Honestly, the Reaper ones get under my skin more.
I got one yesterday with Symmetra. Now that's a rarity.
There's a lot of things they could do with Widow so I wonder what it's going to be. Longer charge time, longer wait between shots regardless of charge, more recoil when firing, fewer shots in a given clip, etc.
Probably not ALL of those, but there are multiple areas to tune from.

I actually have quite a few of those, if you get your weapon charge up you can drop some a couple of guys easy. add to that maybe a sentry turret kill and you can get some solid Plays.
Should have been Reaper with a Q ready.

I'd really be interested to see the stats on how many teams win on attack vs defense. I feel like my 50% win rate is basically because I always win in defense and lose on attack. Especially on attacking/defending point A and point B. Seems those maps heavily favor the defense, so I'd be interested to see overall stats in comparison and whether or not it's just confirmation bias on my part.

Apparently with the competitive scene, attack is much more likely to win than defense.

Heh. That's cute.
Reminds me of the time I was defending on KOTH and went to hook a Lucio, but I missed and I ended up dragging a Winston into the point instead. Oops.

Really? I'm sure I haven't seen more than a few since the game came out.
Thanks, I'm gonna try apply this to my playstyle.
Also thanks for this!
I'm gonna practice with Genji exclusively this week.
Try getting one as Lucio. Good luck with that. Unless you kill 3+ people at once using your alt fire near a cliff, I don't see how when you have to fight against people using their Qs or stronger weapons.
the full heal isn't half bad either.

Huh. Interesting. I'm guessing maybe it's because it's easier to organize a team competitively for making pushes and scouting out the defensive points, versus public games where defending is sort of brain dead in that if you find the right spots for turrets/sniper coverage and the attacking team always trickles in it makes it pretty simple to succeed.

Like, if you're on attack, just rush like hell the second you've capture the first objective. They don't have time to setup and it usually generates an easy stomp.
Also god, got so pissed at the matches I get today. How the hell does Mei get gold in both elim and obj elim? We'll never know.

It's always disheartening if you get a triple kill or something as a character who has a hard time doing stuff, and then it's a Reaper or McMeme getting it for pressing Q. ;-;

This has worked for me about 75% of the time on attack in anubis. All you really need is a mei to block of the respawners from reaching the point. A lucio for the speed and some kind of area clesr like a junkrat ult.
My last Bastion highlight consist of me sitting in front of a door holding down left mouse button while 3 people walked in and got sprayed down. Didn't even move my mouse. It was so lame. :'D
I love hooking Reapers with a Q, Still can one shot them right when they try to get it off

I got my second legendary yesterday. Its Pharahs Mechaqueen. Which is great because not only is it a cool skin shes one of my most play characters.
Hey, I do this often even when playing with friends. Just means you're playing her
in an evil fashion
Very interested in this as well. I think the game heavily favors defense, and mostly due to the fact that pubs generally lack coordination in attack.
The majority of my wins as Attack on Anubis has been with this rushing strategy as well. Strangely, it rarely works with the other two Capture Point maps.

Like, you'd think that the assortment of assault heroes on your team should be able to kill better right?
It's not so great when it's you trying to move the bloody payload but everyone else is dying too quickly for whatever reason.
Also had one goddamn attack anubis match where this guy just won't hop off attack torb for whatever reason. We took the first point through some unholy miracle but for the second point all he did was build the turret on the front entrance which kept getting destroyed because of course it would be. Thank god the server crashed because I would hate eating an L just due to that.
On a brighter note, saw one of those teams on the opposing side that uses the meme two widow two reaper set, which worked for awhile, but then I just switched to rein, made sure someone was on my flank to catch those reapers, and made it into an easy stomp.

It's the worst when you get 33 eliminations and a 22 killstreak and no one but your buddy votes for you.

Hello, World.
Prevented the other team from winning I. Overtime the other day by si gle handedly eliminating half the team as fucking Zenyatta w no backup. I'll give you three guesses who got potg.
It's not even like the game doesn't recognize these moments as important. If you go to highlights after playing g a few games, your potg worthy moments are usually listed there. It's just up to blizzard to reorder what's important by maybe taking some importance off of easy plays that just happened to kill a lot of people, which is why we understand up w the same potgs over and over.

I just typed "forced 50 is real" and it was enough to make my team get it together and put up a second point defence on Hanamura after losing the first on the first push.
Playing with randoms on PS4 will make you want to rage quit most of the times.
It's always great winning on 'attack', because I agree; it's way easier to defend. You can defend without co-ordinating, but attacking requires a bit more smart selection of roles and playing together. Playing with randoms, that becomes quite random, literally.
Had a fun game where I pinned down enemies at the choke point with my brother, with two symmetras. They were simply unable to get into the choke point. When our roles reversed and we were on the attack side, we both chose Winston, and the rest of the team decided to do so as well (apart from one Lucio and maybe a Widowmaker).
The other team had decided to go with six symmetras. Which is fun, because Winston simply kills her turrets with ease. We fucking steamrolled over them.
Fun game, that was.

It all depends on your level of tolerance. I'm fine playing pickup games with randoms, but I know what I'm getting into. Some people here will tell you to play with nothing but friends. You gotta make that call.

How effective is routinely luring the enemy team into the point during that last 30 second rush on getting the payload missions? At the beggining of a Kings Row game I told my team that even if we stomp them the whole match to be cautious on the 30 second countdown where they all lose it and rush the point. We basically were all spread out so when they rushed and ulted we were all seperated, our mei tossed out her ult on the point froze tem and I finished them with high noon, it was beautiful.
Err Mercy doesnt heal his shield?
