Dva seems really good but manageable.
I've only played one game of Soldier so far, but I couldn't believe how good he felt.

1v1 and 3v3 are a lot of fun. Sort of crazy how lopsided some of the games have been.
Also Winston vs Winston is the woooorst

I actually like Winston vs Winston. It's all about landing the jumps with him.

I just can't understand the reaction to S76 buff. 17 to 20 means you need 10 body shots instead of 12 and 5 headshots instead of 6 to kill a 200hp character. Is THAT big of a deal looking at how fast he fires? I used S76 a lot and I really liked him before, and I just don't understand why people think this is such a drastic change.
I played a bit now, and I just want to say two things:
- Sombra is awesome
- I don't touch the ground anymore as Pharah
Don't know if it's just a "practice range" thing, but your rockets still cause the knockback effect. Maybe I misunderstood what they meant on the patch notes.

She was borderline useless before the last patch so it was kind of needed. Even with good accuracy it was difficult to park yourself and land a charged shot to the head with how speedy and chaotic the game is. This lets her actually be playable without having her delete squishy heroes by shooting their body. Before, there was no reason to really pick her over another hitscan hero.
That 3 extra damage turns into 6 extra damage on crit and makes drop off hurt a lot less. It's a massive difference. TTK, less bullets, more damage on modifiers, etc.

I told everyone S76 buffs were gonna be good if they stuck.

3 more damage per shot is massive for him. A full clip goes from 425 to 500 damage which means his Ult is much more powerful now. His burst fire is now 60-80 damage with body shots or higher if you mix in head shots. He's just a lot more dangerous in general. He can melt tanks pretty very nicely at mid-range now too, lol.

Pharah actually seems alright on console. But with this new Soldier I don't think it will matter.

Now that I finally have a chance to play Sombra without a 100% instalock on QP (it's like 95% instalock) I can finally get a feel for her.
So far I like her on defense. Healthpack denial is absurdly powerful in allowing a defending team hold ground

Just finished my 15 HoTS game. The games were really quick but damn it felt so boring lol.

I like the season three animated spray way more than the others.
Volskaya looks good in spray form.

My first full game as Sombra, went 17-0 and hacked a POTG. It was actually mystery heroes, but I didn't die so I was her the whole game.

That moment when you're sombra, decloaking behind all the supports, only to get sniped by the enemy WM which just spawned...

New Soldier feels nice. I can kill with him now. I think might as good as McCree now, tbh.

Re: Soldier 76:
His problem before was that he was just shy of confirming kills too often. If people are complaining about him being too strong, it's because the extra damage is enough to get him over that threshold. But I imagine the real issue is that since the game was out you had a feel for what situations you were safe going toe-to-toe with a Soldier and what situations you weren't, and now this has upended that. Your game sense is all off, you're losing fights you wouldn't have before, ergo Solider feels overpowered.

Has anyone been getting tons of "Your rendering device has been lost" errors and then the game crashes since the patches?
I didn't even get these during the PTR.

Lol yeah. This definitely shows when trying to get to the last point on Route 66. Not fun at all. Starting to wonder if allowing Sombra to re-hack over opponent Sombra's hacked medkits wouldn't be such a bad idea.
Were you just in a game on Volskaya? (genji)
I wonder how the original maps will play when we have 30+ heroes. Maybe they'll update those.

I think Sombras 75 credit white black and red skin is my favorite. That's a first.
HOT TAKE: Sombra's Legendaries are trash.

Two are awful. One is bad, one is pretty good. The epics are 'meh' as well.
Yeah, I think you should be able to rehack medkits or take away that ability. It might be a little too OP as is.
