Top tips for playing the Indian beauty again my friends, third day. Part one:

Here's an example:
Red in the image show places you can put the sentries that will successfully slow most characters without them knowing they're there until they're already being slowed at least once.
Blue is where you should be placing sentries depending on the way you're falling back, on the way to set up on the point, because them being destroyed shows enemy flankers. (There's another point under the bridge where you can put a sentry on the ground behind a bag of sand(?))

• Sentries are not always for killing players
Sometimes you can set a single one up just to scout whether someone has went through a specific area. It's not always a good idea as 6 sentries are sometimes not enough on certain points.

• Walls and ceilings are not always good
Placing them on the ground not only tricks some people because it's even more unexpected, but also sometimes allows angle leverage or hiding positions.

• All in one spot is truly poo in the loo
Trying to garner straight kills as Symmetra rarely ever works, and only against retards. Using them primarily to slow on clutch positions is most important.

• Force angles so enemies come out of cover
Obviously you don't want your sentries to be in plain view of someone when they are in cover, because they can destroy them easily. But you want to place them so these people don't see it even when they stutter-step around.

• Look to place your sentries initially behind certain objects
If you can place them inside of things that get destroyed or knocked about like cardboard boxes (like in Hollywood), do it. People can't see them at all until they're being hit already.

• Be aggressive but choose your battles
Go in on multiple enemies when your team goes in. Try to stay close but on the side or behind enemies at all times. If you're ever in melee range of an enemy, use your primary, even if it's a Reaper or McCree. John Cena.

This mystery heroes brawl is fucking fantastic.

The other ones have just been gimmicks I've gave a quick go and then left, but this is really fun.

>at one point in the game i had 5 gold medals

...

thanks for reminding me that there's always going to be someone with a shittier, emptier life than me.

VAPE MEITION

haha holy fuck

topkek to you good sir

Mei's so fucking cute i cant hate her no matter how much cancer her kit is.

>get absolutely stomped by a decent mei player
>solo kills the entire team
>after every kill she voice lines "A-MEI-ZING!"
>then bunny hops away like a cute bbw

God damnit

>mercy doing her job allows her ulti to charge quickly
STOP THE FUCKING PRESSES HOLY FUCK

Why are they both black dudes?

>no search filters

No Blizzard, I am not okay with joining a KOTH game that is already in progress.

Does anyone have point requests for good sentry positions?

Part two:
• Always shoot your secondary
Your secondary fire is incredibly damaging and shreds through barely mobile characters like Reinhardt and a shooting D.Va. Always shoot at the sides of walls to punish stutter-stepping, which is your biggest enemy.

• You don't always need to fully charge
Shooting constant middle charges can trick enemies and think they're a lot more damaging than they are. They're still relatively strong though, and can still really hurt. Plus, more 50% might hit more often.

• Always keep an eye on the deaths
Make sure you know who needs to receive shields immediately, don't let them skip past you.

• Your teleporter is not your #1 priority
Place it when you get the opportunity - like when enemies are dead - but never go out of fights or potential important battles to do it. Think of the position before you go.

• NEVER over-defend your portal
Any heroes that can flank around and destroy the portal probably will. One or two sentries can deter them, but ultimately if you place all of them, it's likely they'll be destroyed anyway.

• STOP PLAYING SYMMETRA
If your sentries are destroyed faster than you can replace them, the enemy team is probably too privy to your plays. If you're being pushed to the control point too quick, switch when you die. Symmetra only has the power to work well with team synergy when it comes to mass-defence, and sentries being found and constantly destroyed renders you completely useless after the half-way point. There's nothing worse than being a Symmetra who has nothing to do but shield people and die in her only useful position - melee range - on the point

the best part is that occasionally your team will actually have a healer

Well fuck

>36 elims
>only 8 were fan the hammer

Im not saying 36 is anything above average but feels good to not be cancerous dogshit

If you could turn that off literally noone would join in-game and you'd be in constant 5v6s

>overshite

>so shit with Zarya, can't kill one Mei holding down M1
Is this why everyone's picking Winston?

Wanna bang?

why are all the mercy waifufags shitskins who are obsessed with white girls?

>KOTH solo queue

>a good Mei

lmao

>12-16

actually, by shitter standards, you're a pretty "good" mei after all

Did you still use your flashbang?

>Hiro's pathetic attempts at moderation

Playing McCree automatically makes you cancerous dogshit, sorry

Healsluts is just a meme, you don't actually have to be a vapid bimbo.

>literally anybody sends me a friend request

Too much pressure.

too bad bitch, you're going right back in it.

In a game where heroes like tracer and genji exist why wouldn't I? I dont think the bang is broken on its own to be honest. its just part of a bullshit kit

>It's a "Mei stands in random fucking rooms waiting to freeze people" episode.

Fuck this cute bitch, her kit is complete cancer.

>Solo tank Roadhogs
>Genjis and Hanzos
>People refusing to Support
>People refusing to play a Tank (Unless it's Roadhog)
>People not concerned at all with having a proper comp
>People not standing on objectives. Ever.
>Mcrees everywhere now that everybody knows he's broken
>Pharahs everywhere in the sky with pocket Mercys, but nobody to counter them because their whole team is rolling over yours, forget about anybody having the time to sit there and pluck them out of the sky.

Why is this getting to be so unfun?

This weekly brawl is fucking dogshit, even more so than the last week one

post your rank m8

Mei is a bitch as Zarya 1v1, that's pretty normal

>Have 4 gold medals as Reinhardt on KotH
>Oh but there's a level 9 hanzo and a level 7 genji on your team better luck next game haha xxDD

>He doesn't know that playing McSkill automatically makes you cancerous dogshit

I bet you used more than 36 flashbangs :^)

so are you just like really lonely or what

Reminder that Blizzard has absolutely no idea how to handle D.Va.

Zarya can't leap three continents to get that white womyn booty.

The flashbang isn't broken. McCree's purpose is to be monstrously good at 1v1 and keep flankers like Genji and Tracer in check.

The issue is that his fan does a shitload of damage which makes him really good at shredding tanks and whatnot, which isn't his intended purpose.

>play mccree
>click on enemy heads
>they die
I don't think fan nerfs are going to hurt this hero much

I hope the trash gamer D. Va meme persists for at least two more weeks.

It is fun.

What if they make a Third person MOBA mode?

All new 60+ heroes with moba abilities y/n

>after a long day of heroing these sluts send you this image and tell you to come over
Do you ignore them? Or accept?

>D.Va getting a buff

ill take it!

...

Mercy's ult isn't really that overpowered though. It's good in some situations, but it's rarely amazing. Suicide runs never work because they'll run in there, die, maybe killing one person, get rezzed, and then die again.

Besides, Mercy dies basically instantly from every hero, and she can't rez from beyond the grave. She's counted by basically everyone.

Just reached 1000 currency, thoughts?

That's what HotS is for.

There is literally nothing wrong with Genji. Get out of the trench and you'll be watching them hang around spawn picking anyone off that is squishy.

...

This brawl is fun as fuck

No idea, probably like 9000. I only have 25 hours since the release

Played against doublemei today

Hanzo feels like a pretty good answer based on how the game went. If you shoot her in the fat head, she goes down in one hit. If you hit her once, she usually panicfreezes and you can line up an instant headshot for when she pops out

Scatter arrow is also instant kill if you are gud with footshots

>he gets this angry about a game instead of having fun

Should I play on a higher sensitivity? I usually play on a low sensitivity from csgo but since I have to look fucking everywhere for enemies I feel like I need it.

>Your teleporter is not your #1 priority

spoken like a truly brain dead shitter.

time to kill yourself, my man.

If I've finished all my shit I'll go over

what's this game like? worth the cash?
why do i hear lots of moba lingo being thrown around it? it looks pretty casual

Slowly tweak your sensitivity up based on what's comfy for you. Some characters benefit very heavily from it, like Reinhardt, since you don't need precision aim with him. You can also tune them per character. Widow can have her normal and scoped sensitivities different from each other

I hate the fact that I'm slowly turning into a D.Va main, at least on maps where it makes sense.

I keep trying to resist, but 20+ streaks and a 70%-ish and climbing winrate are hard to ignore.

Remember in 2009 when Valve added the Sandman to TF2? Remember how it was total fucking bullshit and everyone hated it? Remember how the pro players banned it from tournaments? Remember how eventually Valve had to nerf it but it's STILL bullshit and STILL banned?

I don't think Blizzard was paying attention back then.

just remove mccree

is it ever better to use zarya's grav nades in close quarters than the beam? It feels like its killing fatter characters like roadhog, winston, and reindhardt quicker

Play TF2 and see if you like it. One of hte major defining ideas of TF2 was "no one will have an assault rifle" (the sniper's SMG has terrible accuracy so it's more like a shotgun anyway)

Now imagine that game without the spy, but instead they added an assault rifle and a couple different kinds of medic.

There you go.

Immensely frustrating without friends and poor character balance makes it more frustrating unless you're playing the best characters in the game.

I keep getting heroes I don't care about and/or I'm bad with, like Mercy, Genji, Hanzo or D.Va

Basically anyone that is not Junkrat, or Roadhog.

>playing against 3 Zaryas in random brawl
>an army of angry butch lesbians wielding pink lightsabers with the intention of shoving them up your asshole
>can't focus any of them down because shields

Thank God this isn't Tier 1 meta. This is so goddamn frustrating but also kind of arousing.

>He has fun having loss after loss after loss followed by a single win, followed by more losses
>90% of the time it's a steamroll thanks to absolutely horrible comp

Do you guys think Zeny's hp should just be flat buffed (200, or 175 via 25 armor)?

If it gets too out of control, what if ally discord orb damage was cut to 25 or 30% increase while Zenyatta's damage remained at 50%?

This reinforces Zeny as a combat support (durability, high DPS) while creating more incentive to coordinate targets with his team.

I just fucking played against a whole fucking team of Meis on defense. NIGGA WE DIDN'T EVEN MAKE IT PAST THE FIRST DOOR WAY IN THE TEMPLE OF ANUBIS!!!!!

And they tagged every fucking thing just to add insult to injury.

>TF2

nobody gives a shit about some dead game, faggot.

>muh TEAM COMP!

won with 5 mccrees and 5 mercies and got too close for comfort with 5 soldiers and 5 pharahs. get good.

tell them im not gay

I thought about six-Zarya strat the other day to counter 3-junkrat spam

That's the fucking point. It's to make you a more well rounded player. If you want to play as junkrat or roadhog, hit quickplay.

Depends on who you're fighting and how good your aim is. If you're fighting Genji/Tracer, blast that shit at your feet. If it's another tank then laser is fine it does far more damage than the grenades

>he thinks only winning can be fun

just relax. it's a video game. it doesn't matter.

I want Soldier76 to pound my ass

t. dva main

Someone please post the hitbox webms

I played Anubis Defense against a 6 Zarya attack and it was utterly terrifying. My team of new players had no idea how to react even though I was telling them what to do.

Like shooting ducks in a barrel.

>doesn't have fun playing a game unless he beats up little kids

A U T I S M

...

>hope for fun shenanigans in the new brawl
>even more widows and bastions and torbjorns than ever

I wanna see a fucking jacked Zenyatta

post yfw you do this

but thats true you dumbass

thats like saying all heros are only important because their ultimate.
And if you think symmetra is only important for her ultimate, then take your own advice.

time to kill yourself

Overwatch blows right now.

There's only so much repetition one can take before the game feels like a total drag.

I think we need a one man army mode or for the rotating game mode to be put on quick queue. Because this is awful.

>join a match where a bunch of memers all go widowmaker
>say fuck it and join along
>getting our ass handed to us of course
>suddenly everyone on my team leaves/got booted at once and new teammates joined in

What the fuck, is there some automatic boot system or something?

>that titty bounce

Instead I realized I can't play as anything as these two, plus Torbjörn. Everyone else is boring or ineffective

wat
just doing what i can to make people not so shit at the shittiest hero in the game
