Counter DVa with Zen discord and Zarya. She'll melt. When I'm Zen, I'll just spam primary at her or charged shots cuz she can't DM me forever. Works most of the time unless she tries to target me directly to take me out.
As a new player, I'm surprised D. Va was ever considered weak. Defense Matrix by itself would lead me to think she would always be somewhat useful.
Okay, wow, um....I can't say for sure how much Blizzard should increase her DPS if they decide to Roadhog her DM, but it should not be 50%. That's...it's unfair, yikes.
I think they'd have to lower her health too if they are going to make her a Dive tank, because she is very survivable for the power and escape she has in my playtest. (Granted, I was up against AI, but just how much damage I was putting in them, I saw how it'd work in practice)
And they need to up the actual cooldown. Because a good D.Va doesn't just spam her DM, a good D.Va uses it as select moments. As such, 2 second is PLENTY of time. I think even a 1 second DM might be good for her. Except when other characters are using ults, in which case she's no longer going to be able to counter Soldier's, roadhogs, and Pharah's ult.
This would make her a complete lone wolf character like Roadhog used to be. Other than defending against teamkilling oneshot ults, like a graviton, her protection against enemy fire would be minimal. It'd be better to use that for herself and when she goes ham on the enemy team with her power shotguns.
Honestly, trying out this gun powered, DM nerfed D.Va kind of re-enforces that she's in a really good place where she is currently right now for me. Call her DM boring or whatever, but it serves the team. If they decide to actually make D.Va a predator, she gon be scary af.
Don't listen to this thing ^
Only way to fight back a good Dva that constantly DMs your main DPS and carry members/peels very well is to go Sombra and hack her, or use Tracer+Soldier where Tracer focuses supports while Soldier has a better chance at doing damage.
Zarya Zen is a bad combo that gets shat on hard by Emp. Don't listen to console bloggers/Junkrat mains.

Still salty from last time? Maybe you should move on. It's embarrassing.
Not everyone plays Sombra well enough to be in the team comp for that strat. Most people still play Zarya and Zen.
Again, move on.
So, question about the reticle.
I see most people use green.
Does that noticably help you aim?
I don't want to switch to that color because I think it looks weird with the rest of the UI being white and blue.
If it noticably helps your aim, I might try it out, but I really don't want to. It looks sooo ugly.

Zarya/ Zen is a nightmare for me when playing DVa. And when I'm playing Zen, it's fairly easy to Discord DVa and have Zarya cook her down in seconds.
Of course I'm just a gold console scrub, but I'd guess there are more than a few people here like me, so I think the advice is appropriate.

Dva shouldn't be that far forward. She can easily disengage, and she has a bigger effect overall in the team fight than Zarya since she nullifies all damage and can pretty much shut down Tracer. Dva is really strong; she is top tier for a reason.
If someone is having trouble vs a legit Dva, you just play the meta and don't pick something dumb like Zen Zarya; you are just praying not to get countered. And you will get countered by anyone who has a brain above diamond.
Again, vs Dva you go Sombra or Tracer Soldier. More optimal picks that don't get destroyed by a single ult.
No full stack = 0-2. That's all I can handle.
Yeah games were not good, we were probably too tired, the games before were very intense for the most part.
Can someone explain the logic to me of allowing teams to talk to each other during comp?? lol
It's such a shit show.
Yea, I was expecting you guys to be tired from 6 games straight. Maybe tomorrow. I don't wanna drop back down again. If I drop, I wanna drop with a good 6 stack.

Preparing for dat' buff!I wish I could understand the Junkrat obsession in these high plat/low diamond games on PC. Instalock in every single game, ugh.
Wise move. I dropped from 2750 to 2300, due to teams bickering, performing dumb stunts, and such, so I'm staying away from competitive until I can find a six-stack team that I can work with.
You mean text chat?
Yea, lol. My favorites are the people who argue all during the match instead of playing.
I think I would've reached Diamond tonight if I was able to join the stack. Frustrated I missed the boat. FeelsBadMan
I don't understand people, I get picked in OT after doing great all match and this guy just starts shit talking me, which fine, whatever. That game still ends in a draw, the pick didn't result in any loss. We of course get matched on the same team next game and he shit talks me all game despite me not responding, and refuses to heal me. We still win some how. People are fucking lame.
I think Route 66 is my favorite map. I always play really well there and rarely lose.
Anyone else prefer this map?
I do really well there, and the color palette always makes me happy. I do really well on Volskaya, too, but the color palette there makes me want to jump into the icy river.
They need more night time maps. Night time Hollywood was quite nice looking.

Which why I find it to be a bummer the time variant maps are stuck with CTF. The sunset in Ilios is very inviting, and Nepal at night is very cool.
You know, it was, which is weird since I love the color scheme of normal Hollywood so much. See also: Eichenwald during Halloween.
I despise King's Row's colors, but thought the Anniversary event there looked warm and inviting.
Colors are weird.
Yea, is it really that hard to make nighttime versions of existing maps? Just release a non-Halloween one for Hollywood.
Don't remind be about the Uprising event. Since the game doesn't have a permanent Player VS. Horde mode, it makes me sad.
Hanamura at night looked awesome in the Dragon's short, so I'm surprised they haven't released that one yet.
Back down cyber.You are starting to sound like my ex.
It has good contrast with nearly all maps.

Different time of days would def give the illusion of variety so we're not looking at the same few maps over and over. It's quite puzzling considering how long it takes to release a new map.
