Crossfade:
- Aura reverted to 30m

Heal Song:
- New passive aspect: Volume Control. Aura is now dynamic based on range. For every one meter moved to or from Lucio, there is a 2% increase or decrease in healing with 15m as a baseline.
Example: At 30m, healing is reduced by 30%. At 15m, healing is at the current live version of healing. At 0m, healing is increased by 30% from 15m.

Speed Song:
- When active, gives Lucio 30% more speed while wall riding.

Wall Ride:
- Removed speed burst after jumping off a wall
- Removed passive +30% speed while wall riding

There, I fixed the PTR Lucio.
>>
>>171407026
That's overly complicated than it needs to be

They could just buff his ptr range to 20 and do the trick, would make sense to match his ult like the live version

Alright niggas. Haven't been here for ages. Like 8 months.

What the fuck has changed? Any new heroes/maps? Any upcoming ones?

Has the game gotten worse or is it still kicking?
>>
>>171406014
Pretty much what we can both agree on is that updates are too infrequent and it's caused the story to become dull and the community to drive into various directions and solidify themselves in their headcanon hideouts to the point where if something contradicts it they throw a tantrum. It bad on both spectrums. The silver lining in this though is that Chu took a lot of time in the GDC presentation to point all of this out and apologize for it and then explained how this whole mess happened. I give him credit for that.

Also you're right, he did say all heroes where main characters but I think he was referring more so to the fact that each character should feel like they could star in their own game which he does repeat again in the GDC talk. But that's just my assumption since he has said that consistently throughout.

And I mean if you want to look at our conversation is basically is a lore discussion. We're discussing how the lore will be built. If you want my opinion on what the next comic will be about it will definitely be Mei and not because of that stupid leak bullshit. It's because Chu mentioned it in the GDC talk, dare I say, even hinted at it.

Sombra's playable now, Oasis and Capture the Flag got added in, and Ana still hasn't been properly nerfed.

>>171407739
I don't know, I think Chu apologized about the small things, but his speech about story "seeds" kinda makes me think this will only continue in the future. He seems to almost enjoy seeing crazy theories being spun. I will start believing him once I see that he has started to bring out more lore at a faster pace, like he promised.

But yeah, Mei will most likely be next, but I wonder why, she already have a journal, which I count as media content (although sparse). The fact that we are still stuck on origin stories does annoy me, I just wish they could be tied in somehow to the current stories like they did with Sombra. My hope is that the Mei thing will push the Recall plot forward. Why? Because one of the fundamentals of a story is to ask "Why is it happening now?" and the answer to that is the recall, which so far has shown no signs of having any impact.

I have enjoyed debating with you and I appreciate you for being so understanding. But I don't think that I can see us talking about stuff that would not cross over into crazy theories. I appreciate it, but I will come again once we have our next lore update. Hoping that is soon.

What about that new robot character? I saw it trending on youtube a while back.
>>
>>171407712
We have now an arcade mode that rewards more lootboxes. 3 new maps (1 is for arcade only), new game mode. We have sombra now, and we will be getting Orisa next week. Sombra was weak at first, but is now looking decent. Orisa looks decent as well.

Despite complainers the meta is now as balanced as it has ever been. There is nothing that can absolutely wreck your team without a counter, the problem is now though that because of great healing the game is very tanky and slow. However the balance still seems to be going forward nicely.
>>
>>171408348
Orisa? She's not in the game yet, but she's in the PTR so she'll probably be added soon.
>>
>>171407712
Ana's still ruining the game. Roadhog and S76 got buffed. Reaper sits in a corner and cries. D.va back to gutter trash because Geoff said so. Chokenwalde and Oasis were added. Orisa is coming. Sombra: lel.

Chu mentioned in the GDC talk that Mei was up there with the research team to research something top secret for Overwatch and the team was simply forgotten about after cyro-freeze due to the fallout of Overwatch. Mei isn't just fixing environmental issues Chu mentioned she's found some correlations between changes in the environment and whatever she was researching at the eco-point and she's the only living member of that team that knows what that research was based on. That sounds pretty relevant to the entire story to me. If you want I can link you to the part where Chu talks about it in detail.

This is legit the thing that pisses me off the most. They made all this back story, all this history, and they do absolutely wank with it.

Like what the fuck is going on in the present? Where did the character go after the fucking war?

I'd understand if they didn't do a fucking story, but what the fuck is the point of letting people guess shit.

I left after 2 months because updates were so fucking slow too. Like they announce a new map or character, and then like 2 months later we finally get them.

No it's not. It's literally just a graph with a line whose slope is 2.

>>
>>171408938
I don't know.

If I am being mean, its that they used the story to draw in people who are not usually attracted to this kind of game because of the lack of a narrative, constantly baiting so that those people keep playing the game.

If I am being nice, its being they tried to deliver a story, but between not having a real budget and time (no in house comic book artists and long time to make stuff) and Metzen leaving it has thrown several wrenches in their plans and now they are trying to recover it.

Right but if they pick up her story, obviously its going to take place after the 9 year sleep, not before. I can definitely see a comic based on her waking up from cryo-sleep or slightly afterwards so it takes place in current time.

I'm just saying her team being forgotten because Overwatch was imploding doesn't make any sense because there's a four year gap where they were frozen and Overwatch was still around. If they had moved it to maybe six years before the present date I could see that but right now there's several years where somebody at Overwatch could've remembered there was a team stranded in Antarctica.

Did you noticed all the The Thing references involving Mei and the ecopoint? I don't think its a stretch to assume they are copying that kind of situation. The research team in that movie was also caught in a storm and was designed to stay off of radio contact for years. They were lucky to get a message out every few month which is why the horror element in the movie was so nerve racking. Seeing as that's the case, it wouldn't be odd if Overwatch HQ didn't hear back from a desolate eco-point for multiple years. In fact, it would be kind of neat if it turns out there are other ecopoints that are still active, doing their research none the wiser that Overwatch fell apart.

You can play your favorite heroes, but why do retarded shit like solo ult as reaper and kill just one guy out in the middle of nowhere on the map? Play Widowmaker, but stop rapid firing everywhere.

A combination of that and also the general lack of lore. Remember this pic? People thought it was Reyes and they got angry when Chu said it wasn't. The reason being this was the only picture that he was shown as being heroic. People realized with this headcanon popped that they knew shit about the lore and they are afraid that Reyes will turn out to be just a generic villain, instead of the gay man they have headcanoned him to be.

So yes, they are afraid their headcanons will not be real but also that no story will be delivered.

Here's one that is semi reasonable. Don't look into this person's tumblr further if you hate tumblr.

The thing is that I fill most of my games anyway so I wouldn't see a lot of playtime on the hero I chose, so I decided to get it for a hero I liked instead. I did intend to get the Orisa one as I've been playing her on the ptr for ~10 hours but she got delayed and I am a fucking retard.

I'm GOOD on certain heroes, but I don't like playing them. The only reason I do is because I have to pick tank/support or whatever. The heroes I genuinely like I never get to play. I thought widowmaker was one of them but boy am I fucking wrong

of course they can. they're people too. anyone would have bias/preferences.

But they are paid professionals, not 16 y/o teen girls. If you're a teen fangirl fanfiction and fawn over your ship all you like. But you're a LEAD writer, paid, supposedly professional.

I really hate it. I wouldn't like even *my* ship to become canon. At all.

Some things are just so much better when left to fan speculation. In fact, it's what makes shit like fanart and fanfiction and whatnot so "magical". When you implement every single thing saying "this is exactly how it is", they're left with less flexibility and imagination.

And mostly it's-- They'd rather focus on some ship out of the blue rather than actual more world building and story and whatnot. I think that's what angers me most.

Seriously, the two types of people who were happy about shipping were those who shipped it and those who love hating on other ships. That said it's only two voice lines right now, so nothing too big. I am just wary because this is Blizzard and once writers start putting in their personal preferences they don't stop.

But yeah, I really think we could wish for a better writer. I am keeping my expectations low now, if they get proven wrong then great, if I am right, I lose nothing.

>I stopped reading.
I promise you I have seen a lot worse. But the general gist was that the person although being obsessed with the characters was feeling burnt out because of little there is and that they seem to be running in circles with the lore.

When did he mention something and not follow through? Honestly.

Said skins were going to tie into the lore. They did.
Said lore updates are going to try and be pushed out faster. They've started to pick up.
Said he was going to fix the lore inconsistencies. So far it seems he's either fixed or addressed them at the very least.

What did he not follow through with yet or is not in the process of following through with yet?

I just can't think of any motive that could justify Reaper killing good people like Winston and Tracer without it being a bit forced or having Reaper be tricked. Has more to do with writing quality rather than delivering.

Also the "Binary" comic was right on schedule and we are still waiting for a short. He hasn't picked up the pace of the lore just yet. But that's something to determine at a future date.

I mean, Overwatch could really easily do a comic every two weeks, there are enough stories for that
But lead writer would really need to push for that, this is not really profitable.

Chu isn't in charge of bug fixes. All he can do is bitch about it and hope the dev team gets to it eventually. Who really knows.

>>171417137
Well, he didn't actually kill them did he? He just attempted. From that perspective that creates room for doubt. You know squeeze in explanations for his actions. Same with the questions in Old Soldiers. And then you have the bio saying he's been "Reaper" ghosting around battlefields for decades. But all of that aside you have to realize that the theme of Overwatch is to be a feel good story that inspires and gives characters second chances. From that angle, to expect Reaper not to end up as some situational, tragic villain is setting yourself up to be disappointed. I can't help but be reminded of the Ocelot fans in MGS that expected him to be this ruthless villain that loved killing and torture even though MGS4 proved that all to be a ploy. And then when MGSV confirmed it they started throwing a fit saying Kojima retconed MGS1 and MGS2 when he never actually did. It's the same situation.

That's great and all you fucktards but you'd have even more damage/contribution if you weren't playing against your fucking counters.

There is attempt and then there is succeeding. How you honestly not noticed the very large story cues that Reaper is super over powered?

The way to the first point got fixed on the PTR and now you can go through the castle door after cap for a while. It's already fixed, unlike your attitude.

You are legitimately the worst kind of person, the kind that just emulates what the high level meta is without understanding it.

Unless you're in fucking grandmasters and everyones playing extremely optimized, the meta barely matters as much as playing what you're good at. If your tracking is awful but you can flick decently, Ply McCree. If your gamesense is off the wall play Winston. I see too many times where people absolutely refuse to switch despite performing poorly, especially considering the enemy teams comp, but are stubborn because "muh meta"

What you said and also her being by far the easiest healer.
Ana's ult requires you to know which teammate of you will profit the most from it.
Lucio's and Zen's timing is important.
Mercy players usually hit Q by reflex on 3x -5x dead mates. It's a complete no-brainer. The worst of them pocket their friends only with rezzes and heals.

You're both right. You should aim to become comfortable with a meta hero because they're better and you'll always do better if you're comfortable with a meta hero than a non meta pick.

To be fair.

The meta exists for a reason. It's optimal. No matter which way you look at it, the pros play the way they do because that's the best way to do it. BUT, just because something isn't optimal doesn't mean it isn't viable. You can get very very far with off meta, niche, or just interesting picks. The way I see it is that it's EASIER to climb by going for the meta, but not IMPOSSIBLE to climb if you play outside it. It seems like you two are taking the extremes of either side.

At a low mmr, the meta can be replicated with a degree of success, but that degree of success may be much higher than if everyone picked dps and one tank. That doesn't mean 5 dps and a tank can't win a game, but eventually you're going to reach a level where, no matter how good those players are, they will suffer as they lack the basic building blocks a team needs.

Inversely, I'd rather have a competent team that knows what they play, even if it can be outside the meta, than a team that plays very rigidly without knowing why or how. I myself play pretty within the meta by going 2/2/2 where I can and looking at which heroes compliment eachother (e.g. zarya/winston, at which point you'll want an ana and lucio, etc) and build off from there. Is that probably the best way on paper? Yeah. But if the people I play with only have 15 minutes on those heroes then am I going to force that team comp? Hell no.

There's a bit of a grey area here that I think you're both overlooking. Hopefully you both enjoy your games anyway.

Exactly if the team broke from the meta and went reaper to counter the winston that kept shitting on their healers, the game would have been very different.

I see you reached the end of constructive discussion with your post, going for ad hominem. That is fine my friend, I'm already in upper diamond ranks, away from the dregs, the residue, the bottom 86%.

So what? The meta just werks. It is like a random walk in a simulation. Watch which heroes lead to succession and which fail.

People only argue against the meta as soon as it stops working for them.

Who even thinks like that? If you are good enough to play better, you pick what you want. And if you are worse, you don't even care what "pros" pick.

Even if that is your profile, his limited healing radius is only so because punishes DPS shitters that constantly overextend and die.

Of course Blizzard's wording in the patch is more diplomatic, they would never admit they force people to be good teammates for once and actually stick around their healer.

Sucks that dumbasses will now expect him to orbit them and hop around teammates like a douche. We already had a healer like this, she disappeared into irrelevance Mercy

This will teach people not to overextend and stick. with. the. team. If you're lucio and you tell your team to backup or follow-up so they can get healed or boosted, and they overextend, I'm gonna tell them off.

They also need to make the AOE circle visible to non lucio players so they can stop being hard-headed.

Unless the enemy team uses a Zarya ult to force my team to stay in it, they all always run out of it for reasons I have never been able to guess.

I 100% agree.
If they wanted to make it so people are incentivized to stick close to Lucio / Lucio to stick with the team, they should have made it so the farther you are from a Lucio the less healing you get.

Giving Lucio better mobility and aggressive abilities is completely fucking inconsistent with the idea of needing to be right next to your team.

Alright am I just a fucking scrub or was Bastion's damage reduction fucking broken.

Idk if PC already got the patch that fixed it but on consoles it's still at ridiculous levels. You can't OHKO a hooked Bastion who was in turret form. I was Zarya with some charge lasering Bastion got him super low before he transformed and started healing. Ran around in a circle and I expended my entire ammo clip, Bastion is self healing the entire time. When I go to reload he's at full health. He literally outhealed my damage. I don't even know what the answer is other than massive burst damage which is difficult to get on him when they pack Reins and Mercy around him.

why is it that 90% of this games player base are video game tacticians that explode in rage and thirst for mountain dew when someone picks a hero that could be even slightly suboptimal?

I've been playing Junkrat pretty much every game, even on koth and attack. I'll switch if I feel like I'm doing poorly(which honestly isn't very often) or if they have a Pharah and/or Zayra. I have 61% win at ~2.8k mmr and I just have to leave team voice and ignore text otherwise everyone will be screaming at me.

People do realize this is a video game right? Is this happening because the majority of this game's player base played league of legends? What's happening?

the lucio changes arent a part of the orisa patch so you dont need to worry, itll be a while before that patch is up for live, probably like april
and hopefully they listen to all the pro lucios saying the radius is too small now, theyve been a lot more receptive lately which is cool
>>
>>171432965

Because most of the time they're insta-locking a shit hero rather than picking an off-choice to complement the team. A Widow can be a great choice for a team set up for it but if the rest of the team is working together to form a good comp and you pick something off-meta that'll sandbag the whole comp people are gonna get upset. At least in competitive.

For example your team sets up for a dive on attack and you pick Torb. You're kinda the dick there. If you want to play a solo shooter then do so. There's even a 1v1 mode. "IT'S JUST A VIDEO GAME BRO" only goes so far in a team focused shooter.

As someone who has most of their time on Lucio and basically became a straight Lucio main after D.Va's nerf......

I don't mind it.

I mean, I'll have to play it to actually form a solid opinion, but I've always stuck near the team anyway, as any good Lucio should. I like the radius marker, I like the boop boost, I like the projectile speed. The speed increase encourages wall riding, which every Lucio who isn't Stanky needs to get better at anyway. And the healing's up by 50%? Fuck Ana at this point.

What did we really lose? Distance? Like I said, if you aren't on top of the group in the first place when doing boosts and Sound Barriers, you aren't doing it right. Seems ok to me.

It's the eventual result of making kits and weapons tied to characters, with a balance system tied to switching heroes, but people wanting to ONLY play the hero they like, but still wanting to win.

It was a disaster from the getgo.

You should.
Reading the notes and actually experiencing them are quite different. My initial thoughts were exactly like yours, but it changed after just an hour of game time.

I don't like Rein. He does not speak to me and is unappealing, so I will never use him. I use Heroes I like only. If I gave to front line, I will pick Zarya or Hog whether you like it or not.

This. Some people I know: Instalock Pharah, instalock Ana, expect everyone else to build the 2/2/2 comp around them, loudly complain if they don't ("Torbjorn REALLY?!" - while on defense mind you,) and freak the fuck out if there isn't a Reinhardt (which they will avoid like a Riptire the whole game anyway.)

While you aren't wrong, it's too much of a nerf to heroes that rely on diving and movement during teamfights. It seems pretty ridiculous that Lucio can stand on the point and potentially not be in range to heal another teammate on the point. this change really, really fucks flankers and promotes the cancer that is tank meta

Good points. Maybe this was their way of having someone else be the main healer and then maybe you pick Lucio to speed pocket somebody. But in my experience, Ana was always the must have and Lucio was lucky to be #2 behind Mercy or even Zenyatta.

There is a limit to his healing, btw. And soloing Bastion is generally a bad idea anyway, 1v1 he has an edge if he aims well but the second it's 1v2 against him he melts in a second.

That's the aim. Blizzard is trying to make Speedboost less of a mandatory. They realize how op speedboost as an ability is now, and they would remove it from the game entirely if they could.

Sure it's a massive problem for an attacking team in assault maps, but it evens out in KotH because both teams are basically neutered now.

there is something wrong with my "hidden" MMR

I do QP, I play vs 4200+ rated players. I do my placement, I get thrown into a match vs top 500 players, 4300 rated players. I just had my FIFTH placement match in a row vs 4k+ players, I'm the only one doing placement.

what do I do?
>>
>>171434440
I literally pray to god that it never happens. because so far most games I've lost is because of stacked dps that don't switch despite counters. I like playing roadhog and reinhardt, but since it's so burdening to play them I can barely climb because I don't want to be burdened constantly.

>>171433962

There's nothing wrong with having heroes you dislike just know how to play things other than one hero.

I try to play Zenny any chance I get. But I can also play Lucio/Ana. If we need DPS I can reliably play Tracer/Soldier and flex onto Reaper/Pharah if it's called for. And if we need tanks I'm a good Roadhog/Zarya, decent D.va and can play Rein/Winston if I have a team that supports me.

I love McCree and Genji is cool but don't feel good enough to play them. Don't like Sombra and Bastion/Mercy is kinda boring so I don't play those. But I still have enough of a repertoire to be of use in any situation.

I can't imagine someone who comes to Overwatch and says I'm only going to ever play Genji.

Three DPS is damn near an automatic cancer comp at this point. They will always shift the blame, they will always demand healing no matter what stupid strat they're using, they will always gloat about medals even when they got less than 15 elims and barely touched the point.

I mean if you've got a 76, you're in good shape, and after that it's kind of open based on skill. But that third DPS slot leaves it wide open for Pro Genjis, Pro Widows, "Trying to Get Good With Her" Tracers, "I Need Even More Healing Than Genji Even Though I'm Alone in the Fucking Sky" Pharahs, and "I'm Not a Thrower, I Just Play One in Competitive" Sombras. And McCree ..... fuck McCree.

I find Zarya is more of an enabler tank anyway. You shouldn't be looking for charge so much as looking for openings. There's nothing more valuable to a good Genji or Winston than a bubble and it can be the thing that keeps your healers alive. You'll know if you're placing good bubbles.
>>
>>171434840
> bigger problems to worry about

Maybe for Rein, but Widow is DVa's bitch
>>
>>171434493
I guess thats true. I just figured maybe that was the best stat to tell if i was doing decent or not. I ask though because i always hear about how Zarya is so strong and can carry teams etc etc. But I never feel like I am carrying a team to victory. Hell usually im not even gold in damage or elims. So I thought maybe I was doing something wrong.

Triple DPS is actually meta it's just that typically the people who insta-lock DPS can't carry. And contrary to what one might think DPS carries hard in this game. I basically play Zen 90% of the time to make up for this.

It's kinda weird how they keep fucking with the characters that don't really need it.

Hog and Lucio got weird half buffs despite already being insta-locks much of the time. Bastion got a huge fucking lift for no real reason out of nowhere.

Meanwhile characters like Torb and Winston sit off to the side deemed useless by most of the community

And idk what their logic with Sombra has been. Ever patch reduces the cooldown of like one move and that's all they do to her.

Even for the tank meta, this isn't much of a boost. It's like you said, 10m is fucking puny. A Winston with a Zarya bubble would jump in and totally break that apart. 10m also means everyone being clumped so painfully close together means that every single Pharah rocket, Junk bomb and scatter arrow is gonna hit multiple targets at the same time. Yeah, you'll be getting Amp it up+Biotic Nade+Ana's shots for 200+ HPS, but you also just wasted your single skill for moving your fat tanks out of the big clump of death.

Triple/quad tank is gonna be quite terrible on KotH, but they'll probably be all over the offensive teams of assault maps.

Ohhh. Maybe i am playing her wrong. I mean I do throw barriers on flanking genjis, flying pharahs, or on people using ults. Also on people caught in rein shoulder charges, roadhog hooks, and the like. But I feel like alot of barriers go to my teams Rein (or other tanks) since usually that gives a pretty good charge.

all I can do is sit there, do my best and fend off flankers because my life doesn't matter until they need a res so they complain that I couldn't kill a genji on my own.

If nothing else it's interesting how Overwatch evolves. At launch McCree was on every team and now I see him maybe once a day. Reaper was the same way when beyblade meta was a thing. Pharah used to rarely be a thing and now I feel like I see her all over.

About the only constant is Genji shitters. They've never gone away even in triple tank meta.

If they just removed Lucio as a character outright, what would happen to the game as a whole?

That's definitely a part of it. Zarya generally thrives in comps who want to go in hard which is why characters like Winston and Genji are prime targets. It's just a balancing act of defensive and offensive bubbling. There will definitely be some shitty times where you wasted a bubble just hoping for some charge and then had it on cooldown when someone needed your help.

Idk how /owg/ feels about them but Your Overwatch had decent Zarya vids.

As a Lucio main, I can't say I like most of the changes to lucio.

The shooting is great now, but wall riding doesn't feel as fluid anymore, it's pretty hard to do a lot of the cool stuff I'm usually able to pull off because of the increased speed + the temp boost you get when jumping from a wall.

The aoe of his speed/healing is way too small, but the amount of healing being done seems alright.

My main gripe is just the way wall riding feels now.

Like I try jumping from a wall to a pole/tree to jump over to another wall and it's just lolnope fly right by it. It's just that with a lot of wall jumping
>>
>>171436751

It's not a thrown game if it's won you child-like retard.
>>
>>171436878
Blizzard seems to think that people use wall riding to get places and not to climb

It's ironic that I thought the Ana nerfs were completely fair (save for her lack of regen maybe,) because I thought it made her more challenging, but not impossible, to play effectively.

And then my own main gets screwed with in a similar fashion. I usually had no idea how far my AOE was so I stuck near people in general, and I get aggressive with my gun, so I can't see this messing with my usual play all THAT much. Still, 10 meters sounds pretty small, in a game that already has massive penalties for staying in a group too long.

>My main gripe is just the way wall riding feels now.
>Like I try jumping from a wall to a pole/tree to jump over to another wall and it's just lolnope fly right by it. It's just that with a lot of wall jumping
This.
Wallride is useful for chaining jump-offs between different angled nearby walls so that you can CLIMB.
This new change makes it way harder to do that, which btw wouldn't even solve the real problem if it was reverted because of the new pathetic range. Climb on top of even the shortest thing and now everyone is out of your song aura. Congratz.

A curt way to put it:
Old Lucio was vertical . New Lucio is horizontal.

Good luck hitting the fastest heroes that can teleport / double jump / turn invisible with your 6-round peashooter.

>>use skill grenade and headshot/fan for free kill
Good luck taking the time to stop and aim for their heads in the middle of battle before they readjust and use their abilities to get away. Also not every hero dies in one headshot.

>>can plink pharah out of the sky
Yeah if you both are completely still.

>>winston can't kill you before you kill him
The leaping gorilla with a constant damaging beam and barrier? Yeah alright.

>>your skill grenade can interrupt rein charge
Yeah don't move to the side and let him charge right past you a mile away, stop him right in front of you so he can crush you up close and personal in a couple whacks.

They're building new Lucio in a way that isn't support it's weird.

Bipolar like every season. I always get placed high Gold low Plat. Easily fight my way out pf Gold into Plat. And then you can never get higher. I've hit 2800 multiple times and gotten knocked back into the 25/26 area. Hit 2900 last night. I'm back at 2700.

I got a really low starting SR, but I've only lost one game since the first ten games, so I'm hopeful I'll get back up to my old diamond rank!

>>171438230
Its rough anon, I know! Just keep trying. I found going support helps.

>>171438305
I had a really bad last season, and since rank apparently includes your QP(Which I never play because No Limits is funner) and last season, it stuck me down at 1500 to start with.

>>171438535
Ouch. I was 2/8 last season so I gave up when I saw my teams always not caring. But it feels like this season is my season! So at best I could say was keep trying.
>>
>>171438396
Don't even get me started on that map.

There's nothing fun about sitting behind a dozen barriers, on either side. Dive comps and other active comps are far more fun and fast-paced than jerking off in one spot for the entire game, and nothing's more infuriating than having to shatter ten barriers, two damage reductions, and Ana tossing Jarate everywhere just to cap one stupid point.

Just today my team was the underdog and I ended up soloing a Mercy so hard they quit. It was very funny.

They fucked over matchmaking without telling anyone because too many people were bitching about being silver/gold.

We're basically back to where things were, where SR is massively bloated and plat/diamond are the "average."

Efi's mother's maiden name is Gutierrez. she was a genius researcher, and her daughter was already showing incredible intellect. she was at work when the omnic attacked Dorado, and in the chaos she couldnt find her family. She assumed both her husband and Daughter died in the Omnic crisis and fled to numbani to marry a dark chocolate scientist and give all their money to the spoiled nigglet to make her robots. only her first husbands remains were located, and although she knows its unlikely she holds a shred of hope that her daughter Sofia is somewhere out there.
Probably from her parents or something.

Is anyone else flabbergasted at the way nobody seems to have figured out some Battle of Cannae pincer maneuver shit?

There's that pro team that sandwiches with Widow/Tracer but every game I see and play is fucking trench warfare. Everyone sits behind their shield and waits for the other side to fall.

Even just having a Bastion+Rein+Mercy on one side and circling around them with the rest of your DPS seems so easy. It's generally how I finish Reins with Tracer.

What kinda Omega Male motherfucker do you have to be to let your team tell you what to do?

The new heal hits for 19 hp per second. Standing next to someone under attack from a dps wont do shit

However, the amped heal heals for about 162 over 3 seconds, so its worth getting in close to amp teammates in trouble

Lucio is no longer a wall riding aura whore, now his job is to move like sanic around the map and deliver impact healing or speed boosts to people who need it most, and being an annoying as fuck flanker outside of that

He gets from the eichenwalde def spawn to the first point in 5.5 seconds. That means if you kill him you have about a 10 second window to cap before hes contesting again.

That aint regular support shit, thats real nigga shit

Now ana and mercy are the dedicated healers, zen lucio and sym are utility supports

It can't be worse than the forever guy that just flame the whole team and only knows words like "noob", "wtf" and "report" in english, even if people can't understand english they know these words and they tilt.
People are usually speaking their native language and then you're fucked if you can't understand. You get a lack of communication on competitive because of that and people are tilting and shitting on others in their native language, which make things worse necause at this state you know they'll probably attempt to throw the game. Sometimes they shit on you just because of your accent/homeland.
