Getting carried does help :P

I'm experiencing a bit of a tank and support shortage tonight, but I just played a nice round on Illios with double monkey and double Lucio. That was pretty good. Double Winston is pretty great at harassing a point.

I was terrible at monkey up until this weekend where I found my inner monkey and started knocking people around. Man he is good.

Uh.. where is the parts list? Want.

I think the most annoying kind of Overwatch player is the guy who has to evaluate everyone's hero pick. Composition is important, but no one has an expert level handle on the meta in quickplay. I've been told that I'm not allowed to play D.Va on defense, or Tracer on payload maps. That's a crock of shit.

And it's quickplay FFS. I'm a tryhard but I have my limits.

I think you run into more and more toxic players the more your MMR increases.

I can never tell if Mei players are trolling or just terrible.

Nah, Ice Wall is definitely one of the Mei abilities that gets misused more than anything
Granted she probably didn't have the awareness that McCree could stun there or not

Often I find other Mei's block your team from pushing or some other form of counter to your team's goal
It's a real situational tool that she shouldn't have to use TOO often

You misunderstand. Mei is the griefer's favorite, but it's impossible to tell the difference between griefing and terrible (typical) Mei players.

Some Mei players are definitely griefing.

Pretty sure rayy meme'd that previously already :P

I've never picked up on Mei griefers. In fact I haven't seen much griefing whatsoever to this point! Which is surprising really
Well other than the obvious all Torbjorn teams etc :)

Yeah I was surprised they didn't have some sort of toy launch to coincide with that

Roadhog is amazing. I am now a hooker.

My damage output with Roadhog doesn't seem to match the massive kills he gets.

I can't wait to get the shark skin.

If you're good with the hooks, he's a killing machine. Not really a tank so much as a big fat assassin.

There's not much you can do in this game that's more satisfying than hooking a bastion in turret form and pulling him out of it and 1 shotting him. One of lifes truest pleasures.

I find Roadhog is amazing at flanking. Pop in form the side, get a hook, get a kill, dodge around the corner to heal while the hook goes off CD, then rince and repeat.

Roadhog is also very good at hooking Pharah's from the sky.

Man I played a Roadhog who had Zenyatta and Symmetra for teammates and it was fucking brutal all those boosts on top of his self heal

I really wish you could interrupt his healing drink in a situation like that

Wouldn't McCreasy peasy lemon squeezy do the trick? Or some hot Hog v Hog action?

I think that's pretty shitty, but they're mostly immune to criticism so it will be okay.

Gamers are the worst consumers, but Overwatch is popular enough to shake it off with a smile.

Blizzard is discussing nerfs and buffs with people on the Battle.net forum, and I'm a little worried. You never know exactly how developers are going to react to player feedback. They're getting a lot of conflicting feedback right now. They are getting a lot of data now too. I want to see a light hand with this sorta stuff in the early days of the game. They did have a long beta after all.

Not that the game is perfect. Far from it. They just need to tread carefully.

As far as nerfing and buffing what do you think so far? What would you change?

They've stated in the past a lot of the team actively plays the game to inform changes too. Not to mention they're already able to see competitive matches play out


I'm curious to see how they view stacking more than anything I guess. Is there a stacking scenario where it's too potent? I feel like that's an area maybe they didn't account for
Both character stacking and shield/damage stacking

What characters aren't really being played right now I guess? Could they make some of the less popular characters more viable to others


I wonder how they view some of the healers. Should they be a bit more deadly?
Mercy's might as well not have a pistol and Lucio's gun is a great rapid fire but it lacks punch.
I know it's a trade off for their healing/buff abilities.
That's just grasping at straws though. Otherwise I don't know that I see anything that stands out as being OP
