Calmly filtering casuals with each left click.

>uninstall game
>kinda want to play
>don't want to fall into Blizzard's $40 trap

Reminder if you are crying about three of the lowest skill floor and simple to counter heroes in the game maybe you should play more.

you should report that, blizz want this game to be a safe space so that guy can probably get chat banned if not worse pretty easily for saying shit like that

You can stick that shit to people?

>Run up against Reindhart, Bastion, Mercy combo
>I'm playing Mei
>MFW I freeze them all and the three stack of fuccbois have to watch each other get raped

Feels good shutting down cheesesy combo faggotry

How in the shit is Lucio balanced

Why does Symmetra's in-game model look like such hot garbage compared to her concept art? Her skin's too light, she's got a beak, and her jawline makes her look like a tranny.

Name one character with a relevant skill floor
They're all baby tier easy to play

Yeah I would do that except I'm not a thin skinned little faggot. Plus I'm especially not gonna report a dude for making me laugh.

Tracer is the best waifu.

Tracer needs some amount of skill to play.

How is that dragon ultimate balanced

>le fat jewish csgo pro

we don't care

Whose ass do you look at while you wait for your game, /owg/?

Are you unable to see the absurd bullet spread she has?
You have to get in there.

How did you not know that?

That's like the first thing you learn about her tbhfamiligia.

tracer, people were saying she was shit and needed a damage buff when the game first came out

Guys how do I counter McCree? They always seem to fuck my asshole raw.

Dva is a shitty Winston
Reaper us a shitty McCree

Everyone else is unique and has their place. Other than their ults, Dva and Reaper got nothing going for them.

>play zenyatta
>team can't deal with the tracer and reaper behind who kill me every spawn

that's when I go lucio so I can at least get to the die zone quicker

why the fuck do payload and capture matches have so much fucking time

>6 minutes to capture the first defense
>first payload escort has 3 minutes
>escort it to the 2nd checkpoint
>get 20 minutes to finish
>even if you fuck up you get 2 hours of overtime

give me a character thats a good pick in any game

>Pharah with a Mercy on her ass keeps talking hot shit

I sighed when I saw Mercy's character release and I'm sighing now, exact same problem TF2 had. Le pocket medic, very balance.

They just run around and pick people.

>it's a he pressed Q and got potg episode

Genji

Genji's thong ass

lucio, mercy, reinhardt

Bastion isn't a tank, and Reinhardt did nothing wrong.

Hate to break it to you, but there is no best waifu.

All of them have moaned in pleasure as they have accepted another man's penis inside of them.

Accepting that is degenerate behaviour.

More like Winston is a shitty D.Va

it's slow as shit and he announces it for five years

it's pretty hard to try to protect a 150hp shit hero with no mobility

Unironically, 76.

Sprint + Insta-hit ult is pretty bullshit.

I said lowest, as in "heroes for people who can't move and shoot at the same time"

That said D.Va, Tracer, Zarya and Zenyatta need some effort put into them to get any results

When I play Zen generally I kill the Tracer.

Discord click click dead. Easy as fuck.

Every now and then she'll bomb me when i don't have my ult but every other time I kill them easy.

Roadhog

Not only does Reaper have a terrible design, but he's probably the most braindead character in the game. He's literally just spam mouse 1 to kill, and his shotguns do ridiculous damage so he gets away with it.

Lucio
You are almost never going to have too many supports on your team

Deal with them yourself you noncontributing shithole.

you forgot hanzo who is a shitty widowmaker

in fact every defense hero is a shitty widowmaker

the sound cue tells you where it's coming from so it's very easy to avoid

the dragon also moves rather slowly

a lot of stuff in this game is balanced around the assumption that you can accurately pin point where certain sounds are coming from, so if you are some retard playing with music on or something i suggest you not to do that

Tracer, zenyatta. That's probably about it. Most characters have a pretty low skill floor since it's a blizzard game, but the skill cap for some of them seems decently high. Like a good widowmaker, good roadhog etc.

heroes to pick:
junkrat
reinhardt
mercy
lucio

heroes to avoid:
dva
hanzo
widowmaker
genji

Why are the servers so shit? I keep getting killed five steps around the corner by hitscan weapons and the fucking killcam shows I never made it through the doorway.

Blizzard doesn't expect people to actually pay for this garbage, do they?

Reaper is a better consistent tank counter than McCree, McCree is good at killing tanks but once he's blown his load on fan the hammer he's pretty helpless, Reaper can ambush people and escape better.

Mei, placing ice walls strategically and using long range icicle shots takes skill.

This game is fun but guaranteed kill ultimates where it's "lol press ultimate to win game" kind of ruin the fun for me.

Junkrat

This

Honestly I thought this tickrate shit was a meme but the amount of times I've been hit by a Hanzo or Widow when I was easily out of sight is pathetic

Literally every character can get behind mercy and just kill her. Its not like people are actually aware of any movement in this game.

roadhog and tracer, both self sustaining, both huge pick potential and damage, both not hard countered by anything really.

Roadhog isn't actually very good against a coordinated team, he has no shields like any of the other tanks to absorb damage so you basically wind up feeding the enemy ult charge, and it's very easy for a character to just stay out of hook range and unload into your massive hitbox.

Are you kidding me? Reaper's design is fucking TOP. He's so unapologetically edgy that he overshoots being lame so far that he becomes kind of cool.

That's cause they don't want the game to end up like LoL's community, so they need to go full commie anti-freespeech mode to prevent it.
IT'S THE ONLY WAY

>standing inside a building as mcree
>reinhardt charges me
>he runs into the doorway
>it still kills me when i was 5 feet away from him
yea ok i guess

I love to see my team mates doing well!

A team working together is greater than the sum of its parts!

Characters you see in EVERY match
>bastion
>Roadhog
>Tracer
>Widowmaker
>Soldier

The one you NEVER see
>McCree (since you actually have to aim)
>Symmetra (only first time newbies trying out, since needs too much setup)
>Winston (great char, dunno why no one plays it)
>Zarya (because dyke slav?)

>It's a Renhardt walks backwards with shield on on offense episode.

I don't think Bastion is overpowered but he is extremely unbalanced.

If your team doesn't know how to play against him, you'll get wrecked by him and only him.

The enemy team doesn't even need more skill than putting a reinhart in front of him.

If your team does know how to kill him, his team is going to get wrecked because they will be playing with death weight.

I know the point is to change heroes on the fly but we all have seen those rewards that refuse to adapt to The match and there is nothing worst than a bad Bastion.

>post yfw it's high noon

Zen only has his skill floor so high because a just about every character in the game can kill him in two hits or less

Reaper is way too edgy, more so than shadow the hedgehog.

>mfw its highnoon

works on my end :^)

Why do you pick mercy instead of an active healer, tho?

>Babby easy to play, requires no effort
>Requires team co-ordination to eliminate unless you're Genji

I'm not sure why people are defending this

even reinhardt's shield isnt enough
bastion tears through it and then you have their entire team exposed

REMOVE
CRIT
FROM
TURRET

>NOT ENOUGH TIME IN BETWEEN MATCHES TO POST ON /owg/

REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

I see a lot of Mcrees. Too few Zennyattas and Zaryas though.

>someone picks mercy before you can

>play support
>team constantly runs past a roadhog camping in a corner, gripping and instagibbing squishy characters
>yell at them through text for literally 1/4 of the fucking game to help kill him
>absolutely nothing comes from this
>end up just managing to move past him after about three minutes of torture

it's utterly amazing how hard it is for these shitters to know where your own team is, or to at least understand team play. then again, im not surprised given the fact there's no minimap and there's no easy way to actually see your team through walls and shit.

I shouldn't be getting forced to change my character as a fucking SUPPORT because my team can't kill something after begging them to do so for a good portion of the game, if not the entire early game

Fucking kill yourself.
I swear to god if this game goes the league of legends route of making a competitive game into a hugbox and fake kindness i'll be so pissed.

Cheesing is a thing defenders do pretty much all the time, which is not made better by the fact that class stacking is a thing. In general overtime lasts about 15-20 seconds on average.

On the other hand a good attacking team can fucking stomp a mediocre defending team in less than three minutes.ยจ

Git gud, stop being bad.

Which is why he's awesome. If they had half-assed it, I'd hate him, but they put all their chips on black and I can respect that.

When you're just starting out it feels like the game is press q to win, but it really isn't.

Hanzo ult is a noobie sweeper yes, but smart teams will hear the freight train coming and sidestep it. Same with McCree, Pharah, D.Va and Reaper ults.

>dont have lucio to give speed boost
>enemy team at point before us
>get fucked

so what causes this?

20 tick rate?

bad netcode/lag compensation?

He can be oneshot with Widowmaker or anyone doing nice headshot.
His gun is only good for suppression fire.

this

what's max level?

I've only played open beta and I'm 38, feels really fast. unlimited or what?

Is Widowmaker the easiest sniper to play as in video gaming history?

>ctr+f bastion threads after waiting a few hours
>all those results
holy shit did reddit rename its site? Do you fucking babies get rekt by a Bastion player this much? Sure theyre a little annoying but thats as far as they go
