Reminder you shouldn't let Widowmaker catch looking. It's all about those sneaky ninja skills.

Genji Shimada!

they will never know my secret

I fucking hate these sprays and icons. The lootboxes would be much better without them.

How do i Reaper? by the time i'm jumping the enemy from behind my entire team is already dead every single time

DON'T GET CAUGHT WITH YEH BEARD IN THE LETTERBOX

Cutest and best pairing

Post Symmetra/Junkrat

B.va or Junebug?

Neither, legendaries suck.

>Torbjorn tries to be Widow.webm

Junker

What's in the box, /owg/?

neither, her skins are horrible aside from the Summer Games one

doesn't that give them ult faster but not you?
this

Cutest and best pairing

A bomb.

...

A BOMB?

Friendly reminder that swapping is a good measure against getting rekt

yes

it punishes idiots who just pop their ults at the wrong time even more


though it also made Deadeye reload canceling too expensive to pull off, making said ult even more useless

Congrats user but that's not what happened in my case.

I'm not saying I'm God or even that good whatever but that doesn't sync up to me.

fucking what

if plat is slightly above average I loathe to think what the lower ranks are

I bet he was doing his POTG like that

Jamison Fawkes!

>when the nerfs hit hard

Gold is above average. Silver is average.

Junkrat you dickhead.

(i) love, dva!

zenyatta tips?

Blizzard made a seriously good game but why does it MAKE ME SO ANGRY

Charge your right click and prefire it around heavy traffic corners.

Also get really good at discording the correct targets

Lower ranks are absolute hell.
>0 coordination
>no one understand their role
You have Reinhardt's playing like they have dragonblade on. You have Genjis that think their ult makes them invincible
You got Zens that don't understand they need to discord shit or else they're jsut a wasted hero slot.
You have tons of Pharahs, Reapers, and Torbs that just have no idea that this isn't team deathmatch.
Lowest I ever went was like rank 45 after a fifteen game loss streak.

Discord is basically an E press to make someone leave. You don't even need to secure kills, just E someone rounding a corner and they'll either leave your LoS or die to your beach balls of doom.

does Zarya's barrier go away faster than normal if it absorbs 50% of damage?

I could swear my barrier went away in just a second when I was tanking lots of damage.

how do I get my team to actually shoot the discorded target

You take out the weakest and run, wait for your team to come back and do it again.

Reaper isn't very good with actually confronting people, he's very shy and only likes talking to one person at a time.

Also sneak up on tanks, that's a great way to help your party on koth maps.

Ooga booga elohell.

There's a few ways to play Reaper.
I only start trying to go from behind when I'm at high charge.
Most of the time I prefer to move with team and punish their tanks when they get to aggressive.

calm down dude it's just a game (^:

>Heard that Blizzard is too lazy to actively balance and motivate people to play comp or even the game itself due to how shit the matchmaking is and to try and "motivate" people to play more they give popular streamers high ranks despite not deserving them.
>Go and see this for myself.
>First three streams I watch on Twitch are people who clearly belong in Silver
>Shit like Mcree's ulting and firing into a Zarya shield and dying to fire strike.
>Their Mei's aim is literal shit, the cannot hit people who are directly fucking in front of them.
>Constantly focus the tanks instead of the healers or dps when they ult.
>One of them played Hanzo for almost 20 minutes straight and literally only hit like 10 shots and only killed 3 people.
>Every. Single. One of these streamers are Master rank with 3300+ points.

Annnnd that's where I call it quits. The ranking system in this game is entirely pointless and broken to the point where Blizzard has to actively lie to people because they can't fix it.

Get really mad on voice chat? I don't think there's anything you can really do mate.

Zaryas barrier has a HP bar of its own.

It's basically an unarmored zenyatta worth of health and I think barriers on others got maybe a little bit more?

...

You don't.
However since your e has no cooldown and is basically hitscan with it's travel time, just keep tossing it out on whoever's taking damage.
I typically prefer the tanks since I know no one on my team is gonna hit the Lucio until they're like 10m away

Pop the ones getting shot. I started doing this and it's really helped out. If they'll listen you can call out targets but otherwise just vulture it.

It has 200HP, after that it breaks. If you can do a lot of damage, you shouldn't let Zarya's barrier stop you.

A spring loaded tiny pie

five soldiers and a reinhardt is surprisingly effective

t. junkrat main

I want the following to get a trip so i can filter them:
>Any kind of Junkrat shippers that isn't with Roadhog
>76 shippers
>Reinhardt shippers

I don't know if I should buy Carbon Fibre for Genji. Pretty much all skins for him suck except Nihon, and I'm not really feeling the standard one.
Should I?

As far as I know It has 200 hp and if 150 hp is taken you get 50% charge. The remainder is just gravy.

I'm prolly wrong but it from what iv gathered by playing her.

Still salty i didn't get the swiss mercy skin. Got fucking FOUR of Zarya's shitty weightlifter skins though!

He shouldn't do that. I meant with a team, or a Bastion or something.

>250 coins make a difference to me
Poorfags.

You don't like Chrome?

watch your mouth about zarya's weight lifting skins
I'm spewin that I didn't get the summer torb skin though

I have like 3000, but I want to keep plenty in the bank for possible new skins that I like a lot.
Not really. Looks a lot like standard but with some more chrome, and I don't really like chrome on white that much.

You niggas want to know the kind of shit you see in low gold?

Fucking Symm on KotH. Not even first wave Symm trying to set up turrets if you take the point I'm talking the entire fucking round Symm. Refused to switch stating that they had "Bronze elims" so clearly they were top shit.

Then after we got shit on round 1 and I carried her ass through round 2 to even it out she says "yw"

How fucking deluded do you have to be to think you had any meaningful game impact as Symm vs the 4 gold Zarya.

Type/Yell in chat that they target the ones you discord.

It's more about the fact that she has two of the fucking weighlifting skins, they're all gold (which makes it even more salty that i got so many of them) and two of them were even duplicates.

If you care what people think, prob hold off and not get Carbon Fiber--Everyone thinks that it's the skin that attracts shitters
If you don't care, go for it because it looks nice.

What the best hours to play comp?
My first match was bad, and our team was bad. Not a big suprise.
I won second one
In 3'd match i was playing with 5 premades and they was VERY good. Platinum and diamond on both teams.
We lost
In 4th game we lost because i was bad
But in other games i carried/semicarried.

I haven't seen this particular delusion before

>If you care what people think, prob hold off and not get Carbon Fiber--Everyone thinks that it's the skin that attracts shitters
Okay, that's what I was asking about. What people thought about it.
I'll just hold off then, I don't think it looks that good. I prefer people to not think I'm an idiot from the get-go.

>it's a "your damage dealers are complete shit so you have to go roadhog to get picks" episode
>It's an "even when you kill the enemy dps, mercy and get one of their tanks down to 25 health, the team can't mop up" edition

wake me up inside

i guess that would explain how a faggot downie like dyrus who played mobas exclusively is in 3000+. I doubt blizzard just placed them in a high rank user

You underestimate how easy it is to be carried in this game if you got a full team.

>more duplicates!
>I fucking love duplicates!

>was in three different games where the enemy Zarya and Hanzo coordinated their ults even though they weren't grouped
>was in zero games where that happened in my team

>any kind of Junkrat shippers that isn't roadhog
but why?

jesus christ.. low gold/silver?

plat

>Any kind of Junkrat shippers that isn't with Roadhog
Get your degenerate filth out of this thread.

>not enjoying overbux in hopes of blizz allowing overbux be used in halloween skins

there's only one OTP I have with Junkrat
in the trash
where he belongs

>play zen
>get free wins
Nice game overtards???

>friend plays overwatch for first time the other night

>bullshit
>join back same team
>same deal

>enemy team is ever so slightly competent
>KOTH
>enemy team targeting only the point
>translated, only me
>bust my nuts off literally 1v6 ing

fuck doing that again

I respect your opinion, user, but I personally don't think Junkrat belongs in the trash at all!

thanks guys, I didn't know that.
I assumed she was invulnerable for that short amount of time.

>playing as Pharah on eichenwalde with friend
>stomping the enemy team, especially their mccree
>someone on the enemy team tells me that the mccree was telling the rest of his team to kill me and was getting angry at them
This was in mid-platinum, by the way

but at least he'll feel more at home in there

>>enemy team all sub level 15
>>some of the dubest motherfuckers i have ever seen ever

No shit

>queue for qp
>alt-tab
>immediately dropped from queue

not sold on this meme

You make a pretty good point! Still, I hope he'd feel just as much at home being hugged by me!

UNGA BUNGA

Dadhog a cute.

greentext for emphasis lad. do you even storytelling?
yeah nah a sub level 20 team isnt me ooga team booga its just pure autism in player form.

who /ELOheck/ here?

Here's an idea for Pharah to attempt to fix her.
>instead of a normal jetpack she gets a jump pack like Dark Troopers
>can hold rmb or space to hover mid jump pack
>lower CD on jump pack to 6 seconds to be in line with Winston's jump

Eh?
