>80% of this general are under plat

Here comes T.Racer!

>he plays competitive video games

I finished grinding boxes for the week, gonna use my new found freedom to draw some stuff.

Any requests?

I just made plat tonight owg. What now?

Grats, you're below mediocre now. Try and get good?

>this will be canon in my lifetime
>probably along with Gency

Feels good

what is this disgusting male body

>best friend of 10 years ditched me
>played all night to take my mind off of it

there is no reason not to kill myself

>Finally trying out the DSPStancio buff

Most fun I've had playing in weeks

D.Va upskirt

Traps are hot, what are you a faggot?

Jesse is a cool cowboy.
i NEED this skin.....

Uprising's legendary difficulty wants to make me kill myself both on PC and especially on console.

today I made my first potg with zenyatta in competitive, can I have a zenyatta chilling in the middle of a small lake?

does anas scope move differently compared to widows? i find hers much easier to aim.

Diddums

You only got the second greentext right.

Why is it so fucking hard to get a POTG as Zarya?
>ult the entire team at the exact perfect moment
>slam 100% charge big blue balls into all six of them
>5/6 kills credit me in the kill feed
>POTG is Tracer shoving her bomb in the middle of them and fucking off

Now that you mention it i dont see it often. Though ive seen her steal it from dps getting the kills in her ult.

How much damage did you do to them?
Could have been because Tracer outdamaged you, you know, 400x6 being 2400.

once I realized that you can leave the game before having to watch the POTG I always do it, It's fun the first few times but after a while it gets boring
especially because 90% of them are soldier pressing A

>competitive
>attacking eichenwalde
>steamroll enemy first point
>one enemy disconnect
>game not counted
what the fuck??

>playing any other kind of video games
the last time i played some game for immersion and not to compete was when i was a child

>soldier pressing A
So... moving left??

>he still stays in the match after VICTORY/DEFEAT screen appears

I don't think that's likely to be fair, I lost 9/10 placement matches and got into high gold, just had to win 3 games in a row to get plat

>gold elo
I'll never troll pick again

>stomp lobby two times in a row
>next map
>put into the crappy lobby to enforce 50/50
Thanks Blizzard. Instead of just finding better opponents, you lump me in with the retards in a half-assed attempt at fairness.

>People who spam "We need a healer!" instead of changing to a healer

Now this is just brilliantly done:

>people who are so desperate for levels that they can't even enjoy the game that they're playing
Why do you even play videogames desu? I'm about to be silver portrait and I've literally never come across anyone that's felt the need to skip POTG. Have you been diagnosed with a terminal illness or something?

Is it normal to take a lot of deaths as an offensive Symmetra? I'm talking like 5-6 deaths solo queue quick play

I don't care about levels, the POTG are just pointless, I'd rather just play and enjoy the game

I like when I got chosen for the potg (which is not very often as a zenyatta main)
it make me feel like I accomplished something meaningful in the game and let me see other's examples of good play

im really bad at clicking heads how do i get better

lmao dude i just have no fucking interest in looking at the player cards or potg i don't give the slightest of fucks about xp

as soon as i can leave the game i leave and queue up for next

>wow look at me i did this flashy play
I'd rather actually play the game than watching a replay.

>Ana is now less deadly and less self-reliant by extension
>Mercy is boring as shit and defenseless
>Zen heals are shit and he has no get-out-of-shit-free card
>and now Lucio is basically useless as a healer

Why are they making it so hard to want to play a healer?

>Blizzard is able to determine who the retards are and they are also actively expending effort to make sure you and I get grouped up with them
I dunno, man. It totally feels like this is the case, but we honestly gotta consider the possibility that we just aren't good enough to carry the average 15 year old Hanzo.

if it's anythjing like counterstrike you never move your mouse up or down so you always point at their head

>and now Lucio is basically useless as a healer
?????????????

he heals 30% more now though. He just needs to be played by someone with a brain now.

>playing Soldier
>enemy Winston drops near me (not on me)
>I start sprinting away
>he outruns me and kills me

It was away from the point and from our teammates too, so he wasn't being speedboosted either.

Looks like Fareeha's lucky day

>thinking kaplan would allow chu's autism to ruin the game


ahh, lad.

>he plays video games
tabletop OW game when

>not dropping a healing field and destroying the winston

??????????

Low rank spotted

He's now the only healer that depends on teammates not being disabled, which is not the case in 99% of people below Master.

This is too cute

What overwatch merch do you own?

The game

I am goodish with tracer reaper mcree and zarya who is better to carry 1800 SR random russians?

>1800
>good

KEK

>copypasted faces
>brain dead dialogue

probably zarya because of all of those heroes zarya is the only one in the meta

Why waste a cooldown on something that should have mathematically been impossible. Had I gotten some distance between us as I should have, I could have deleted him for free. But for some reason my 8.25m/s got outran by his 5.5.

>solo healing as Zen on defense
>we're doing okay
>suddenly our tanks are about to die and I can't heal them fast enough
>don't want to be left alone with flankers and snipers
>ult to save tanks
>hit with barrage of enemy ults immediately after

Solo healing as Zen is suffering.

>copypasted faces
Wait. What?

the potg's are usually shit because they overvalue ult usage

like when i play tracer and have a great game i have no interest in staying to watch the potg because if it's me, it's probably me using a pulse bomb on a graviton when in that match i had some much more impressive plays of perfectly tracking hard to hit targets like genji but that sort of shit never gets highlighted by the potg

Speedboost stays 2 seconds after leaving the circle.

were you playing QP or why were you solo healing as zen

I was entering the building with the large healthpack on first point Volskaya, he dropped down on the stairs. Our teams were on the second point, I'm not even sure they had a Lucio.

you cant outrun winston his jump is on a short cd. running away was stupid because he got free damage on you while you ran and he would have bursted you down on his next jump if you decided to fight after running. you were dead the moment you started running

saw this on twitter
you can't make this shit up

How is it lucky if it isn't Reinhardt putting on that blue armor?

QP but being team killed through Zarya+Genji+Ana combos (overkill) still hurts my feelings because the other team probably thinks they're being so slick when it's just my team being absolutely retarded (playing snipers and flankers/not enough tanks and healers).

Why is Orisa's design so horrible

Even her animations look like shit

save zen ult FOR zarya/genji ult, not before
its a giant waste otherwise
you can have your tanks die and back off for a little with yourself and dps poking enemies, or you can bust your load before the enemy ults and get team wiped

>qp server has 11/12 players
>oh somebody left better send everyone back to menu
why are blizzard so retarded

Cuteness overload

a shirt, it doesn't fit well and is made of cheap materials

someone bought it for me and I feel kinda bad about it

It's probably because they try to match people as fast as possible. And to do that, it's better to have a big pool of players in the queue, instead of having them in several half-full, almost-starting matches.

>make sure to always say "easy game" if the other team had both Tracer and Genji (I feel like it's cheap tactics since we can only have one McCree and it's always me)
>they ALWAYS get triggered and start talking shit in chat (only the Tracer and Genji)
>always go into my profile to see my performance in previous seasons
>bring up my S1 41 and S2/3 platinum season highs
>grandmaster players thinking that they're validating themselves somehow and not just further embarrassing themselves with bringing this up

This was suppose to be in response to ().

>mccree aim bug still not fixed yet

WAT DA FUQ IS DIS SHIT??????????????????

>you can have your tanks die and back off for a little with yourself and dps poking enemies
That's the problem, it's usually just me and the one or two tanks holding them back, if the tanks die it leaves just me on the ground, in the open. I either die and we lose a point, or I retreat and we lose a point, the Hanzos and Widows certainly won't contest. It's a dilemma between being wiped right now, or being wiped a bit later, it's a loss either way.

This makes zero sense in a Star Wars sense.
First, is Ana a master? They're not allowed to have children so Pharah wouldn't be alive, that's aside Pharah pursuing a relationship with an instructor which is also not allowed. I've never been so triggered.

>be grandmaster player
>get rekt by a platinum-at-heart despite cheap tactics
>butthurtly reply to blogposts on /owg/ to feel better

Please help, I'm trapped in the hell that is irrelevancy.

Play Gold-Plat, people pick her and I cry every time.

1500 shield health or the ability to carry it. fixed

Is it just me, or are the events consistently getting worse over time? Worse items, worse gamemodes, worse thematic consistency etc.

>go to play QP
>all my team has multiple stars and 3 of us have silver potraits
>enemy team is all sub level 25 (except for one guy who had one star)
You know Blizz, if you want me to believe your shitty forced winrate isn't real, you could at least make it believable

Except for the stats telling the exact opposite story. She's picked less and less the higher you go, her pickrate is lower than Reaper.

i got the new tracer skin in a box, i want to main her now

advice?

>make shit up to feel good about the loss
>call using genji and tracer cheap tactics because you get destroyed by it
your life must be sad

be good at the game
