Junkrat

>There are people ITT RIGHT NOW not watching Best Girl stream.

Disappointing.

>tfw everyone congrats you as a healer/solo healer
its nice to be appreciated :3

She does, but that doesn't mean I think she needs a rework to be allowed to exist. First of all, I want to see how the Ana nerfs affect her. Otherwise, I would have nerfed defense matrix instead of her health/armor ratio.

Pharah!

You're gonna have to take up your complaint about character consistency to Blizzard.

true
>how I feel when I play Tracer

Jamison Fawkes!

It's always nice to see someone else who appreciates Junkrat! What's your favorite thing about him, user?

What kind of hero archetype or class design could be added to the game or is currently missing?

Mercy!

>tfw everyone congrats you as a solohealer
>they didnt fill 2nd healer
>they picked 3 dps squishies with no self heals
its nice to be suck my dick

Cute!

When I play Tracer I feel like I'm gonna have a heart attack. It's fun as hell but I feel like it's aging me years.

Would having a pick/ban system like in competitive MOBAs fix the pick rates?

Both teams banning Reinhardt, for instance.

that's dumb as fuck

not autistic

>She not expressive because
that's the thing
she is

listen to the lines she has with her mother and how much she cares for her, or the pride she shows when talking about her raptora suit with torbjorn, or the excitement of finding out who taught McCree how to shoot

>Support main
>Supports are already taken
>ok thats weird but ill just DPS
>already DPS
>have to play tank
>hate playing tanks more than anything
just let me play support

He's fun to play as, and he's cute! CUTE!

It's so dumb, everyone does it? KYS you weeb

>a world with no hanzo or widowmaker shitters
A man can dream.

But overall no, I think every character should be viable or playable at least.

D.va will always be OP and viable in my heart

>wanting reinhardt bans

I might be projecting here a little bit, but Pharah definitely feels like she's almost chasing after this image of "the perfect soldier". When you stick her next to Zarya or someone like Tracer or Mercy, the difference in their motivations is really glaring. She's not fighting out of a love for her country like Zarya, she's not fighting for the good of the world or it's people. She's literally fighting for the sake of becoming the hero of justice she thought the former Overwatch members, including her mother, were. No wonder she's so fixated on ideas like "heroes of justice". She's really surprisingly immature in the way she thinks

And that really turns me on

Im supposed to be searching for jobs but Im just playing overwatch

>Wanting reinhardt

This PTR patch better not make all the D.Va shit go through.

I like that choosing between zarya and d.va is an actual decision rather than just slampicking Rein+Zarya.

I hope I hear good news from Blizzard about my marriage proposal.

>griefbanning
you know at that point they'd just lock in sombra or attackstion

but i'd still ban widow or hanzo anyway

Those are excellent choices - I like playing as him too, and he's definitely the cutest! Every time I see him I just want to cuddle with him!

There's a new kill feed that has special animation for when an ult kills someone

>i hate balanced characters
>i hate characters that can at least consistently contribute
>lets just fuckin ban it and run 3 dps
You sound like a console player

>Q. Where can I share feedback about the upcoming patch content?

>A. This iteration of the PTR is intended to make sure the upcoming patch is working correctly before it's released, so we'll be primarily focused on uncovering major bugs and technical issues. Though you are still welcome to share your feedback through our normal channels, it's unlikely that we'll be able to incorporate changes based on PTR feedback in this patch cycle.

I'm sorry user, it's probably too late now. Like all ptrs, it's just bug checking.

Y-you won't leave me after the patch goes live, r-right?

I main her during the beta and I don't plan on stopping now.

I'll still pick D.Va
I love her.

>Though you are still welcome to share your feedback through our normal channels, it's unlikely that we'll be able to incorporate changes based on PTR feedback in this patch cycle.

Mei has been losing weight to win her men back from D. Va aka "Pee Va"

China is the master race

Gooks get OUT

I love this family friendly casual shooter!!!
My 12 year old brother think he can already go pro Xd!

Emote Wheel on live when?

She's a dork who wants to become a super hero and protect the innocent just like Reinhardt used to do in the old days of Overwatch.

is it just me or is 90% of getting better at this game come down to mechanical skill alone?

>0.26% of overwatch players tested out the shit on PTR
>tfw I didnt play on PTR
We brought this on ourselves

It's OK user, the new meta is going to be Road/Rein because roadhog can now one-shot Zarya on a 6 second cooldown.

So who has the best kins in the game and who has the worst ones? (events excluded)

Best:
>McCree
>Zenyatta
>Reaper

Worst:
>Zarya
>Tracer
>Junkrat

A lot of the roles I want are already doable by existing heroes, but they all have problems.

A mobile support hero that can dive with Tracer/Genji already exists in Sombra.

A hero that punishes close knit and grouped up tactics exist in Pharah and Winston, but Winston's underpowered and Pharah is actually countered by deathball heroes (Soldier and McCree).

I also wanted a tank that forces long range engagements, Roadhog arguably does that, but he does so in the most retarded way possible.

>skill
>overwatch
It's just you.

>bans result in:
>Soldier,Ana,Reinhardt,D.Va, Zarya
>every single match

who are you quoting

i think you mean 90% luck

I did test it. I didn't say anything on the forum since there's nothing else I can say that someone else hasn't said before.

>tfw a patch will never indirectly affect you and you'll stay above 75% pickrate
shieldmains ww@

Except she doesn't actually care about protecting people and are willing to sacrifice innocents for "the greater good" or "to get the job done".

that's 100% true in diamond and below

When will they nerf Symmetra and Ana?

I don't mind D.Va, i'm salty when she swallow my ult but it's ok, just that Symmetra is fucking god now and ana is Jesus.

>hurr durr how about we effectively remove a hero from the game xd

>Zarya
>Worst
Fight me, fucking faggot

I've said it once and I'll say it again
I'd rather be Gold and be able to play D.va than being Diamond and play Reinhardt

ain't no nerfs gon make stop enjoying my waifu

>mechanical skill
>overwatch

This game requires some of thel est mechanical effort in any "competitive" game ever with its wide array of no-aim heroes. There is basically no difference between people in Silver and people in early GM other than knowing some basic concepts of when to push and when to ult. You could basically git gud enough to be "pro-level" on half the heroes in a couple of weeks.

reinhardt definitely has thest best, the only doubt is coldhardt because it's a giant "headshot me" marker

>game starts
>some idiot instalocks Junk
>proceed to lose
Every time.

That's the goal. Reinhardt has to go.

Did Reinhardt hammer down your whole team or something?

I dont understand how people like the McCree skins so much

Riverboat McCree looks like a nancy boy and vigilante McCree looks like the world's lamest superhero

She has a decent skind and the worst skin in the game. That's enough to make her win the contest.

Yeah the game would be much more fun if it was just a giant zerg rush without any strategy involved at all.

No. Overwatch requires so little mechanical skill to actually be effective at any hero. Each hero has differing skill floor requirements, but the skill ceiling for all heroes are all around the same amount.

The real key to being good at Overwatch is teamwork

not wanting reinhardt in any comp means you don't want to play overwatch and want to play another game
that's fine
but everything is balanced around having a rein on your team in this game
the easiest way to see this is the plethora of chokepoints exactly the length of his shield

I've recently got into Overwatch because the community in dota 2 was driving me crazy how toxic it is. I cannot believe how bad the community in this game is, the amount of flaming, blaming and lack of teamwork is unbelievable.

However, you know it's an online game so I can get over that and work with it. The fact that people openly tell people to KYS and other suicidal things isn't cool though. You may think you're super trendy and hip, but you're just another nerd like me playing a computer game for fun.

A lot of people have social, or mental health issues, especially in young males. Fortunately I have gone through the period in my life where I have had to deal with these things, but a lot of people have it coming for them as they go through their teen years.

Suicide is an unfortunate statistic in the world and encouraging it because someone played a computer game poorly, or said something you didn't like is horrible and we should be proud to make our community better than basic insults like that.

But he's fun, user! I know he's not always the best choice, but I can understand WHY people want to pick him. Besides, that still doesn't mean he's not cute!

>I've recently got into Overwatch because the community in dota 2 was driving me crazy how toxic it is
2k MMR confirmed.

where can i get overwatch for cheap

D.Va will get a good skin once she's nerfed

Right?

I mean i thought the whole reason they gave him the extra two legendaries is because his first four were lame. Bloodhardt and blackhardt look like one of those transmog sets in WoW that no one ever wanted because they're super ugly, and stonehardt and goldheart are generally kind of fine but it just wound up being ill advised to have skins with his goofy old man head sticking out of the top, he looks a lot more fearsome with the helmet on.

Keep it on reddit

>it's just a game, bro XD
Literally kill yourself.

You shouldn't take the time to elaborate your very own toughts on this website imo

These.

hey yo bro, stop being toxic...unless you're looking to 1v1 me ilios headshot only ana only?

go back in time to last month

>I've recently got into Overwatch because the community in dota 2 was driving me crazy how toxic it is.
Veeky Forums then might be too violent for you.
I suggest Tumblr, that'll be the safe space you are looking for.

why does mccree has a $ symbol on his left hand

Like 90% of the Tumblr is violent pornography

the only time D.va will be getting a new skin will be when they sell skins directly for $ and it will be a skin that completely sexualises her
until then she will be getting only epic recolors

Reinhardt is a bore it's shit that you have to always burn down a 2000 hp shield before you get to have any real fun

He also encourages moving in a clump so everyone can benefit from the shield

It would at least be a silver lining I suppose.

I imagine they hesitate to make uniques for her since it's two character models. Double the work for just one hero.

where can I find pics of tracer's feet

On Emily's phone

>it's another mccree that UNIRONICALLY flashbang + fan the hammers

Then another meta develops and people ban against that too

It becomes much more dynamic and versatile

there are chokepoints exactly the size of Mei's wall but she's not mandatory like Rein is either

...

I got you senpai

>play bastion
>sentry
>tear apart big ass shield in 3 seconds

????

I hope for Valentine she'll get something like a playboy bunny skin. It's also a good occasion to make something fo Widowmaker

hey anons, is oasis unbalanced shit like the other 2cp maps?

That's why koth is the best mode because it's easiest to get away with not having Rein there

I miss the times when dive comps were common and Rein was seen as a troll pick in koth compared to winston

I have all of her skins already

forcing heroes out of the game with the current small pool is not gonna do what you are saying.
this is not LoL with 1000 heroes
the bans will be constant and they won't ever vary
>S:76, rein, ana
