i've played widowmaker more than any other character and my winrate with her in quick play is only 46% so i haven't tried her in competitive LOL
If Blizzard was able to do PTR - a few days later PC patch - 4-7 days later console patch I would be happy. Smite does it where PTR starts when new stuff is announced and then it goes live a few days later and two weeks later it goes to console usually.
I am so bad with Widowmaker hahaha. My second highest to D. Va is Lucio but it's so boring playing as him sometimes :/
I had a truly boring KOTH match as Lucio (who I love playing as) where the other team was like deathly allergic to the points or something because like they never showed up. they did once, then never again. A teammate and I literally sat on the point and just stared at each other. Occasionally another teammate of ours would wander past and my random teammate and I would just wave/say hello. Then we won. It was odd and awesome at the same time.
Can't wait for these buffs and new character to hit console. D.Va/Zarya/Ana combos could be deadly if communicated right.
Is there a chance that if they don't eliminate stacking altogether in competitive they at least make it an option to have rooms that allow it and rooms that don't?
Yeah my top played heroes now are Lucio (by far), Winston, and Zarya. Followed behind are Sym, Dva, and Zen. But after this patch I feel like Zen and Dva are gonna get close to my Winston time. They are soooo much better with the buffs. I'm not doing PTR anymore til the patch, so I'll just keep messing around with offensive and defensive heroes on the regular servers for now. Being a tank or healer almost every game does get very tiresome.
New strategy I just saw in competitve that I know I will hate forever. Defense team on Temple Of Anubis has a Torbjorn on the first ledge with a Reinhardt blocking it. That's a usual strategy. The way to get around it was blocked off with 3 Symmetra turrets so that sucked. They proceeded to have a Bastion in turret mode in the right side little hole where a health pack with a Reinhardt blocking it and 3 more Symettra turrets in there. We couldn't do anything at all. We had me(Reinhardt), Mercy, Pharah, Reaper, Roadhog. The worst part is after a few minutes one of my teammates left and that was frustrating.

They don't mention that now, when you hit the basketballs on the KOTH maps, they don't bounce as high. I'm genuinely upset about this.
I'm baaack. Won three in a row and got Firefighter Mei legendary skin in my first loot box after my break. Buffed D.Va and Zenyatta feel really nice. People keep hogging Ana, though...
Overwatch match making system is so bad. We had one rank 59 but also a 43 and 46 and 45 so it made us even despite the fact everyone on the other team was around 51-52. We are getting destroyed.
I feel like @Richter915 mentioned before that the skill up/downs feel more even now and I agree? I won a good match and ranked up almost a whole rank and then I lost a huge blowout and only ranked down a little? I like it
