Got a quad kill with Winston and was tied for most elims with Junkrat at 23. Obviously, we lost. Attacking Bastion sat on payload again. Fuck that strategy, but more importantly fuck teams who don't know how to counter it. I'm not good enough to carry a team, especially playing as support or tank. Any time I have gold medals in anything other than Objective Time and Healing, I know we're fucked.
Played a round at the Temple of Anubis the other day where the other team was rolling 5 Torbs and a Lucio(?) and we just blew right through them. I was surprised but really happy about it.
So am I bad or are Mcree and Reaper kind of ridiculous? Like Reaper I can kind of deal with but Mcrees feel downright unfair sometimes. That ult is insane. Other than that I'm loving this game on PS4. I've had a few great games so far and teamwork had been pretty solid. Junkrat and Torbjorn have been my favorites so far but im still getting a feel for all the heroes.
Yeah Mcree is getting nerfed (I think maybe sometime this week?) because his flash bang/fan the hammer combo is a bit ridiculous. Reaper is strong but not unbeatable IMO.
Ya there are ways around reaper. It's weird, after playing as him for a bit, I saw how others could pretty easily take me down and now he's not so bad to play against.
I just went straight bananas with Junkrat and it was so much fun. @Rob Hughes and @lightning13 can back me on that.
Yeah I feel like if I find myself having trouble against anyone specifically, the best way to figure out how to turn the tides is to play a couple rounds as them.
His stun is rough, but the ult isn't bad; just get behind basically any cover as soon as you hear "high noon." Sometimes you're unable to, but there's usually a couple seconds where you can find something.
I can't remember the last time I died from D.Va's ult. Also, I can never effectively deploy reaper's ult. It's useless against any tank.
I've found D.Va's and Roadhog's ult are more used to clear areas than to kill people. Won a payload match because I ulted them away at overtime as Roadhog.
Just had the most frustrating game ending ever. Playing on king's row, attacking. Switched to Junkrat and it went to OT. Put myself on a high platform to use my ult, got the quad kill but couldn't jump down to payload in time to help move it :(
I love that Twitter account so much. Thanks, my heart still hurts lol. Also seems like Hanzos gets POTG a lot
I tried using Zenyatta last night, I did okay with him, doing about 4k healing but man I suck using that discord orb with him.
Yeah that number 4&5 can be really interchangeable, I've got about 5 POTGs with Junkrat though and used him in about 70 games.
