>no blue thread
Disgusting

Roadhog (haven't touched him since the nerf, but I had too many hours on him to surpass quickly so he's still at the top)

McCree

Zenyatta

I'm sure she keeps it nice and freshened up with premium French perfume.

>3k viewers for eSports on PlayOverwatch account

I feel sorry for you if this is the only way you can have fun

1) Mei 2) Widowmaker 3) Tracer

Here comes T.Racer!

I WANT A REINHARDT TITTYPAD

Poor babby. Don't worry, schools start up again soon.

Reindard
Zarya
Hanzo

Post cute

Overwatch baby league yesterday.

>being this blatant of a le epic trull i say thing that make u mad xd

Here's your (you), now scamper off.

...

No, user. No anger. I genuinely feel sorry for you for being pathetic and hope you grow up one day.

>he still plays Overwatch

...

Sombra online.

...

Here's your (You) ;^]

>King's Row
>Winston is just walking around doing nothing, saying Hello! to the other team.
>Reach the last checkpoint and he suddenly gets super aggressive and carries

I have seen this exact scenario at least 2 times, is this some kind of meme I'm not aware of?

Here you go boss. Here's the cute you ordered.

>i-i am not angry!!!1 stop it!!!1
:^)

...

I love Angela!

I want to make her happy and help her achieve her dreams!

...

...

Next seasons goal: golden widow gun!

Overall?

>D.Va
>Sombra
>Hanzo

Comp
>D.Va
>Zenyatta
>Soldier

From thickest to skinniest, what's the ranking on asses with the female heroes?

For comp:

D.Va

Lucio

Tracer

For Quickplay:

D.Va

Mei

Tracer

Ana
Pharah
Lucio

From best to worst:

Widow (she thicc boi)
Mercy (check out the winged victory skin boi she thicc)
Symmetra (she thicc)
Pharrah (she probs has a crazy ass under her suit)
Mei (shes a fat fuck so shes lower on the list)
Tracer (she looks like a little girl)
D.Va (she looks like she's 8 years old)
Ana (dude she's an old woman)


I'm excluding Zarya because she's a sterioids taking muscle butch and Orisa because she's a robot.

>Mei, not near or at the top

List discarded.

bruh it doesn't count if shes fat. If you think fatties are thicc then you're a chubby chaser and need to kill yourself.

>Sombra
>Torb
>Rein

>I looted 61 items for Roadhog
>0/6 emotes

>no sombra

Weak.

>looted 20 items for Roadhog
>4 emotes
>3 skins, 2 of which are legendaries
>couple of victory poses and the rest are sprays and voice lines

And I don't even play him that often.

Roadhog
Zarya
Zenyatta

If it wasn't for chubby chasers you wouldn't exist, user.

...

Much better

...

>Tracer (she looks like a little girl)
>D.Va (she looks like she's 8 years old)
You dislike youth

>removing the pooskins
good man

>not deleting everything except Widowmaker

>removing the pooskins
>not removing the blooskins

I WANT TITTYPAD user TO GET HIS TITTYPAD

>Enemy team is running a premade Mercy and Junkrat who just sit behind Orisa shield and spam grenades at us
Is there any way you can deal with this on your own or do you just have to rely on your team knowing how to dive somewhat competently? My best bet seems to be to pink Monkey and try to catch Junkrat out of position but he never leaves his butt buddy

How do i aim Ana grenade? I found her to be incredibly fun but i always miss with it

>what is ranged dps

>have 10 hours on widow
>all spent getting demolished by masters+ with hundreds of hours on her
do I have to buy the game again to actually have a shot at getting better with her

Symmetra balls at the shield. Or Bastion at the shield.

Mercy

D.va

Junkrat

in that order, try and bully me

Sym spam or going Pharah and hoping their Orisa is hopeless at leading their shots

>pick monkey
>have someone else pick D.Va
>monkey and D.Va dive in
>monkey puts down shield
>D.Va and monkey focus on Mercy
>monkey shield goes down
>D.Va uses defense matrix
>Monkey finishes the job

if you're lucky you'll be able to kill both the Junkrat and the Mercy, depends on how far their team is relative to them.

Find me a ranged DPS who can break Orisa shield on their own and I'll make sure to pick it

>normal skin > blooskin > pooskin

Have you ever tried to aim? Not bully, but Jesus, maybe you are even good at it

>how can I counter two peolple alone in a team game
jeez kid, I guess if the enemy has a Pharmercy and your team has a Reaper, Symmetra, Reinhardt, Doomfist, Lucio you're fuck as well, tough luck.

just play phara ?

I wanna breed Pharah!

...

Whelp, time to learn how to play Ana

blooberries are NOT for fucking

>Pick Symmetra
>Team spam YASSSSSSSSS at me
Y-You too.

I promise you'll like it user...

call of duty man

needhealing

cowboy (mexican refugee is close 4th)

What the fuck is this YAAAAAAAAS shit?
I have to hear people saying YAAAAAS in real life now too and I wonder if anyone realizes it makes you sound like a literal retard.

I want to watch and supply cold refreshments

Zenyatta
Mercy (but i'm doing my best with ana)
Ana

please dont

So is Sym better than Zen if you need to counter shield faggotry and you're stuck playing support?

Beginner Zarya tips?

>ana
>2017

Definitely. Symmetra doesn't give a fuck about shields

It's just some new normalfag shit. Pay no mind.

Yes, the energy balls aren't even that big of a deal but if you spam it at a Rein/Orisia they freak the fuck out.

I'm mediocre at best, but coming from someone who hasn't played any shooters recently and only got the game like a week ago, there's still time to unmeme myself, season 6 will be my season ^.^

I WANT TO GO TO BRONZE

Dont bother,just pick lucio/zen. Your shots will get blocked by monkey/dva most of the time and she really fell out of the current meta.

As much as i love to play ana i wouldnt recommend it.

With the rework of dva, i think she will be viable again. Obviously mercy will still be the safer option unfortunately

Practice your tracking with the beam on single targets

If they are bunched up or far away, pelt with alt-fire

You can alt-fire at less than 25 ammo and still do full damage

Bubble against incoming damage not against damage you think might happen

Bubble essentially makes you or your target invincible against huge one-shots, like D.Va bombs or Meatier strikes

You can use alt-fire to give you a tiny boost up to places just outside jump height

Track abilities like deflect and defense matrix to avoid it being wasted

You can alt-fire and ult-immeidately afterwards, this can be helpful for squeezing out a little more damage and since the ult follows the alt-fire arc, if you need to judge exactly where to place your ult

Don't think of the bubble as a shield, think of it as a second of invincibility you can give to other people. Don't be eager to just blow your bubbles immediately, wait for opportunities to use them. Bubble yourself only during pushes when you're confident enough to go all out, or when your healer can be trusted to keep you healed so you can use it offensively, or when your healer is preoccupied so you have to save yourself.

Poke with her gun's M2 and when you hit 40+ charge you can be like a real DPS and feel more confident cutting into people. At this point M2 becomes a tool to rapidly burst and finish people off. Practice aiming M2, this is where half her skill ceiling is.

Your ult is the slowest charging ult in the entire game, useless on its own 99% of the time, and can turn the tide of the game. Make sure you always combo it with someone else's ult and don't waste it.

>lucio
>bloo
>gengu

I want a Mercy tittypad

Since you probably made that post just for that

>Playing Hanzo
>See friendly D.Va being chased down by a reaper
>just as Reaper blows her out of her mech I scatter arrow the little fag
>D.Va has the cruiser skin
>Looks at me and goes "Hey Daddio!"
>I get a bowby

Finally. Someone with taste.
