Like even if it was something like...Tracer moves her arm really fast and creates a small disruptive pocket of space-time that becomes unstable and explodes after a short timer, changing absolutely nothing about the ability but its flavour it'd work better.

Last night after a group disbanded i played a few more solo queue matches and ended up playing symmetra as only support on Dorado defense, with no tank.. and somehow we crushed it, they didn't even get to the first checkpoint. No idea what the gently caress happened that game. well thats my story cya

Iron Man Unibeam. Straight ahead, one shot, no AoE. But if it hits, it reverses the target back to the start of the match and they lose all their kill credit.

Dick Trauma posted:What are the characters you find yourself not playing at all? Tracer and Hanzo largely. I'd rather play Reaper and Widowmaker in almost any situation those characters are good but that's just personal taste. (And I barely play Reaper and Widowmaker anyway, support 4 lyfe.)

Ken with an AK-47 in one hand, throwing hadokens with his other hand. He can shoryuken to deal damage and jump up small ledges. There's no cooldown on it of course.

Dick Trauma posted:What are the characters you find yourself not playing at all? I haven't played Mei or D.Va at all because I played them enough in beta to know I don't like them. I played Bastion 4 minutes because I know he's weaker than people think and nearly every time my team has a Bastion we lose. I've barely played Zenyatta because he is garbage right now. I've only played 33 minutes of Widow because I usually just pick her for offense, check for any free shots, drop someone and swap to attacker.

Countblanc posted:there's definitely certain tools a character can have that makes them easier to stomp people with at lower skill levels. a fighting game character with lots of super armor is going to ruin bad people's days a lot more than a pixie who needs to drill combos to be even moderately effective. of course - I don't think "easier to play" by default means "will eventually fall off," because sometimes they don't (often they don't). Ryu is real good in most of the Street Fighter games because his toolkit is simple but effective and reliable. he has neat-o tricks in virtually every installment, but he's effective from the jump, as well (also ken rules man jesus gently caress) McCree, Reinhardt and Widowmaker all fit this mold pretty well, where they're easy to start playing and remain generally effective either through the merit of their simple-but-effective tools, or because as you level up your game they allow for growth Reaper and Soldier: 76 currently fall into what I was talking about before, where they eventually hit a plateau no matter how good you get at Overwatch, and remaining effective with them over another hero becomes situational or more difficult I think Genji is more like the Scout than the Spy from TF2, where picking him up and trying to be immediately good with him will result in bad times while you get endlessly mowed down by the Heavy/Bastion or the Engineer/Torbjorn, but once you have a modicum of skill those matchups become almost trivially easy the most Spy-like/C.Viper-ish/F.A.N.G.-esque character I see in Overwatch to me is Zenyatta, where you need a pretty high level of skill just to not suck and even once you're really good he's still just kinda poo poo - which pains me because I love Zenyatta guts and bolts fucked around with this message at 21:02 on Jun 3, 2016 |

Countblanc posted:i've been trying this out a bit with mumble friends and I'm starting to think that one of the best strats for pubs right now is "don't show respect until the opponents earn it." not like, bming or picking gimmick 5 mei/1 lucio comps, but basically ask yourself "do i assume my opponents are playing well/'correctly' right now?" and if the answer is yes even though you haven't actually seen proof of that you need to go a bit more ham. Picking a Winston/Genji/Tracer to evade past the choke on anubis is legit a good way to make defense start to split their attention and fall apart in pubs: either nobody goes to the point and you get 1+ free ticks, or everybody goes to deal with it and your team makes 1-2 picks at the main gate and they fall apart. Numbani is probably the map where I see this happen most often.

I finally got the fabled team kill with Pharah's ult without having to give my life, winning us point A on Anubis. PotG went to the enemy Reinhardt, who played whack-a-mole with our entire team on point B as our Mercy rez'd us. I have to wonder what could have been if we didn't have a Mercy, Lucio, and Symmetra on attack.

Anyone notice FPS stuttering even with decent ping? FPS monitors keep me at a constant 100+ FPS all the time but sometimes on the bigger maps like Numbani I'll notice a constant stutter.
