[QUOTE=Killer monkey;51326647]Its one of the strongest parts of her kit, so I doubt it[/QUOTE] Why yes it is.
[QUOTE=Captain;51326564]But those combos [i]are[/i] counterable through the use of barriers and defensive ultimates. None of those work against EMP because it destroys all barriers and silences to prevent counter ults. [/QUOTE] Mei's ult isn't blocked by barriers other than zarya's, and if zarya shields herself and a team mate to avoid getting fucked by your DPS ult, then she won't have enough shield left to escape mei's ult. She should ABSOLUTELY not have a wind-up much longer than the current one. She only has 200hp and she has to be literally in the center of the team to pop it off and have it do anything. A louder sound queue might be better, but that's it.
[QUOTE=Killer monkey;51326647]Its one of the strongest parts of her kit, so I doubt it[/QUOTE] It was also one of the greatest perks of the pyro class. Makes you think.

None of those work against EMP because it destroys all barriers and silences to prevent counter ults. [editline]7th November 2016[/editline] The only problem I have with EMP is that it's instant cast. If it had the same kind of audio cues and warm ups like Sound Barrier or Self-Destruct (It doesn't have to have the exact timing, but you get what I mean), I would be perfectly fine with it doing everything else it does. Because then there's some kind of way of stopping it through the use of stuns or focus fire.[/QUOTE] In the same vein that Defensive utimates counter offensive ones such as transendence counters dragon blade, EMP clearly exists to counter defensive ones And once agin if you have no [B][U]effective[/U][/B] follow up to capatalize then the ult is wasted

Its pretty simple actually, two people just press Q at the same time.
you have no idea how hard it is to even have two people agree to press Q at the same time and then they have to actually succeed
[QUOTE=SLBros.;51327035]you have no idea how hard it is to even have two people agree to press Q at the same time and then they have to actually succeed[/QUOTE] You could plug in your mic and ask them.
EMP isn't that powerful. It lets everybody still shoot just like they normally do so you're not really heavily impacting enemy dps. Using it offensively isn't going to be very effective at all. The only thing it really does that's strong is ult denial, which a good chunk of the roster can do with their [I]standard[/I] abilities, not even using their ults. Hell, since Sombra's a flanker with stealth she's probably not going to be targeted by the enemy ults in the first place, so she'll often be able to hack them with her standard ability anyway, not even needing to ult. It's only going to be really more useful than her standard hack against multiple ults at once. So it's pretty much in the same vein as Rez; instant cast, useful for when the enemy is throwing all their eggs in one basket and using a bunch of ults at once. But without the whole aggressive "I have rez, go do some risky plays to get a pick or two, I'll revive you when you wipe" thing, pretty much strictly defensive. I don't think it's really that bad.
I hope we eventually get an option to hide unobtainable items. I don't mind seeing stuff like the Halloween or even Summer Games items because I know they'll come around another time, as long as it's going to be, but I don't exactly like seeing stuff that I won't [i]ever[/i] be able to get stuff like Widowmaker's Noire or the Season 1+2 master 500+ rewards, and I don't exactly want to be reminded of it.
So I've been at work and haven't been able to play her yet, it's to my understanding the community has gone from "OMG OP!!" to "Wow, she's actually kinda weak." Correct?
[QUOTE=Judas;51325319]mei single-handedly makes 3v3 arena not worth playing the team with a better mei is a 100% garunteed win[/QUOTE] Then get a better Mei.
[QUOTE=Totenkreuz;51327181]So I've been at work and haven't been able to play her yet, it's to my understanding the community has gone from "OMG OP!!" to "Wow, she's actually kinda weak." Correct?[/QUOTE] I think she's similar to Zarya in that she's not going to be destroying quickplay unless theres a cordinated stack.
[QUOTE=MoopsiePook;51326748]It was also one of the greatest perks of the pyro class. Makes you think.[/QUOTE] Tbh I didn't have a fucking clue about the airblast until one day I hit hit by a reflected rocket and inquired. Would've helped if Valve had those class tutorials in the game on release.
So I've noticed that even Sombra can shoot down Pharah Which makes me genuinely curious who is actually the worst hero Pharah or Symmetra.
Pharah doesn't literally make a chair out of thin air so when someone needs to take a breather nobody's gonna be heading to captain rocket bara-AAAUGH just saying

Unobtainable items are hidden from the "x out of y unlocks" part of the hero gallery at least.
Pretty useful info. [video=youtube;HG-LPbXCI0I]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HG-LPbXCI0I[/video]

Sometimes there's this weird lag on servers that often leads to the whole match being restarted, right? I was walking around the map while everybody was frozen and got spooked by this: [thumb]http://i.imgur.com/8yh2ptj.jpg[/thumb] :mystery:
The camera in the corner somehow makes that image so much creepier
You can also get Lucio stuck in that animation by climbing up on the ladder in the spawn of Volskaya Attack. I love the animation smears in this game, but once you've noticed them they're so much easier to spot.
I can never find anyone to group up with in comp anymore. And the more I play comp by myself, the more my SR just tanks 'cuz I'm always getting put on teams that don't communicate or work together. Does Facepunch have its own group? I desperately need people to group up with, I can't stand doing comp solo anymore. Is this Discord group the closest thing we have? (I haven't used Discord very much.)
[QUOTE=KnightLight;51327482]Pretty useful info. [video=youtube;HG-LPbXCI0I]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HG-LPbXCI0I[/video][/QUOTE] Reminds me that I hate that she can hack bastion out of turret form.

I had fun with about maybe three matches of 3v3 Skirmish until I started seeing fucking annoying ass people that spam Roadhog constantly and never play anything else. I don't know if anyone else is getting really fucking sick of him, but I have been for a long time. It's bullshit to think that someone aside from a sniper or Reaper can oneshot another character at all and I really don't agree with his design philosophy.

Winston is such a damn toss up in the new 1v1 and he shows up quite a bit... Not fun.
