If Mercy's ult doesn't lose half its bonuses before hitting live I am done.

best day everrr~

>tfw you finally figure out sombra's spray pattern

hehe i am unstoppable

People enjoying that are as pathetic as the crying ones.

Almost went with that for the OP.

They wanted to coordinate and communicate with you and you went asocial on them. They decided working around you wasn't worth the hassle and threw the game. Pretty straight forward. I don't blame you for doing it and I don't blame them for not wanting to deal with it. Welcome to the wonderful Overwatch community BTW. Everyone is a bitter fuck.

You'll be in good company; other asocial fucks like yourself.

Here comes T.Racer!

With the changes for Orisa, Junkrat, D.Va, Mercy and Widow, I'm curious to see how the game will be for the next season.
Do you think the meta will change?

...

i was in a 4 stack m8

But without him in voice chat they still might have won. If they decide to throw, they have no chance. Throwing is fucking dumb. There is no excuse.

New mercy is pretty fun

So this is what you guys get huh
Pretty mild

Then your post was stupid because you should know by now that's how this shit goes.

Are you ready go to the Tovlosthin then getting TK'd by Mercy: 76?

???

>all these changes a still nothing for my boy.
I know he just got something but it feels more like a quality of life change than an actual buff.
I'll still keep playing him though he's the only reason I still play

Accurate. It's funny to see the tears. But to tell people how much you enjoyed the tears is.. Gross.

thanks for the W (double-you)

You'se only count from regulars
Do GO players think spray patterns are good for their game?

Human condition. Overwatch community. No helping either. You post is basically

>Guy on Overwatch was retarded

WOW STOP THE PRESSES BOYS THIS IS A REAL NEWS PIECE RIGHT HERE

Damage getting nerfed.

it wasnt news it was a question why someone would have that retarded as fuck mentality to throw a game over almost nothing

The damage was never the problem. It's the regen, no reloading, and being 20 seconds long, while having the same charge rate as before.

I WANT A REINHARDT TITTYPAD

You should have

Orisa sees quit a bit more use. If your team focuses down her barrier (it still has less than half the HP of Rein's), she will be manageable. If they don't, she will be hellishly annoying.

Junkrat sees just a little bit more use. A lot more at the start, but less and less as comp teams bully the shitters who flock to him into switching, and as said shitters realize that just because Junkrat was buffed doesn't mean that their skill with him was buffed.
He is already very powerful in good hands, and this will only help that. Every 50 games or so, be prepared to run into a godlike Junkrat who kills at least half of your team every fight.

D.Va will see nearly-ubiquitous usage in all modes of play. She'll show up in at least 80% of all games that you play. She's just too good at pouncing on people and deleting them. But be prepared to have almost no protection, since one of your tanks isn't blocking shit.

Mercy is weird. Usage stays about the same until it starts trailing off. A bunch of shitter girl Mercy mains migrate over to Lucio, a bunch more just stay with Mercy but use her with a fraction of her new effectiveness, and a small, elite class of Mercy players come to terrorize their opponents.

Widow stays in about the same place in terms of usage, because you still have to actually be able to hit heads, but the people who play her enjoy it a bit more and are less shy about picking or instalocking her.

Roadhog sees a bit more use, at least enough to remind people that he's still pretty powerful.

It's nice that you finally got your OP from the last thread i noticed

McCree is a pleasant and rewarding character to play, and even without any change I get why you play him.

>no bullet wounds

But why!

IS there dick in this image? Or is the artist sing a tease

>Mercy mains switching to /yaboy/
>Radhog is pretty good-despite being ultimately shit
>Nothing about the fact Rein now has the ability to turn his head around, amazing for so many cocky flankers
Bar that, then yeah sound like decent predictions

I don't even do it for the recognition, or to take some weird pride in beating people to the punch, like people in YouTube comments back in the day going for "first."

I just want the thread to be good.
I want the OP to be useful and up-to-date. If the image could be pertainent to whatever's going on or, if nothing's going on, at least be qt and/or aesthetic, that'd be nice.
I really just want to be helpful.

Tease.

Anyone want to rank up? I can help you get to diamond on PC.

I never said it was bad. I just thought it was kinda cute :}

Queue together? Or is this a 'give you my account' deal?

What a nice user

I don't understand why they do that only to get shit on by everyone cause their one shot gimmick doesn't work

Do you have a discord?

>Mercy mains switching to /yaboy/
There's a significant subset of them that want to accomplish things simply by existing near their teammates.
Even if they don't stick with Lucio in the long run, quite a few old Mercy mains will at least try him out.

>Radhog is pretty good-despite being ultimately shit
He can be amazing if he just has like half of the team including him dedicated to helping him out. Put a barrier in front of him and attach a healer to his hip, and he is really powerful
>no shit user
Yeah, but moreso than almost any other hero would be with the same amount of team support.

So Mr Jamal your highness, how much will it cost to get your throne back?

>doesn't answer the question
Doesn't everyone.

>only have two days to get there on my own
>stopped filling, started fragging
>winstreak
>climbed out of my 600 SR hole
>back on the edge of Diamond
>know that I can do this

I'll succeed or fail on my own.

>Widow [...]the people who play her enjoy it a bit more
Well, that's kinda cool. I like her but actually that's really frustrating to be - somehow - a free chicken to fry

>Radhog is pretty good-despite being ultimately shit

Roadhogs basically unkillable 1v1 with his nano-boost armor level heal and his team utility is literally pulling some poor soab into your team. Are you still upset he can't instagib people? Is that why he's still ultimately shit? lol

widow will be everywhere, shes pretty much broken now and without dva matrix to shut down hitscan they basically have no answers
dva will be in 100% of games, unquestionably, shes completely insane right now
mercys already got a retarded pickrate, nothing about that will change, but certain healer comps will probably be better now that she has a decent group heal but its not like mercy players will be capable of utilizing it
junkrats still trash and the buff does almost nothing but make rollouts easier
orisas change was qol, her shield shape isnt why she isnt used and fixes nothing about her design flaws, shes still gonna see zero use outside of autistic "maining"

There's a way to discuss and disagree about nuance without being a shitter about it.

Fuck off.

To answer your question I cant queue with you if you are below 2500 because of SR difference. What's your SR right now?

I gathered.
I just didn't want to seem like I'm in it for the wrong reasons. :>

Who is your main and why?

Bogpill me about this "Let's defend R66 at the petrol station without even trying to defend the payload before, even if the final point of the attackers is right in front of it so if they make it there we lose" thing I saw in 4000+ SR games owg.
I only see this in high ranked games in streams, lower ranked streamers never do it neither do I see it in my shitter mmr level.

I WANT TITTYPAD user TO GET HIS TITTIPAD

i main mystery heroes because it has the highest skillcap and is the most fun

>Fixed a bug that occasionally caused the heroes’ “sigh” voice line to play when respawning

Toxicity removed one step at a time

How do we crowdfund this.

fill because the heros in this game are few and easy
because the chokepoint is literally right there
you don't defent THE objective, you defend the chokepoint

>Mercy
I'd say Symm probs gets more of an influx than /yaboy/ since the playstyles are very similar. /yaboy/ is just too much of a paradigm shift.

>Raddesthog
That applies to every hero in the game. The point is that every hero needs to be able to do one thing very well, which Hog doesn't still really do. Rein can shield, Zen can heal and DPS etc. Every hero is amazing if you want to put an amazing player on them, but in reality he still doesn't really do anything well. He won't be OHKOing anymore, it's very bad for his team for him to bodytank and his hooks interaction is unreliable/hooks cd is very long if it's supposed to be a displacer

>Tittiepad?
It's a notable buff at the least (At least on the level of Widow's QoL), as he can aim his charge whilst the flanker doesn't know/ aim his shatter whilst everyone on the enemy team doesn't know.

Defenders inherently have spawn disadvantage(they have to walk farther) so by giving them some free push you trade for making their spawn walk time a bit longer. Besides that you can easily control the gas station and the cliffs from that position, giving you oppressive positioning(tracer would have to flank all the way around and behind the gas station to get to your healers).

>fighting a fair fight for no fucking reason when defending

McCree because when I hear that dink it makes my day feel a lot better

No way there isn't a "custom waifu breast pad" site somewhere

Shame your high skill dink only did 41 dmg

I've got 200 hrs on Lucio because he's way better on console if you can ride well. This season has been exclusively Doomfist though and he's fucking insane.

yeah

>/yaboy/ is just too much of a paradigm shift.
It's difficult to wallride and get boops and be where you're needed while staying alive.
It's not difficult to play Lucio poorly. What do you think they were doing before?

But Symm is also good to bring up. TP is a lot like old rez in terms of changing a teamfight, and not having to aim her deathbeam is a plus.

>The point is that every hero needs to be able to do one thing very well, which Hog doesn't still really do.
Very good point. Wouldn't have thought of it that way.

Remapped to L1? Same

That's not real right? Right?

lol

I don't really have a "main". I have 2 or 4 characters I play more than the others ( Mercy, Lùcio, Reaper and Junkrat ).
I don't have 200 hours on Mercy, more like 50 on each.

Why is Mei so T H I C C

>He's a close range DPS!!!
>What, the heros he should be countering are actually countering him?
>Who cares, 'This (Dive) is the most healthy meta we have had yet'-Jeff Kaplan
When will they learn that McCree is the unscoped sniper. It fits his theme, fits his kit and is easier to balance

I didn't say they wouldn't change to Lucio, only more would go to Symm etc. Lucio requires aim, offensive positioning and his unique skill of knowing how to chain wallrides to get from A-B asap. He's not the Lucio we used to have any more he's anti-shitter

It's real and they got a flat out bimbo to play Widow. It's jarring

Polar regions.

>porn companies can not only freely engage in prostitution but can do whatever with copyrighted ips

Truly we are the proletariat

>want Sombra's Tulum skin
>But I'm also a huge halloweenfag
Damn it Jeff, I hope those halloween skins will be good.

>tfw no tiny rebreathers in our timeline
Bulkless scuba would be so fun

Are you seriously saying that Hanzo isn't the unscoped sniper and that we need less midrange DPS?

Get out of my office.

You should be able to save 3k coins in 2 months though a sexy technomancer might be worth ensuring you get it

Jesus fucking christ. What heroes do they have in it?

What really sucks about the DM nerf is that Bastion/Orisa is even more powerful, especially on hybrid maps like Eichenwalde and Hollywood

Just Widow and Reaper for not

Watch the trailer at your own disgression pornhub.com/view_video.php?viewkey=ph57e545868fa79

lol complaining about either/both of those heroes

>be me in trash elo
>this is gonna be gud
I mean, d.va "no fun allowed in my games" was boring af, but now she isn't a tank anymore

* for now

>Bastion rework
>Ever powerful
Lol, this isn't launch at the first 20 levels m8

Can't wait for the Orisa Buff
Gotta rep my waifu!

Fucking awful is what it is. Oh well.

You've dropped from #354

Leave and never come back shitter

Blizz cuck here. should i buy 24 boxes, and then another 24, to ensure best chances, or just buy 50?

>all defense hero are deleted from the game
Is it fixed? What would change? Inb4 urr durr dive meta is even stronger now, we all know that mei can't stop dive

>Oversnatch
>those party city costumes
>the effects
I need to see this in its entirety.

Huh? I didn't play comp enough. I usually post my non comp rank

>What would change?
Absolutely nothing. All defense heroes are meme picks. Skilled players can used them to great effect, but they'd be more useful playing something else.

I don't get what you're trying to fix by doing that though

50 dumbass. It don't do anything different

Nah, they just decided to give them animated shorts as compensation. Even Bastion is useless now, whereas he used to have a small niche

>What would change?
Nothing
Defense heroes are so ass they have no impact on the game at levels that matters.

It's not a /BIG DEAL/ but it'll definitely be more annoying, especially with Mercy's rework

Mainly hanzo and widowmaker "trust me i am and hanzo god, even if i can't get a kill without scatter harrow for shit" player.
Less shitter to worry about

mei.
because she's cute.
and i love her playstyle. i tend to do better when i have a it of time to think about what i should do next, and all of her kit basically gives you a breather every 6 seconds.
