It would be "funny" if the game would should your win rate with the selected hero in the hero selection screen, provided that you have done above a certain limit of games with that hero. I mean sure, you COULD always click everyone's profile and calculate it yourself, but meh. This way, you could instantly separate the God Genjis from the lovely Genjis, the trolling offensive Torbrörns from the 70% winrate offensive Torbjörns etc. Of course it''s not going to happen for the same reasons that there is no actual scoreboard, but I kind of feel that if you're dat guy with 80% of your games as Hanzo, people deserve to know.

I"m having a really hard time parsing any of thisWillie Tomg posted:You're saying a lot of mechanically factual things, then implying they're qualitatively bad, when in fact if you played most of the other heroes you did not play when you played "Dva" and "Zarya" you'd achieve good results. This is the process of becoming "okay" Willie Tomg posted:hrm. it appears the red team is not making mistakes upon which to capitalize as zarya or dva.

ster suggests that the constant tinkering with the basketball physics in spawn was probably secret testing for lucioball and my mind is blown

I like to train against medium AI bots and get a feel for characters. If I do it against real people I end up dying a heck of a lot. Especially to crazy ninja Genzis. One guy in a random casual match was amazingly jumping everywhere around me and got me about five times in a row. It was only my fifth match so I had no idea what to do against it.

hard A.I Anas with only headshots allowed is a good way to practice your aim on small moving targets without having to worry about taking damage

It really sucks trying to learn literally any one of the offensive heroes right now because everyone assumes you'll be amazing and carry the team with them. Then you switch to the one you're good at again so you can actually carry the team

So there's a thread on the forums saying they plan to disable comp mode for 3 weeks between season 1 and 2. That seems kind of awful. I'm not sure I can go back to QP with people not giving a poo poo if they win or lose whatsoever at this point and 3 weeks seems excessive.

o I wouldn't worry about people not wanting to win in qp. there are gimmick teams, yea, but plenty of people tryhard there. even more will be like that while comp is in its off seasonkater posted:wait am I supposed to be getting headshots with ana? ana doesn't have a headshot multiplier so it doesn't matter where you hit someone with her

I think the general attitude in Quick Play has gotten better since comp was introduced since all the suicidally depressed gamers rage there to establish their sense of self-worth.

Since I play this game for funsies (although some QM players like to point out my username to claim otherwise) with a relatively low playtime compared to most, I have no idea what "no re" means, and I have never seen it in a game. How condescending is this phrase?

It just means "no rematch," as if your opponent isn't even worth your time. I've never seen it used non-jokingly however.

I like to respond to rage/salt chat with the simple statement "I'm sorry you're upset." This often prompts even greater apoplexy about a dumb video game where cartoon people shoot each other, which amuses me.

Apparently my placement matches were a bad indicator of my actual skill. Since being ranked 45, I've named to lose just about every match. It could be I just suck at this game.

The rank system they've got on the go is pretty great. The upper and lower echelons should be unattainable and the rankings are pretty right in skill level. With a much more penalizing leaver system and adjustments to tie breakers it would be the best comp experience blizz has offered.

He also couldn't look behind him in turret form with the shield, making him an even more severe "can you flank? y(win)/n(lose)" newbie check.
