So if Dva is totally actually super good you guys no really, how am I supposed to be using her guns? I guess there's some trick to it like getting the one shot kill on all body types with the scrap gun. Because holy gently caress the cannons seem to do Torbjorn turret dps.

You also basically •have• to get crits to be effective, so aiming matters. This is one of the reasons D.Va needs work; you need to be right up in their grill, aiming for a small head hitbox, in order to deal the same amount of damage that most other heroes do to her before accounting for her easy-to-hit crit area in her center of mass.

She's fun to play, not good. I'll stop whining about her in the fun thread, though.


Day three of not being able to play. Happy dreams of playing become nightmares when waking, since I have two more days to go.

You get some of you preordered the origins edition but they're kinda crap. The S76 one is all right because it doesn't change his voice so it's like this 30 year old guy who smoked turpentine-dipped coffin nails since he was 10. The Pharah one is some desert camo stuff and the Widow one is a skin for the most useless character in the game.

I wish you could move stuff around the UI. I love playing Zarya but you have to be absolutely on point with her skills. She lives and dies by her shields so having the cooldown information closer to your aiming reticle would go a long way.

Reaper's skin is amazing because he's a regular dude that's ~~~~edgy as gently caress~~~~ and turns into shadows and poo poo!

BTW reaper talk: he's not that hard to play. Always be flanking and abuse your E to come from unexpected angles. Don't aim for heads, but do shoot from close range. Shooting from middle range doesn't do good damage but you'll always hit a few pellets so it's ok to finish someone off.

Don't use your Shift to charge head on, that's dumb and will result in your dead. Yes not even if you have ult, if a team sees a Reaper charging them they're just going to spread and headshot you as soon as you pop out. E to a weird angle then drop onto them instead.

Basically just learn to use E, otherwise just play McCree.

I'm not going to say you can't heal your telepad because I have never tried, but I'm pretty sure the turrets have 1 HP. Everything one shots them. McCree's flashbang can probably kill them.

I can't decide whether my favorite moment yesterday was single handedly stopping a high noon with Mercy's pistol or launching a tracer off the map just as she reached the capture point with junkrat. This game is so fun.

in addition, best use of your shadowform is to use it to retreat to a health pack, often the other person will pursue even after you hurt them, and then you get a health advantage and finish them off.

then teleport across the map so you are gone when they come back for revenge and repeat.

Good post.

He also synergizes very, very well with Reinhardt`s or Zarya`s ulti (then again.... anything does with Zarya's), Prep teleport --> RH ultis --> Press q --> get potg.

Same! I've played too much Pharah so other characters feel so vulnerable. Walking around on the ground like some kind of peasant feels really weird, and it's probably my only problem with Mei.

Junkrat's bomb jump and D.Va's boosters are alternatives I can live with though.

Sometimes I just find pharah too frustrating to play if other team has a good 76/mccree/widow. Rockets are fun but god drat getting shut down when abit airbourne is rough.

Oh that's right, Reaper has that "What a CODBLOPS character named Reyes would look like" skin. Same voice thing as S76, shame they didn't have him voiced by Luis Guzman or Benicio Del Toro for it.

Comedy option naturally being John Leguizamo reprising his Chi Chi Rodriguez role.
