D.Va reporting in!

16st for reaper is a pedophile

Mei checking in

Post lewd zaryas

Superior vampire.

This is Lena "T.Racer!" Oxton with her best and dearest friend in the whole wide world, Winston! Say something nice about them!

The faggot Mercy main who did nothing when they were on my team actually decided to do shit when they were on the the enemy team. This game is trash.

They should both be nerfed

...

>he will never give you the succ

What are you hoping for from Hero 27?

Zarya, ready for duty!

An attractive white female

they are cute, cute!

>tfw it's confirmed in game he gave Jack the succ

Cute

Ones a monkey. And the other is a scientist. The scientist is cuter.

...

What is Reaper’s story with McCree?

That they release them and then hurry their development along, because they take so long to do anything that the game gets kind of stale.

As for the character themself I kind of just want someone who is interesting characterwise. Or Athena.

>We will never gonna get female characters like recluse, longshot or psyblade cause of ow team being a bunch of fags

Mw on the left

GIVE ME IRIS NOW NOW NOW NOW NOWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

She sure is.

mommy

Big Mac Niwwa for next hero

I don't think Winston would want you talking like that...

What's she saying /owg/?

70th Niggah

>recluse
Oh I get it. If it’s got bug tits, it can look like trash everywhere else. At least junker Queen looks nice all around.
>long shot
Reminds me of the fallen from Destiny if they gave them Under boobs. NEXT.
>psyblade
Legit look like that chick from Legaue it legends. With the black balls and shit.

Overall. Terrible tastes senpai

Moira's powers are better than yours.

Mama Hong. She's necessary.

How do we fix Mystery Heroes?
Hard Mode: Without removing hero stacking

DPS only

Her mistake, not mine. At least I can aim.

penispenispenispenispenispenispenispenis

Mystery heroes is fine

Stop being so bad

Mission Hill was GOAT

role quotas, diminishing chance of the same hero being rolled for every time someone rolls it

Jokes on you, that's all Reyes thinks about on a daily basis anyway.

Father.

Reaper76 faggot I know you’re lurking. I require humorous r76 art or comics.

The only issue I have with it is hero stacking. If the enemy team has 2 Zaryas, 2 D.Va and a Mercy, you're fucked.

>mfw Scatter Arrow will soon be only a memory of bad times

What are the latest stats on Rapid-Fire Arrow (should really be called Arrow Storm)? Last I heard it was 6 arrows maximum in two seconds each one doing 80 damage.

...

Who is this qt?

I have been summoned

>tfw I only play MH so I can get a chance to play DPS characters

I absolutely despite Shadow Step, it's so annoying to use.

I don't

I love to kill reapers who think they can flank me

>Playing CTF as Moira
>Enemy team tries to push us away from their flag into the choke

Despise.

Is Runaway competing in Contenders? I don't see them on the website.

We were discussing who the next character would be yesterday and the idea it would be a tank seemed pretty agreed upon and these three came up
>Sanjay
>The Queen
>Maximilien

I said I'd give a shot at Maximilien's move set, so here it is

Maximilien

>Finest Finery
Possessing a miniaturized Omnium within his frame Maximilien's own form undergoes constant scrutiny and upkeep which keeps him in a constant state of regenerating armor.
>Venture
A heavy blaster pistol that looses bolts of dark energy that zip around erratically before proceeding on their way.
>"Luck"
Tosses a coin of dark matter that draws all bolts of dark energy to it. More than one can be tossed at a time.
>Fair Trade
Maximilien switches places with the targeted ally instantly.
>Mergers and Acquisitions
Target's ammo is depleted instantly if possessing any and will instead fire one dark energy bolt before reloading.
>Hostile Takeover
Maximilien's Omnium exceeds safety parameters: increasing armor regeneration rate, manufacturing a second Venture and forces all enemies in range to reload immediately.

>Fair Trade
That sounds like an excellent way to have a character be an infuriating troll pick. Jump off a cliff and swap. Or stand next to a D.va bomb and swap.

The forced reload sounds interesting, I get killed a lot because I don't manage my ammo right and have to reload, so forcing the enemies to reload could be neat.

I really don't understand how all of you keep discussing who the next hero might be when Jeff already heavily hinted that it's this thing in the back.

Likewise you forget the big constants for next hero hints:

>always hinted at the in the reveal of a new hero (either in the trailer or if they get a comic)
>completely new character we have never seen before
>when hinted, it is mostly obscured

Jeff always said they want new heroes to be character no one has seen before because they want them to be a "surprise".
Instead of wasting your time, why not discuss who this is going to be?

I love Dr. Junkenstein, but the lack of art of him compared to Witch Mercy is disturbing.

How about no.

Still. Love the design. I wonder how he’d interact with Zen and Bastion would be like. He’d probably mock orisa and call her a dog.

so is it yoshimoto encount or akihabara encount? pls get your shit together, owc

Not gonna lie /owg/, I really fucking hate this game. I've been seriously tempted to uninstall it several times, but the waifu game is too strong.

Not to mention quitting comp since season 2, and only playing quickplay (aka genjo and Hanzo mode) and arcade the match-making is shit but I've improved a ton.

I want off this ride.

You could simply make it unable to work mid-air to solve that.
Max fulfills the requirements for a new hero that's been teased in the same way that Moira was, but admittedly he has been more front and center than her.
What don't you like?

Just stop playing the game but keep looking for porn.

I think Yoshimoto is the group that owns them.

Shiro, central character from the latest Voltron series, hunky space daddy.

The better troll move would be to swap yourself to save yourself and thus put someone else in a bad position lol

I'm giving it until the Summer games event comes around again. If it's just the same recycled stuff with a few new skins added in, I'm out. The game had such potential but it's all just wasted.

What's the chinese symbol mean that all the icons have?

thanks for clarifying, user

What could they do to save the game at this point?

>Max fulfills the requirements for a new hero that's been teased in the same way

What part of
>always hinted at the in the reveal of a new hero (either in the trailer or if they get a comic)
>completely new character we have never seen before
>when hinted, it is mostly obscured

Did you not understand? Or are you this dense? Max has been around since Doomfist. The next hero is hint in the MOST recent hero reveal, either a comic or the reveal trailer.
This has been a constant since Sombra

>Orisa's blueprints in Sombra's reveal trailer
>Orisa's entire existence lead up to Doomfist
>Moira revealed in the background of Doomfist's comic that came out with his reveal at SDCC

So the hint for the next hero is in Moira's reveal trailer and no where else.

>Quitting comp
You're almost there, user. You've figured out you need to avoid that in the pursuit of fun. Now you just need to relax and not get angry over the matches, try to have fun as your #1 priority.

Are you dense? Reanalyze what you just said about Max.

ching ching, buy more lootboxes

You need to tell me if you want actual r76 humor or just general Reaper and S76 jokes.

I don't know man. Personally I'd love to see more of the world, characters and history of everything fleshed out. I find it hard to care about anything that goes on when I don't really care about most of the characters.

I just said Max has been around since Doomfist, it's not him. Learn to read, god damn user. It has to be a character NEVER SEEN BEFORE. That's how it works because Jeff spilled the beans that this is how they do it.

Well my playtime drastically decreased at the Halloween event. Blizzard doesn't give a shit and it shows. The maps are shit, balancing is a mess and matchmaking is still fucked along with the community. I'm also (not) surprised there's still no campaign mode.

like It's pretty much all about the porn and maybe jumping on for a few games to waste time. That's the Overwatch experience right there.

In a more positive note, this game has helped me with my anger issues. I use to get so angry at this game but now I'm calm and don't give a fuck anymore. Win or lose, its all exp in the end.

new hero is going to be a chestlet, and that is good

Except that's not 100% true since were told at the beginning we'd get Athena one day and they even took steps to alter old art to make sure you know who Athena is on the original roster.

I already said Max has been more front and center than most, you seem dense and unable to read yourself.

>It has to be a character NEVER SEEN BEFORE
But we saw Moira and Armored Battlesuit-Guy, dummy.

Anyone who thinks Mei needs a buff deserves their dick chopped off and shoved into their ears

>Except that's not 100% true since were told at the beginning we'd get Athena one day
You're joking right? Who said this, Metzen?
Regardless, that changes nothing about how heroes are revealed.

>won 8/10 placements for CTF
>plat
huh?

>when hinted, it is mostly obscured
Pretty sure I said this.

fuck off, MAMA HONG WHEN

Mei is already in the game

anyone?

Yeah, I hear you brother. I've gotten into playing it again since I've got friend who I play with and neither she or I take it seriously nowadays. Before that though I would only really play when the events came around (which isn't uncommon I'm sure) to see what new stuff dropped.
>still no campaign mode.
I desperately want this but I know it'll never happen. Lore isn't fleshed out enough and they're too focused on esports.

They're not really obscured so much as low res.

>Me Ooga
>Team Booga

if you mean the one on the lootboxes it just means fortune

>still no campaign mode.
They are working on some sort of Overwatch spin-off game according to their job call outs. No clue what it'd be though.

>Overwatch Kart

Yeah Campaign may never come, but looking at Blizzards track record when it comes to "lore" and story-writing I won't be surprised if it turns out shitty. I just play for self-improvement and to have fun.

I had a friend told me recently that one of the writers said that D.va isn't actually a gamer? Guess D.va and hana song are two different people.

oh well. Hang in there, we're all gonna make it.

anyone play off-meta on purpose?

Now that Blizzard has run out of TF2 designs to plagiarize, I wonder which exciting new Japanese design they will plagiarize for the next hero?

I don't have a side in this discussion about hero 27 but here's the actual quotes on how they tease stuff.

>One of the things our fans are always curious to hear about is why we tease some heroes way earlier and why with some heroes they just kinda come out and surprise us,” game director Jeff Kaplan explained during an interview at the Fun & Serious Game Festival in Bilbao. “I think Moira was more in that ‘surprise everybody’ category
>Blizzard were aiming for more of a middle road, and were a little surprised Moira didn’t have more hype headed into BlizzCon. “We were trying to subtly hint at her: she was in the Doomfist comic, and seeing how fans had glommed onto everything back in the Sombra ARG days, they literally picked apart everything, so we thought they would pick up on that a lot more.”
>Something similar seems to be happening around hero 27. While Kaplan was tight lipped on any details, he did let on that it’s a bit of hinting, a bit of a surprise again. “Let’s just leave it at that. A surprise that has perhaps been hinted at.”

stupid idea, but cute picture

>Hang in there, we're all gonna make it.
You too man.
