does it bother anyone else that roadhog is the one that uses a gun that shoots junk while junkrat has the ultimate that is more associated with roads. i just want them to be junkhog and roadrat. im also ashamed to say that i called them by each others names for the entire beta and for a week on live which was very confusing for my premades

Everyone should just have fun by which I mean play Mei and put ice walls in character's faces or behind Rein when he thinks he has his team backing him up and then turn into an ice block when you're about to die and then put another wall up when you unfreeze and then run away

Thanks for clearing that up. i agree with this article. i mean, as much as i can since its more fact/data than opinion, but i guess i more mean "hero limits only artificially create diversity" like is mentioned at the bottom. when i was watching those tournaments with friends id comment how every comp was the same every map, every game mode. turns out this wasnt just my imagination and hey things got MORE stagnant, not less

I've had some of my best games as Hanzo but largely due to just spamming arrows in the direction of a group of enemies. Way harder than WASD especially without aim assist

exquisite tea posted:The hitboxes are slightly larger than the character models because it's more fun to be forgiving to the shooter and hit people, than it is to not hit people. You might think you are simply too good at the game for this kind of inaccuracy to stand, but then I would also remind you of how you probably leapt to your death on Lijiang Tower three matches ago and blew yourself up with your own rockets. I'm kinda alright for this until its the guys that are taking you out in single shots.

Few things in Overwatch make me sadder than losing to a Symmetra because her teleporters just get to sit in complete peace, please do a service to your fellow teammates and upon hearing the "Enemy has a teleporter" -message, switch to Tracer upon your next death in order to destroy it or at the very least find it and inform your team of its location if you can't get to it. Unless you're in my opposing team of course, in that case do not do that thing and just continue as normal.

Why is Lucio considered less useful on Defense than Mercy? That competitive chart posted earlier showed him picked half as often as Mercy on Defense. Is it because his speed boost isn't as needed? I've always thought he was pretty useful on D because your team is often pretty concentrated near the point. After the initial push I usually only use his speed boost to help the team escape ults or get back to the frontlines after a wipe anyway, and those are both still issues on Defense.

Expanded hitboxes seems to specifically be for console support, any other PC FPS would just up the projectile speed instead of giving players the feelbads when some hanzo strikes your head a foot to the left of your actual model's head. The only time increased projectile speed wouldn't be the answer is if it was in a projectile heavy game, I believe I recall Tribes:Ascend having trouble with speed and projectiles because it was a lot of resources for the server and players to track when 80% of weapons were projectiles that fly halfway across the map.

After the initial push I usually only use his speed boost to help the team escape ults or get back to the frontlines after a wipe anyway, and those are both still issues on Defense. Mercy's rez charges incredibly quickly, especially compared to Lucio's miserably slow ult charge time. But perhaps more importantly you're very, very not going to run both in a Hero Limit 1 tournament, nor do I think 2x Mercy is better than Mercy/Lucio even if you could use that. The reason you're seeing Lucio at a lower representation is because Mercy/Symmetra is a lot better than Lucio/Symmetra for those times a team wants to run Symmetra on defense since Mercy can aggressively rez Symmetra if she dies before getting to play a tele. e: If you look at the raw data he links any time Lucio sees a dip in play it's because Symmetra sees a rise in play so yeah there you go. And obviously Zen is royally hosed lol

Got ya. Guess I need to put more time into Mercy then. Not that I'll ever be "competitive" but I like to make the optimal plays.

Just don't expect to play mercy to where she is as good as in tournament play when your teammates don't position properly and die properly.

henkman posted:Speed boost is better for pushing and mercy ult is better on defense to stop people from having to make a long run back I imagine Mercy is used more for defense because your team has more control over the area, meaning it's safer to damage amp and your deaths will be more concentrated in the area you're defending meaning better ultimates for her.

It's probably also to do with preventing snowballs, right? Like many many offense games are won, even at competitive level, by coordinating ults to get a team kill, then just steam rolling to the end before the defense can regroup. Mercy ult is a better counter to this because she can come in when all the offense ults are finished, whereas Lucio needs to use his ult right away to keep his team from dying and in that case the offense just holds the rest of their ults until he's done.
