Who is writing for Overwatch now that Metzen has retired?
Are you satisfied with his work on the game's story? He spent a decade writing it.
Ryder Phillips
Why so soon.
Thomas Anderson
Me, i'll make Widowmaker pure again.

Is he right?

Sombra is getting delayed because blizzard are busy shelfing their man vs machine gamemode for a new character because of the overwhelming demand for OMNIC LOLI BUTT
Jaxon Turner
Continue the Mei bullying
Sebastian Collins
It's just a less-good Mccree. He has lower DPS, isn't as accurate, and worst of all, his damage profile is 'constant stream' instead of '140 damage sledgehammered into your forehead as mcree peeks around the corner for 0.0001 picoseconds'
Jason Wright
Can you do placements with a friend still?

Nolan Clark
>people wonder why they don't have good aim while others do >they probably don't play this game much at all >they probably never practice flickshots and shit at the practice range
Logan Peterson
Islander or Toa?
I know they are both shit but i like them, so i wanna choose one.
Lincoln White
How do I flickshot on console
Kayden Clark
the blue gree one
Joseph Bell
>practicing at practice range >not doing a custom game with 6 ana bots, cooldowns to 0 and headshots only
also remember to lower your sensitivity. going from one end of your mousepad to the other should let you do a 180 turn, or more depending on size of mousepad
the bots are good for tracking but i prefer widowmaker on the practice range for flicks
Alexander Peterson
I can actually do flickshots reasonably well
However I've practiced flickshots so much that it's actually really hard for me to just smoothly follow someone with my cursor now. I find myself doing nothing my quick jerks when shooting people, rather than fluid movements.
Lucas Hill
>that Smugberry Why is she so perfect? I want her to violently hold my hand
Jack Clark
desu the best way to just practice raw aim is to make your csgo sens the same as ow and go onto an aim map

Every day, every fucking day, I do something to embarrass myself like this. When will it end?
Evan Foster
He said Soldier was ass though as in not playable. Not just bad McCree
Adrian Cook
I did that once to a McCree on KOTH and he died just as I turned on the heals, after amping up speed and everything I'm still sorry
William Thompson
He should have used the speedboost to go get the nearest healthpack, obviously.
Brayden Kelly
typical lucio main, already got yor HIV?

I got tested a month ago, my neghole hasn't been pozzed.
Robert Stewart
this would be pretty damn cool
Nathan Walker
pudge is balanced because 1. The hook has long travel time 2. The hook also has long return time 3. Once the hook button is pressed and the cast point reached, you can't change its trajectory 4. Pudge has to stand still for ~3 seconds and ult+rot the enemy to kill them, if they are even squishy enough 5. Pudge needs items to stay healthy while ganking and needs kills to scale into lategame 6. Heroes and items exist that counter pudges heavy ganking presence
roadhog is unbalanced because 1. The hook travels so fast it's almost like a melee attack 2. The hook travels back just as fast 3. The cast point for the hook is virtually instant but until the hook lands you can change its trajectory 4. The instant roadhog gets control back, he kills whoever he hooked instantly with a headshot+melee, if they are squishy enough. 5. Roadhog can press E for the biggest heal in the game excluding winston ult, and is just as effective coming out of spawn as he is after 2 minutes on the point 6. No hero hard-counters roadhog. Even the heroes which soft counter roadhog need to outplay the roadhog to win
Nolan Perez
He is awful. People bring up this retarded idea that he is flexible and can heal but it is bad to be jack of all trades and doing every job bad instead of doing your own job well. I mean, even in my gold level games (low 2000) there are healers. If you are any lower than that then you should uninstall.
Isaiah Sanchez
Can someone draw an ulted genji nano boosted with a harmony orb with mercy damage boosting him with speedboost with armor with shields
Joshua Gray
They broke roadhogs hook in the latest patch so you can fuck off with your complaining until they fix him.
Landon Johnson
>console >quick play
Mason Sanders
it's a given that they are going to "fix" it, so i'm whining now to warm up
Dominic Gutierrez
It's a 205 damage projectile, any non-tank/non-Reaper hero is going to die in one shot. You either reflect it, dodge it, or stun/kill the Bastion before it can kill you. It's actually a pretty good ult so you really have to not let the Bastion get it off properly or else that push is as good as dead.
Also hiding works too, as long as Bastion doesn't try any tank jumping shenanigans, getting immediately behind cover is probably going to help immensely. The more time Bastion wastes looking for something to shoot like an idiot (like webm related), the more his 8 second ult is wasted. He gets like 9 shots total if he's spamming M1 so every shot that misses or he doesn't fire is 11%-33% ult charge wasted (33% since he gets like 3-4 kills max on average).
>He usually just pops out from nowhere and fucks us up. If you haven't seen Bastion for a few seconds after he's been shredding your team or respawning, he's probably waiting to pop his ult. At this point, your teammates should be screaming "WHERE IS BASTION, BASTION IS MISSING" and backing off until he uses it like you're playing Dota. Followed by furious pinging and "gg noob mid no missing no gank"
>but I can't understand a word from Bastion. It's Bastion, you don't need to. If he starts tooting like he's about to start a victory march, you get the fuck out of there.
Adrian Flores
It's so easy to bait out hook and avoid it. The only time I get caught is if I didn't know Roadhog was there.
Brayden Thompson

Wyatt Barnes
Yes, but don't.
Get placed where you belong, not where the combo of you and your friend belong.
Otherwise you'll be kicking yourself for getting placed into Gold just like I did.
Brayden Sanders
>It's so easy to bait out hook and avoid it Found the sub 1000 player. You literally can't "bait" a decent hog player because he fucking actually aims at you.
Brandon Sanchez
There is also the time when you are behind your whole team and the hook just decides to ignore them and take you.
Andrew Ramirez
>tank jumping shenanigans BEEP BOOP
Carter Fisher
Having a comfy sleepover with your best friend is fun and definitely not gay or anything.
Parker White
Roadhog is balanced because >he has the hitbox on 4 76s taped together >if he manages to flank you, you should probably visit a doctor because you're deaf af famalam >if you tried to 1v1 him and died you're a fucking moron stay with your team jesus christ just pick Reaper >you can dodge the hook as long as you aren't standing 5 fucking feet away from him >whenever he presses e you can just left click his head for a free 30% ult charge, I do this all the time as Lucio Don't whine about hard counters in a team based game where there's no stat gain. If you can't play around a hog then you should just stop playing. Here's your fucking you.
Jason Watson
of course not
Elijah Scott
It still amuses me that out of all the heroes in Overwatch, Bastion is the one with rocket jumping powers.
Jonathan Wright
Actually I watch some Seagull, Surefour, and Mendo streams where they run circles around Roadhog with Genji and Tracer. You must be bad.
Luis Hall
>starting earthshatter that high in the air I was bad with that too, but all it does is give them a second to prepare and leaves you defenseless midair Wait until you're like 4 feet off the ground.
Adrian Hall
dota 2 is shit
Justin Bennett
>Genji and Tracer up close aren't getting hit! No shit, you fucking clown. Show me someone reliably avoiding his shit at mid range, or with the rest of the cast who don't have tiny hitboxes and 100 movement options.
Oliver Perez
So many good Morrison and Reyes pics ruined by god damn cat ears.
See this? Roadhog is fucking d-tier. It's the bad players who have trouble with him.
Julian Scott
>you can dodge the hook as long as you aren't standing 5 fucking feet away from him Maybe if the hog is shit as you are.
>pick reaper >get hooked and killed instantly unless you sneak up (which you should be doing, but still) gg, gotta love 250 damage instant kills from across the point.
Lucas Russell
>tumblr fangs Mchanzo is the most cancerous ship
Parker Foster
how about: Hey dude nice video or whatever.
Jacob Gutierrez

Luke Flores
Hoggy is best on CP defense, especially if they also have a Zarya covering his ass He's particularly annoying because he's bound to get at least one hook and kill, leaving your team a man down for the push He's also fairly hard to kill because he can retreat back into his teammates for safety and heal himself, you really need to swarm the cunt and that's hard on CP when their team is grouped up
Luke Davis
I don't think Hog is overpowered, though. I'm saying the hook is anti-fun. Roadhog may as well be Tank Mei as far as I'm concerned. He's a one trick pony, and that trick is really stupid for both him and the person he hooks. He gets his one kill for free, the rest of the team shits on his fat face.
Watch any pro game. Discord Roadhog and reaper or mccree kills him instantly because he has no mobility. It's especially so easy for mccree to headshot the fucker and kill him instantly.
Anthony Jackson
Thing is his hook was nerfed in the recent patches. He no longer pulls targets close enough to him for the blast to kill and sometimes people are able to backpedal away outside of melee range.
>saw pictures of all my favourite male heroes with vaginas
Why do people act this way, /owg/?
Nolan Peterson
Which legendary skin is best for Zenyatta and Hanzo?
Elijah White
Did you get that Potg for blocking McCree's Ulti...?
Sebastian Thomas
>Mfw nanoboosted Winston ultimate
Noah Thomas
yeah
Carson Ortiz
>still whining about getting hooked Stop being predictable. Know when he used his hook, get aggressive when it's on cooldown, get ready to doge when it's not. It's pretty obvious when a hog is looking to hook someone, just juke it then let him have it. Dueling Roadhogs as Reaper is one of the best feelings in the game. You shouldn't be playing Reaper and le epic flanker either, I see way too many assholes going around as him that are somehow oblivious to the fact that the only other heroes in the game that broadcasts their movements more obviously are Reinhardt and Hog. Just stick with your team, break Rein shield, punish their tanks for being aggressive. If you want to pick off squishes you can play Genji or Tracer or even fucking McCree and 76. Reaper has 250 health, use it stay in the fight instead of trying to close the gap with their back line.
Mason Butler
Oh yeah for sure, I know that. But not every game is a pro game lel, he's still good in high levels if played correctly, but pro stuff is the top of the top, and there are heroes that simply have higher skill ceilings that get mastered and played over him. He certainly took a hurting when Zen came into the meta, and he's shit against a crowd of people because low fire-rate and low ammo capacity, but he's alright at assisting the team defend.
Logan White
What about wolf ears?
Jaxon Thomas
BASTION CAN ROCKETJUMP.....?

women.
I swear to god, almost half of the /d/ users are women, the rest is over at /y/ and they all want fucked up shit.
Connor Cox
>Block half of pharahs ult with Rein shield >Block McCree's ult with teh rest of it as it breaks >get two finishing blows >potg goes to a genji triple kill When are they gonna make potg actually fun to watch?
Andrew Peterson
It's kind of funny I guess but I will never understand how anyone can find animal ears on a dude arousing.
Christopher Ross
When?
Landon Lewis
Well, if the japs and greeks do it, then it's fine by me as well
Jaxson Gray
i wish i was as cute as d.va
Angel James
Nice, i didnt know, that you get PotGs for sth like that
Ayden Bennett
He really isn't. The only time he is used is in cheesy NiP strat. He is an awful hero against good players. If this general had their way Winston would get buffed and Roadhog nerfed. lel just uninstall
Jason Miller
ok here u go
Brody Moore
Why is Tracer so much thiccer in HOTS? Not fair desu.
Aiden Reed
With a little bit of work, that would be a really good talon skin
got more Tracey?
Logan Mitchell
You want to know something outside of that tumblr garbage? From the way Hanzo is written, there are two routes he can go: He'll be corrupted by Talon only to face his brother in battle resulting in his "death" and redeeming him. Or He stays neutral searching for a path and connection that brings him out of the void he's currently in. Zen can't be this character due to conflicting ideals.
Should be go the later route, he needs a character that balances out his harsh sensibilities but also comes from his "world". Not the same hierarchy, but the perspective of dealing with a seedy organization and over coming the guilt while leaving it buried in the past. Currently, there is only one character who's done this. McCree. His personality also compliments Hanzo's.
But this is under the impression Blizzard is still as predictable with their writing. I still very much believe much of the lore of this game isn't even written yet. Which means the way fans react to it is going to effect how it's written. It's simply what happens to stories that aren't fleshed out and still in development. Even if you try to avoid it, it's impossible not to.
Andrew Butler
/y/ is absolutely horrifying, I swear they had an actual conversation on how gay men are misogynistic in the last OW thread.
