Been sticking more with single shot heroes just to keep myself consistent between games.
Definitely noticing some improvements. Depending on how I feel, I go either Widow, McCree, or Ana.
Surprisingly enough, at least the last few I played, I didn't get flamed for picking Widow. I was willing to swap off obviously to a more solid pick, but we were all pretty chill.

[QUOTE]I’ve always been partial to the idea that McCree is 100% fake urban aesthetic cowboy who came to Overwatch with no idea how to ride a horse or start a fire or do really anything outdoorsy much to the frustration of actual farmer Strike Commander Morrison.[/QUOTE]

Am I the only one that thinks Koth matches should end after one team has already one the first 2 rounds?
seems kinda pointless to have that third match.

it already does that though? unless you're talking about competitive which is in a best of 5 format in which case, of course it's not pointless there's been plenty of times my team and i turned things around.
I would not be against best of 3 competitive koth, personally.

Yeah, I do mean competitive. I dunno I guess I just like the best out 3 format more since second round already seems like a chance for the other team to turn things around but whatever.
Going 0-2 and getting 3 straight wins after everyone gets their shit together feels so satisfying though.
Goddamn it i thought it was gonna be the live patch for the new wheel :v:
[QUOTE=Atlascore;51680059]Someone please save me, I've been cursed! I can't win competitive games anymore, I don't even know what changed I was doing fine around 2500-2700, my win rate was about 50%. Then I went through a losing streak, won a game, then another losing streak, won a game, over and over again, I'm down to 1730 SR right. I swear my win rate has tanked to <10%.
I've pretty much given up on playing anything but support since hitting 2000 SR, maybe I was incredibly bad and got placed way too high? I don't know.[/QUOTE]
Every time I start going on those losing streaks I stop playing altogheter because Is simply not working. Trust me when you come back you always do better.
[QUOTE=RenegadeCop;51680171]More like it continues[/QUOTE]
I've never seen them get positive upvotes before.
Which means Symmetra nerfs are now inevitable.
Can't wait for her to become bottom tier again just because battlenet forums still doesn't know how to play the game. :rolleyes:
Thing is, when Blizz shoot down any ideas the forums have they go APE SHIT and claim Blizz are the worst ever company at communication and feedback, despite them handling Hog's hook pretty fucking well with good feed back not to mention further buffs to Sombra and nerfs to Ana when given enough info from the PTR.

Why does Blizzard have to "shoot down" anything? Why can't they just be like Valve and not listen to any community feedback whatsoever?
Wow, Pharah players can be absolutely fucking awful at times. It's pretty goddamn obvious that you should switch off Pharah if the enemy team has a Roadhog, a Widowmaker, a Soldier, and a fucking Genji, but no quickplay lol :^)
I could actually discuss the broken aspects of a hero who can dish out some nice chunks of damage from a comfortable distance without any need for aiming whatsoever, and also while taking advantage of her small frame, one of the smallest in the entire game, but I can already forsee the reactions I would incite against myself here, so I'll pass, if you don't mind
Man I hope Mei is the next one to get a redesign like Symmetra did
she's not underpowered or anything but she's just plain not fun to play against [I]or[/I] alongside because of the amount of players that do the [I]~hilarious~[/I] goof of throwing up an ice wall in front of spawn, or constantly traps you with the entire enemy team by putting an ice wall where you're trying to retreat

Trolls and griefers are at fault here, not the character, that'd be the equivalent of wanting to remove Symmetra's teleport just because some people put it on cliffs to troll teammates

I've never actually seen anyone do that. And even if they did, it'd be a waste of an [I]ult,[/I] not an ability you get every 10 seconds. And it's a trick that only works once, even if it does fuck you over.
Mei griefers are way more common in my experience, and for all you know not even deliberate. Like, sometimes Mei will put up a wall right in front of you when you're trying to get a kill, or right behind you when you're both trying to run away, but for all you know they're not even trying to fuck with you, cause maybe they just suck. She's the only hero I'm aware that has the ability to constantly hurt [I]their own[/I] team and not even necessarily on purpose.
I made a post defending her. Hopefully they'll listen
symmetra is probably going to be nerfed on consoles the way torb's turrets were because people can't aim
mei isnt really annoying to fight against anymore to me, It's gotten easier to space yourself from her and she also doesnt throw down her ult every 2 nano seconds now
[QUOTE=Dazzgrace;51680677]mei isnt really annoying to fight against anymore to me, It's gotten easier to space yourself from her and she also doesnt throw down her ult every 2 nano seconds now[/QUOTE]
She's only annoying when she stalls most of the time.
She's annoying because she is just an overtime extender.
Literally seconds ago got out of a comp match where a trash Mccree got chewed out by his team, then went mei and blocked people from leaving spawn repeatedly. Don't tell me it's not a problem.
Giving players the ability to grief through a mechanic and then saying "oh it's a problem with the griefers, not the mechanic" is dumb. Unless you have a perfect ban system and can get every single griefer banned, then addressing the problem on the griefer side isn't enough to stop it from ruining matches. Never give players tools they can easily grief with.
She's annoying because she's trying too hard to be cute and her personality is garbage.

Sounds more like D.va. D.va is one of those characters that can't pass the Star Wars test, where you ask people to describe a character without mentioning their job or what they occupy themselves with.

I'm fairly certain it's a bit more complex than that but...
Competitive, fairly smug and self-centered, lacking in self-awareness (gamer xd) would be a decent way to describe her
Am I a bad person for liking Mei so much because she's probably the closest to the Pyro? I play her hit-and-run ambush tactics style, she excels at that.
A hero should never be able to contest an objective while invulnerable, period.
Either make the Ice-Block breakable with like ~500 hp or remove its ability to contest outright.
