>that OP

Bastion is being buffed

PTR likely going up tomorrow

REMOVE FAWKES

Where you was when Bastion saved Overwatch?

Im just level 129 stop giving me level 300+ autists in quickplay

...

BASTION MAINS WHERE WE AT

RECON MAIN SOON

...

>Bastion buffs coming

Finally my meme pick wont get yelled at.

Sombra online.

>thinking level matters
look at their rank

user, NO! He's a good boy, why would you want to do that?

>This event
I swear to fucking god Jeff and Co. tampered with the RNG on this one.
I never, ever, EVER, had drop rates this bad, especially on event boxes.
For fucks sake, I'm not even getting event sprays or voice lines.
And I have 500 hours in the game.

but they have seasonal skins and come in large groups

Amélie "aka Widowmaker" Lacroix
>tfw no skin ever

...

Wew, lad.

>BESTion gets viable
>harder to kill
>dmg on rein shield + all tanks stays the same

rip Reinhardt

>mercy didn't join until OW had presumably been an established organization for a few years
>talks as if she was there when morrison was given the commanding role

What's her deal?

I can never get 4+ kills with ults against high level player

literally as soon as they hear the voiceline they run the fuck away or spam abilities

Yeah!

Shit, this sounds like fun.

Makes me wanna play Bastion now

did ctf get reset yet?

>tfw you held a game down as Bastion alone in Numbani Defense with an Ana and Mercy making out behind you or some shit while they healed you.

There's something so satisfying about mowing down Tanks as Bastion.

>Error starting game, trying again
>Error starting game, trying again
What does that mean

>Increased spread and removing headshots

Sounds like they want to tweak Bastion so he's not so devastating to newbies but make him tougher overall

Satya Vaswani libido

Yeah, that's what happens when your opponents aren't completely braindead. The fact that you're just seeing this at level 130 instead of level 50 means that you were stuck in the shitter for a long time.

FUCK THIS INTRO

>level 300+
>get one event skin
>rest are sprays
>ooh hey, another legendary
>bastion steampunk
>another one later
>IT'S A DUPE OF THE ONE WUKONG SKIN I GOT

I'll just keep waiting for it to happen.

>talks as if she was there when morrison was given the commanding role

What?

I love pewposterous

>open box
>3 greys and a blue with average 2 duped
>get this for 10 levels with the occasional second blue
>get legendary and 2 epics
>all dupes

>Recon mode

I think a bigger magazine was all he really needed, but overall fine change.

>Sentry mode

They have to be REALLY FUCKING CAREFUL about this shit but I think moving it toward a more defined purpose (which he was already only useful for) is a good idea. Removing headshots seems ineffective and makes him get even more shit on my D. Va.

>Self-repair

Probably too far overboard, I think it was fine as it was being something to keep him in fights and self-reliant but now he can just become an unkillable faggot.

Honestly he'll probably end up replacing 76 on defense if the buffs to recon mode make him competitive.

>What's her deal?

Nothing now, she only exists to acknowledge Genji

low rank players are already struggling with him and now he gets buffed. can't wait to tell the silver ranked dude at work tomorrow who always complains about bastion and torb. gon be a good day.

If Morrison is a bit dense, does that mean he's a bit gullible?

How many times did Reyes take advantage of him?

...

>Honestly he'll probably end up replacing 76 on defense if the buffs to recon mode make him competitive.
As it should of been from the start

>"After Morrison's promotion to strike commander, his relationship with Reyes changed. The tension became more pronounced as time went on."

She didn't join until years after that happened but the comment comes off like she was there to witness it. Unless she was close with either one of them or Ana and learned about it from then?

>Had a match a few hours ago where an enemy Junkrat threw his ult
>10 secs left on the clock
>"We'll be fine, I tust my team mates to scatter so he can't get more then one of us"
>Watch as 3 of them haul ass to our Bastion like he was actually gonna do shit
>Enemy Junkrat gets a quadkill and pushes the payload to the checkpoint
Moral is, never trust anyone.

>BASTION BUFFS!!
>No headshot
>yfw it's actually a nerf

Mercy was the physician for presumably a large portion of Overwatch. Why would she not learn about the origin of a 20 year old argument so monumental it tore Overwatch apart? Everyone probably knew about it at that point. That's not implying she was there when the feud started.

Thing is he'll probably be the better offensive pick too depending on the map.

Tank sucks way less than visor for offense.

The wolf skins for hanzo make playing him much more enjoyable. You can really project your inner 17th century fur trader.

>tfw after 8 months of playan, you finally get one of these torb plays

>Thing is he'll probably be the better offensive pick too depending on the map
only if teams let him set up on payload

bang
bang
bang
53% kill participation as cowboy

Good boys finish last.

You played with your team, grats.

>Tank sucks way less than visor for offense.

wat

So is the solution to tank meta bastion? What about ana and symetra are they getting tweaked too? Or are they just gonna buff him and leave it at that??

I love Hana.

>Ana
>Symettra
>Tweaks

Bastion is fun for some weird reason.

I'm playing nothing but Tracer until I get potg to show this off.
You better hope I don't end up in your game because I am AWFUL at Tracer.

We'll have to see when the PTR goes live.

That's mean, user. Junkrat is a sweetheart and he tries very hard.

I JUST WANT EITHER ROADHOG, REIN OR WINSTON

I DON'T WANT THESE

A better recon gun is a much needed change. Even with this change he'll still have his Lmao tank sized hitbox when compared to 76.

Sounds like she had enough time to turn away

>Be Pharah hovering above point to take it
>Enemies move in
>Fire ult at monkey
>Right at that moment he pops his shield
>End up killing myself


>Flanking on point B on Vodskaya
>Enemies are grouped up
>Release the ult
>One of those stupid platforms slides udner me and blocks my angle
>Turn away as I almost kill myself


>On point, control center of Lijiang Tower
>Zarya ults
>Pop above and release my barrage though the holographic thingy in the center
>Realize it's not all holographic and it has a solid center (towards the top where I was)
>Turn away and barely avoid kiling myself

>Attack point B on King's Tower
>Zarya ults
>Jetpack above to get a good angle
>End up in the scaffolding at the top almost killing myself by killing one of them

I swear to fucking god when the ult isn't a free kill to enemies it's often a ticket to stupid suicide town

What 3 characters have you been playing the most lately?

>Pharah
>Torb
>Mercy

>Even with this change he'll still have his Lmao tank sized hitbox when compared to 76.
And no sprint
And no ability to heal AND shoot at the same time, only one or the other

>roadhog
>junkrat
>Hansi because I love simple geometry

76
McCree
Pharah

Pharah's buffs made me want to get back into her but my leading ability is still pretty shit.

Winston
Phara
Winston

You can also add no rockets, but yea. He kinda needs a better recon mode and I personally doubt that that'll make him op or have him overshadow 76.

>They can't kill the tank meta so they revamped a shit hero into a wannabe tank buster like the failure reaper is

Reinhardt
Zenyatta
Either Pig or Torb

>Hansi
Embarrassing

Reaper shadow step buff when?

>>End up in the scaffolding
That happens to me all the fucking time on the final push in King's Row. I'd jet jump up to ult instinctively and wind up in the scaffolding killing myself. It's the worst feeling.

How do I get good with simple geometry? I some how scatter arrows that just part around people

Reaper is such a jobber on all levels of existence

That's it.
I'm referring to him as "Hanseatic League" from now on.

Zenyatta
Pharah
Soldier

>lose because team are retards
>get card for gold medals

Literally every qp game ever and I'm practising too, it's fuckin sad

Why does Blizzard like this metal spine thing so fucking much?

>Sombra
The devil's in the details playing Sombra, also my tracking aim is getting better, seeing red arrows so I must be doing something right

>Pharah
Can't juggle so easily any more but she still strikes terror in the enemy team when you swoop in and blow them away

>Zarya
Still the best all round secondary tank

You've got to calculate it just right.

>"Let's just keep piling shit on in hopes of ending the tank meta so we don't have to admit how overpowered Ana is."
>mfw

>tfw getting fucked on by a mei that solo blizzards you
>tfw bash her head in thoroughly at overtime hanamura B
JUSTICE WILL BE DONE

Your IQ is too low for this

>Error starting game, trying again
SOMEONE FUCKING END THIS SHIT

>Bastion eats up them tank boys
>Genjis show up to deal with the bastions
>Tank boys like Streetpig and WINston show up to deal with genji.

Cutest and best pairing

>They can't kill the tank meta
they could kill it at any moment if they wanted
they just don't want to nerf their favorite heroes (ana and rein)
this is just an excuse to get people to shut up about it, if it actually works expect them to shit on bastion in the patch after it like they did with d.va, because nobody is allowed to be good except their favorites

>Reaper deals with Winston
It' time for Gabe to shine again!

>QP
>2 tanks instalocked
>Then 2 healers
>Well, that's a new one, let's see how it goes
>We storm Anubis in one continuous push under 2 minutes
This is why most of the time I abandon the game after more than one of Shimadas/Tracer/Widow get instalocked. Team setup is never about the picks themselves really, it's about people's decision-making.

Reaper
Roadhog
Sombra

You need to have at least a PhD in algebraic topology to pull that kind of thing off.

Sleep tight, reap tight

Blizzard may be sacrificing my fun now. But if it can happen to me. It'll happen to you. It's only a matter of time...!! Unless this game ends up like hearthstone and they just pile more and more shit up hoping something works.

>When you do everything right but still lose because your teammates got greedy
I just want my rating back. Please god, why are you doing this to me?
