Funny how you join a game in progress and lose like a minute later it counts as a loss.

A team of five Zaryas and a Lucio is really hard to stop. Attacking them only makes them angrier.

Internet Kraken posted:I feel like Pharah is the new flavor of the month. I keep seeing double Pharah in every other game. Funny, couple weeks ago some one was wondering why there are suddenly Zenyattas everywhere. It's because on Reddit's Overwatch sub, there's a pinned "weekly discussion" thread that just changed to Pharah. It's kind of like there's a shitload of people who have no free will of their own, they just go where they are directed towards like some kind of lemmings. "How awesome, today I learned there's this hero called Pharah that can shoot rockets and poo poo, thanks to the Reddit thread I now even know what her abilities are"

Elpato posted:I love Torb turrets. Free weapon charge for Zarya. It's the one damage source that won't quit when you pop your bubble. I had a really weird Roadhog night. I was landing my hook better than ever, including waiting to use it until I had closed distance to be sure to get the stun duration. But over and over and over again, enemies were escaping without dying. I had a Mercy who I hooked+M1, she lives and starts flying off, I turn and chase her, hook her again, and the same thing happened! Apparently I'm a terrible hog.

Gotta follow that M1 up with a melee hit to get the full effect. I was whiffing a bunch of those combos earlier tonight because I was trying to hit both M1 and M4 (melee) at the same time and it was only shooting. I had this moment of ashamed stupidity where I was wondering if there was truth to the whole "Well Actually I'm not bad, it's a tickrate issue" thing but then I saw the melee wasn't even happening visually because I wasn't hitting the buttons separately.

Definitely could've been that. I just gotta get good. Play of the night was definitely this Lucio teammate on the Lijiang map with the square temple capture point. Two Reapers teleport behind the point, he doots one off but the other wraith forms to get away, he follows him and doots him off as soon as he rematerialized. I love all 3 of the Lijiang maps.

I got accused of hacking as Hanzo today and now the guy made an official forums thread about it. He thinks I had an unnaturally quick ult buildup despite his team cramming giant walls of easily shot flesh into choke points.

Hanzo is just the victim of being able to instantly do a metric buttload of damage and also having a really apparent Ultimate. It's easy to think he's getting them unnaturally fast; same thing with Mercy but for different reasons.

Also it looks really funny when you pull off a stupidly improbable snapshot through sheer luck because they're going to see it on the death cam and it will undoubtedly look like the highest degree of bullshit.

So... gently caress Hanzo. Nerf him into the dirt! Really good Hanzo players are the worst. Much like Widowmakers. Look I just really hate snipers of all kinds and believe they should gently caress off forever.

The only really bad thing about Hanzo is that he doesn't actually need to hit you to hit you, the arrow just needs to be aimed within a metre of you and it registers as a hit.

That's all Hanzo has going for him though. He's the pubbie king of potshots. He might as well not exist if you take the ridiculous hitboxes away.

I've discovered that role playing as zenyatta in pubby chat while playing him is good loving times. Just all caps his quotes and your team loves you and gives you up votes while the enemy gets real loving lovely about it Also, I love that all the mcrees are gone now. The ones left are still poo poo or didn't get the memo.

Yeah, dying to Hanzo sucks but he's already not great in the hands of the majority of players and taking away even that advantage would make him an almost complete waste of space. Those rare few good Hanzos are a menace though, in one of my games earlier a guy got PotG with him by standing in the middle of the street in one of the Ilios maps and headshotting three people with three arrows at completely different ranges. No potshots or Scatter Arrow toe shots, just insanely good timing and aim.

Golem II posted:I tried playing zenyatta tonight, he really needs more health. I've seen two possibilities suggested both here and elsewhere that could possibly work; raise his health by 25 to 50 points, or make his non shield health into armor instead, considering that unlike Lucio or Mercy he can't self heal I think this wouldn't be unreasonable Also had a possible idea or two regarding his orbs; give him a slight speed boost when he harmony orbs a teammate(say 10 to 15%), and/or give him a life steal effect on his discord orb(say about 10 percent of all damage taken by a discorded opponent)

The Widow changes seem pretty good so far. I'm noticing that most of the time when I get hit, it's with a non-lethal body shot so I can duck under cover and heal back up. Makes it possible to actually use cover to push forward past corridors that used to be locked down with a single sniper. Not sure what it's like at higher levels where all the snipers can actually land headshots though...

It's easier to spot when you've been body shot now, which makes it easier to figure out which Widows you should be watching intently on deathcam for the telltale snap-tos, because lol like the botters ever hit anything but the head.

Zenyatta actually heals 66% of his health. His self heal is not as good as Mercy's and Lucio's but his orbs are stronk

Golem II posted:McRae changes you see but I don't see any difference to widow The only difference is that Widows on defence spend less time moving around, and more time locked into scope, which has made no change at all to their ability to dominate lanes and chokepoints, and all the kills mean the ult builds just as fast anyway.
