It's very easy to forget. And then you're just annoyed.
I know that feeling... had 5 min 27 sec of objective time, the only one making a push on the payload the whole game.... but all the votes go to the soldier 76 and his 16 eliminations.

can't you just kill him outright? i've tried to duel junkrats as S76 but mine + M1 bursts me down really quick.
Yeah I think he needs a bit of tweeking, I really dont like his panic traps where he can throw a trap on you, it's happened tons of times on me as Winston rampaging or when he is losinga battle, I come up to knock him away, he throws the trap on me I waste my super, though its fair play if I just land on it, but requiring no set up at all for the reward of wasting supers? WTF were they thinking?
rofl I just went against a whole team of soldier 76's, I was the only defense hero as Rein and I got 25k blocked damage(we won barely) and only got 1 upvote. It's a pointless system that needs to go.

No, they're not. Do you think I'm honestly going to shift to an enemy that is already under pressure when I'm dragging another enemy with me? That's plain stupid. I'm talking about your average McCree or Genji running around slightly away from the main fights. It's my duty to keep absolutely everyone alive though every single encounter which requires a hell of a lot of micromangement, in return I think it's fair to expect that you make sure I'm not left to the wolves.
And Mercy's peashooter is beyond useless, any player of the same skill level should be absolutely ashamed of themselves if they die to a weakened Mercy desperately bunny hopping around. I'm not going to pull that out unless I have nobody else to shift to.

It needs an activation timer (trap). I agree.

You guys really need to do let potg or the upvotes get to you. It's pretty much meaningless.

Leave Junkrat alone, you bullies.
So is ranking and people still care about it. I like getting POTGs.

Yesterday my team and I kept giving votes to the other team so they wouldn't ragequit.

They're fun but to the point of getting annoyed by it and thinking they need to get rid of it? Not worth being bothered by it.
It'd probably be the 3rd OT then lol
Man, that bottomless pit is getting a lot of use, eh? Maybe I should utilize it more often.

Over the past few days I've had multiple shocking moments learning what Genji can and cannot deflect.
At first I thought it was just normal projectiles like bullets and arrows, then I learned he can deflect melee hits as well, then I learned he can deflect ults, then I learned he can deflect sound waves, rockets, S:76's heal and a BLACK HOLE??
Is the only thing he can't deflect energy based weapons on Symettra, Winston and Zarya?

Can't deflect Mei ice freeze either

POTG is beyond useless but votes are a look into people's psyche

the picking 4-5 of a certain hero class is kind of funny at first, but gets annoying when your pit against the same team that does it over and over.
I think they should make it so that for every hero u pick the same of, it's a 5% decrease in that hero's damage, for each of the same hero you pick.
if you pick 4 torjborns, his damage and turrets damage is reduced by 20 percent per person.
and if you pick 5 soldier 76s, all their damage is reduced by 25%, so on and so forth.
I feel like that would balance it out a bit more.

I just got it today. Enemy team kept attacking into my shields over and over. I love Zarya when she gets 80+ energy. She destroys.

You mean he has a slight counter for Winstons God rage?!? OMG. Actually he throws it on the ground and you run over it.

Always vote support. Some games where my team did terribly, I'll even vote for the other team's support instead of the one teammate who managed to get recognition. Want to encourage players taking on that thankless role every time I can.

Is the NA meta like this too? Every single game it's "Mercy Reinhardt Mercy Reinhardt Mercy Reinhardt Mercy Reinhardt"
Playing Symmetra? "Mercy mercy mercy mercy"
Playing Zarya? "Reinhardt reinhardt reinhardt reinhardt"
Junkrat is absolutely a defense character. His trap is a way to cover choke points which does little for you on offense. His grenades are also mostly a way to put suppressive fire in an area, which also doesn't quite do that much on offense since you're not really pushing an objective by doing that. At best his role on offense is to help break through a tight choke with grouped up enemies..
Powered up Zarya is the scariest Tank match as Reinhardt, I have a good handle on every other match up but when she's being played right I struggle to deal with it. So good. I will always vote up a good Zarya.

Just change his amp it up ability to triangle, and switch jump to one of the triggers.

Not in quick play. Most people are just happy someone picked a tank and a healer. They don't care which ones from what I've seen.

No, nor is EU.
Yeah a good Zarya and a good Roadhog I will usually always up vote.
He can throw it on you. I usually don't have anything agaisnt landing on it. And its not God Rage unless you know how to use it.

Reinhardt and Mercy or Lúcio are present in at least half of my matches, but thankfully there is a lot of variety in quick play. Ranked will probably not have as much, though I will still play the heroes (plural) I like the most, but that is just me.

On McCree I think I just saw on his stream that he averages 50%
His trap is absurdly easy to see. just keep on eye out when fighting a junkrat and you should avoid it no problem.
Wow, that's really really good

He's having a showmatch right now but not sure if there is a stream... I saw ppl like zombs and gods so wtf? ;/
All of these are very easy to counter
Luminosity Gaming vs Gale Force eSports showmatch about to start:

EDIT: 1 hero limit, best of 7. Should be a good watch.

The charge is waaaaay too quick, it's the easiest sniper class in any game I've ever played. That charge time needs to be at least double what it currently is.

They should remove map bans from competitive play. It's fucking boring to see them playing on Hollywood/ Kings row all the time
