Played a game as Symmetra where I was the only defender left on a payload that was right on top of the final destination. Threw down my teleporter as I died, and the clowncar began. We ended up winning that match, after it got hectic enough that I had enough to place down another teleporter after the initial one was destroyed. I regret not recording it, and can only hope one of the goons I was playing with did.

I love Reinhardt because not only does he look like a Dark Souls character, but he plays like one too. So I killed about 3 of them just by dodging their attack, circling around, and shooting them in the rear end.

Reaper has clear weaknesses and strengths that teams can exploit to play around him. Widowmaker can hit people at ranges that they cannot respond at, can instantly kill 2/3rds of the cast, and also has respectable close range and AoE damage, for some loving reason.

How do I properly wall-jump up a single wall with Lucio?

I tried playing a match as Zarya and accomplished basically nothing and held my head in shame I'm really bad at this game if I have to play something other than Defense or Support.

TheKingofSprings posted:How do I properly wall-jump up a single wall with Lucio? You can't just go up a single wall, Lucio can't jump while on wall and land on that same surface again, it has to be a new one. How that's defined varies a lot. Best way to get a feel is to just open a map up on your own and skate around!

Does Mercy's blue damage buff wear off the instant you stop casting it? For that matter, does it take effect immediately as well?

Is anyone getting a recurring bug where the UI vanishes, and it basically kicks you to the title screen to watch a hero's idle pose with no text overlay and no way to bring it back? You can still hear the game you were in going on, but it's hit me 3-4 times today, I think each time after I'd died instead of putting me back into the game when I respawn.

Someone in game said that there's going to be a balance patch for Widow, McCree and Winston. Is that true?

I don't think so. Blizzard hasn't said anything and 2/3 of those characters are completely fine and the third is borderline at worst.

Toblerone OP. I'm tired of getting snipped from across the map with his stupid M1 and being wrecked up close with M2. He's pretty much the total package.

The reason Winston is used so consistently is that he's the best "generic" tank of the bunch: he's mobile, deals consistent damage, has solid survivability (especially when his ult is active), and can protect his team during pushes. I'd say he's in an otherwise very balanced state right now. McCree and Widowmaker are the two standouts because of the fact that they don't have enough tradeoffs for their strengths, and I would be very surprised if they weren't put on the chopping block whenever the next big balance patch comes out. We'll see.

tetsuo posted:his primal rage thing is a little too primal and a little too ragey? I don't play him though so maybe he's mediocre/bad until his ult and that makes up for it idk. Wrecks my poo poo like no other ult though. Winston's ult doesn't do a whole lot of damage, it's a zoning tool.

Roadhog has abit of this going on as well but hes got more flaws going on too.

the only reason tracer isn't in that list is because mccree and widow currently are, and she has a higher execution level to not be awful (at least compared to mccree). if those two get brought down than they need to seriously consider doign the same for tracer or else 2x winston is going to be a mandatory part of every comp once people arent awful

I'm terrible and feel like poo poo as well, but somehow I finally went on a head sniping spree with Mei, killed two McCree under High Noon, too - was great. And it'll never happen again so that's the place to end things for the night.
