Ultimately the best counter to a skilled Widowmaker is going to be an equally skilled Widowmaker just like how it is with every game that has to have a sniper. I would like to see one shooter go gently caress no to sniper garbage

Sometimes your team composition just doesn't synergize well with Mercy. In those cases, I don't mind using my pistol more than usual. I got PotG in one round where I ran in, rezzed two people, then headshot a Widowmaker at long range with Mercy's pistol. Quite satisfying. I also hope that the killcam lets the enemy team hear your voice lines, because I bought "on a scale of 1-10, how much does it hurt" to troll those I kill as Mercy. I even killed a Bastion in turret form (facing my direction) with her by plinking away at his visible edges behind a pillar. In Arcade mode, I fought an all-Torbjorn team defending on Gibraltar. It was pretty tough to deal with but we made it to the last point with a good amount of time, then hit a roadblock. Until I switched to Zarya. Zarya eats turrets for breakfast because they don't know to not fire and charge her weapon. I'm not good with Zarya, so it took a few tries and a second Zarya, but we did eventually manage to break through thanks to chain-shielding and Gravity Wells providing too much damage even for the mass Torbjorns to handle. Also, I got a 100 MB patch or so for the game, no notes. Probably not important, just some bugfixes.

The only thing that would make Reaper's mariachi skins better would be if mariachi music played when he ulted. Hanzo's ultimate makes a wolf howl instead of a dragon roar.

I have this thing for switching to my nes zapper as Mercy and braining the enemy Widowmaker from across the field. I would do it proper by switching to Widowmaker myself and engaging in an epic sniper vs. sniper duel, but i haven't learned how to channel the spirit of Caro.

He's actually still alive if you are wondering why your spirit journeys keep failing. Had some pretty rough games today. That feeling when you get 10 blaster kills with mercy only to lose in overtime because your the only one trying to shoot the stupid loving tire.

mei IS good, she's just not stupid. she's useful on certain points of certain maps at certain times, which is a fine thing for a hero to be in a game with over 20 characters. she's just not going to be a static part of any team's lineup because she requires people to walk into her (ie practically needs to be on defense).

Its always high noon somewhere.cock hero flux posted:Mei is one of those heroes that can never be good because her very concept is extremely annoying to play against and if she wasn't at least kind of bad then she would ruin the game. I'd rather get killed by Mei than Widowmaker/Hanzo. At least Mei isn't killing me from full health from across the map. EDIT: Does Widowmaker leave any kind of visual marker as to where she is aiming like the Sniper in TF2? Internet Kraken fucked around with this message at 03:12 on May 27, 2016 |

How do you even fix McCree without breaking the game in even worse ways Would making the flashbang stun inversely proportionate to your max hp even do anything in competitive

So can they nerf Reaper or something. I'm getting sick of seeing three of him and Widowmaker per map. Also, make Symmertra's weapon capable of firing at all from more than five feet away.Macaluso posted:Mei is really good though Her freezing effect needs to kick in a little sooner.

I disagree about this post in the context of Overwatch, but I played Mortal Kombat againtst my friend who was good with Sub-Zero and every time I did anything he froze me so I kinda gave up. In OW it's not 1vs1, so Mei doesn't shut down the whole game, and she has tons of counters. Fan art idea: Mei as Sub-Zero, Roadhog as Scorpion

Mei is good at being low tier and being adored by disgusting sniffers but imo she could use some buffs in terms of actual gameplay.

Nehru the Damaja posted:How do you even fix McCree without breaking the game in even worse ways Make flashbang's stun duration proportional to how far from the projectile the target is, so a direct hit is the current .7s duration, and the furthest range is like .3 seconds, and have it scale in between obviously. This makes some of the weirder comp stuff less easy/OP, like flashbanging over a rein shield or stunning 2-3 people for almost a second. It'd also just feel a lot less irritating in pub play while also keeping the utility of stunning people out of stuff like ults or bastion siege mode. You'd probably have to address Tracer a bit too since this would be a pretty notable nerf to Mccree's ability to check her

fadam posted:Maybe if you're a big fuckin baby. Look at Mei's skills. She's got a slow and stun that has no cooldown and can pretty much be maintained indefinitely until you die, so you have to just sit there completely unable to do anything for however long it takes her to kill you. She's got an invulnerability/heal skill which exists only to cockblock people that are about to kill her. She's got a big wall that she throws up in your face that stops you from going anywhere. And she's got a big AOE ult that applies her stun to everyone. The thing that keeps her from being insufferable is that she's fat and slow and freezing people takes a long time and she's basically incapable of killing someone without freezing them first. Take those away and make her actually good and most of your time playing the game would be spent either staring at a big loving wall in your face, staring at Mei sitting invincibly in an ice cube or staring at your health bar slowly drop while you're frozen. Mei is a character who is all about making other people unable to do anything. Not killing them and making them respawn, but just making them sit around and wait for whatever she's doing to be over.
