I don't remember seeing the cover art yet. I preordered it way back when they announced it and the artbook though. Coming out tomorrow, neat!

Edit: Dang, only getting it for $12 too, huh.
 
Wraxu is a fucking beast tho, lol. I know youre just being sarcastic but dude is a monster. Ive seen him on Hog and Lucio and he beasts as well. Like he isnt just a Hanzo OTP.

He literally carries every other game lol

He's really fun to watch. Recently I got lucky when I decided to watch his stream and saw two games that were pretty cool

https://go.twitch.tv/videos/180483825?t=07h57m30s - 89 kills, ending is intense af

https://go.twitch.tv/videos/180179133?t=02h41m30s - against Effect from envy, his hanzo vs tracer duels were pretty great

So Mercy getting nerfed tomorrow? Back to being pretty crap then.

No, not anytime soon.

I'll miss the guardian angel acceleration, but she needs to be adjusted. Her ultimate is still going to be strong given the healing and damage potential. I'll be glad to finally stop playing hunt the Mercy for a while.

Can someone explain what was changed to Mercy's Guardian Angel ability that Blizzard removed in PTR??
I never nothiced any change. :/

Honestly the fewer rezzes the better. It’ll make life hell for mercy mains because OMG REZZ ME but will make the games quicker and less frustrating.

Wraxu's Lucio is pretty mediocre, but at least he tries to fill. He's seriously good at Ana, though.
 
So I have the day off work today and spent about 3 hours in FFAs losing over and over again. I told myself this was the last game because my brain was getting so worn out from all the adrenaline I kept feeding it. Somehow... this happened:

I had pretty much given up at the end. I choked what could have been my last two kills, and spawned on the opposite side of the map. I figured it was over. Then I got a free Doomfist kill and went blind rage mode on that Genji at the end.

2 remain: Widow and Lucio

In competitive Overwatch, we have never seen a hero with a near 100% pick rate across every tier - until now. Patch 1.15 was a big patch for Mercy - giving a huge boost to her Resurrect ability and pushing her to a consensus must-pick in the current meta. Support and Tank play have changed the most in the past two weeks, as D.Va's major changes also have shifted her role a bit as a tank, and staples Reinhardt/Roadhog coming back into the meta. As always I hope you enjoy this report!

olololololololololololololol

Looks like Roadhog is the new D.Va. Old fans swear they are garbage even as they climb back up the win rate tier (Yes I know this is post buff, but I'm pretty sure this wasn't the desired buff lol)

Let me tell you, when you see a killcam of yourself dying as Doomfist and you see YOURSELF going through the opponent and not hitting

its enough to want to uninstall
 
So I played 8 player FFA today for the first time, and I realized I kinda suck at it. I can't seem to get in the top 4 unless I play junkrat. Though one game was really close, and as mccree I ended up 5th with 17 kills.
 
It's bullshit to be given grief for picking any support (symm excluded) other than Mercy, but this is the world we live in.

Remove the concept of resurrect from the game at this point. I'm sick of it.

Oh shit boys! Apparently they were having a buy one get one special today:

What's funny is I stopped trying during this match a little less than halfway through.

I'm used to being told the opposite. I could feel the eye-roll when I picked Mercy before this patch.

It's been great so far. Not because Mercy is stronger than before, but because of the people that complained about old Mercy screwing up their DPS game and the no-skill-let's-nerf-her-rez-to-get-rid-of-her comments in retrospect as those same people experience what they couldn't realize from the patch notes.

Dislike Mercy being the flavor of the month right now, though. Harder to play as her when everyone's in the wagon. On the plus side, my Ana game is improving.
 
It's weird, I've been playing support so much these days that I rarely get a chance to play tank or dps. Playing on QP, decided to see how my tank/dps play goes and my Rein and Pharah is still good. But for some reason my 76 went down but my McCree and Widow are doing way better. Actually for some reason my tracking and flicks are way better than before. Maybe having not playing dps for awhile reset my old aiming habits.
 
Honestly the fewer rezzes the better. It’ll make life hell for mercy mains because OMG REZZ ME but will make the games quicker and less frustrating.

Personally, I feel like the Rez mechanic needs to be revisited.

I'd much rather have a Rez work like a buff you put on a player and the moment they die, they instantly come back up with full health. Give the player a little halo effect or something so the enemy team can see who has the insta rez on them.

Rez simply needs to go. It's a shit mechanic. There is a reason why it's not in DOTA either, since this game is trying to be DOTA lite
