This is the lore between these two in the game. There is only one obvious difference.
And any sane person would realize this is clearly leading up to a romantic reveal. If it were heterosexual you wouldn't deny it, and you know it

>"With Mercy, on Mercy well...she's getting a kit redesign. We have to do it, because if we don't then she won't be viable in competitive matches next season or further on. We though she was strong, and she was, but the changes we've made to the rest of the support roster, including the addition of Ana and her buffed kit, it just really puts Mercy in a bad spot. The team and I don't like where she is sitting and that's going to change before next season rolls out. I don't think the damage beam is working out, or having to rely on others to make an escape. She's too tied to the team in a scenario where no one else is, and that's just not working out anymore." - Jeff Kaplan, 12/28/2016

Hanzo is one of the next gay heroes.
I had a strong instinct that tells me so.
Not because I want to, not because I'm an insider from Blizzard, but because of my instincts.
Everytime I brush off my instincts, they happen. although this may mean that by NOT brushing them off they don't happen, but whatever
Cap this.
If I'm right, I want 50 loot boxes.
I'm using these socks and this carpet as an identifier.

How about you just fuck off. I don't care if you're right or wrong. Unless you can fully predict something, such as tomorrows lottery numbers, then I'll give you my attention.
There are literally thousands of people who predict which heroes are gay. You are no different.

Bastion needs to be buffed to better do his job as an area denial hero and make recon mode not "free ult for enemy" mode
- self heal is now alt-fire instead an ability
- recon mode can move at 60% speed while self healing, also healing is not interrupted by damage, only reduced to 20 HP/s until sustaining 1 second without taking damage
- new passive: recon scan. Can see non-player objects within 40 meters while in recon mode (traps, turrets, mines, sentries, active shields like rein, Symmetra's, or Winston's.
>Can deploy original ult, RC mine, as his new ability in recon mode. When triggered does 100 damage over 2.5 seconds within 4 meters of it. 14 second Cooldown.
- Can fire a beacon as new ability in sentry/tank mode. Beckon creates a bionic field sized AOE that reduces damage received by 33% for 4 seconds. 14 second Cooldown.
- Using beacon cancels mine and vice versa.
Bastion a viable defense pick now?
Austin Kelly
I'm done with this game. Matchmaking is fucking broken.
It's either a cakewalk or getting steamrolled. It would be much better if you could randomly group together, no MMR whatsoever, just people filling slots. At least then you don't either have to carry a team or slow one down, it's random.

Aiden Rodriguez
It would make her better for sure but I just wish she had a more reliable way of defending herself. All the other healers can heal and damage at the same time, Mercy has to switch out to that pitiful "blaster" as a last ditch effort to not get killed.
John Richardson

Can someone explain me how this game can be competitively successful at all?
it's way too fast paced for tournament audience and casters alike, a lot of the strategy resides in ultimate stacking and a little coordination of the aforementioned. and little more than that.
It does have LEGAL autoaim abilities in some characters, mirror characters are also allowed in competitive matches, which limits the viability of counter picking if your team can have exactly the same character the opposite team has, that'd be like pushing LoL or DotA blind pick tourneys, which would be ridiculous by the versatile nature of the games.
Another matter is the huge amounts of oneshot skills and how little HP most characters do have even for some "tank". Why would you bother picking a healer that can't even provide peel for your damage dealers because they get instakilled by 2 skill combos?
Mercy for instance, the only pure healer character, is squishy as hell and can get oneshot'd by almost the entire roster.
I don't know, I do like the game, the artwork, the maps, etc. but to me Overwatch is 100% a casual game, fun and addicting but a casual game, all this trying to push the competitive aspect into everything these days seems forced and ridiculous.

Like winston aka guerilla warfare. You go in, damage and distract, maybe get a kill or 2, fall back. Build ult quickly and just screw pushes with it.
She lacks good damage to really kill most of the time, she can only kill secure or perhaps kill idiots. She could stand a few adjustments, maybe either longer stealth or shorter cd on it, tighter recoil on gun, or small damage boost.
The fact that she's fucking loud as fuck when she goes in and out of invis is pretty contradictory to how she's supposed to be a stealth flanker
Carter Walker
Roadhog's hook don't just need to be fixed, it needs to be nerfed. a 6 second cool down is too short after each use.

Hero stacking was the worst but that didn't really carry over too much into pubs since competitive wasn't out at the time.
Gotta admit, not really enjoying this current meta. Not a lot of flexibility when played right by both teams
I'm not v familiar with DotA or LoL but yoy can switch heroes in between lives in OW as long as you're not worried about losing your ult meter which is why blind pick doesn't make a big difference It has comp potential but there are a few big problems standing in its way imo. Ults charge way too fast so instead of being big game-changing things you see like three or four a teamfight, and more importantly counterpicking doesn't mean shit because the balance issues at top level are so bad. Maybe a third of the entire hero roster is consistently viable.
I see it being like TF2's comp scene in the end, it's never going to pull huge money but it'll have a solid cult following for a while.

Camden Miller
Did that game died? It was fun for a while but updates were too slow.
Jaxon Thompson
I also feel like Junkrat's kit genuinely serves better as offensive aggressive close-ranged play. So many characters don't feel like they should be in the spots they're labelled.
I enjoy this game but I think I'm really finally realizing just how poorly designed it all is.
