Roadhog isn't particularly good in high-level play. That said it's probably one of those things where if he could fire five shots before reloading he'd be disgustingly OP.

As I was saying, you're a useless cum-dumpster.

I love Hana.

I want to grope Hana Song!

G-Go on. Boss me around like I was your daughter

It's almost cute, really.

Yet reddit said that I'm the only constant here so surely it's all my fault, right?

What hero does this song go with

Reaper.

What hero goes with this song?

Remove genji from the game

If they actually know how to use him he's impossible

My question is though is why I'm always paired with diamonds/High plats even when i was silver on qp/arcade. Is separate mmr actually a thing or can this be explained? I usually have evenly matched games on 1v1 with mid diamonds almost all the time

Oh you'd like that, to be my special little girl?
If you do everything Daddy asks, you might even get a headpat

They're in the reaper fan club don't listen to them

I'd love it so much! What does daddy want from his obedient healslut?

how the fuck did they manage to make the meta even worse

did they read that one post i made about "this meta couldn't be worse" and decided to take it as a personal challenge?

You're gold, you didn't pick Ana, you don't know that your medals don't matter when half your team is missing, your objective time, your accuracy.

Look at the numbers, you fucking retard.
>accuracy
This is correct.
>half your team is missing
They left as soon as the match was over, 0 - 3.

Well considering you're useless at healing, you best give me the use of one of your holes~
I might even be nice and let you pick which one I'm going to use first

>They left as soon as the match was over

It doesn't matter when, medals don't matter if the team is gone. You have fucking bronze objective time with 2 other people on your team as a support.

The numbers are trash. You're playing a low impact hero hoping to get carried and crying when you don't.

>>Three teammates berating me for picking "the worst hero possible"
Have they been under a rock since mid november?

>play supports
>find out that healsluts are now real thing and not meme anymore
>stop playing supports

Why the fuck you want to deflation of healers, you sick fuckers?

But you said only one! What are you gonna do to me?

The picture I was looking for.

Mods really need to do something about ERPing and faggot posting on blue boards.

>tfw you master junkrat's spray pattern

>waifus and porn on Veeky Forums

what

I really want to see a video of a healslut slutting.

>we'll never see a video of a blonde with C-cups healslutting on Mercy

This timeline is not yet perfect.

i love the spray pattern meme

FUCKK
OFF

Soldier is the most average character possible. He's the most well rounded but right now he's not the best being that either. He's fallen mostly on the "ok" tier. He's not great but he's not bad.

What he needs above all else is 50 more health or 25 armor. SHIT Pharah needs 50 armor and 76 needs 50 more health, actually. It'd make him incredibly balanced but slightly more durable. Also ends anymore one-shots from a roadhog hook and shot.

Yes honey, one to start with.
But I'm going to use all of your tiny little holes and stuff them with my cum, as they belong to me

Those are terrible balance ideas. Soldier is definitely not average, he's actually pretty good ever since the damage buff. Now combined with Ana's ult he can be pretty scary in the right hands.

>pharah
>needing armor

t. bronze

At the worst take Soldier back to how he was during release and up his damage.

That or give him 25-50 health to make him more durable. As it stands he's barely at the middleground.

fuck off holy shit

Not that guy but...Nigger I am plat and I don't even play Pharah to know that wearing a fucking suit of thickass armor and a jetpack should entail at least 25 armor.

Either make the board yellow and allow porn, or remove stuff that makes it de facto NSFW.

I'm gonna go with Roadhog on this one. Roadhog seems the sort who would listen to Yes to take his mind off his job.

1 class from TF2 is added to Overwatch. They get scaled up health and damage values but remain relatively the same.

Which one do you pick and why?

O-Ok I guess. As long as it's with you user, and that you'll carry me to Masters as soon as we're done.

So whats the current meta, winston, rein, zarya, lucio, ana, and s76?

Engineer, he'd be impossible to counter in overwatch.

Demoman because I hate this game

>soldier is average
>he's ok tier
>he's not great
>He needs 50 more health or 25 armor

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA


AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

He's the best DPS hero in the game right now. Look at any high skill rating game and there will be instalock S76 on both sides. He melts Reinhardt's shield, he melts peoples faces with insane consistent long range damage, and his ultimate works very well with Ana (especially now Rein is a crap target). He's the meta DPS slot right now.

Then explain to me why McCree is wildly more viable or why comps don't see consistent use of 76 but they do every other DPS character.

Go on.

I'll wait.

Why is Torbjorn shit though?

So how much fucking QQ over endless sticky spam?

LMAO HOLY FUCK you are delusional.

76 is decent at best. McCree has better range and Reaper can tap him out from midrange. 76 has always needed a small boost, and this latest patch barely brings him up. He's decent and not worth something to stand out. You have to be amazing with him to do well.

...

Because his whole fucking hitbox is his head
Also healthpool could atleast use some fucking armor points, like 100/100 split.

>no level 3 turret
>Wrench has no range
>Shitty pistol equivalent

overbuff.com/blog/2016-11-30-overwatch-hero-tier-list-and-meta-report-who-s-meta-is-it-anyway

5 minutes to find an AI game

Like seriously this game is dead or what

Get me 5 other smucks of any level and put me in so I can practice shots christ sake

This is just sad

>McCree has better range
Wrong

>Reaper can tap him out from midrange
Wrong

Soldier 76’s damage buff has brought him back on top of the Overwatch DPS pyramid, pushing out McCree and Reaper due to his superior effective damage range. Good luck getting close enough to the “new” Soldier 76 as a Reaper or McCree, a good Soldier player will simply back up and pick you off from distance. Both Roadhog and Soldier 76 work best from behind cover, and Reinhardt has moved up in usage to fill that role.


The results don't lie, this is objective data compiled from dozens of matches of the best players in the world, not personal opinion.

>Multiple times it says "Fuck The Meta"
>Soldier listed as literally average usage
>Shows improvement in ability to keep but not excel
>Nothing stands out and still considered barely average

>try to play hitscan class
>always try to arc my shots

feelsbad

Permanent level 3 turret would be cancer. Torb would go to S tier immediately.

Are you seriously comparing the highest end players data to the average player grouping? The people who make a career out of a videogame?

You can't seriously be this retarded.

Torb could be the chemo curing the tank meta

So how would Blizzard change that without fucking up his model too much?

What buff would he need?

>no idea what rank i wouldve fallen in s1 in the current system
>start s2 in 2,100 after placement
>slowly go up
>at one point fall 300 elo but climp up again
>end s2 at ~3,1k
>start s3 at ~3,1k after placement
>get 200 elo, lose it the next day, and get it again the day after
>start today at 3370

will this be the day i reach masters?

yes im a solo shitter so no premades for easy carry

Do what the beta beta did

>Turret remains level 3 after molten core
>moving it will only make it level 2 until ult again

Or just make some sort of scrap requirement, like you need to have collected 100 scrap to upgrade. You don't have to horde scrap, but it counts in a seperate counter.

Perhaps just make the rockets concussive.

How would turret that shreds squishies cure tank meta? Use your fucking head.

Honestly? Torb just needs his turret to deploy at full HP with maybe +50 HP to level 1 turret. Keep the arming time on the turret, but have it spawn at full HP so it doesn't get instantly deleted by random fire.

When we're discussing how "strong" a character is, we're talking about their potential skill ceiling, since that's the only objective measure of comparison. We all have different conceptions of what an average player is, or an average game. I'm in master atm and S76 is locked in every game because at our SR he is by far and away the best DPS, since people can aim properly.

Maybe in platinum and below people do better with other DPS heroes, but is that an indication of how strong the hero is? No, it's not, it's how well they're using him, not the objective measure of his full potential.

The pros set the meta and figure out who the best heroes are through trial and error, and evolution.

You, in fact, are the retarded one my good dude.

you are giving them the attention they want, stop fucking replying

Give him an ability to lower his welder's mask. It reduces vision greatly but it prevents headshots and adds some resistance.

Torbjorn is a castrated engineer. I can understand why he doesn't have the teleporter or dispenser equivalent in overwatch, but his turret has a very low dps is extremely easy to counter.

Ofc a swede is a castrated American.

You understand that the meta is set up for consistent average usage, not topend usage. That's like stating a bell curve defines your standardized scorer.

It is OK to measure a standard by the top end, but that creates too much flex in the middle doesn't provide a standardized score.

Seeing results from the baseline and not the top end is what creates balance. Shifting ability and design from the best players on the planet is catering to a niche group and not the standardized pattern… The standardize pattern does not necessitate the average player but the standard consistency.

>all these torbshitters
It's a low skill hero designed for low skill matches. Fuck off back to TF2 for your "le comfy engie feels xD" aka sitting in the corner for half an hour.

Understand most OW characters are just split up TF2 characters. Remember how many rolls the Soldier could fill? Now we divide that into 5 totally unique and diversified characters.

I wouldn't mind a hero that builds a machine that refills clips in a facinity so you don't have to reload. OP or not?

Pros setting the meta is detached from reality. That's like stating the best exam scores in medschool are the new average next semester.

But you can't do that in TF2 cause Spy is a thing.

Ive come to the conclusion that Overwatch is the League of Legends of these fast paces team based shooters.

Seriously, this game takes no aim skill at all, anyone can get kills when they got their ultimates. Some ulties are just unpreventable from getting killed by.

How can this game be acceptable as a competitive game?

Dirty Bomb takes more aim skill than this.

completely op, never having to reload means constant pressure and no way to counter it

>not liking salt mining manlet

Gee atleast its not as braindead as most other classes. Shoot and aim or swing a big fucking hammer and run fowards. Real intensive gameplay :^)

is there a point to your post

literally no one is going to fucking disagree with you

56 DPS is not insignificant when it has 100% accuracy, instant targeting, very long range and no drop off. With Molten Core it's 126 DPS.

If you're trying so hard to get (You)'s, at least use something less disgusting for picrelated.

Did you really just compare a sitting turret to a tank that needs to strategize often

>playing Lucio because a single Ana can't keep everyone healed
>she keeps sticking close to our heavy hitters waiting for the right chance to pop her ult
>almost the end of the match
>she nanoboosts me by accident
>spill my spaghetti everywhere but somehow manage to kill a Genji and a stray D.va
>somehow get POTG from it
At least I got the chance to see my highlight intro in the wild. Anyway, I'm going to start playing Reaper lads. What's everyone's favorite emote of his? I'm thinking of either taking the slow clap or the evil laugh.

>them
Implying it's not just me replying to myself because I have nothing else to do

Stop, just stop. You aren't gonna convince torbshitters that they can actually shoot instead of just sit down behind their turret.

>comparing a tank to a hero who's role is literally strategy

All I'm saying is that when you drop the whole "oh he just sits at the turret and hits it" bullshit its actually fun and intensive to play. Most of the time most heroes out DPS the repair speed.
