/owg/ Overwatch General

Here. As a solo shitter I'll play 1 game per day just to save the rank until they fix koth.

I'm sick of ranked already. Back to mindless quickplay.

57% winrate here
not touching ranked until they fix koth and zarya

rank 50 solo mercy player here

SHUT UP OMNICSUPPORTER

Vote REAPER FOR PRESIDENT 2016!

Here, the true average, 5/5 rank 50 lad.

got a highlight from lootbox
>notice the junkrat
wtf????

>dis gon b gud
>get stomped
WHAT'S THE POINT OF STACKING IF YOU AND YOUR FRIENDS ARE SHITTERS

luciod to 52
I blame my teams :^)

>Zarya
What's wrong with her?

>lose THREE FUCKING GAMES in my placement matches because of the FUCKING RETARDED coinflip putting me on attack 3 times in a row
>good fucking luck pushing down the point in 2 minutes against 6 defensive heroes

WHO THE FUCK MADE THIS SYSTEM AND THOUGHT IT'S FAIR AND BALANCED

FUCK

most people play with actual friends, not just "good people they know"

Just need a few more wins and I'll be there.

Her alt fire is broken, it snapshots damage done. So as long as you only use alt fire after reaching 100% energy, you will continue doing the same damage even if your energy goes down completely.

>start competitive

>Attack

>lock in Hanzo

>team gets super mad

>I get 4x Gold

>they don't upboat my card

post yfw

the single strongest tank in the game especially when everyone runs lucio + mercy

you will never kill them

did you win?

So you just never right click until you get 100?

Does it work on multiple people or just one?

Weird, I thought your quick play mmr was the basis for ranked

We /lost8outof10/ matches now.

yes, but only after I switched to Reinhardt, but psst...

After you reach 100% damage won't go down as long as you keep using only alt fire. Damage affects everyone, the mechanic of losing damage along with energy is just bugged.

Forced 50 needs to gtfo

It snapshots for every person individually until hes dead.

I've lost all my matches so far due to low-level retards and people quitting.

Every match I have ended up with gold kills, objective eliminations and damage.

Competitive is a joke.

>competitive is just QP with much longer and less rewarding matches and people being bigger assholes

that other guys an idiot

it doesn't matter if you left click or not

the bug is that her right click does 94 damage regardless of energy unless it drops to 0

the alt-fire also has to be a direct hit for the damage bug to happen

And by person I mean enemy, obviously.

i told you weeks ago that zarya was op

no one believed me

anybody up for some games on yurop?
i have no friends
leave your id i'll add you :3

what did you expect? wwwww

but if you grind for REALLY long you will get 1 shiny weapon

I don't mind losing, hell, I don't even mind getting stomped. What I do mind is playing 30 minutes in a very close match with both teams barely winning, and then losing the coin flip for Sudden Death and losing an entire rank. That is not satisfying and honestly fuck ranked, I'm off to quick play.

It's better at higher ranks.

>mfw plebians think they will ever be good without a 144hz display

>tfw you don't even make the first check point on a payload map

>win
>get 50% rank
>lose
>derank an entire rank

LOL whats the point of playing?

It's busted right now

I am level 53 and I never got the toxic people or the genji/hanzo instalockers though I did get a lot of mei instalockers. A lot of people I played with are open to switches also. I was in a party with two other people and the other 3stack on our team agreed to a double winston cheese for the first point on hanamura.

>queue for ranked
>playing what my team needs
>making calls in voice chat
>win game
>team thanks me for contribution to victory
>it was on nepal
>rank goes up less than 5%
t-t-thanks blizz...

>want to grind points for muh golden guns
>don't want shitters trying to shit talking my tanked mmr thanks to spamming ranked as a solocuck

Fucking hell, i don't want to socialize in this game, i just wish i could chill and solo my to the upper brackets of mmr. Even then, i'd only be able to play when 2 or 3 skilled players on my friend list were available if i want to have quality games, which is bullshit.

>Mercy, Lucio, S76, Roadhog, Reaper, Pharah are the main meta picks now
>They're all braindead and boring as fuck aside from Pharah
This is one boring fucking metagame.

So the mmr gain for koth style maps is bugged right? There is no way in hell they thought that'd be appropriate right?

>Dynamic matchmaking

This was the moment I knew it was all over

There is literally no point in playing past 60 alone. None. Might as well boot up an MMO and try to raid the latest content alone using only your fucking mouse.

Congrats on discovering the difference between players that like OW as a casual team shooter and players who only follow a meta/pro guide so a victory splashes on their screen.

Don't get too vocal or quick play will become shit again.

>7:1 in placement so far
>67% winrate in QP after 25 hours

Forced 50 is a meme for shitters, made by shitters.

how many team kills have you been a part of, /owg/?

>tfw when you constantly crash people to make them lose MMR

YOU gotta be a SUPER PLAYER, user-kun!

What's the lowest comp rank anyone here has gotten?
I saw a guy placed @ 36 after losing 10 yesterday.

Did ptr have this koth bug?

Placement matches is cancer, this is a FACT.
You still get queued with shitters but at least these shitters still have 10% of their brain function.
At the end of those 10 matches you'd probably get placed on a rank you don't deserve.
What is even the purpose of placement matches? Why not just let everyone start at rank 1 and let them work they up like they should.

it's a pretty damn big middle finger to solo-queueing. hurts qp too

Neotemplar#21467
No friends in Europoor servers too ;_;

Yes, the stat feedback for koth is broken and only giving a fraction of what it should

Some people are saying this could have skewed people's placements as well if they got a lot of koth maps in their 10 games

Of course this was already reported and acknowledge in the PTR but fuck bugs or just taking koth out of the rotation let's release it broken :)

Forced 50 absolutely exists if you don't stack

...

>it's koth on comp episode
Why even bother trying. Fuck you blizzard

rank 50 here

I placed at 46 though and have less than 20 games played

holy fuck.

>Playing comp
>Entire team's levels are in the 30s

We lost, if you hadn't already guessed.

>25 hours

So when are you going to start playing Overwatch?

>solo-queueing

actually make that playing anything but a six-stack

You know that just means YOU are bad, right?

What happens if all 12 players leave the fucking koth game in ranked?

How do you guys find the courage to play competitive?

level = time played
level != skill

you must be really fucking bad if you get matched with level 30s

kaplan gets a raise

If you haven't already I'd stay away from it until the big kinks are ironed out

Literally the exact same shit as QP.

Whoever leaves last gets +5 MMR

Everyone else gets demoted.

Coinflip confirmed gone for Season 2

!= does not equal ≠

>Queue up as a 6 stack
>"Oh man, gonna be tough fighting other 6 stacks"
>Not a single team we fought was even remotely coordinated enough to be a 6 stack

I raised like 6 ranks but if I was on the receiving end I would be feeling insurmountable rage. The fact that Blizzard thought this was okay at all (lmao RIOT did it! XD) is a fucking joke.

After playing league of shitters for so long you get pretty much immune to ranked anxiety.

yeah it does

>win a game
>can feel the forced 50 drawing near

This meme needs to end.

this has been known for a while

the big issues are still koth giving no rank, and lasting just as long or longer than other modes, also disconnecting, reconnecting and still getting a loss even if you win

I've lost every match so far despite carrying the team.

>tfw place rank 68
>friends place at 69 and 65, want to play some more games today but I say I don't want to and go to bed
>wake up to hate messages
>they lost a shit ton of games and are 64 and 58 now
>you did this to us
Don't see how this is my fauly, but okay.

its less about the courage more about being constant, playing this shit gives me bad league of legends vibes i do not like because people keep using analogies that trigger me

Game is pretty much not worth playing in this state.

>levels do not mean skill
>lol you are so bad because you get paired with low levels!!!!

>i have never programmed in my life
phpreferencebook.com/samples/equal-sign-operators/

It's not carrying if you don't win, loser.

>pick Reaper
>can't kill anything unless some Roadhog hugging me or I get a Q drop
