[B]What is Overwatch?[/B]
[QUOTE]Overwatch is a multiplayer first-person shooter video game developed and published by Blizzard Entertainment. It was released in May 2016 for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.
Overwatch puts players into two teams of six, with each player selecting one of several pre-defined hero characters with unique movement, attributes, and skills; these heroes are divided into four classes: Offense, Defense, Tank, and Support. Players on a team work together to secure and defend control points on a map and/or escort a payload across the map in a limited amount of time. Players gain cosmetic rewards that do not affect gameplay, such as characters skins and victory poses, as they continue to play in matches. The game was launched with casual play, and competitive matchmaking was added in June 2016. Blizzard states that all Overwatch updates will remain free, with the only additional cost to players is through microtransactions to earn additional cosmetic rewards. The Overwatch thread on the Facepunch Forums is renowned for its massive shitpost quantity. Does anybody even read this bit?

junkrat needs a buff.
Junkrat is the only defense hero who isn't total shit.
I've absolutely fallen in love with Junkrat during comp as he's turned into my most played her for comp, that and me getting 64 elims as him on Lijiang
No, we already decided that Bastion was best girl.

so does widow
and soldier
Has Blizzard made the new skins able to be purchased with gold yet?
From the last thread:
[QUOTE=Ax3l;50890204]I understand why they would do this, but it's really stupid that they didn't just tie this to the max reached rank instead.[/QUOTE]
They said they're open to listening to feedback on the PTR regarding the party restrictions. If people really don't like it they'll change it to be less aggressive. You can suggest they tie to to max rank on their forums or something. However, idk if it's such a good idea, if somebody gets a lucky streak then they're locked out of playing with their lower-skilled friends.
D.Va needs a buff too please.
what does ~500 points roughly translate to in current rankings?
[QUOTE=Shadaez;50890361]what does ~500 points roughly translate to in current rankings?[/QUOTE]
10 points
[QUOTE=Shadaez;50890361]what does ~500 points roughly translate to in current rankings?[/QUOTE]
We've gone from a 1-100 scale to a 1-5,000 Scale.
So about 10 levels.

D. Va must be removed from my life
Did anyone else's battle.net start pre-loading tomorrows update?

Imagine not being able to fight D.Va in the Discord Orb meta.

Let's not take someone's disliking of D.Va personally, Mr. D.Va avatar.
I like Hanzo's wolf skins, but I wish I could keep the dragons and normal ult line.
Dev vlog of upcoming Season 2 changes.

Tiers are now back in the game, hurray. My complaint about numbers are gone as the numbers have less impact as you're grouped up in tiers now.
Basically they standardize back to how SC2 and HoTS does its' ranking system, if you aren't familiar with them. It's basically the same as League.
Bronze here I come!
Got the game yesterday and I really like it! I've also managed to get PotG in my first match somehow.

Literally easiest hero in the game to kill
