use aimbooster.com/ before every game, this has really improved my win rate
find the perfect mouse sensitivity for your style, and yes faggot this takes time and practice
also, get your god damn elbow off the table. your aiming speed and precision skyrockets if you can use your whole arm. you have to really lower your mouse sensitivity though, and have lots of space on your desk

Will Overwatch have the staying power of tf2 or CSGO, or will the playerbase continue to dwindle?
Easton Richardson
I won't believe it until I see a 3D render the 2D art looks too jank to be legit
Hudson Hernandez
It won't have the e-sports side of a CSGO and I don't really think the community component is as strong as TF2's but it's a Blizzard game so it really won't die. Would be interesting to see a concurrent player count from Blizzard.
Liam Peterson
How do I practice heroes like Genji and Tracer? Get in quick play and hope I have a decent lineup or play them in comp and hope I don't throw?
John Campbell
>RoadHog Damage cap is 150 with every single pellet >Falloff damage starts are 4 FUCKING METERS, meaning any enemy more than 4 meters will not take the full blunt of the new lower cap >8 meters away that damage cap is 100 damage (assuming all pellets are hitting on a large enough hitbox >This falloff carries over to his alt-fire, meaning that outside of point from the explosion, it will never more than 149 damage
Its a real fucking shame when you can be 10 meters from a sombra, and your shots only do 40 damage because of falloff and the horrible spread missing most of the shot on small hitboxes.
Nerfing Hog's damage hits him 3-fold more than anyone else, even with the increase fire rate. He can't get a reliable pick on any hero except tracer point blank (and you have to press your gun against her womb), he can't probably deal enough damage to get picks on even defenseless tanks, and his damage is curbstompped by anyone with armor.
You can't even kill a rein but just putting your gun against his back and rapid firing because the armor brings that maximum damage cap down to 75! So all 5 shots would only do 475 damage. And then on top Hog's now a healing post for reapers, who heals 50HP a second firing against him, and can't even put a dent into Orisa with fortify (damage cap is only 37 per shot)
So given that Hog only does 10 more damage per shot as reaper, has a much higher falloff and spread, a slower fire rate, a long reload time, and a smaller clip size, I have to ask how Blizzard thought that this was a nerf and not a funeral.
They literally make Reaper better in every way and made roadhog lose 1v1's with Tracers, sombras, and Symmetra's because of his new weakness. And made him unable to probably even put dents in tanks anymore.

Hudson James
Try Winston.
When playing Winston try reloading when you're using Jump Pack. If you're dueling someone aim up and jump, try to land on them and inmediatly melee them, that should give you around 70 free damage.
Also don't forget you can't kill someone being healed by a Mercy since her heals per second are equal to your Tesla Canon's dps.
Cooper Lopez

If that's true then how come not a single chess professional has a 50% winrate. There is no league where the players have an even winrate, it doesn't happen because there is no such thing in this world as an equal skill match up. It doesn't happen in sports either. It is purely a videogame construct and it functions a bit the same way that drugs do actually, to keep you addicted to playing. Basically, the formula is to entice a player with win streaks, and we know they do this because one of the devs even said in the forums that the reason placement matches place you lower than your previous season is so that they can inflate your sr gains and give you 'feelgood' winstreaks. So they do that, then they take it away with a forced loss streak to frustrate you. And you'll think "this isn't right, I have to win it back" and you'll keep playing for them and (hopefully) buying boxes
Wyatt Morales
The game needs battle themes during the matches.The quick little tunes at the beginning and end are nice but there needs to be a continuous theme for each stage as well. Doesn't have to be loud, just be audible as the background sound it would be.
Imagine doing the Hollywood map while something like this plays.

i feel like the devs have no fucking clue what they were doing when they balanced him. it's like they just wanted to churn something out to please the fanbase and actually put in effort to balance him quietly in the background.

Statistically speaking plat is above average. Diamond is something like the top 20%, master 10% and GM 3% IIRC
Plat gets shit because that's were about 1/4th of the total player base is but it's really not that bad.
Dominic Bailey
Sometimes I do have an actual good game, win or lose, where both sides are playing at the top of their game, working together, and all the good shit, and I'm having fun regardless of the outcome.
Then at the end the losing team gets assmad and starts flaming their own team and or the winning team starts going "EZ get dunked on yaaaaaas"

We need another airborne character, but unlike Pharah this one should be able to actually fly, moving around in the air as much as they please. While airborne their control would be looser and they'd be more vulnerable but they can dive and swoop and dodge in 3D.
-forearm-mounted pulse laser hitscan weapon -drops small bombs that explode on impact, have momentum when dropped at speed -maneuvering thrusters that quickly sends them in a straight line in whatever direction they were going a set distance on a fairly long cooldown, can be used to retreat or attack (deals some damage and rams people out of the way) (note that Orisa using her Fortify will stop the flier cold and deal recoil damage) -grappling cable to carry allies with for several seconds or until released -ultimate reduces the cooldown on maneuvering thrusters and ups the damage and knockback allowing several rapid passes of damaging and knocking enemies around (Orisa's Fortify in this case prevents knockback but the flier will continue past her)
Jonathan Murphy
The "stop blaming your teammates and get good" booster pack and the "stop playing ranked on weekends" bundle.
Chase Butler
What should I be looking for if I want to be a good Widow player? I average something like 8-10 elims and 1-4 deaths a round and get a pick every minute or so. I get 1-2 elims every teamfight or I force the Winston/D.Va to come after me and leave their team behind.
Is that good?

Gold and plat are the same damn tier, I've been playing with plats for days
You know what I've found? My win percentage is higher on the first two matches of the day in comp. The first match is always easy, the second is a fight. If I fuck off after and do something else, I don't seem to lose.
MMR trying to reward me for coming back? Coincidence? Dunno.

Toxicity really is killing the game. i'm only in gold and i admit i'm pretty shit, but the more i play the more reluctant i am of queuing comp. 10 minutes of stress to gain what seems like nothing, something you could lose because some wanker decides he wants to troll.
Easton Walker
My favorite is when I get a Junkrat on my team who then proceeds to do literally nothing. Like he doesn't kill anybody, he doesn't die too much, but I don't even hear him firing shots and he's nowhere near the objective or the payload or the spawn or the enemy team.

Why is it always Genji?
No, seriously, it's always Genji and on occasion, Hanzo. What is it about the weebs that make people flip the shit out about their mains?
Whenever two Mercy mains conflict they usually just pick Junkrat or D.VA. Then again, they are girls or gays.
