Hopefully I can get Overwatch soon, I never played Team Fortress 2 and I heard it's like that so it's gonna be all new to me.

Lucio, junkrat, roadhog, pharah, d.va, mercy

I've gone to mostly playing Junkrat because I like the bouncy bombs, but I can never seem to not suck with him and it's possibly hurting my win rate.

I seem to win more when I play d.va, in part because of the huge plays I can make with her ult

It's more of a mixture of every shooter type ever. You'll find a character you find familiar

With junkrat try to pick high spots where they don't have a direct line of site to you. You're essentially a mortar and the goal is just suppressive fire with the hopes that you can connect with as much as possible.
Your explosive can help you jump up somewhere high and use your trap to protect any ways people could get to you. When you get your ult either try to drop it on top of them or have it come at them from the side or back.

I got my Tracer victory pose and highlight intro so I'm content with doing one level's worth of Overwatch matches per day.

Person of Interest is so good

Omg

I'd like to watch it but five seasons of like 22 episodes. Ain't nobody got time for that when it comes to binge watching.

That's why I tend to gravitate to cable shows. Apart from them almost universally being higher quality, they are also masters of brevity and don't have bloated seasons like network shows.

I still have to watch The Lobster (not a show but I was asked to), Bloodlines, and Preacher.

It's a solid show tho, season one is a little bit of the case of the week style but I hear it gets infinitely better with each season. Like I have yet to find an episode that has bored me.

oh also I got a legendary widowmaker skin from a loot box the other day.

I've never played as widowmaker!

latest

this one
 

Ceallach

Smells like fresh rosebuds
I don't know why I have a weird affinity for gross fan service stuff. I like that and like I live Blood Rayne and Onechanbara and Queens Blade and stuff.

nevermind

anyway, is widowmaker worth a damn?

when is she useful?

How useful she is depends on how good you are with a sniper. If you're decent at headshots she's absolutely lethal on any defense position. If you can't play sniper at all then she's mediocre. If you want specifics, she's ideal for shooting Pharah out of the sky and cancelling stationary/slow moving ultras like Reaper's, McCree's, and Pharah's.

Her downside is that she's squishy and if you stay in one spot for too long you'll get flanked and murdered, or sniped by another Widowmaker.

yes. when you're good with her she's insane


she's more of a defense sniper unlike hanzo who is more of an offense one(though both can be used for either of course). she's very good at controlling the point style maps but only those that have enough distance for her to snipe from. the main thing with her is to focus on anything she can kill in one shot which means everyone who isn't a tank basically. oh and also she's a good anti bastion. keep out of his sight then shoot him a couple times while he's in turret mode and he's done

Bastion alternates between being OP and being useless depending on how coordinated you are at taking him out. He deals out a lot of damage by he's weak as hell. Pharah and Tracer have mobility advantages on him.

pharah also has range and splash damage that helps a lot. if i'm trying to take out a bastion i usually go pharah
 
I'm training a new employee at the print shop and she's basically me from two years ago. She even has fan art of Shovel Knight and Jak and Daxter on her tumblr page. This is so wizard.

I was scrambling through the recesses of my subconscious to recall where I have heard that phrase before. As it turns out, I blocked it out. Upon further research and according to google dot com it came from Star Wars Episode I The Phantom Menace.

Please tell me you were being ironic with this and that it's not something you employ in everyday language.

a bastion shielded by reinhardt is the cheapest thing I've probably ever seen in a video game

I can deal with that when they're stationary since you can take the time to break down his shield with junkrat or pharah but when they're on the payload its difficult. i try to either take them down with an ult or bounce the reinhardt off with lucio, pharah, roadhog, etc
 
oh snap! does she have colored hair as well?

She has super long, beautiful orange (red) hair. It's a song of fire and ice.

Haha. I don't think I normally use it. If I do I'm sorry, was just trying to be funny.

Living for Margaery in this episode of Game of Thrones.

You've come over to the right side.

What did the paper mean again? I completely forgot if I ever knew.

Tracer's great for harassing Reinhardt because you can blink behind him and force him to turn towards you to shield his back and then your teammates can flank him.
