I have been on a disgusting winstreak with Ana lately. Not enough people realize that she can safely apply and maintain a 75% reduction in Spell Power to two people with very little effort. I've killed so many Sonyas who dive into us expecting to survive via Whirlwind, only to find that she's dealing no damage and healing for nothing (even after Biotic Grenade wears off).

I know reading comprehension and all, but he's implying it started with tracer, who did not come out on Tuesday. Genji at peak overpowered was bad, Tracer is still annoying as poo poo to play against, but the rest are good adds for me.

Genji's still dumb and annoying and will pretty much be forever unless they eventually take a big hatchet to their moveset or something. Zarya was a good add after they got her evened out though.

I'm kind of slowly climbing about the Overwatch heroes hate train too. I find myself playing the game less and less, it's just a different game now, and I liked hots for the game it was.

I don't think it would hurt if the cd on junkrats grenades was just a little bit shorter. Late-game talents make it matter less but early to mid game you blow your load in the first 3 seconds of a team fight and then just wander around impotently for what feels like an eternity until you can do damage again. His auto-attack isn't bad but if you're close enough to use it you're probably in a bad position. Then again I definitely need more time with him to get a good idea of where he fits in a team comp. His niche seems to be in his long range and capability for poke damage, so you can harass people trying to take objectives or nail towers from safety, but it also seems like they based his dps around this so his overall damage is a bit low (especially in early game like I mentioned).

The Junkrat traps are ridiculously bad because there is no way to remove them other than stepping on them, and they root for like two seconds. It's seriously frustrating as a squishy man to just have a trap in front of you that you can see and having absolutely no way to deal with it.

It's seriously frustrating as a squishy man to just have a trap in front of you that you can see and having absolutely no way to deal with it. I mean, at least they're not invisible  The traps are small enough (unless you spec into the talent that increases their size) that you can normally walk around them. I can't think of too many chokepoints that are tight enough for the trap to entirely cover them. I watched a Jaina burn all her cooldowns on my trap last night and then walk right into it to get rid of it. It was hilarious, and I just put another down after she left

I hate all the Overwatch heroes but surprisingly Junkrat isn't as annoying to play against as I thought he would be. Gonna reserve judgement though because its likely that right now people are at a low point in the skill curve.

So fun fact, when you're going into a team battle with junkrat, fire a single shot during the "riding around in circles posturing" phase. That will start the cooldown. When the cooldown gets to around 4 seconds, that's when you want to start firing. Get off your 3 remaining shots, then fire 4 more.

Polio Vax Scene posted:Did people complain about probius' black holes when he came out? NO COUNTERPLAY Probius is a well loved and universally known central figure in starcraft lore going back to warm fuzzy memories of our childhood. He isn't an overwatch hero and therefore the worst thing that ever happened to the game. Hope that helps.

There's so much cc in this game I can't imagine caring that much about a single ability that can root one person for 2 seconds, assuming they walk into it. Also it has an arming time so he can't even root very easily as he runs away. The trap seems like such a non issue, just one of the tools an extremely squishy character has to try and counter ganks.

hawowanlawow posted:The black holes go away, so your comparison doesn't really work You can get rid of the traps by dropping a sumonable minion on them. So Anub, Arthas, Chen, Kerrigan, Malfurion, Nazeebo, Nova, Raynor, Rexxar, Samuro, Stitches, Xul and Zangara can take them out. You can also just walk around them, walk through them with anything that grants unstoppable, or trigger them and get cleansed.

They're not very strong but it's annoying given that you have four other teammates and that it looks so destructible. I think invisible, indestructible, and permanent is a new combination of attributes for a trap.

Junkrat is fun (I've never played Overwatch). But his frag grenade quest, is it not meant to be completed? I think the biggest stack I got was in the 90s in one game. I can't imagine how long the game would have to be to get all the way to 150 stacks.

It's not a quest that has any effect when you finish it so it's just designed to be a steady power increase over the course of the game.

I can't imagine how long the game would have to be to get all the way to 150 stacks. Depends on how "everybody in a cramped space" the map is. I've hit max like twice out of 20ish games, both against either Nova, Rexxar, or Samuro adding warm bodies. During the 12 seconds between firing first Q and firing last Q, you can really take your time to line up double hits, which besides adding more delightful "ding" sounds  also is good practice to spread your damage. You don't have to blow your load ASAP then twiddle your thumbs while waiting for your reload, unless you've got the lvl 7 speed-when-out-of-ammo talent and need to GTFO.Basically, Dietrich posted:So fun fact, when you're going into a team battle with junkrat, fire a single shot during the "riding around in circles posturing" phase. That will start the cooldown. When the cooldown gets to around 4 seconds, that's when you want to start firing. Get off your 3 remaining shots, then fire 4 more. But instead of 1.......... 234 you can do 1...2....3...4 as enemies line themselves up. Bouncy Bouncy is a serious trap talent that I keep telling myself "well this map has tight spaces! I can hit them! But the angles they bounce off walls is hard to predict for me and I end up missing 50% of them, so I deal 0.5*1.2= 60% damage instead of ~the dream~ 120% damage.

I go with extra wound timers at 1, which turns misses into landmines for a reasonable period of time.

BrianBoitano posted:Put some English on it also kinda does that, except it's more chaotic and so more It does but I haven't found myself wanting the range so much as wanting the grenades I miss to stick around behind the enemy team to restrict their escape routes. Also gives you more value out of couple of grenades you might want to go ahead and spam into chokes right before the cooldown is going to reload your clip.

Just played a QM game against a team made up of: Malthael, Lucio, Garrosh, Stukov, Artanis. I would be hard pressed to counter that in draft, matching against it in QM was loving awful. Impossible to kill, absurd amounts of displacement, and not even short on damage because Malth is just marking everyone. Fuuuuuck that.
