Problem with Mei and Genji are that if they get buffed, they could easily go from shitty to stupid pretty quick. Genji might not be as bad but Mei could easily go over that line without careful adjustments.
Mei is less of a playmaker and more a stage setter.. The kind of insight and play to make full use of that can be pretty hard to find. If the team isn't aware of that possibility so they can take full advantage, it gets wasted as well.

Right now if you hit shift and start GA and hit shift again it will cancel it. If toggle is off you have to keep shift held down and you'll guardian angel to your teammate as long as it is held down. This is better for oh-shit situations because I'm imagining you can hold shift down and target towards a teammate and as soon as GA is available you'll start zipping towards them until you let off shift.
Descent is holding jump so you slowly float down (passive). Guardian angel is zip to your teammates (shift cooldown ability). Resurrect is ultimate

I assume it's hold to Guardian Angel, and let go to cancel. So if you only want to fly part of the way to your target, you have that option. I think? you might already be able to cancel GA by jumping.
EDIT: never mind, look above this post, hit GA again to cancel.
Well it helps that he had a good Lucio and the team play was solid overall.
I guess some Tracers are different, but I haven't seen one as safe as his. I'm high risk reward as fuck with her lol and I usually always find an opening for her ult ASAP because I feel like I can get it back really fast.
Well Op did say it's hold to GA, so i'm guessing standard presses cycle through corpses. Guardian Angel is the fly to ability btw.

ressurect is her ult.
GA is the one that she zips to teammate.
i don't know most of the ability by name. lol.
I would like one or 2 new maps. Just saying.
Oh and am i reading some Tracer hate here? She is easily the best thing in this game, well one of manay lol. You want to kill Tracer? Git gud with Tracer!
That just proves bad design.

Kind of interesting to see so much more Roadhog after the Widow/McCree nerfs. Especially after the McCree nerfs if you really think about it, since you don't lose your entire HP bar in half of a second
Roadhog such a fun class to play too, I'd love to watch some professional play to get some tips.

Agreed. I wouldn't mind a KOTH playlist.

He's run more as a DPS character rather than a pure tank as people traditionally think of him here.

lucio- the extremely op hero that nobody ever uses (on console)
Not on PTR.

I don't find Mei that fun or dynamic, myself.
Zarya and Roadhog are, to me. Roadhog is one of my favorites. I had a game with 92% hook accuracy on the MVP card but I didn't screenshot it so it might as well have not happened.
Professional? Just watch me. ( _)>⌐■-■
Anyway, here's a screenshot of one of my absolute favorite team comps: 2x Roadhog + Mercy

you can still stack. idk if they place restriction on more than 2 but i was in games where they kept stacking 2 reinhardts
He's 1 on both PS4 and Xbox in popularity so might just be you.
You'd think more Roadhog and removing Widow 1HKO bodyshots would have made Zenyatta more popular.
In my own experience though the Widows and McCrees were mostly replaced by a somehow even bigger Genji army.

where do you see those numbers? I believe you, I just didn't know that data was available

The tiebreaker round in competitive is a joke, favors defense waaay too much
TWO MINUTES to break through their shit? and they STILL get their minute of prep. It can take 30 sec to realize they're running a 5 torb defense and then you have 90 seconds to defeat it and cap or you lose, Grade A Extra Fancy bullshit

Yes. In controls at the top change hero dropdown then all the changes you make are hero-specific.
You can change crosshairs for all of them
omg youre the real mvp
Change colors too altho I prefer default white.
"I'll switch after I use my ult" then I either die before I get a chance or I survive just long enough to get another 75% ult and the process continues.
I run into this a lot as Reinhardt with bad teams. It's even worse with him because I tend to survive some crazy stuff and keep on trucking. But if your team isn't using the shield or killing enemies you are a big waste of space. I need to more quickly identify when it's time to swap to Winston or Zarya.

Has anyone on console changed the jump button to L3? Is it worth it or is changing it to a bumper better?
I've learned to walk forward just a step while firing with Roadhog after I've hooked someone. I'm not sure if it helps or not, but I feel like it does. I personally aim for center mass just to land as many shots as I can, but I'm probably doing it wrong.

I aim towards the neck area usually. His shotgun sprays with a decent spread, so if you aim directly at the head too many of the pellets go to the sides or above the head. If you directly aim at the torso however, then you won't get enough headshots. The neck is a better balance in my experience, but it depends on how low on health they are too. I could be doing it completely wrong though
That said, depending on hook shenanigans and latency it might not matter and they get away no matter what.

In my experience the tiebreaker is heavily weighted in the attackers' favor. The spawn is so much closer, and with two well coordinated teams, the offense should almost always have the advantage. I have yet to win one on defense.
I play him non-stop, and he's really fun, but mannnnn I wish other people would play him more so I can get a break.

You should be able to kill a 200 health hero with no headshots. Just aim for their chests. Verify on the training dummies

The console version aim assist is hot garbage and has led to me missing kills so many god Dann times. And you can't even turn it off
Oh that tracer blinked across the map in your cross hair? Let me spin you 45 degrees

There's aim assist? I barely notice it.

I've had a moment where I was killing a turret and trob walked from one side of it to the other and peeled the cross hair off it
I've had a genji dash across in front of me as I was going for a head shot on another target only for my cross hair to be pulled away to the side at a almost 90 degree turn
I changed to bumper jumper early on(with the exception of soldier and tracer) and it's been working great. I've seen a few people prefer L3 in this thread though. Might be harder for you to break your button pattern if you're now deciding to switch though.

After playing this game on console yesterday, I can safely say Pharaoh, Tracer, and Torbjorn are much more of a bitch to deal with.
