It is certainly possible, but doubt silver is constantly that high level competition I think the PBSR might be broken, like it might heavily consider your stats when it comes to rank gain.

Has something gone deeply wrong with comp matchmaking again because I just played three bronze 5 games as support where we got utterly annihilated 3 games in a row. Literally didn’t even have time to earn an ultimate in any of them. An another bitter complaint, I used to be an Ana main but the overall healing buffs in OW2 has frankly made her unplayable for me. I shouldn’t have to hit a Cassidy five times dead on just for him to survive because a Lucio briefly skated past

So dva zarya genji and sombra are all gonna get nerfed apparently? I dont love playing into either dps right now as a support main but im probably more interested in the tank nerfs. I never played either of them before ow2 but they feel super good right now compared to every other tank so i think its fair. Id like some kind of hammond buff but i can live without it. Hes still perfectly playable in bronze 3 and actually feels less countered by sombra at this rank than he was in 1

It will be pretty funny if they nerf her just because of TM.

That said yeah Sombra and Genji are both annoying as hell right now.

Does anyone else find the robot push maps tough as a healer? Granted I suck but man those maps just seem to have a ton of flanking spots and when the robot zips around you have to have your head on a gd swivel.

Mind over Matter posted:The most recent article I've seen said they aren't planning any major buffs or nerfs currently except for Zarya in Total Mayhem. They should just have separate balances for Mystery Heroes and Total Mayhem and modes like that. MH is pretty rough with the buffed tanks right now, IMO.

quickplay with no role limit is almost instant and doesn't make you feel like you're trapped in hell, so imo it's the ideal way of playing the game. Playing support and your team just isn't getting things done? Swap to Winston or Reaper or Junkrat and exploit the hole in the enemy's team comp, and someone else can go support if they want. Maybe the situation you're in calls for 2 tanks? Go for it. 3 DPS? Yeah sure! it's just so obviously the way the game is meant to be played (bc it's literally how the game was on launch, minus the ability to have duplicate heroes)

No role queue is a completely broken game if more than one player picks a tank though. It’s just as silly as mystery or mayhem. We’ve had very low queues playing at night EST.

It wouldn't bother me if they took away all buttons except "all" but it's still 1-2-2. "This is the game of overwatch. Flexing is the game"

How do you count down at the start? I see some players using a voice emote to do it

headcase posted:It wouldn't bother me if they took away all buttons except "all" but it's still 1-2-2. "This is the game of overwatch. Flexing is the game" This, with some amount of "bad luck" protection where you always play tank once and DPS + support twice for every 5 games, is exactly what I want competitive queue OW to be Save role queue for Master and up or something where you're a bit more specialized I guess

They should reward flex queue more. 1000 xp per game and you'll see people grind their battlepass. 100 xp is nothing. 1 level per 100 matches.

Higher ranks in every game have a longer queue than other modes. OW was particularly bad though nowhere near the old LoL with 45 minute queues.
