[QUOTE=EliaMoroes;51363488]A word of experience coming from Dota 2: the illusion that, the higher the rank, the better your teammates are overall is, as I noted, an illusion[/QUOTE]
As a Season 1 top 500 and a currently 3750 rank, I can also confirm this. You just pray you don't get a troll on your team. If you do, you lose almost instantly (can possibly get a draw), but if you don't, you're likely to win because the enemy has a troll.
It's a lot worse this season than it was in season 1 though. In season 1 I had a 63% winrate but in season 2 it's all the way down to 50%. At this point, it's mostly a coin toss of whether my team has the hanzo main or the enemy team does, and the win rate seems to reflect that.
[QUOTE=Sift;51362928]I hope when Sombra releases she can override enemy Sombra's hacks.
It's kind of stupid to have a healthpack just stolen for the entire map because the enemy team spawns closest to it, it seriously cripples flankers for literally no effort.
Personal opinion but I think it should [b]either[/b]
~Get nerfed to only last 20-30 seconds
~Have a friendly Sombra flip it to your team at the very least.[/QUOTE]
The medkit hack should just be limited to one at a time and only for 30 seconds instead of a full blown minute
my responses to some of the stuff i've seen on the last few pages:
1. imo, i have no trouble killing even advanced ana players as reaper. bait the sleep dart then move in. also, I always hold off on attacking her until i hear her sleep dart. it's a loud sound, it's not hard to listen for it.
2. you should not be relying on health packs unless you're zen (even so, if you're running a zenyatta you NEED another healer. he simply can not output enough healing for the team, especially with 2 tanks.)
3. blizzard should just fix the hitboxes of dva and winston. both are basically useless if any of the enemy players have even the slightest bit of knowledge in the game
4. IF YOU'RE HAVING TO RELY ON HEALTH PACKS, YOU'RE EITHER NOT PLAYING WITH THE HEALER OR YOUR HEALER IS NOT GOOD. YOU CAN FIX BOTH OF THOSE PROBLEMS YOURSELF.
[QUOTE=Annoyed Grunt;51363232]I've said this before and I'll say this again, if any of you guys are in Europe and want a little bit help climbing, add me (AnnoyedGrunt#2191). 2300 and up - unfortunately the 1000-points limit ensures I can't play with anybody below that.[/QUOTE]
Added you. (Andylon12#2722)

No, relying on health packs is a pretty common thing and it does not mean that you or your healer are bad. I mean, if you're Reinhardt and you have to rely on healthpacks, yes, something is going terribly wrong. But pretty much all high-mobility, frontline crossing classes will have to rely on healthpacks to some extent to do their job. Examples of this are Tracer, Reaper, Genji and Winston, D.va.Reaper is probably the less reliant on them and the only reason for that is that he's got healthpacks literally built within its kit. Other classes like Lucio, Zenyatta, and Ana are going to use healthpacks as well while being flanked - Ana to a smaller extent obviously because she's got the nuke.
For my friends who are stuck in platinum, try playing after 12, I noticed solo queuing becomes a lot easier as the number of party players falls. I went from 2567 to 3228 in one night.
"oh hey we're winning, time to switch to bastion and other dumb picks and start messing around"
-teammates that are about to lose us the game

Less kids are on around that time since they need to be in bed for school.
Best games you can get happen around 1am, but not on weekends.
[QUOTE=ApertureXS200;51360696]that's it
i will not play any fucking support anymore
those class are weak and shit
THAT WAS THE LAST FUCKING TIME
WHY CANT I KILL A FUCKING MEI AS A REAPER? WHAT AM I DOING WRONG? I GO ON WRAITH FORM WHEN I'M ABOUT TO GET FROZEN BUT SHE FOLLOWS ME AND REDO IT AGAIN KILLING ME[/QUOTE]
It sounds like you also don't know how to deal with a bastion.

[QUOTE=FiveEyes;51361946]Lose a game, lose 40 SR. Win next game, get 15.
Fuck you game that isn't fair. I've nearly lost 400 elo in the last 2 days.[/QUOTE]
Devs keep saying that it's thinking it needs to readjust your placement and give more and takes less or vice versa to get you there sooner.
But it certainly doesn't feel fair.
Fuck I can't decide myself.
I'd really like to buy a golden tesla but at the same time I also want the golden particle cannon, but lately I haven't been playing Zarya much as - for some reason - I feel my aim became worse (not that it was any good to begin with) ;_;
I don't think I've ever seen a golden tesla.
[QUOTE=Oizen;51365027]I don't think I've ever seen a golden tesla.[/QUOTE]
I'd totally get one if he had a skin it'd look good with. Winston is amazing.
After one of my best games of Mei yet I get a lootbox with the Snowball icon I've wanted since launch.
Bless Blizzard.
[QUOTE=Jarokwa;51365881]on one hand i want to force myself through another 10 levels so i can take advantage of low xp needed till next level, on the other hand i may aswell just wait for the patch to hit because the xp will be reduced anyway and lootboxes will be easy to get with the arcade.[/QUOTE]
If you rush it now you get the best of both worlds, super fast levels now as well as weekly boxes and lower XP requirements when the patch hits.

I think both is a bit harsh, one at a time but keeping 60 seconds seems better. It allows for some really useful infiltration but isn't as abusable as it currently is

Somebody at blizzard went "fuck you"[/QUOTE]
This is sadly a regular occurrence
The past dozen maps I've played on have all been volskaya
I launch the game and spectate a game, it's volskaya
I play competitive, it's volskaya
I switch to quickplay, it's volskaya
I get the least amount of wins on that map, and yet the game keeps pushing the map onto me

i used to get matched into ilios for like 90% of my maps and it really made me stay away from the game for like 2 weeks lmfao
Am I the only one that likes koth
It makes me into an asshole since I pretty much refuse to play any character but tracer on it when I usually play support
[QUOTE=phygon;51367178]Am I the only one that likes koth[/QUOTE]
I like Koth.
I do not like 2cp
[QUOTE=Oizen;51367204]I like Koth.

Yeah 2cp is awful for the attacking team
2cp is the only gamemode which has those moments of downtime Overwatch wanted to get rid of that TF2 maps had. There's a lot of moments on Defense where I'm just waiting at the point for the other team to attempt another push. It feels like a game of cp_dustbowl after you've held the same room for a few minutes without the other team having anything even close to a successful push.
