best girl reporting in

Fuck off and stop playing a cancer character? All characters who can do that are so broken

lookin cute

...

why is emily looking so FUCKING SMALL WHAT THE FUCK LENA IS SUPPOSED TO BE THE BOTTOM

There's something off about that tracer's face

Well nice to know some things don't change

Oh god, Widow killing Emily needs to be a canon thing.

Remember to bully your Soldier76s.

t. hog with 0 situational awareness that kept getting bumped into the pit

Hey you! Yes, you!
Keep at it, friend, you can do it! great things don't happen over 1 night just like great plays don't happen within 1 minute of the game. The moon landing took many years to prepare and succeed, so find your own moon landing and work towards it!
Never give up! Never surrender!

Hana!

Amielie, not Emilie ok

huh? no.

>Iris is God AI
>Experiencing tranquility is super beefed up Mercy's healing technology

okay i just won reaper vs reaper in 1v1 with one shot

i didn't even know he can possible deal 250 damage with just one click of mouse 1

point blank reaper headshot instakills every non-tank (I think)

>2 legendaries
>both are new winter items and duplicates

fucking hell

>pick Zarya
>our Ana starts punching me and wanting me to switch
?

shame we're not Mercy

How many characters is too many characters to play as? Mostly play Zennyatta and Reinhardt, with some Zarya, D.va, Mei and Pharah here and there. I feel like I should play other characters, especially since I seem to suck with offensive ones

you mean like
>
?

It's better to play too many rather than too few. Blizz is gonna fuck the meta eventually, so you should git gud with as many as you can.

>want to play support
>teammates can't kill people
>all you do is delay a loss

What's the fix for this

>It's "our D.VA doesn't go after Soldier so he has free reign the whole game" episode

>our team
>4 gold 2 plat
>enemy team
>3 diamond 3 plat

That is a horrible picture.

Some small QoL suggestions

>labeled highlights/ PotGs in the Highlights menu
>time stamps for the above
>a toggleable fire counter for highlights, just to see a total amount of "fire" earned, plus any invisible modifiers like environmental kills

let me fucking change the way the killfeed scrolls jfc this is the ONLY fps i've ever played where it scrolls from bottom to top

ana

Reminder that this can be you if you e-mail [email protected]!

you da best

h-help

i had a wet dream about Junkrat last night

Gaiz, srsly, what do I need to do for consistent results?

anyone have the clothed version of this?

how do i climb out of plat
should i stop flexing and main some heroes?

lucio boop result depend of the enemy status (jumping, immobile, moving toward or away from you,...) try against bot to see what position give the best result.

carry with s76

Only boop if the enemy's jumping. They get thrown way further if they're midair because of some stupid momentum bug. Otherwise, boop only if they're less than 3 metres from the edge, otherwise they can air strafe and land back on the edge

Air mechanics in this game are stupid, if you jump off a ledge as Dva and start firing, you SLOW DOWN midair.

>barely diamond
big whoop

Duo queue and go Ana/S76 and just mow people down with boosted aimbot at chokepoints. Cheesy but works.

Thanks!

Yet you're all in the same SR.

It's in an hour tho

>if you jump off a ledge as Dva and start firing, you SLOW DOWN midair.
blizzard programming

thats how i got to plat...
i thought the fun started now -_-

the best of both world.

Why do people make such a huge fuss over widow & hanzo picks then ignore genji picks even though most of the time they provide nothing for the team?

Soldier isn't gay only tracer is gay nobody else

Reaper fucks everyone

so I'm two placements down and both games have been one sided stomps where we had ragequits and afks

Not sure if I should continue

i dont get this shit, why do people do this? it's like the want to lose and they dont even pick a char that is fun or have any versatility.
>"im Hanzo and i shoot arrows, thats all i do"
>"im Genji and i poke until i get ult and go full retard even if i know ill die with only a slim chance of getting a kill

yup thats genji mains for you

>Mei on attack
>5 medals 3 golds including 1 on objective time
>team can't push the last 3 meters on payload
>lose

Does the suffering ever end, bros?

How can we contain Torbjorn libido?

no

...

>Play solo
>Alright matches, some close ones
>Play with one friend
>6 stack of GMs

This game is so fucking garbage.

i get you
>playing solo and only barely over 110
>slotted with and against 130s - 400s
>matches are ok and most people understand basic comp
>play with friends who are sitting 70-100
>get slotted with 10s - 80s at most
>GRRR CHANGE OUT IM GENJI MAIN
>we have no healers or tank unless we play one
>almost always lose
i know my friends aint the best but i dont think there this trash......

There should only be allowed 1 tank per team

Prove me wrong

QP is a weird place, people don't even have to tryhard and yet they play boring as fuck heroes

No

Fucking leaguebabbs slowly eroding freedom of choice

But there already is. Rein is the only tank in the game

I can't. Nobody can.

Zarya, Winston, and D.VA on every team every game because nobody can't beat them without them say differently

Is she worth playing again yet?

>won 1(one) arcade match during 4 hours of playing
dude xDDDD vidoeagames Xd

You've got experience anyway

>play nothing but genji
>be dogshit in mystery heroes

You deserve it

shes not a bad choice anymore. but if you wanna be that guy then no shes not in the meta, no one is except d.va

I'm sorry for you, Genji main

>no sound
>only fix is to turn off razor synapse
>isn't even installed
help

>Reaper fucks everyone
Of course he would, that big fat mexican slut.

>open the client
>no sound
>re-open
>sound is back
what is going on
started today

...

Mysterious hero is fun.

Riptire is the highest risk, lowest reward ult in the game. Not only can you kill yourself with it, the wheel itself doesn't contest the point, and you're a free pick while its active, it also can be destroyed with such ease that its almost a moot ult to any team with half a brain and aim. Also it can be destroyed during the sitting duck startup animation as well.

Consider the follow, all of these can instantly destroy the RIPtire:

- Bionic Grenade
- 0.4 seconds of bastion spray
- Single swing of Dragons Blade
- Scatter Arrow
- Hanzo's normal arrow
- Junkrat's normal grenade
- Junkrat's beartrap
- Junkrat's Concussion Mine
- Pharah's normal Rocket
- Point black Reaper shot
- Firestrike
- Roadhog alt-fire
- 5 shots from 76
- Helix Missles
- 1 Widow shot
- 1 second of contact with Zarya's Beam at 0%
- One Burst from Zarya at 55%
- 3 charged orb volley from Zen

And can be avoided by
- Dva's 2nd life
- Sound Barrier
- Cyrofreeze
- Ressurection
- Jet Jump
- Wraith Form
- Being behind Rein Shield
- Translocating
- Photon Barrier
- Molten Core(If you already have armor)
- Recall
- Projector Barrier
- Primal Rage full health
- Barrier Bubble
- Transcendence.

The following can bring it down to 25HP, so that stray bullets can destroy it:

- Single Ana shot
- 3 shuriken from Genji
- Single Mccree shot
- Mei Alt-fire
- Torb/Rein Melee
- Symmetra charge shot
- Single Torb shot
- Winston splash + melee
- 2 orbs from Zen

Do you see how the majority of the cast can shut it down or avoid it BY THEMSELVES. As a team the RIPtire is even less viable.

How do we fix it?

these are not tanks they are dps/flankers with higher health pools.
The only real tank is reinhardt and that's the reason he sits at the pickrate he sits.

If there's a soldier (hint: it's always yes) then no.

This game's matchmaking is so fucking bullshit. I'm trying the mystery 6v6 for the arcade lootboxes and I'm losing eveyr single shitty match. Just looking at the levels the enemies are always over us. Fuck this shit

Who can't go roughly 50/50 in Mystery? The nature of the mode almost guarantees you're going to get a few steamrolls in your favor

if you plan on hitting swift then space and just hover there till you inevitably die not she's not worth playing.
if you can actually maneuver her mid-air use her e for e repositioning and aim your rockets then yes she's a solid choice

>objective time
teamplayer/10

go metaslave
pls go and stay go

-You can get a riptire every 30 seconds.
-Stop running it directly at the enemy.

It's balance is fine.

it charges INCREDIBLY fast and allows you to stay safe somewhere with the potential of many easy picks
it's balance is fine
junkrat needs buffs elsewhere not on his ult

>Stay far away from the fight
>spam bomb without moving
>expect the resulting ult to be good

fuck you.

Close games are such a fucking thrill holy shit until you lose

>Playing mystery
>Enemy gets Reinhardt, Ana and three Soldiers
>We keep getting Bastions, Torbs and Hanzos

This mode is absolute fucking garbage.

but when you win it's orgasmicly good

Her hard counter is in every single match.
