Until this game implements hats and hat economies it will pale in comparison to the great and mighty game known as TF2, sorry folks.

No guys, we can't let D.va shoot and move at the same time, that would make her an actual flanker.
Blizzard prefers her to be a useless ball of HP that occasionally gets kills when someone from the front line is running back to get a Health Pack and all their abilities are on cool down and they're not paying attention and it's their first game ever and they're four years old.

Lol if you don't know how to properly flank with DVa

I can tell how bad a solo queue game will be based on how far my allies push out during the "prepare for defense" phase.

Fly around flanking opposing teams, and always remember to through up your shield once you attract focused fire. Fly back to your team once that goes down, rinse, repeat, then explode the suit

Jet everyone off the point, gently caress up anyone that gets too close, win any 1v1 you want with good shield use. Snipe people with your plasma pistol. Ez game.

Mostly played as her last night, and she definitely takes some getting used to. Main difficulty curve comes from positioning, both wrt boosting and being close enough to do damage.

Also an excellent use of her talents.

I am always surprised by how good her pistol is.

I'm pretty sure people do this specifically when they do play like poo poo. Way easier to get a rise out of others.

Definitely this. The only time someone is going to troll with gg/ez etc. is when they are at the bottom of the scorecard.

I never said she was bad. She is far better when played against people who dont know what they're up against.

Catching noobs grouped up with her blackhole ultimate is amazing. Can swing a whole round.

I've been thowing "gg close" every game we win. I'm typically the medal winner in every game. Most have been very one-sided.

I bought 100. :shepspends:

I did it after the game went live, I imagine since many other people were looting boxes whatever RNG for legendary skins pumped out quite a bit. I think I ended with 3000+ credits and 9 gold skins.

You're tempting me far too much.

Still waiting for the match where I use Mercy's lshift to float up to a Pharah who gets killed at the height of my jump, I look down, floating gracefully onto the point, and rez 5 teammates at once.

Someone did this at the final stretch of a payload map and then they went on for the cap in overtime. I applauded irl.

I've gotten 3 rez's after jumping off a rooftop, but the glorious team rez still escapes me.

I would have applauded that Mercy as well.

When playing DVa if you fly in, kill 1-2 people, distract the rest of their team, pop your matrix then fly off while your team picks off the distracted team, you've done your job.

Hell even if you only kill 1 or none people but cause 3 or 4 of them to turn and chase you as you fly away you are worth you slot on the team.

This guy gets it.
DVa's role is distract, annoy, whittle down opposing forces, and survive.

If your suit blows up, your laser is pretty handy at picking off enemies, plugging up a doorway with constant fire, and you can get a mech called down relatively quickly if you're aggressive but able to use cover and medkit locations effectively.

D.Va does like 3x more damage than Winston but it requires you to actually track your shots, and if you can do that there's not much reason for you, personally, to be playing a tank. :smuggo:

When the rest of my team is DPS plus a healer, might as well.
