Okay, what the fuck? Just played 6 ranked games and lost them all, almost entirely due to shoddy team comp. One had Ana, Mercy, Rein, Mei, Hanzo on attack. What am I supposed to do with that? Every one we just got stomped, and I was getting at least 2 or 3 golds. Lost 200 ranking points. Fucks sake.
Had one competitive match earlier where one of our party members didn't even play...he just ran off to the side and shot at a wall the whole match. I was furious.
Feel your pain brother. I say just stick to qp for now since alot of good comp players are working on collecting Halloween things right now. Like me.
Tracer is my second most played (I peaked at 3030 SR this season), I think the one thing that surprisingly helped me the most was changing her reticle to a small crosshairs with no bloom. When the reticle blooms, I find that it kinda tricks you into thinking that any shots within the bloom are good/landing, which is misleading. You want to make sure the majority of your shots are going right in the center of the crosshairs. Tracer has a very short range of effectiveness for her pistols, and very little health. This means you need to get in close to do your damage but also make sure that they can't hit you, even the littlest hits will look like chunks of your health were taken out - this is where your blinks come in. Make sure that you've always got 1 charge in case someone uses an ult or a stray rocket comes right for you, especially if your recall is on cooldown. Use the cool down as an undo button if someone hits your for like 60+ health, you really can't afford to be dancing around at low health since a flick will kill you. Memorize where the health packs are on each map, you're going to be using them more often than you realize - don't rely on your healer.
I love that Blizz has embraced the personalities and quirks that we as a community have grafted onto certain characters. Soldier 76 is a grumpy dad, Rein the grandpa, Reaper the edgelord, Mercy the underpaid babysitter/mom, etc. I'm glad theyve played up those funny little stereotypes we've placed on certain characters, instead of being insulted by them. Btw, have any of yall seen the fan made heroes that some people have come up with? Some of them are brilliant, like Zameen. 15 Overwatch Fan Characters That Deserve to Be Canon
Absolutely love all of those. Would def wanna play as Rose. I look forward to Overwatch having a much larger roster.
Rose looks like something out of Steven Universe, shes badass. yeah theres so many potential character ideas just based on the trailers and what we know of the lore. I cant wait until the roster grows to like, 50 heroes or something. So many choices.
i hope blizz has learned a lesson with Sombra because this has been way too long and not much fun. Heres hoping Doomfist is much better implemented
is there like a go-to site for Overwatch that has guides and tiers and counters and all that jazz? Sort of like Icyveins if you will.
I'm getting duplicate tombstones now haha. The only Halloween skins I don't have are for Ana, Bastion, Hanzo, Phara, Soldier 76, and Zenyatta, and I don't even use the first three, so.
just had 5 successful games in a row as Zarya. Maybe I should go back to maining her. Shes so much fun and so useful.
