You sure you want to do that to someone capable of creating cyborgs, bringing dead people to life and capable of resisting the damages of time?
I think you're the one who will cry like a little bitch

genji deathmatch is simply ebin
his concentrated cancer really gets to shine through in the game mode
genji kids will STILL defend him though

>In silver >Enemy team has a gold Reaper who's 1v6ing us and he's paired with a bronze Mercy who doesn't have to do anything but sit on the point and heal people Why is this allowed?

How to improve FFA Deathmatch: Remove Genji's Dash reset Remove Defense Matrix Remove Concussion Blast Remove Biotic Field Remove Hook? Remove Flashbang? Remove Tac Visor Remove Lucio's boop? Remove any map that isn't purpose built for FFA Remove Scatter Arrow
Did I miss anything?
Blake Fisher
All male heroes should turned female or be removed from the game. Thoughts?
Blake Parker
You don't fucking say, dipshit, too bad it doesn't actually work like that in reality

Robert Green
Who counters doom fist
Jason Rodriguez
Roadhog, Kind of. He has no single hard counter.
Dominic Allen
Agreed
Aiden Robinson
It does though; kinda shit gold, paired with a really shit bronze, balances to regular shit silver. Don't pretend like that gold was going to carry the silver game to victory. Under masters theres a reason you can pair with someone within 1000SR, and in masters+ its within 500SR.
Aiden Phillips
I wish she was my straight girlfriend...
Hunter Gray
Why are there so many color aimbotters? This dude was spiraling around instantly headshotting everyone. Our Winston dropped a bubble on them and they started spinning around 360 fast as fuck then disconnected.
He's like the 6th I've seen today.
Josiah Moore
Sombra, Reaper, Roadhog, McCree, Zenyatta
Christian Ward
>Junkrats in every single fucking match Will the nerf even hit his playrate? There's no point in playing ranked as long as this piece of shit is around
Camden Long
Sombra. Hack him, and all he can do is shoot hit shotgun. He's pretty fucking useless at that point.
Evan Long
Exactly how does a bronze player on healslut duty and a gold player who mains DPS balance out to "regular shit silver"?
Evan Nguyen
Please stop saying mean things about my waifu.
Noah Anderson
I'm so tired of that aussie fuck.
Charles Phillips
Moronic retards always home in on whatever class the forums say are OP or have just been buffed, you'll stop seeing them as often after a week or two when they go back to Genji or Pharah; tired of always missing their shots because they can't into basic geometry.
Luis Gonzalez
Do the opposite.
Kevin Carter
>prebuff *heroname* - people whine that he's too weak, you get yelled at and have a high chance of someone tilting and picking a troll character >postbuff *heroname* - gets picked almost every game, people whine that he's too strong >Blizzard caves in to whiner and nerfs him back into unplayable state every fucking time
Xavier Parker
Tracer a shit! SHIT!
Sebastian Ward
Every single other character.
>anyone with a ranged weapon shoots him before he gets in range >Reinhardt beats the shit out of him while Doomie tries to punch him to death if he doesn't simply charge and pin his ass
Not even Junkrat mains wanted him to get buffed you retard
Michael Sullivan
A good dev team would just buff everyone else.
High powered heroes for higher skill ceiling, forum jockeys want a fucking hour-long TTK average so they can play on their phones in their other hand just like their shitty moba assfaggots game.
Brandon Gutierrez
Tracey is small, Please, only say nice things about her
Julian Bell
This. A buff on the RIP-tire could have a be nice, for sure. But the double mines + that insane buff? Nope. I play Junkrat a lot since the beta, and I never asked for something that stupid
Austin Myers
LOL DED GAEM
Daniel Nguyen
She looks like a nice person.
Brody Robinson
Stupid lesbomaniac
Wyatt Allen
i do.
Bentley Stewart
That was pretty good, actually. Still annoying that the actual map and reason we're there has nothing to do with Junkrat's secret treasure.
Eli Thompson
>Did I miss anything? Remove Mei.
Adrian White
Didn't you hear him? Be nice!
Brody Thomas
Well, he's a gold dps which means he's just below average across the player base. Maybe good aim but bad positioning, or bad aim and decent position.
The bronze mercy is really shit and more likely to be out of place, not healing appropriate targets, not rezzing correctly, and not damage boosting correctly.
Luke Williams
A competent dev would balance/nerf everybody, by a tiny amount, every 2 weeks. Not this sledgehammer total teardown bullshit every few months.
Also what is the maintenance today supposed to be about, are they actually adding anything or is it to unfuck the noregs bug?
Christopher Morgan
Why are the comics always so short
Kayden Walker
Here's a better version of that picture for ya buddy.
Carter Jones

Adam Hernandez
I want to see how much smaller her hands are than mine!
Angel Lopez
>play comp. >1 guy instapicks mercy. >2 girls bitch at him for picking mercy. >check career profiles. >the 3 of them are mercy mains. >we almost lost because the girls couldn't play anything besides mercy. Holy fuck how annoying can mercy mains really get, they bitched the whole match and played like shit. I hope ALL mercy mains get gassed desu.
Alexander Jenkins
Server maintenance, you have to do maintenance on servers regularly so they don't slowly degrade over time.
Blizzard commissions them instead of using in-house artists, and usually through DeviantArt. The artists are sometimes good, sometimes shit, but I think a lot of them don't have experience doing comics and don't realize the amount of work it takes when they agree to do them.
The Lesbian Tracer comic really shows, has a lot of QUALITY shit in it because they started getting lazy and tired of working on it.
Brandon Powell
Tracey is very beautiful. I want to marry her and be her loving husband for the rest of eternity!
Daniel Sanchez
Blizzard is annoyingly reluctant to ever go forward with the actual story.
I mean we are more then a year after "Recall" and the only hero apart from Tracer who aswered is Mei who is still in the middle of fucking Antarctica...
Brayden Thompson
It was nice seeing inside Roadhog's head for once. But I would have liked to see some of his past life, at least a panel's worth of flashback. Not sure why that couldn't have been included.
Anthony Bailey
>husband
Men GET OUT! Tracey is for girls only!
Caleb Russell
>gold reaper >1v6ing anyone
David Flores
I still really like that one guy's idea that Talon and the old remnants of Overwatch are still secretly working together to overthrow IRIS who has been controlling the nation's governments, and their rivalry is only there to confuse it.
Anthony Mitchell
I just want to play payload, is that too much to ask?
William Hill
>Remove any map that isn't purpose built for FFA
The only not worthless proposition among a pile of shit.
Grayson Torres
The worst part of OW's "story" is that so much of it could be put in the game as maps or Uprising-style PvE Horde modes that would have accompanying skins and develop the characters a lot. This would please everyone. Storyfags get to bask in all the lore and even if they're going to move the actual current story ahead slowly, at least the backstory will be fully explorable. People who play to just shoot people will get new maps and skins.
Like they could release a Young Roadhog skin from his ALF days and have the attack on the Omnium as a multiplayer and PvE map where you're trying to blow it up. Maybe Junkrat's dad was there and you could have a Junkrat skin that makes him look like him. They could have you play through the coup at OW HQ where Jack and Gabe supposedly died, have it in Multiplayer as a Control/2CP map or something, the Arcade version can have one player on each team randomly selected to be Jack or Gabe with buffed health.
They could do a lot with it, and they just don't. Instead there's some shitty 10 page comic every couple months or waiting 9 months to watch some fat chick brush her teeth.
Brody Hughes
why do people make this game so hard for themselves?
this guy tells me not to play genji cause they have a mccree, even though it's not a problem for me he influences everyone else on the team to believe him
Samuel Green
I do this to my gold girlfriend. The sad thing is that sometimes we still lose when I have over 50 elimse and like 20k damage. You can win most but not all.
Liam Ross
I think that is highly unlikely after the Ana and Doomfist comics. Reaper seems pretty willing to kill his old buddies and even if he isn't Doomfist seems to want it to happen.
I think a more likely scenario is that Winston and Tracer will get a new OW together while s76 and Ana will find out some secret conspiracy that will require them to join forces. Then there will be redemption arcs for Widow, Reaper and maybe something for Sombra (although she already seems to be doing her own thing) and they can take on the megahuge new threat.
If blizz is smart they will steer the story in this direction and hit this point at the exact same time when the PvE co-op OW expansion/new game comes out.
Mason Morris
>because someone might judge you Because I want to win and am a team player unlike half the players who think this game is CoD
Chase Young
What a retard, I play McCree and Genji is annoying as fuck unless he's blown all his CDs at which point if he's still around you he's a shit Genji. I can't believe retards still go around with the whole "McCree counters Genji and Tracer" meme. Those matchups are even at worst.
Brody Johnson
Reminder that Jack HATES mexicans
Dylan Hill
i hate people who play this game, they're so frustrating lol
Cameron Scott
Tracer is twice as cancerous in FFA. Not gonna argue that he is, but Tracer is so much worse. At least with Genji all you have to do is play around his deflect.
Sebastian Hughes
Yes, enjoy your 2CP.
Caleb King
Oh this takes me back...
Julian Lopez
why does slodier hate mexicans?
Eli Morgan
Not the little girls...the creep.
Jonathan Torres
didnt he live in dorado for some time?
Justin Mitchell
Probably because they all want to get pregnant and fat, as directed by the Vatican.
Angel Hughes
he was in dorito hiding from the fuzz
Grayson Davis
>STILL no "save highlights" button LMAO
Connor Collins
New comic when?
Christian Roberts
he hated every minute of it
Luke Anderson
ohh
James Richardson
>be me, playing comp >"how we doing today boys" >silence >we have a fucking auto-lock Hanzo on Attack >ohnoyoudont.jpeg >immediately grab Tracer >beg him to switch >he types those dreaded words "no I'm a Hanzo main" >fuck it, let's just play
>first round goes well, I have 3 golds >"alright team that went well, just stick to the same roles and I'll switch to To-" >everybody switches roles, we now have 4 DPS and 1 healer >"are you all fucking kidding me" >they all rush out >decide to go D. Va >we get washed in 90 seconds >i still have 3 golds at the end of the match
did they literally just throw or are people so incompetent that they cannot be guided to victory?
