You clearly did not test, i'm in training mode right now with pharah, the bots have 200, literally aiming at their head will not one shot them, you dont score critical hits (you would know if you did because the retical turns into a red x instead of white x on crit hits)
as you can slightly see here, it's a white x on a headshot with pharah

Pugs = WoW and MMOs (Pick up groups)
Pubs = TF2 and other games with private servers (Pubs is short for public server players)

Pub comes from "public server". Generally means playing with randoms now.
Genji can't deflect Mei's icy blasts

Public server. Been around for a long, long time.
Man, I feel so bad for the team currently assigned to the official boards over at Blizzard.
Overwatch is so positive, so fun and the clear product of a lot of love. But in the face of all that it's nothing but over zealous, hideous complaints and insults to the dev team and each other. Cries of imbalance, bad design, favoritism, the list goes on.
I just hope these guys have been in the rodeo long enough to eke the useful info out of all the poisonous nonsense and hold fast to whatever values led them to Overwatch as it is today. It's a hell of a game that is only victim to this much noise because it's such high quality.

Well usually in FPS setting a pug is a setting where you have enough people for two teams, you pick two captains, and captains pick teammates til the roster is full then play each other. We could get some pugs going for gaf, there are definitely enough, if people are interested in that sort of thing.
It's usually for people who are more interested in the competitive side of FPS. Custom games with higher tickrate could be spoiling though.

He can deflect it, before the arrow becomes the dragon, would be too imbalanced if he could deflect the dragon itself.
play who you like.

Practice.

Keep playing her?

He can. Well, not reflect it but destroy it. Apparently you have to quickly slice the arrow right after Hanzo shoots it.

Try Hanzo? Less aim required.

Finding more and more teams playing with duplicate characters. Some more balanced like 2 McCree and 2 Torg, but also played against teams with 5 Torg (Turrets galore) and 1 Junkrat or Bastions. It didn't always ended with losses but it's not fun to play for me.
Before they nerf something they should really create another playlist which disables duplicate characters because some issues could be caused by the duplicates or the alternative would be shared abilities between players using the same characters. Pick 5 Torg but only have 1 turret enabled at any given time.
There are 21 characters to play, no reason to allow duplicates...

she'll like it more if you keep playing with her until you get better
This attitude is why I like this game. Good job community.
Comps like Double Archie, Double Toblerone, Double Scientist, and Double Lucio are probably going to be around for a while. Tournaments might see a unique hero mode, but I hear there's a lot of contention about that even.
I don't think they'll change it for ranked, and I'd be absolutely gobsmacked if they did it for Quick-play.
I'd be cool with another mode, but I don't know if that's a priority for Blizz...
practice and adjust sensitivity to your liking. i had 1 great game in the first couple days of playing but lately i've been pretty bad with her. think i need to lower her and McCree's sensitivity more.

Seems old? When he deflects the arrow he gets the dragon on his side. Plus bastion with his shield is really old.

Sure, he's not outrunning a stun at that range though.
No shit it isn't TDM lol. Also had gold medal in objective time, and kills. Not much more I can do as a tank.
Thank you based god ;-;

How do you make changes that alter this combo is a way that only affects the Tanks survavility While keeping his effectiness against pestilences such as Mei, Tracer and Genji?
Good luck Blizzard
Like I said in that thread, there is a fine line between being useful and being a character nobody plays.
He has no speed, teleport or anything like Reaper.
He is pretty much dead if you stay outside of middle range.
They should focus more on not letting multiples on a team, because once you open the Pandora's Box of nerfing there is no stopping.
If you ever played WoW, then you would know that, of any company on the planet, Blizzard is the most used to dealing with this sort of nonsense. The whining in WoW is legendary. I've always thought Blizz did a pretty good job of toeing the line between listening to the fanbase and doing what is best for the game.

I should be able to one-shot Mei as Roadhog. Why can't I one-shot her? Why must she freeze me after I hook her? Why must she torment me?
there's no reason to play several characters now in certain maps/situation
The cold shoulder, it stings
This happens in so many games. One change takes a character's use rate to 0.
I mean, look at her outfit. It's super padded

Usually these characters are poorly designed in the first place, if they were meant to be competitive. Like mei can never be competitive, second she is, she'll be nerfed.

You mean when they show you the kill screen replays?

I agree. One step over the edge and he'll be unplayed.
My suggestion for any changes would be to add a horizontal spread to the Fan, so you have to really be up close to 100% land all hits.
Adjusting his damage is going to be too much.
