fired zero bullets in the orphanage.
So far I've gotten two legendary skins - and both of them for Hanzo who I rarely use. At least the Okami skin looks badass for whenever I attempt to use him.

Okami skin also makes his ult way better since his callout is pretty much silent, lol.

They really need to fix that.

They really need to put a limit on how many people can play a character. I just played a game with a whole team of people trolling as junk rat. I was the only one taking it seriously.

I hope they eventually do. I doubt it happens though unless maybe enough people complain to them.

Lmao. No it's not.

Ok, believe what you want.
Or maybe you know better than them?
You mean all those people that didn't play TF2, Quake, Doom, Unreal Tournament? It has nothing to do with her rockets and everything that she's countered hard my people who can pick her out of the air of which there are many.

Only baddies play TF2/Doom/UT, so I'm not sure why you'd mention those games, Kappa

Everyone playing as the same character sounds like a ball - I've yet to be put in a group with that.

Kind of looking forward to ranked/competitive mode so people who are serious business have a mode to play in and I can have a six on six Reinhardt vs Reinhardt match. Someday.

Ending my day with a 35-5 and 3 golds round with Hanzo. Felt gud, breh.
Nice! I on the other hand have been having a REALLY off day. Haven't won a single match yet. Even on the cusp of winning I've managed to snatch defeat out of the jaws of victory. Hopefully my luck turns around soon.

I know that pro players like Seagull play characters like Mei and Hanzo, so I feel fairly confident in saying they're not picking the best characters, but just whatever the hell they feel like playing. Or they're making extremely situational picks.

They're human and they get bored too you know.

I can literally ask a guy from one of the teams if you don't believe me.
It's obvious that you don't have any competitive experience from anything.

On the other hand, I can't wait to have six Reinhardt matches on ranked.

Speaking of playing the same character, we all ran Torbjorn out of the gate just to troll once, and we were surprised when we were met with this, haha.

I played a game on Route 66 a few days ago where our whole team rolled Winston. It was stupidly fun.
I can only imagine the venn diagram of shields going on.

My dream is a full team of Symmetras on defense. Turrets EVERYWHERE.

Winston is a character I cannot for the life of me learn how to play strategically. On the other hand, six of them jumping around sounds like absolute madness and also ridiculously fun.

They have to be. POTG is the one feature where they really shit the bed, I think. It's basically been reduced to meme fodder, which is a ton of fun to be honest. It'd still be nice to have genuinely impressive moments highlighted where possible though.

Every potg I've gotten has been a wtf moment for me. I do like the memes that popped up, but still... Other than that havin a blast

So after playing a bunch of matches with a friend I'm certain that I want to do that more often, makes quite the difference.
Put myself on the spreadsheet (PS4) and am going to add a lot of guys on there.

Make the flashbang daze people so they can move around but not attack, and make Fan the Hammer a skill with a 10 second cooldown. Make his roll not reload his weapon but maybe shorten the cooldown a bit.

He would suck might and never get picked.
 
I got the answer from a guy who just won the game that it was the apt choice on the map, lmao
No shit Sherlock. She's a map-dependent specialist, just like a Symmetra.

Now ask him who is better, McCree or Pharah.
She seems C/B tier at least? Well she not on McCree level that for sure.
She's an absolutely solid C. She's great for certain maps and great as long as there's not a good Widow opposing her.

The game is like 200% better with friends that use mics.

also dat 20% exp boost
 
Ever stand around wondering why the randoms won't do anything?

I spectated one and witnessed the horrible truth, as a random playing McCree charged into the entire enemy team, threw a flashbang, died, switched to Reinhardt, and did the same strategy holding down the attack button.

I feel like I'd be able to counter that pretty easily. But the first few minutes of the match would be terrifying with all the jumps.
The moment it began, you could see the other team's horror and hesitation at the sight of six Winston's jumping around like madmen throwing shield after shield down. It was all us for a good few minutes. After they moved the payload, we had a tougher game. Still fun nonetheless.

Dude's insane. I just wished he would stream more, can never catch a broadcast

I wonder if anyone would try a Winston Mercy to hunt him down? Winston is really good against very aggressive teams especially with a Mercy, it depends on if he has he team help melt the Wiston I guess. That seems to be his only weakness besides D.Va when he is used correctly. Everyone just focusing on him.

I would actually save a ton of matches with him if my team was better coordinated (not randoms). Get triple kills easily, chase guys waay off the objective then leap back in to chase some more off. But if your other members continually wipe in 2 secs all you are doing is tellimg them to focus on you before easily dealing with the others.

Staring to get why people are shitting on PotGs more and more. Just had one that was Junkrat killing 3 people with his ult and the end of the clip shows me as Mercy reviving everyone and making the whole play pointless.

It should've gone to a Pharah that got a triple kill with her ult, but no, had to go to a Junkrat that had his undone literally two seconds after he did it.

No they don't.
We had 5 Bastions and 1 Mercy (we were super salty they went Mercy but in Hindsight it was good for team composition). We lost the first two objectives in quick succession but then held the third and won the game.

It was the most amount of stupid fun I have had in gaming in years. The other team didn't see the funny side though.

I just wish that it would incorporate more plays that are not ultimates. People with great aim just going on killing sprees and smartly outplaying the enemy. Those "Press Q" POTG get old real fast

I'm thinking of getting this game. Is digital the way to go? I usually get MP games digitally, but I wasn't sure if the physical box had some cool bonuses as par with Blizzard.
