mouse grip and so on?
>>163201481
To me it's more fun dodging enemy fire like crazy while microwaving them. Feels like symmetra's on a rodeo.
Placing sentries in new places and it working also feels great, I've actually killed people at the beggining of the match by putting 6 turrets somewhere I know they're gonna walk through and all but their healer will just pass through
I also find point and clicking boring as fuck, but to each their own I guess
>>163201591
>>163200930
All heroes should be good why the fuck does one have to be unplayable because you can't handle it? Playing as Symmetra you got extreme hate and was not allowed to play past first point. She needed to be changed. Because of how little people saw her. Nobody knew how to deal with her especially now she can survive a bit more. I was able to dominate even before the patch this just makes it more simpler. Of course I be happy if they just made her shield give back health depending on the amount of damage taken.

>>163201726
this an fps, aiming is the most core mechanic of this game. heroes like winston and symmetra that barely require it are a design failure
you can jump around like crazy dodging enemy fire with any other dps hero too but on top of that you also need to aim your shots at the same time making for a more engaging gameplay experience
>>163202215
>season 3 never

>>163202346
Don't ask me I want all heroes to be good/decent but I am not the one in charge. I was hoping they just give him a better shield with the ability to eat peanut butter that gives him a damage reduction buff for a bit.
are drawfags welcome here
>>163202361
The game has slow as molasses characters so aiming isnt even hard in this game and thus they put no aim, shit range characters, which get stomped by people who know how to aim and have superior range.
So you're practically getting angry at inferior characters.
Now, if it was quake or unreal tournament, having good aim and no auto aim weapons means good design, as players move fast as fuck all the time
>>163202346
Because it would be too much fun anon
>>163202058
Kapkan is amazing, you can't do good with his traps because you are prey, not a predator
>>163202609
Yes love drawings.
Draw more cute gremling dvas (and maybe other characters with gremlin dva faces)
>>163202361
winston is hard and rewarding to play right because you can destroy the enemy backlines if you're doing well. the challenge is figuring out the correct positions and correct timing. the problem with symmetra is that she can mostly 1v1 every hero in the game as long as the opposite hero misses a shot or is taken by surprise.

>>163198325
Now we just need her to get a buff to something, anything. Shes just not viable enough currently but I love using her.
>>163201192
Torb is actually good in tank meta because his turret has an ungodly range.
Zarya cant reach it, hog cant reach it, dva has to fly out of position and almost always loses her mech for it because she cant destroy the turret and DM at the same time
Rein only affects it if he has his shield up, and it should always be your top priority in this meta to pop their shield before they pop yours
>tfw you bully a mercy all match and there's nothing they can do about it
>>163202361
Aiming means shit anyways since most of it gets blocked/eaten by shields. Remove that garbage then we can talk about bringing in aiming for every hero.
>>163202767
>>163202734
ive not drawn mei yet but i really like all the characters a lot. gremlin dva is just my favorite because of that cute stupid dorito dusted face.
it'd be fun to draw other gremlins tho

Wonder how the lantern would look on first person
HAHAHAHAH RANKED IS A JOKE. A FUCKING JOKE.
I duoqueued with a friend, we did our placements.
We won 8. We lost 2. He placed 3300, I placed 2580. We were in the same fucking matches, I was having really good performance by abusing the new Symmetra (shit like: 14/0 + gold medals). But it placed us
SO
FUCKING
FAR
APART
All because it takes 90% of its weight from <previous season rank>.
You play well? Doesn't matter. You win against opponents that are all Diamonds (some of our placement matches was literally 10 Diamonds + us)? Doesn't matter. You placed badly last season? Enjoy placing badly this season. And every. Season. Yet. To. Come.
I think we can't even duo queue anymore now with the SR difference being so large.
A JOKE. A SAD, PATHETIC JOKE OF A SYSTEM.

>>163203149
Thing is I can't climb without my friend.
He's the positive one who uses voice comms and makes the team function. I'm the salty one, but I stayed silent and focused throughout the placements even though it was hard.
Without him I'll have those dreaded Plat matches where nobody speaks and nobody would listen anyway. Where Junkrat is instapick and no matter what I pick, we'll either be without a tank or a healer. I will tilt so hard and drop SR without his positive attitude I just know it.

I just wish she wasn't so team-dependent or an easy kill.

>>163204356
What? Source. Why the fuck
>>163204253
Who's that yellow glowing character?
>>163204356
I'm bored /owg/.
Let's play a game.
Make any skill in the game sound as trivial as possible.
I'll start:
>D.va materializes digital panels in front of her.
How to fix Sombra:
>decrease spray radius
>Increase range
>decrease time to act after coming out of stealth
Now you can fight at Medium range and actually use stealth to surprise people.
>>163204356
Pharah needs a small health buff because she's just way too fragile with 76 and Soldier existing. Maybe faster air movement instead or something.
Junkrat needs faster projectiles.
Bastion needs a complete rework because no numerical boost will ever fix him.
Reaper could maybe ignore armor or something but he's mostly fine.
>>163204356
>buff Bastion, Pharah, Junkrat and Reaper to match them
DELET THIS
What stats should a Plat McCree have?
>>163203496
so basically you're correctly ranked
>>163204356
Yes please.
Are Defence characters the hated middle children of Overwatch?
>Hanzo
>Bastion
>Mei
>Junkrat's alright but everyone hates him
>Widowmains
>People still think Torb should be played like Engineer and hate it when he's picked but he's actually decent
In a game where the attacking side has the advantage, is there even a place for defenders?
>>163204636
I like this, her gun is shit purely because of the spread spreading too fast
>>163204356don't get my hopes up like that anon
>>163204636
Also make it so the hack isn't interrupted the second you lose sight of the target. It makes it pretty much useless when you could just attack them straight on anyway
>>163204636
Well like I've already said, reduce/remove stealth delay on actions could work too
>>163204016
>play rein
>team doesnt stick together and rather go full COD with muh epic solo frags from the sides and then dying

Literally every game.
Better practice your aim in QP or outright hang yourself boyo.
I feel like CP maps have been a problem for a long time, but people don't seem to make a big deal about how broken they are
Do you think blizz even knows about the problem?
>>163204356
>Buff dps to kill tanks
>Now dps can delete 200 health heroes
>Screws over everyone but tanks
Oh I can't wait for when they screw it up like this
Ok guys, I went and fact checked this shit about Metzen and Petras November anon keeps spouting. I also looked into some articles. It checks out.
But the reason I did it, other than try to prove him wrong, was to see if it leads anywhere. What it does mean is this:
In 2015 the lore was barely written and riddled with inconsistencies that were being rewritten and removed, like ages for example, but in no interview where Metzen goes on about "muh Soldier 76" was it mentioned that he needed more work, it's pretty much written from the perspective that the lore revolves around him.
So Petras and Metzen develop the character, Soldier 76, and it's those two that say there is a gay character already when hardly any lore is developed. And when you combine the fact that Metzen was shoehorning how much he wanted Overwatch to be progressive and reflect the world we live in well...
The best bet is it was going to and still is 76. This DOES NOT mean he is with Reaper in anyway. There is nothing anywhere to prove that or suggest it.
Now will Chu rewrite this? From the way he talked in Blizzcon no. From the way they bullshit in the kotaku article no. But this is all assuming that the story they claimed was coming out soon was First Strike. But who knows what the hell Chu was thinking when he canned it.
>>163204356
I think it would massacre the game, but fuck it, I'd watch Rome burn.
Really though, just delete Ana.
>>163205026
what's broken
>>163205026
Here's their response
>>163202991
Yes, you can group with your friend; you're only 800 SR apart, not 1000.
Your initial placement is "fuzzy", meaning there's a lot of uncertainty around it. Therefore, if you keep playing and winning, you will rocket upwards as the MMR-bot determines it made a mistake placing you low. Just keep playing.
>>163191554
it's too powerful because of it's cooldown
It's the ultimate anti-ult machine
You try to bait it out so you don't get your ult deleted, but when you try and bait it out, you have no way of knowing if she is out of bar.
Even if she is, it regenerates enough to stop an ult like mei's or zarya's in less than 2 seconds.
>>163205026
Pretty much everyone at higher ranks complains about them, but higher ranks are a small percentage of the game's populace, so there's not much of an outcry.
Recently map drafts were banned so you can't weasel your way out of 2CP as easily in tournaments, that caused a louder response and Blizzard responded with >>163205184.
>teammate picks Symmetra on attack
>another teammate locks Genji and doesn't switch against triple tank
Haha what an absolutely EPIC meme!
>>163191783
>Jesse Joel

>>163205026
>>163205184
>They change it so each tick on the point counts as a point
>3 each 6 total
Probably the best and simplest change those maps need. Doesn't stop them being boring as shit to play but there's no stopping that
>>163205356
B-but Shadowburn successfully goes against triple tank!
>>163204753
Mei sees a lot of tournament use especially on KotH and defence. Widow and Hanzo are often used for quick picks attacking 2CP maps.
>>163205462
No. When McCree was revealed, one of the devs fumbled his name and called him Joel McCree. They had to clear it up afterward. Sombra's line is just a jokey reference to their screw up.
>>163205478
I'd either increase defender spawn times if the point is being captured, or increase defender spawn times in increments per third captured.
More ticks would be nice too though.
>>163204735
No, not really. I got fucked over in S1 and 2 placements by playing 90% supports, so it consistently placed me way lower than everyone else.
In S2 I won 7 games playing mainly Lucio and Tanks and it placed me at fucking 2395.
I know all of the game strats but my mechanical aim is bad; still I don't think I deserve to be queued with players that don't care about team comp, grouping, saving ults, etc. that basically just play the game in automatic zombie mode.
These S3 placements were a breath of fresh fucking air cause we actually had people talk and know what to do it was a different game altogether. I dont wanna SoloQ into shitter haven again.
>>163205618
The problem with that is in lower ranks it's easier for the defenders to win, while the further up you go it becomes easier for the attackers.

At least the selfish assholes are competent in diamond. You can check the best of your team. Glue yourself to him and the match becomes easier.
In platinum-gold you have the bastion and hanzo tards that are also selfish and incompetent

>>163207108
Winston needs his shield reverted to 1000 HP, and honestly could use a cooldown adjustment so that it begins cooling down on use instead of when the shield breaks.
If that was done he would be fine.
>>163206716

Rework him into heavy from TF2. Continuous, good damage at close to medium ranges but not insta-melt tier unless at shotgun distance. Slow movement while shooting. Can drop healthkits or heal himself.

And that's how I got muted for the fourth time. I know it's just a game, but how are people so fucking stupid and bad at this game? How many people on the enemy team have to die before our Rein realizes that he should be moving in? Why stand at the choke with your shield up doing nothing and give them a chance to respawn and rejoin their team? What opportunity was this fucker looking for? Why did I have to have him on our team?

Blizzard really needs to drop this whole "Do not look beyond the veil" style with their Overwatch esports stuff
Its very Riot-Esque
Admit some of the maps are bad for competitive, take em out of the pool for a while, let people play on the good shit while you work on a solution
Why can nobody in the industry look at their work objectively and say "Yeah its not good enough, we're working on it, hang with us" rather than peppering it constantly with "It looks problematic but it creates a lot of tense and exciting moments for us which is what we want as gamers!"
You're making a fucking game, get humble and work on it

Its a 300 hp target pumping out 1/3rd of her hp a second, and it doesnt miss.
Placed properly it prevents her doing her degenerate back line ganking of your supports and shit.

>>163209286
Yeah, it's odd. Even if a company has a solid esports title it's like they don't want to understand why it's successful. Take CS for instance... Most of that game was pretty poor from a competitive perspective. Only demolition worked for competitive and once the scene gravitated fully to Match Rounds a lot of the demolition maps became unplayable. Most weapons sucked. But enough of that game was brilliant and that's why people kept playing it for more than a decade even though Valve tried to kill it with Steam and Source which totally missed the point. When de_dust was one of the first maps they showed for GO I thought they'd missed the mark again, but thankfully they managed to not completely fuck it up.
Nowadays it's like companies are scared to make some designer start crying over their map not being played or their asset not being used so they're simply forcing you to eat the content. And then they rebalance the game every other month because some character is played too much or too little and the fuckheads at Reddit rather whine for a patch than learn to play around it...

That's a good choice - you can heal up, his HP pool is forgiving and you learn both how to position so you don't get focused down and spot when people are out of position so you can punish them with your hook.

>>163211270
>>163211424
Biotic Grenade + ana's ridiculous single target healing turns fights into complete stalls and nobody dies
Until ana gets a grenade on the enemy and shuts off their healing suddenly its a huge swing
Its as broken used defensively as it is offensively

>>163211409
Mercy is pure, leave her alone
>>163211745
They are not wrong, you are a fucking tank, if people are dying because you are off chasing people with your hammer, it is partially your fault.
>>163203010
you should've taken ana from him. ana is way too important for someone like him to have her.

He has a special one for Mercy.

Fuck this Mei shit dude. For once common sense has beaten my OCPD completionism. I don't give a fuck about those missing sprays. Nothing's worth this shit.
>>163211765
>lmao symmetra isn't OP just do it perfect just negate symmetra from across the map with perfectly landed widowmaker headshots it's that easy just do it perfect just preemptively stop Ana from firing her sleeper dart just read her mind and do it perfect it's not over powered see look at these things people can avoid and do avoid far easier than a near-hitscan ultimate smasher that takes one button press but they're the same even though they're far more fragile, slower, and require a greater opportunity to use haha I love eating shit and sucking cocks
Fuck you, retard.
>>163204753
Hanzo, Mei, Widow, Junk, torb are all good but situational. Widow should be switched with Sombra to offense, otherwise I think they're fine.
God help Bastion, and his robot warrior soul.
>>163211883
Not sure if it was Surefore or IDDQD but one of them tends to switch to McCree if they need a DPS boost because apparently he has "more damage potential" than 76

>>163211173
that explains why symmetra is seeing so much tournament play amirite?
Is there a way to aim, on pc, with a keyboard rather than a mouse?
I have a strange setup and can't use a mouse right now.
>>163212332
so pro players aren't pro enough to max damage on mccree so switch of to ezpz 76 and tanks?

>>163212649
Tournament players are easily the biggest retards I've ever seen play. Bad example to use, dimwit.
>>163211913
Well I am tanking, thats exactly my point. Im legit wondering where the fuck our dps is since they're not behind my shield
>>163207986
>Tire has the ability to be released from control where it will continue to travel in a straight line and detonate on the first thing it impacts.
I like this because I think the loss of control of your character makes it the worst ult in the game by far. Giving you the ability to back out of your ult and regain control of junkrat would be the best buff.
>>163198075
>Winston hasn't been touched since the start of the game
He was the meta on koh but with DVA getting buffed through the ceiling Winston is now out of business
>>163212749
>Tournament players are easily the biggest retards I've ever seen play.
>>163212649
She is seeing tourney play though. Still only on defense but Symmetra + torb defenses are doing great in high level play and tourney play. Just not being played as much as "le three tank" meta
>>163210858
>>163208301
It's very shameful, and I hate hackers like you wouldn't believe, but try your best to play around them.
I watch a lot of koreans play, and they have aimbotters in almost every game. What I really like though, is that they just play around them. the tanks are especially good at dealing with an aimbotter, rein, hog, and dva can all negate their perfect aim. Outplaying cheaters who have had their aiming ability artificially inflated will surely turn you into a much better player.
It's not acceptable, but practicing in an unfair battlefield will make your game stronger. Don't forget to report all of them, even though it probably doesn't matter.
>>163212649
She just needs to settle into the meta. Ana didn't become huge until quite a while after launch. 9/10 pro players want to play something tried and tested than gamble on something risky and unusual.
Symmetra's DPS potential is crazy, her defence potential is even crazier. At a guess over time she will replace Mei in defence line ups. While Mei's ult is incredibly good, and the wall is very useful, a near permanent HP advantage is a big big deal in team fights (particularly when teams usually have the same set ups), and her turrets definitely have their place. Tournament matches are almost always based entirely on team fights, they will have little time or opportunity to look for and destroy a shield generator, and particularly on a map like Temple of Anubis where it can be placed somewhere the enemy will have to come through your entire team to get to it, it'll be a very popular choice
>>163212749
sym is only OP when the DPS players in your silver games can't kill her while walks directly at them and chases them down
Daily reminder Mercy is for sexual and sexual ONLY. She has no other use.

>>163214153
that WM and hanzo are in high diamond for a reason
stop crying and carry if you don't like it
healer? ana sleeps and her ult literally determine the game
see a rein charging? sleep
see a booster genji dragon blade? sleep
see a phara carrying? kill
NO EXCUSES SIR
always stay in the mindset of "what could I, I and only me, have done better?"
if you stick with this moto and practice you will reach GM without a need to get carried like you want to right now
synergy and adapting (to both team and enemy) also counts as those solo Q skills
>>163214421
Same. Dodging shit with the slow movement of this game is a kinda impressive
>>163194839

>>163214716
Ult and fire towards their spawn at the start of a match for mccree
How the fuck did you get the roadhog one though, I've done it multiple times but it never registers it as them reloading
Will Junkrat ever be useful men?
>>163214367
In what bracket does Junkrat do well against Soldier outside of spamming a chokepoint?
Gold? Silver?
Soldier can kill Junkrat much more reliably than Junk can kill Soldier. Junkrat's character model puts him at a disadvantage since it's rather large and wide. Plus you need to land direct hits or direct hit + proximity mine toss to kill him. Soldier is way more mobile and sprint to avoid getting bombarded by grenades, while Junkrat is practically a sitting duck if soldier gets the drop on him. Best you can do is throw prox mine out and try to get away but the trajectory is so predictable that you can get tracked mid-air and just die before you even touch the ground again.
It's a horrible match-up.
>>163214554
Reading comprehension yo.
There was the WM and Hanzo, not denting Reinhardts shield, while the boosted Bastion shred through our Zarya and Reinhardt, even when the shield broke and I slept the Bastion, we lacked the damage to burn him because those 2 sniper shitters couldnt land a damn hit on a stationary target.
But please... Do go on and tell me more about your gold adventures and how you could have done so much better.

>>163214421
I really enjoy holding M1 + movement keys + spacebar.
>tfw it only works on tards
>>163195382
Its true. My stats are mostly GM status on lucio but I'm stuck at 2300
Just got to diamond solo queue winning 4 games in a row after my friends cost my 60 rating earlier today.
Feels so fucking good to reach it on my own without them. As a fucking Support main nontheless!
They are good guys but the most toxic pieces of shit I've ever played with.
Overwatch is also the first game I really got into playing, not just fucking around casually (Sniper-duelling AWPs with scout or M249 comes to mind.) and they are so used to me being worse than them that they keep saying that my rank is just because of luck and them carrying me.
Jokes on them, got a higher rank last and this season, hell now I'm nearly 500 rank better than the next guy!
Gods I will love to rub their faces into this.
I can look them in the eye and tell them that I'm far better than them. Fucking yes.
Just had to brag to someone about this.
Feels so fucking good.
>inb4 I bet you are just playing much more than they are!
Nope, they all have at least 10 hours more than I do!
First in my circle of friends to reach platinum last season, first (hopefully only one) to reach diamond this season, Master Season 4 here I go!

Stop trying to justify being terrible. You're shit.

It's particularly ebin with nanoboost.

Of course. Their dipshit team ignored my turret for most of the entire round and only twice did I have to go and hammer it
>Nanoboost DVA

I only ever gained rank when I played alone at 2am and I only played 3 or 4 games max at that time. Took a while to get some points when they lose me about 60 whenever we play together nearly every evening.

My accuracy is terrible unless I do 30 minutes of Anabots every day and it's boring and I could play maybe 2 actual games in that time so I don't bother.
Some days I am physiologically terrible at the game (and everything else) and I don't know why.
I don't really understand the difference between bronze and GM level gameplay aside from mechanical skill; I didn't even understand the most basic of ult usage for 6 months until watching Skyline's video on it.
I make constant terrible decisions.
I don't understand what makes one team win over the other most of the time so I don't know how to adapt when we're losing.
My internet connection is bad and I sometimes rubberband around and projectiles are difficult to use because aiming them at 40 ms and 200 ms is completely different and it can change between the two without warning.
Probably more.
>>163215238
You honestly dont think u can make it to masters before the seasons over anon? Why even brag, you went up like what? One tier? Stupid healslut.
>>163218132
It's very rare for me to encounter another healslut.
Three of my friends regularly play overwatch with me and I'm the only healslut. Always the healslut.
They all bitch and moan if they even have to touch a healer. But they also get so... aggressive if I don't heal them good enough.
Every DPS has the potential to be a dom, but you need dedication to be a healslut!
>>163218267

>>163217269
I'm terrible at fps games I don't know how to get better. Also I can't take spergs on mics yelling at me. And no high equipment(high hz monitor, mouse, keyboard, pc) will give skill.
>>163218456
I will certainly try, but I still have my friends who cost me some rank every day that I have to recover and for the next two weeks I won't have as much time to play by myself.
I'm happy as long as there is some progress, especially if that progress puts me further ahead of my friends. They deserve all my laughter for every single rank point I surpass them by!
Slow and steady wins the race!Please clap...
>>163218604
Right you are!
But i can have both. I can laugh in their face because I'm better and they will KNOW that they actually cost me rank instead of 'carrying' me.
They will realise that I actually don't mind losing rank playing with them because I can just win it back and more by myself!
Ultimate humiliation after years of not bothering to even try and surpass them.
Years of them laughing whenever I joked about being better than them.
Isn't that the absolute humiliation?
You have your dedicated healslut, but deep inside you know that your healslut is actually better than you and is kind of patronising you?

D.va chasing me across the map, 76 targeting me, McCree targeting me, another Pharah to keep me busy etc. etc.
It's really annoying and takes the fun out of playing her

Ok what happens if I already have Overwatch and want to "upgrade" to the Origins edition. I heard they just charge you the difference, is that true? right now is on sale at 40$ exactly so how the fuck does that works?

Assuming they're fighting on a flat, featureless plain then I would say Soldier will win 10/10 times because of the speed of Junk's projectiles and his wider hitbox.
I feel like that doesn't take into account well that you're almost never fighting on open ground. Positioning is important, map is important, are we on the first stretch of Watchpoint, the second point on Volskaya, or the last stretch of Hollywood? Who has to advance against the other to win? As much as pubs like to think it is, this game isn't just deathmatch. Junkrat on defense has the advantage that you have to come to him through his hail of bullshit or lose no matter how advantageous your pick is against him. There are plenty of places a Junkrat can set up that will make it hell for Soldier to advance through to get to him in the first place, and Junkrat only needs two hits or a hit + mine combo which isn't hard to execute at all since Junkrat is almost always shooting. Plus Junkrat can initiate the fight without ever seeing the Soldier by zoning areas that soldier must advance through to obtain line of sight to attack Junkrat. He can zone further with his steel trap, which people will just say "Jump it" or "Shoot it", but its presence in the fight means you have to be aware of it the entire time or else risk entering it and dying swiftly, and destroying it only gives a warning to Junkrat who gets an idea of your position (Or if the fight is in the open, shooting the mine is shots not spent shooting Junkrat). Soldier has superior mobility but can't shoot while sprinting, meaning he isn't accomplishing anything until he starts moving at a slower, easier to predict rate of speed.
I'm not calling Junkrat pro-pick meta breaker, but I also feel like it's extremely simplistic when people just say "Just shoot Junkrat he sucks" when this game isn't just everyone standing across from each other and shooting until dead.
I'm sure I'll just get t. bronze for effortposting but whatever.
