Hana Song!

good stuff

faggots stay away

I got a gtx 1070 on a 1080p 144hz gsync screen. Should I play with 100% render scale to get 144 constant fps or 150% and get 80-110 fps?

Fareeha!

Soldiers

>Ehh, he didn't place Platinum?

>How lame!

>Even middle schoolers are placing Diamond nowadays!

>Ahahaha!

The hunter sets a trap for his prey...

Is this image a shop?

100%

why would you ever sacrifice performance for visual quality

High framerate for this game. Unless you're really really annoyed by aliasing.

100% so you can max your frames.

>Memerodent throws trap in snow
>Clips under it so you can barely see it

[Triggered]

I would do this if I know I'm playing good, and I know that at least I need more knowledge.

The map was Gibraltar. I used McCree on attack, tried to stay behind his shield and move the payload while attacking the best I could.

In defense I used Mei, they said that wasn't a good choice for that map, but I'm not sure why.

Actually yeah, kinda, played some TF2, for only for some weeks. What can I say, I love single player games, and some time ago my internet was horrible.

Thanks.

post jamie

what's a good average healing for mercy in comp?

No, R3ap3r is really that thick

But..but..my placement matches were filled with memeing fags using attack Symmetra!

Anyone else feel like Mei's buffs are gonna get reverted?
Because all I see are people being salty over her in my games.
Blizzard was right, you really can't save the defense heroes.
Normies just can't into fighting them

>They will never add a silence mechanic to the existing defense heroes due to being "unfun"

Depends, KoTH 10-15k, 4 rounds minimum 20k

Payload and Points should be 7-13k, 20-25k if 4 rounds

100k

Uselessly high because a Lucio can only have healed 3k but his team has already pushed into victory.

>Attackers don't get an extra five minutes to push the payload on Gibraltar anymore

Long overdue.

Thanks to the faggots last night I have now officially fetish for abusing s76

why would you use more than 100% render scale?

Also you definitely want your FPS to be consistently above your monitor Hz

G-Sync is a meme that adds input lag. It's only useful if you are playing some super high graphics single player game where you care more about the eye candy than performance. You'd rather want to have plenty more FPS than your screen refresh rate is and not use G-Sync.

>tfw genji tries to dash past the trap now

they have stun
they have sleep
they have fucking wallhacks/autoaim

how in the hell can silence be more "unfun" than those?

I want to hold hands with Fareeha!!!

The Overwatch Masters Club, formerly the 60&over club, is alive and well. Masters and those aspiring are welcome.

discord.gg/RV5YyjX

elo hell is back

Have they already fixed the problem with rankings for healsluts like me? Or is this just gonna be delayed for next season?

tfw can't constantly zone enemy teams with high noon anymore

BECAUSE MAH BUTTONS AREN'T WORKING! GAME IS BROKEN!

Is your placement determined solely by your win/loss ratio in placements or something else?

Can I aspire to be good in competitive if my ping is 140 ms?

No one in /owg/ is actually ranking Silver, right? No one is that bad, right?

But rank 60 in the old system should correspond to rank 3000 in the new system, so Diamond.

The game should be matching you with people who're at the same ping.

your quickplay/previous season mmr
your in-game performance

i believe win/loss has less to do with your placements than those

Can they put a cooldown on jumping?

>done 5 placements
>2 win/3 loss
>too nervous to continue

Is soldier worth picking again?

is it alright if i play my placements solo?

And a cooldown on shooting, I die too fast when the enemy is shooting me

When will the waifu wars end!? We need peace!

You couldn't do it with 15 ms don't worry.

Is Pharmercy viable again? My team got our asses kicked by a really good Pharmercy combo last night on Hanamura.

Pharmercy best ship

post cute stuff.

Only if you want to go 5-4.

take the discord out of the OP

Come on now.

>2.7k
am i gonna make it

I started at 2-3 and ended 7-3, you just gotta believe

Bunnyhopping is the dumbest shit, especially in a game with such retarded models. Genji is essentially invincible when mashing spacebar.

No, that would feel really clunky and awkward
As a general rule, every character should feel "good" to play as, and Genji is no exception even though he still needs nerfs

How do I deal with hog as Zenny
I always just get hooked and instant killed

genji double jump looks especially hilarious in slow-motion

the model is fucking elastic

We aim to cultivate good talent (or something nah nobody gives a fuck). 60s became a trench by mid-season due to mindless grinders climbing through sheer 51% winrate. Plus "Overwatch Diamond Dads" lost the vote for a new name.

Stay out of his range, preferably behind people/Reinhardt, and give him discord and shoot him.

Use your teammates/meatshields effectively.

Don't frontline as Zen

>tfw you get caught in the trap

>I always just get hooked and instant killed

...and who doesnt this happen to? besides tanks

Which effects in graphics options I can set off to get most FPS, which are most "unnoticeable" changes comparing low to epic?

Okay, so you just upped the rank requirement. I thought I was missing something.

You're Rein and your DPS can't do shit. Do you switch tanks or switch to DPS?

>Get caught in a trap with no mine on it
>Junkrat overextends to try and kill me and dies for it

out fucking played

Serious question, should I play (and learn) Mercy or Lucio as the go-to support for every game? I plan on pushing high but this is the route I want to go.

Lucio might be the answer, but there are times I just get frustrated by his worthless "healing."

You're grounded for like a full second in between jumps if you fail to time your jump spam correctly.

So, if you're losing games but your stats are really high/getting golds and such your mmr losses are mitigated?

Tracey is a good cook!

Don't get hooked, stay back

>pick healer
>no dmg/nobody deals with ganjiiiman
>pick dps
>no healing

Only constant...

So placements result can be potentially get tainted by a bad final rank in the previous season?
Wish I hadn't found out until the season ended that Lucio's scoring is bugged, and apparently is still bugged.

>be hyped for eichencuck and less genji players
>patch arrives
>eichencuck is shit and there's still at least two genjis every game

its like this game is shit or something

I generally switch to DPS. Sometimes I'll switch tanks, but if it's a situation where you need a good DPS then switching tanks isn't going to fix that problem generally.

yes.

i ended 4-6 and got like 3100-ish. it definitely counts more than just winning/losing

>mfw I lost all my placement games

Comrades

It's better than lose every non soloque game, its not that my groups more or less skilled than me, that's just what happened when we qued together

>NEED HEALING
>they won't get in LoS
>they're the other side of the map on their own
>SHIT ANA

Just play 76

Or maybe the one constant shitty player in all those games..was you.

>you're Junkrat too
>you're better at aiming grenades than the Junkrat who trapped you

Redoing the projectile nerf would screw over way more than Mei
Maybe they tinker with her ult some more, but I can't really see that happening as just catching people with it doesn't do all that much on its own (just like Graviton Surge but worse really) and it's not OP enough to make her a mandatory pick or anything

So did the update actually help to get rid of the cyborg weebs?

Don't mind Logman being back tbqh, at least you can give him hot monkey dong.

Not like you can edit posts. Just wait for the next thread.

Nah senpai healing isn't pointless, I love playing Mercy on Numbani while defending the payload

it's not like we have a ranked requierement, the discord is just focused on ranked and competitive in general, everyone is welcome

Worst time to be a Tracer main
>getting caught in the crossfire of logs, icebergs and watermelons

weebs = not gone

does she have a lazy eye?

No, literally nothing changed. He's still in every game and is still just as obnoxious.

No he's still in every match on every map and game mode

>refuserodent thinks he's a better memer than me.

i really hate bad junkrat players. its not hard to hit someone with a grenade when ur bomb is on cd ffs

Harambe could fight ninja man just fine even before the nerf tho

lol
