So this game is right fun. First every game went 10-kill streak, got a quadrakill with D.Va's mech bomb, and got play of the game.

How the hell do I Genji though? His sword swipe/dash does so little damage. My first thought was that I should just soften people up with the stars then dash in. But whenever I do that I'm just a sitting duck because my sword slash has like an 8 second cooldown. So am I just supposed to run up onto vertical terrain and throw stars forever?

Also, what are the points besides the skins? 75/250/1000 obviously relate to cost or quality, but it didn't look like I get points (Like you get IP in LoL or whatever) for match wins. Does that stuff come exclusively from Loot Boxes?

The sword slash comes back up to full when you kill someone

It's a really loving good thing Lucio's fun to play because otherwise I'd get annoyed at being the support so much of the time

E: I live for wall jumping up to that high up Widowmaker and knocking them off their perch from behind into my teammates

I've been playing like utter poo poo the last 3 days and every game my team loses.

I think it's related to the poo poo I'm dealing with IRL right now or to the lack of playtime caused by the aforementioned poo poo, I wonder if I should take a break from the game for a bit.

This is the terrible secret to enjoying Lucio. :ssh:

The good secret is that he is one of if not the most mobile character in the game.

It's really fun to wall jump up to a sniper perch and knock them off it

What part of Lucio's gameplay do you find fun? What decisions are you making moment-to-moment while playing him?

Which wall do I jump on to get behind the enemy, can I DOOT the enemy from that point and wall jump back to my team safely

E: is the enemy positioned at a point where if I switch to speed boost, I can wall jump behind them and DOOT them into a cliff

Vermain posted:

What are the benefits to getting behind an enemy as Lucio?

If they go after you they're turning their back on the enemy team and if they don't you can DOOT them out of cover to make it easier for your team to do things before wall jumping back to heal

Is it worth getting a 144 Hz gaming monitor for this game? I'm playing on a 27" 1440p 60 Hz IPS panel and the upgrade would be a PG279Q which is $800. I have a 980Ti so driving 1440p and 144 FPS is certainly possible. But god drat that's a lot of money...

Why would you need to do this?

If you're not seeking out your counterpart and dropping everything to kill them you are having fun wrong. With Pharah, this is why you are required to bind "Shot Down."

It also helps that the majority of the time I'm the better Pharah in that fight, so I can help my team out a lot by taking her out first, one mid-air rocket is usually enough for me to get back to whatever it was I needed to do for the team (usually try to pick off their Mercy)
