It really ain't that hard, just make sure you have all your turrets up and don't wander too far off.
On most maps there's at least one side entrance to a point, if you set up shop there you will block the enemy team from flanking and the rest of your team can finish off the enemies wanting to enter through the main entrance.
Also make sure every teammember has a Shield, they only need to be refreshed after death.
And when you can put up the teleporter make sure it's not out in the open or at too obvious places.
Most fun hero imo.
Yeah, she can only really compete with turrets if she can out-range them which isn't an option for many spots in the different maps.
People don't often vote for D.Va or Winston in my experience. Reinhardt/Mercy/Lucio should get votes though.

not true at all she can kill turrets only taking about 40-50 dmg 95% of the time
I use phara to counter turrets and bastion
Bleh. I can get not wanting to vote for D.Va, but Winston should get more respect.

Just peek a corner, fire, repeat til turret is dead. You barely take any damage and it dies in 3 hits.

I think if you get 5 (epic) you get an XP Bonus, which increases if you get 10 (legendary).
Edit : After a google it appear as though I was told wrong. This does not appear to be the case, although it would not be a bad idea!
Trying to estimate the range is super hard because damn do they have long range.
Sign me up too, I tried one game and fucking gave up because I felt embarassed how bad I was.
I didn't even bother trying Zenyatta either lol.
I'm currently learning/trying to be competent with Genji and Hanzo but failing both. Hanzo is a little easier.

Honestly the thing I hate about McCree is that I don't feel any character should be an auto win in a 1v1 matchup and with his flashbang he definitely feels that way.
During the beta, yeah.

Fuck mccree and his bullshit, seriously.

I think reducing the radius of effect of his flashbang would help with this. I've been practising hitting them directly with it, in anticipation. Haha.
Edit: Woah the hate is strong for him. Odd, whenever I verse him I feel as though I do not have any issues. Playing him though, you can definitely dominate.

how you see a lineup like that and don't insta-lock Pharah is beyond me.
Great night with the GAF discord crew. We had a really great comeback tonight.

Zenyatta does not need a buff. He can tear people up with orbs VERY fast.
I haven't had a problem with his healing speed, especially since it works as long as you keep line of sight, and even then it works for a few seconds after. You don't even need to be actively targeting someone or sticking close like Mercy.
Blizzard's site says the POTG occasionally fudges up. But the only time it's ever really been bad was a Widowmaker who seemed to miss, the screen jerked, and suddenly about 3 or 4 people were reported as dying.

I had a game tonight on factory and the defenders pulled the usual mei/torb/bastion clusterfuck in the last room, we brought in a couple dvas to counter but they respawned too fast. I swapped to widowmaker and went up the left side and destroyed the turrets and Mei everytime the fucker showed her face, we were able to get a break and cap it finally in what felt like a 10min long overtime lol
She can be great in the right moments, but sadly most times people either use her as a machine gunner or fall asleep in a tower.
Is there a trick to it? I usually go to her when we need a tank only because I think she is one of the easiest to play other than Reaper.

If they are Dutch, upright and breathing they are more racist than your favorite player
Set up walls with Mei, get a sniper, Reinhart and a Reaper and youre good to go. Every setup has a counter.
you sound like me when I say im the best Hanzo in EU... except Im joking and im not sure you are
Disgraceful. Please remove D.Va as your avatar.

I don't k know if it's just my luck but if you want to win capture point maps I damn near win almost all the time with d.va. Something about hitting them at the back causes most pubs to scatter.

It's just aggravating because I can get good at dodging alot of stuff in this game, like Roadhogs chain, but with McCree it doesn't matter. You can dodge in anticipation all you want but it'll still hit you because it doesn't require you to actually hit the opponent, just near them, and then gives them a free kill as a reward.

You can't always play her as a straight up tank.
Usually she can stand the ground with a Reinhardt shield.
Otherwise you gotta flank, try to take our turrets, or fuck up the snipers. At a distance she's great for wearing down an opposite Reinhardt's shield since she has unlimited ammo. She can also take out Bastions if she gets the jump on them.
Her shield also provides great relief for you and crew when you need it, as well as scoping out an area quickly. Here dash should be used if you know you're going to lose the fight, so you an get out of there.
Using her Ult has it's advantages as well. Sometimes you can get a good one off if you surprise them like so: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WIUZMsYQCEg&feature=youtu.be
Other times it's great to just clear out the area, as the enemy team will leave the area or capture to hide from it.
Then, when shes out of the suit shes got a tough little gun and agility to keep people distracted, or some times take out the person who wiped your mech, or someone else.

Honestly, the main reason I hate McCree is that he's the one character in the game that it feels like you don't really fight or get engaged in an encounter with. You either kill him immediately or he kills you. It's especially shitty when you're actively fighting the enemy team only for a McCree to come up on your side, flashbang you, and blow your entire health bar away while your character stands there like an idiot.
While his nerfs will come to bring him down a little bit competitively, I bet they are going to be a little harder than competitively necessary just because he's spectacularly unfun to be on the receiving end of right now.

I think most people just hate his awful flash bang.
Thanks; I guess I've been playing her fairly correctly then, flanking and then dropping back when she is out of the mech. I haven't really paid much attention to it, but does the damage matrix only block damage from where you're looking, and does it block all types of projectiles?
Well, that's what is good for Tracers, I mean, and if its hitbox is made too small against Tracers it'd be unfortunate. Who else is as good against Tracers?
Perhaps! But most people want to nerf the flashbang, sounds like.
