Overwatch (Blizzard, 2016) Video Game • Page 201

I think the further up my group gets, I'll be able to tweak how I play with some characters and improve a bit. I hardly feel like I'm playing at plat level, except with Lucio and mayyyyybe Zen and Mercy. PvP has never been my thing, so I'm honestly blown away that I even made it to plat haha.

 

I'm watching the World Cup and this player on the Japan team named AKTM is playing out of their mind on McCree.

 

I feel like I've been playing some of the best I've played lately on Winston. Hopefully I'll hit plat before the season is over. But also Splatoon just came out so we'll see about that haha

 

t mobile must be paying a ton for the constant plug that these announcers are doing during the World Cup.

 

Japan is a lot of fun to watch.

 

Nice! I'm headed the opposite...almost at silver ugh

 

When did D Va jump back into the meta?

Did the dive comp just make her a necessary?

 

Well with Rein out of favor, her defense matrix and move ability makes her pretty solid alongside Winston.

 

Japan just brought out the Zarya and I'm so happy right now.

 

Japan brought out a Zarya/Ana/Reaper comp and everyone was freaking out.

They just ripped through Finland and I'm like does everyone not remember how insane this comp was like two seasons ago?

 

Currently on one of the fabled 5 DPS teams, gone Lucio. Currently on gold Elims, Objective Kills, Healing and Damage Done.

Fucking hell.

Edit: finished the game (Illios) with those 4 gold medals. That was on a team of Soldier, Pharah, Junkrat, Genji and Reaper. Fuck me.

 

Haha I've had games like that as Lucio. Came so close to losing my cool and just shouting "WHAT ARE YOU ALL ACTUALLY DOING!?"

 

It became super clear after the first round that we were going to get destroyed and that there was very little I could do. Fucking hate solo queuing for that reason. I don't mind losing to a better side, but when people quit or refuse to pick a workable team, it takes the fun out of trying to climb.

I'm not trying to make excuses. I belong where I belong I guess. But when you can go one game and absolutely smash it, then the next and lose and someone quits after 2 minutes, it's just not fun.

 

Yeah I'm a little stuck at the moment myself. I keep knocking at the door of platinum (my season high is 2499...) and then proceed to lose a run of games and have to spend another few days grinding to get back up. I nearly gave up on the season entirely when I lost 50 SR last weekend for a disconnect during hero select in a game that would've guaranteed promotion (it also didn't help it was Ilios and that map is heaven for me as a Winston main).

Then again, the enjoyment I get from being in a team that really gels is hard to beat. I really can't see me putting down the game any time soon. Platinum is an inevitability in my eyes and I just have to enjoy the games on my path to getting there and not get so down about the losses.

 

Yeah my season high is about the same (2476 or something I think). Reached there or there abouts a couple of times, then just as I do, I go on a losing streak all the way back down to 2000-2100. I'm currently sitting about 2245. I'm really thankful for the arcade modes recently, provide a nice little disconnect for me when I'm getting jaded from comp.

 

I kind of took a short break from comp, been mostly playing QP and arcade with friends. I really haven't had many issues overall with comp, except some small issues here and there, I just don't like soloqueuing since I'm too quiet to get on the mic without at least one friend on my team, haha.

South Korea is trying to kill the dive meta

good people

 

Battlenet never works on my phone for some reason. It always gives me an error saying it's redirecting me too many times

 

CHANGE ESPORTS FOREVER OVERWATCH

 

Playing doomfist elimination is so hit and miss

 

Man, I suck so bad with him haha! I just can't get the combos together, then he's almost useless with everything on cooldown.

 

I sorta get it now: charge, uppercut, slam but have to make sure the charge lands

 

i am only here for the zarya and reinhardt buffs
