That's an example of TRUE potg...
Really? I tried to but it didn't work. Maybe I fucked up

Given equal skill, if both 76 and McCree are not missing their shots, the 76 will win every single time on account of the fact that his burst damage at mid range is superior. In the time it takes McCree to land 3 headshots, he will already have been shredded to nothing by a pulse burst and a helix rocket. And the 76 can heal mid fight. And he can escape if he's losing. As long as he's not near flashbang, the fight is decided by whether the 76 hits his pulse rifle bursts and not the other way around. It's 76's fight to lose. As a McCree, I would not take this fight against a good 76 if I didn't immediately get a headshot or get a flashbang off.

Great job OP and title had me in tears
You can't not play his game when he's on defense at their spawn point. He might as well be a character in the defense category on those maps. Stun+ kill any flankers while they're distracted by a reaper or something else. Stun 2 flank attackers, kill roll kill.
How is he king? He can't flashback, can't right click and can only really hope to roll in and turn the situation into close combat. He left click sucks in a one on one against any hero decent at mid range unless he's crazy good.

^76 has that killer rocket barrage. I totally take a good 76 against McCree (I may be biased since I am one).

Genji solves all the McCree problems, like he solves most problems:

I swear, I was playing a game last night where Mei was doing this weird bunnyhop constantly up and off the cart and almost none of us could consistently hit her. What was weird is that I was solider and should have been hitting her way more than I was. It took switching to an AoE damaged to hit her.
Anyone ever see that? I feel that something was screwy with the hit box

I want to love Winston, but pub players never take advantage of the chaos he causes to push/push back the enemy team. I charge in like a maniac, turn on rage mode, slap a few guys around, maybe get a kill, and then die and see that the rest of my team is sitting back picking their noses instead of pushing the objective. It's absolutely infuriating.
Also his gun does no damage at all. Symmetra has a better gun than him at close range.

Someday, I'll fulfill my dream of reflecting a high noon.
I'm never in the right place. All you have to do is run out in the open and hold reflect.

If you see it, wait a couple seconds and go right up in to his face and then hit reflect!

I feel like everyone ignores Mercy unless I'm playing as her. Then everyone goes out of their way to kill me and I end up fighting 3 Tracers each of whom wants to kill me no matter what.
When the enemy team has a Mercy everyone on my team wants to 1v1 Reinhardt.
Did you win?
Naturally. As Pharah, I should have said.

You scoff, but Mei's in-game tip from Blizzard is to not fight her 1v1.
I whish I could say the same but, I actually got a couple of solo kills on a Bastion as Mercy so...

His six foot roll? I guess you could count it, but I wouldn't. It's very much an offensive tool, not an escape.
Genji is bae

Having so much fun with this guy. Also reflected Bastion's ultimate earlier but it didn't kill him

As someone who's died healing a McCree from this very interaction I can tell you that flashbang can both be deflected and the stun will land back on people.
Uh no, Solider is better than McCree at mid range because he fires faster and is just as accurate. Plus he has heal, is faster and can't be hit by flashbang at that range.

The only problem with McCree is that he's a low-skill ceiling character. I have no worries that the meta against him will evolve.
Yep. I got one deflected on me aswell playing as McCree.
How is that any different from the spy from tf2? I recall days where he would sneak up on the attackers and get tons of backstab kills while they were distracted. The solution is the same. Don't get distracted.stick to open ground and keep your eyes peeled. If you see him approaching gun him down before he gets close. If you HAVE to flank, be very careful and don't be afraid to run away to open ground, and buddy up so your teamate can kill him even if you die.
He didn't say Genji can't deflect the flashbang, he said if you throw a flashbang at Genji's feet on the ground he can't deflect it and he is right.
You can also throw on over his head to stun him without risking deflection, Reinhardt can be stunned from front this way too even if his shield is up.
And his flashbang isn't? It lasts for like a second.
My days of playing TF2 have taught me to never underestimate how stupid people can be
Won a game on Gibraltar without the enemy team touching the cart because they couldn't deal with two Torbelrones.
Had several games as Zenyetta where I got the most kills on the team because the team did so bad
Games where teammates don't seem to learn that blindly charging and overextending into fights gets them killed because I'm not going to follow them into a death trap
And the always classic past time of teams who never defend the side routes and let the exact same player get behind enemy lines so they can constantly kill the support who has to try and fight them off themselves.

I don't see what the solution to McCree's power is anyways. He exists to counter all the Tracer, Reaper, and Genji types running around. If we didn't have him, the character spam for those three would be overwhelming.

I just had my team pick all reapers, and I was frustrated, and then the enemy team came out the gate with all Winstons. It was pretty strange, but those shotguns killed all those poor monkeys

.70 seconds to be precise.
1 headshot and 1 bodyshot kills 76. mccree has higher dps than him at any range.

You should also secretly hate Symmetra if you notice the opposing team reaching the point really fast after you just killed them.
I enjoy putting up teleporters as Symmetra

You know it's a bad round when you get the gold for 5 seconds objective time...
