Brosnan posted:It's not bad but no one reads it because it's mostly marketing materials (which is good when it's a hypebuilding prerelease thread, but less so when people start playing it). Then they ask the same dumb questions over and over bc they didn't wade through screenshots of maps to find out what the difference between blue and yellow HP is. They're not going to read the OP anyway

Mercy gets her ult up really fast. When I started playing Mercy I was really conservative with it and now half my resses are a like one guy. There's really no point in saving it when you are going to have it up on the next push anyway.

Disgusting Coward posted:Just out of interest, what's everyone's average accuracy sitting at? I have a weird conviction that I can't hit poo poo as Soldier 76, but I'm sitting at 55% average accuracy which is pretty good, no? Very low because with infinite ammo there is no reason not to spam constantly.

If you can consistently gank a widowmaker as a reaper then that widowmaker probably wasn't worth ganking in the first place

Manatee Cannon posted:but you can do that in a regular game and actually get real practice by playing it for a while instead of randomly, occasionally, if the game lets you? who cares if pubbies complain about you. it's not good practice to play as something for one life like once or twice an hour Chances are the other people are terrible at their respective heroes so you tend to accomplish more even on heroes you are garbage with. When I'm playing a normal game and just dying and dying as Tracer it's not fun at all. With random heroes it just changes to a new hero if I'm terrible and die so there's no getting frustrated. I have definitely become a lot better with heroes I wouldn't normally play while playing the random brawl. It also made me realize that I really like playing as Zarya once I got the hang of it.

Baby Babbeh posted:I like the random brawl because it results in matchups you normally don't see and it's hilarious to watch someone who only plays Mcree try to figure out Symetra. I get to play things I normally wouldn't against people who won't immediately faceroll me because they're playing characters they're less comfortable with too. Although the way ults work, the team that lucks into something won't die a lot as usually has a huge advantage. They should probably make the ult charge (or at least a part of it) carry over to the next hero.

Jastiger posted:Hmm i remember a while back i wanted more rocket dmg from Pharah on direct hits. After successfully ambushing snipers and direct hitting them twice, and them not dying. I stand by that. Its ridiculous to shoot them point blank and have them still get away. She should be easy to snipe and have a more punishing presence with her rockets. Pharah rocket direct hit does 120 damage though.

FatSamurai posted:No idea why he was so determined to get me, we had already lost the first round and were at a 50% deficit on the second so it's not like we really had a chance of winning. Aside from the fact that the Winston was doing his job, that's not an unrecoverable situation at all. You can easily go from 0 to a win with a single capture.

Papercut posted:My first time playing Dva was in the random brawl last night, and she is super fun. The fact that you get two lives and you second life is super lethal was great. Just treat the mech as disposable to do some initial softening damage then go crazy with that pistol. If you want to use Dva's pistol just play Mercy

Cephas posted:People seem to really underestimate D.Va's pistol. If they don't burn down your zero suit really quickly, you can get a lot of high-damage headshots off with it because it's so accurate. It's annoying that my favorite gun in the game comes from D.Va's secondary weakling form. I'd totally love it if they went the jet boots/personal barrier route with her. I feel like it could be overpowered to have a perfectly accurate zero-damage-falloff plasma gun in her mech form. Like I said before: if you like D.va's pistol play Mercy

Alkydere posted:As others have said, Bastion becomes incredibly easy for more competent/coordinated players to counter. So do expect him to get a bit weaker as you move on. However...that doesn't mean he's always worthless, just gotta pay attention to enemy team composition and chose someone else if a semi-competent Widow or Genji appears. Lucio's M1 does 64 dps if you hit everything which is really low. That's a pretty anemic truck.
