/owg/ - Overwatch General: Junkrat is High Skill Ceiling Edition

Why are people so against the idea of playing competitive solo? Why are you told not to do it? Why is it considered a disadvantage? I'd understand if the matchmaking made it so a group of solos can be matched against a 6 stack but generally speaking if there's a premade on one team there's an equal or similar premade on the others. Yes you're kind of dependant on who got the better premades but the same could be said if everyone was solo, you'd still be playing with 5 random teammates who might be good or bad. Not to use the cliche but you're still the constant and still should win more than you lose if you're better than your rank.

Best kit

>>164020846
Because if you stack with a person you've played with before, you know how he's going to play and expect better co-operation. If you go solo then you got 5 random people and you've no clue how they're going to play or what their main class is.

>>164020637
Oh, another hero kit rework only six~ months into the game. I guess Blizzard can't actually buff anything considered weak without feeling the need to rework one them. Sad really. First Symmetra, who was fine, just needed some number buffs and a change to her ultimate. Now Mercy, who realistically only needs charges to her ultimate, and a change to her shift.

i kinda want to buy a golden gun for ana but im afraid that blizzard will do the classic thing and nerf her to oblivion soon

I don't know, I ranked from plat to masters purely playing soloQ. Even at a 50% win rate I climb because I get more SR than I lose since this is how the system is designed - if you are performing better than people at your rank should, you gain more for a win/lose less for a loss. I gained 50 lost 20 for all of my play and 70% of my diamond games.

>>164020728
Yeah I'd like to think it was just that but I honestly rarely find myself missing healing targets unless it's a Genji or Tracer jumping and dashing all over the place. I don't DPS much but to be fair you may be right as I usually only find myself shooting at flanking enemy Genji and Tracer's and missing a lot against them, I should probably position myself closer to my team if they have flankers to avoid being in that situation, right?

>>164020929
Symmetra rework was great though, just some small teaks to her promary beam and she will be perfect

>>164021076
That wasn't very nice.

>>164021036

You get more SR at the start of the season.

Personal performance barely affects it, nor does discrepancy in average team rank. Single digit effects on SR change even for absolute extremes.

I dont think reworking characters is neccesary a bad thing

In TF2 Valve just keep adding more and more new guns to Heavy and Pyro over the years to makeup for their shortcomings when an entire rework would have been more beneficial for both of them

consider this:
heroes with situational, non damaging ultimates, like Mercy, Widowmaker and Symmetra, can get multiple charges. In Mercy's case, she gets her charges faster and only uses 1 per resurrect. (at the speed she gets 100% now, it would give her 3x charges)

objectively and factually wrong

holding six sentries is stupid, and stops her from being a smart hero capitalising on smart tactical plays to yet another reactionary one putting sentries wherever because she gets all 6 within another minute anyway.

and her new flying shield was obviously implemented without considering the effect on any other heroes, having to deal with constant, strong barriers from her AND reinhardt

BEST SHIP

>>164020846

I play on console, so I know it's not like this for PC, but solo queue competitive on console is basically SR suicide. No one uses the team chat, so coordination is limited to whatever phrases are in the game (group up on me/ult status). If you're 2000 SR or lower, you might as well not even bother because, most of the time, your teammates are more concerned with getting POTG or playing like it's a team deathmatch rather than playing the objective. If you find a team that's courteous/aware enough to keep you informed of their ult status or tells you to group up for a push, you're fortunate.

At least when you group up with friends, you know you can communicate with them.

>>164021225
Is where we are now supposed to be the start of season? Because I gain 60 lose 20-30 atm. Not even on a big streak, just 3 games in a row. Last game gave me 80 SR.

I hope we get a threeway relationship between those three with a reveal Amelie is bi. Tracer and Emily's warm love for each-other will remind her of the good times and help her snap of Talon's control.

Blizzard have a golden opportunity to do something brave and different here, I hope they don't miss it out of fear that homophobic halfwits will go after them. The official forums were a shitfest after the Tracer reveal, but they received huge praise pretty much everywhere else.

Symmetra needed at the very least a heavy rework on her ultimate since the teleporter will always be useless on anything but the first
Point

And Overwatch doesn't have a complex map design which means absolutely everyone knows how to quickly search for the teleporter

Hey guys, how's it feel knowing you got ripped off by Blizzard for an inferior copy of a f2p game that even has better character designs to boot?

Must make you feel pretty damned dumb. Or at least it should.

>>164021717
Yes Symmetra needed an alternative ultimate. Not the ability to carry all 6 of her sentries which eliminated the need to play smart to succeed.
That and the range increase just babied her. The shield is an ok addition but I don't think it's sensible given the kits of other other heroes.

>>164021267
>>164021540
But that would require some actual thought and gamedesign, something Valve hasn't been familiar with for a long time! It's all about the Steam shekels now!

It's better idea to simply nab some community-made workshop skins and slap some random attributes to it. Oh! And remove randomcrits from it for balance's sake!

Thanks again Valve for ruining something that used to be great!

IT'S BETTER THAN A HEALTH GENERATOR

It'd just be a shittier stationary Lucio, basically a soldier grenade with a permanent duration.
If it healed through walls, teamfights will get longer because now you have shit like a Symmetra on the front lines while a Bastion is camped next to the dispenser with ambient Lucio healing.
If it healed any decent amount, it would basically make any other healer worthless and secondary compared to having a mandatory Symmetra.
If Symmetra becomes a double-role that is mandatory because of how useful her healing is, then the 3-tank meta becomes just that more fucking insufferable when we are bitching enough about Ana already.

A decent static EHP boost that regenerates out of combat is better than any stupid TF2 Dispenser concept.

Now we could talk about whether the shield generator is too good or busted but a health dispenser is just flat out retarded.

If you're going to be a healer, do not criticize your team. They will not turn around if you tell them to unless they already know to turn around. The game literally has voice callouts when most healers get attacked, especially mercy. And a healing prompt on their screen for mercy.

If they can't figure out to turn around when you're being raped, just accept it. Their punishment is a loss.

this 3 tank meta is no fucking fun at all

>>164020846
because quick play shows the level of retardation you could have stacked against you. There is always that one guy that must play widowmaker on attack while contributing nothing to the team, the team loses, but the widowmaker got a card or boring POTG so feels they held up their end and keeps doing it. Meanwhile the actual control point remains a shitfest because they have 6 plus turret spam and the five actual attackers can't break it. With a team all chatting, that level of self important retardation gets removed and doesn't hurt everyone's stats.

>>164023672
Did you forget that people have developed 2 centimeters of awareness and know when a Mercy is hiding and to kill her first in a teamfight?

Hiding for rezes is pretty unviable now. It will still happen, but you still have to gimp your team by 1 player if you decide to play it safe and hide somewhere to wait for a rez. You're expecting people to live through two 5v6 fights, in a meta concentrated around tanks and survivability/builders.

Please learn how to play the game before talking.

hello friends.
i got this game as a present for myself for xmas (wouldnt have gotten anything otherwise lol) and I'm thoroughly enjoying it, my favourite is probably McRee and I was lucky enough to get a yellow skin for him.

I gotta ask though -- for Ana and Widow, is it possible to make their scope toggled instead of having to hold down right click? I play a lot of CS and have for a decade and holding down the right click really ruins my aim.

thanks in advanced, had a quick look at controls but found nothing.

I am glad Blizzard have at least shown they care about the LGBT community and are willing to be inclusive in their game on all fronts - not just in terms of racial, bodily, and political diversity, but also diverse sexual preferences.

I hope we see queer people, trans people, relationship anarchists, polyamorous partners, etc. The people who care about that sort of thing are also the people who usually care about storytelling, lore, and narrative, so its a win/win.

If he hates Reyes why not carry a picture of just him and Ana, why all three of them and especially with him right next to Reyes? Something to think about.

nerf when?

>>164030194
I'm looking forward to her nerf too. I think most people aren't complaining because it's incredibly easy to be garbage with her because of her health. So since Blizzcuck only nerfs and buffs things when the masses complain no one cares. But when you get to diamond+ and pro play she's literally a fucking beast if any decent player gets on her. Her only counters are being better at aiming a torb turret (which gets shot down in a milisecond if you're not playing with braindeads).

I constantly get queued with this Tracer main in low diamond whos next most played hero is 3 minutes. He's fucking cancer and I don't think I've ever seen him lose / not on fire.

>>164030469
Am I a shitter if I think Symmetra needs a nerf? People constantly tell me she's balanced now because she can kill things.

The way her beam works is kind of ridiculous. I think the changes to her and her range buff is fine but they need to make the way the leash works less forgiving. You can do a fucking 180 and still be attached to someone and dealing damage, and the beam can deal damage for a second or so AFTER someone has turned a corner or broken line of sight. Playing offensive flankers has been fucking hell lately.

>>164030412
She doesn't get nerfed because her high skill floor keeps most people away. There's about a 30 hour learning period on Tracer before you can actually be consistently useful with her. She's the poster girl as well, she's not getting hit unless she's seriously out of line, and right now she's only bad if someone serious is playing her.

>>164030571

I wish you retards would stop crying every time you stub your toes. D.va does not need nerfs. Ana needs the nerf on Biotic Grenade.

If your complaint is that Defense Matrix eats your ult there's a special secret technique I have for you to learn. Strap into your seats.

Are you ready?

Don't fucking shoot the Graviton Surge while she's right in front of you with Defense Matrix out.

Talk to your team (I know this is hard- but I believe in you champ) and say "Hey. I have <insert ult> help me get D.Va out of mech so we can wipe their team".

So take a deep breath, you can do it. I promise your moms boyfriend will get you your tendies if you don't shit on your floor again. Just remember- stop being fucking stupid and shooting your ult into D.vas defense matrix.

>>164030610
I actually feel the same about her. As Symmetra you just get a competent healer, hold left trigger and jump around the map. Maybe put down turrets for extra cheese. Her beam just feels so strong and playing against her is a painful experience for me as a Soldier main

- health is now 450 HP and 50 shield

Says the guy who learned nothing from the dva buffs. You buff a disruption tank's ability to sruvive and deal damage and you end up with our current situation

>>164033250
thanks. so i guess even if he ended s2 diamond it wont matter, that sucks

Who is it? I dont like animu.

Is it possible to be an aggressive widow? Maybe if we change the widow meta she'll be good

widow is better on attack then defense because she can choose how far to move up rather than get stuck and caught in a few locations

>>164034402
Mercy isn't unplayable she's just outhealed by ana

apart from widow none of them are sexualized

is 2550 good rank

>>164032839

Winston does 60 DPS with no headshots or long range options. 1 one clip his maximum damage output is 400 damage, which requires 5 seconds of constant spraying.

With Lucio around that is reduced to 48 DPS

Zen orb makes it 30 DPS or the same as meleeing someone over and over

Mercy makes it a pitiful 10 DPS.

Ana makes this damage 100% neglected and also can tank most of his clip via biotic grenade.

And then on top of that Winston's ult can't get reliable kills and actually LOWERS his range and DPS to 1.5 meters and 55 DPS (assuming no splashes to combo punches consistently).

And his ult is a giant 30% feed to the enemy team, as he can not kill anything but a SINGLE squishy without a ledge

What do you mean "aggressive" ? Widow is usually better on attack than she is on defense since as the attacking team you want to get a quick first pick and then boost in the middle of enemy lines. Your allies need to create space for you, though, and prevent the enemy Dva from sitting on your face 24/7. There are multiple ways for them to do that from forcing the enemy team to keep her around so they prevent excessive pressure to just hooking her and fucking her whenever she tries to fly towards you.

You have to be really good at widow to warrant your team playing around you that much, though.

I know she's useable, it's just that I absolutely despise playing her unless there's a friendly Pharah around.

>if you have three supports healing one person they are impossible to kill

Thanks for those amazing stats to back up why Winston should be buffed. Tanks aren't actually meant to be core damage dealers, they're meant to disrupt and protect. This meta has blinded you.

About to start my 10 promotion games. Any advices? I didnt play a long time now. Was platin last time.

>>164035015
>yuri
Nope.

If we ignore the fact it has to stay balanced as a game, why the fuck would reinhardt ever limit himself to a fucking hammer? Who's used a hammer in warfare since 1300?

>>164035067
What are you, fucking gay?

>>164022609
I don't understand why people like koth. If the enemy has the point it's practically Hanamura point A for every single map.

>>164034978
I don't touch genji with a stick, regardless. Dva does more damage than him, what's your point? You're bashing dps for not #goldchecking. Should just carry harder, maybe pick a dps, show them you're a god?

>>164035109
He can rocket boost *himself* at enemies, distance isn't a problem for him.

Also Crusader armor was designed to fight big robots made of metal that is generally bulletproof but not jet-powered-hammer-proof

>>164035042
Lucio merely existing renders Winston obsolete. Amping up he might as well kill himself.

I'm bashing DPS in general for not contributing to their literal niche, genji mains just piss me off the most because throughout the entire match they're not going for objectives or anything like that, no they're farming ult then trying to get a POTG and fuck the consequences.
