I HATE THAT HEDGEHOG, BROTHER!
Had a McCree player named NERF who complained the whole match about how they nerfed McCree :buddy:

edit: Oh man I never realized how satisfying Reaper's ult was until I managed to get play of the game with it, especially considering how very little work goes into it beyond hoping the other team doesn't kill you first

If you guys thought that Widowmaker nerfs would decrease the number of offensive Widows, prepare to be disappointed.

Yeah, seriously what the hell, I've been seeing like twice as many as usual today, and a bunch more on offense. I can't even imagine the psychology there.

The McCree nerf is well overdue and fine. They've basically just raised his skill floor and now you have to be good at aiming his left click to go to town with him, which is what good players were doing anyway.

Only people who are really going to feel the nerf are people like this:

Its as if Blizzard has this weekly mode they could test balance changes in before pushing to the primary servers...



Or they could use it for Dadblops for a week.

Just had a game on Ilios where some dude spent the entire game bitching at me (Pharah), because I didn't spend as much time in the air as he thought I should. ?????

We lose, and then he yells at me for being lovely and tells me to kill myself right as my POTG pops up. I also had four golds. The lack of scoreboard allows whole new avenues for fuckwads to make fools of themselves!

Would it be fine to set up a macro to play "MMM WHATCHA SAYYY" every time a Widow kills someone?

I've been playing Overwatch for the first time tonight and Bastion is really good for total garbage people like me, not having to worry about even moving is really nice and his chaingun has infinite range, as long as you know when to adjust your position and which chokepoints to defend you can rack up kill streaks

Lucio is good too, I know when to swap beats and when to amp them up, I'm no good at using his weapon or wall-skating at this point though

I got a couple of matches in and I can barely tell the difference re: Widow. McCree felt neutered and awful, on the other hand.

That said I (a certified bad) still got top scores in damage/elim all (three) matches as McCree. Maybe it'll pass once I get over fth being dogshit. :shrug:

it's so, so nice to be able to play Zenyatta without being erased by a widow every time she sees me

that's exactly what Bastion is for, but one semi-warning: as you rise up in MMR bastion will be less and less effective, so if you inflate your MMR on Bastion you're gonna get your poo poo stomped in as you learn new dudes

What is that website where you can see people's rankings? I know it isn't their actual ranking, but by time played. I was trying to tell my buddy that there were people already in the 200s for their level and was trying to send him the website to prove it.

So I'm of the opinion that while Mei has a good setup overall, she could use probably use a buff in some form or another, the question becomes in what manner should she get a buff though?

eh she doesn't really need a buff

I wouldn't mind her alt fire getting one because it's fun as hell to outgun mccrees at midrange with it but they sure as gently caress shouldn't buff the freeze spray

I wouldn't mind if her spray was a little wider, it's actually kinda hard to hit people with it sometimes

the spray does not need a buff. you barely have to aim with it as is

she needs a redesign more than a buff, if you buffed any one piece of her kit she'd be a nightmare yet she's still at the bottom
