Why do I love Widowmaker so much? It's pretty simple when I think about it. Widowmaker isn't just the best hero in overwatch, she might be the future Queen of Waifus Just imaging her grappling through the sands of Anubis, the wind in her hair, her mighty rifle with her. As she grapples through the objectives, the men swoon at her very scent. They know how she smells, the essence of her smell is sold in the blizzard store under the the name of "Blueberry pie scent". The very nature of Widowmaker is mystery. could she be playing a deeper game than even her creator realizes? The answer is yes, she has transcended such boundaries as the written world, and has free will to do whatever she sees fit. However, Widowmaker is filled with such guile, such french smugness that she does not even use these powers. Why, you might ask? You will never know, for the mind of the Widowmaker is not one that is easily penetrated. Widowmaker is such a force of nature in her realm that nothing can truly touch her, the only thing keeping her bound to the game at all is her will to exist within the preordained boundaries of her world. Widowmaker is not only beyond the comprehension of us, she exists within a plane of true focus and beauty. Observe her smug smile, her gorgeous and rippling ass, her cute nose, and most importantly, her eyes. Her eyes, like pools of saffron, provide the only glimpse into the true machinations of Widowmaker. Do not stare into them. Many good men have gone mad in the attempt. Widowmaker is not just a character, a formless collection of words and images, she is herself is the binding that holds the saga together. Without Widowmaker, the entire game, the entirety of Blizzard as we know it crumbles. The temple of anubis would freeze without Widowmaker, Eichenwalde would become a desolate crater, Ecopoint: Antarctica would melt without her frosty gaze. These are just of a few of the reasons why I like Widowmaker so much.

Bentley Hall
Anyone else loving the competitive Catch .22?
If someone on your team leaves you're guaranteed to lose
If you leave once they leave you're given a loss
Whos stupid fucking idea was this anyways, if someone on your team leaves theres literally no reason at all to stick around because you're just wasting time getting your ass kicked
Luis Flores

How am I supposed to deal with someone throwing a game by queuing with their platshit friend?
Josiah Gonzalez
Forgot to precise: played Reinhardt all the time save for two matches where I had to go Rapeape for one and Korean gurl gamer for the other. Life is good.

Holy shit how many times can you wipe before you lose a game?
Connor Taylor

Ian Long
How is zarya a counter to dva? Zarya can hit through DM but that doesnt matter when dva is taking half damage from armor and zarya has to chew through 1000 worth of hp to kill dva
Carson Reyes
Play of the game (of the year)
Joshua Miller
We won though, with about 1:30 seconds remaining
Angel Cooper
to have sex with your daughterfu right?
Gabriel Davis
>S1 placed 48, climbed to 70 >S2 placed 2400, climbed to 3500 >S3 placed 3500 >finally got placed where i belong
Feels good to be able to start with people who can into basic team composition right away and not spend whole season getting there again.
Kayden Rodriguez
wrong, zarya's beam bypasses armor effects. Its like regular health. same with symmetra's beam but she's too squishy to take her on 1v1
David Jenkins
D.Va literally can't do anything but run away when Zarya's shield is up.
Isaiah Flores
3 tank is the best right now and if you can't repel a reaper or a mei charging a Rein shield or shoot dead some dumb 200 hp hero horribly out of position and in the open unsupported, GET THE FUCK OFF DPS
Cameron Price
>S1 placed 48, climbed to 70 prove it
Alexander Miller
3 tank is shit and will always be shit
Xavier Gonzalez
You're very welcome mildly creepy Oedipus complex poster.

Looks like it uses season high to place you up
Justin Hall
Why does Metzen suck so much ass he made Soldier 76's Ultimate a literal "I don't have to aim" button?
Zachary Turner
can you blame him? she's a hottie.
Carter Davis
Zarya was the whole reason D.Va didn't see any play, where were you? She was just a giant ult battery for her.
Xavier Hughes
I'm gonna buy a microphone and be one of those fags I fucking hate getting queued with
Kevin Perry
d.va Game of the Year! voiceline when
Luis Baker
soldier is too good beyblade too shit only pick into trip tank of winston+road+X
Xavier Morris
Améle Lacroix Best Girl of the Year
So perfect lads
Owen Lee
no, Armor reduces beam damage, including symmetra
By math, Zarya should do 50% less damage to armor. By practice, I believe Zarya does 25% less damage to armor. Doesn't matter what her charge level is at. It does matter for Symmetra, level 1 -> 50% reduction level 2 -> 33% reduction level 3 -> 17% reduction.
Still, at up to 190 dps Zaryanova does a pretty good job of putting the pressure on D.Va. I think DISCORD + Zaryanova is more practical counter, and honestly with the DPS output of Soldier:76, a Zenyatta, a beam weapon and a skilled Roadhog D.Va loses her survivability status very fast.
Michael Rogers
I ain't bothering to queue GM level games at midnight, so if anyone wants their account boosted for free by a mid-grandmaster player, E-mail me at [email protected]
Ian Kelly
pointing out silver healing as a support is like pointing out gold damage as junkrat its expected
Juan Sanchez
So I just finished my placement matches, I won 9 out of the 10 matches I played. I played as Soldier 76 every single game, got gold for damage and eliminations almost every single game, and was actually a huge help to the team.
Yet I got placed at 2058. Can someone explain this shit to me?
Also how come when I tried to take a screenshot of my placement matches they just came out as the ground on the current map I was on?
Jackson Reyes
GUYS is it still possible to get placed in like silver if i was ~3k last season i really want to tank my placements so i get to vs absolute shitters for a few days
Austin Bailey
>Yet I got placed at 2058.
you're a barely gold tier player and not actually good. maybe you can hit platinum if you get carried.
Hunter Cook
but I like Ana more
Owen Robinson
You're a shitter and you played with other shitters.
Gabriel Gutierrez
Last season I got placed at 2400 with 7 fucking losses. How come I win 9 times and actually do a very good job and only get 2058 this time? Have of our matches were total stomps as well.
Jaxson Reyes
I was pointing out silver because I wasn't even gold in healing, yet everyone was praising me. Including the lucio
David Evans
yes of course let's listen to your plat opinion
tell these pros, who are far better than you will ever be, that they are wrong
The built in screenshots function doesn't capture UI. I just use Shadowplay for UI screenshots since I already use it to record.
Nathaniel Bell
Dumb healslut.
Andrew Butler
w/l doesn't matter for S3 placements
>Have of our matches were total stomps as well then you played against shitty bronze players and as such your SR is rated low because its easy to stomp bronze.
Colton Young
dps memer spotted
Jace Adams
>tfw I got harbloo in 1v1 a couple days ago and we were tied 4v4 >then... VERSUS: ROADHOG
Elijah Clark
My buddy who I played all my placements with played tank the whole time, played against all the exact same players as me, and he got 2408.
I'm just butthurt that my SR went down so far when I've actually significantly improved as a player since last season
Isaac Brown
>have 3 gold medals as DVA including elim and damage >objective time card
Camden Gray
>ended last season at ~2200 >went 7-2-1 in placements, playing tank and support half and half >get placed 2150 guess that means I'm better than you, scrub :^)
Joseph Price
>Have gold elim as tracer with 54 >Game decide to pick Genji for elim card with 43
Jaxon Price
Do they not give MVP cards anymore? I haven't seen one since October.
