This is definitely something I've learned lately. I'm usually healing with Mercy or Lucio, but if I have a shit team that's all off fighting in their separate corners I'll just go Reaper or Roadhog or something and get some kills. I contribute more and sometimes we actually win.

came to post this, so good.
Yea I vs. this combo once, they didn't make it very far since they fed us ults all game.
OH MAN OH MAN got back from work and to my surprise my friend over in Alberta bought Overwatch for ps4 i was waiting for a sale before jumping in, but since he game shares me i got the game on my ps4 upon returning from work. Cant wait to jump in and now that i got it for free can at least waste the money i was going to spend on dem sweet loot crates. Glad to be here going to be my new/better smite
I'm also keen to play with people more regularly, although it might be difficult because of time zones (I'm in Australia). Add me if you like. PSN is ramyeon1989.
It's hilarious how people online and in game blame a match going to shit over the lack of the healer not doing their job but yet pick McCree and Reaper can't carry shit.
If all people want to do is play the offense guys then go ahead but actually get the job done. Doing the equivalent of putting your pinky toe in the water to test it out but not actually jump in
Wondering why everyone else has to pitch in and now do the heavy lifting by picking more offense characters or going more aggressive

Have some more white sprays, you know you love them.

just enjoy your sprays
I think it's something bout keyboards that bring out the worst. Actually, I always theorized emails and text messages always make people seem like they are rude and jerkfaces. This is why even at work I prefer verbal or face-to-face communication
For example, I've played a lot of Rainbow 6 Siege on ps4 and that community has been great (beyond the occasional teamkiller) because a lot of people use mics. You just gotta use a mic in R6 to do well

Wish I could, but I'm in an odd position right now. I've never played an FPS on PC before and controller isn't cutting it so I've been trying to learn to use a mouse, but I can barely win 1v1 let alone carry right now, particularly with the dizziness I've been encountering. Hence why I've been stuck back on controller with support heroes.

I find it really weird that it nearly happens every single time.....TIMES RUNNING OUT, " oh shit! We'd better try now!".

Yeah, I've been repping this mindset after the beta.
Learn the health pack spawn points, get a faniliarity for the maps, realize you owe your team nothing except for playing to your ability.
If you slay as a Reaper but can't dodge as a Mercy, I'll take your Reaper by me all day every day.
Well it's better than: "Holy shit times running out, better NOT try for the objective and go for this guy that isn't anywhere near it for my 10 killstreak.. oh HOW'D WE LOSE?!" / "better run away from the objective because I don't want to die, and rather stay alive than try and extending the game".
My party decided to go all Torbjorn and the enemy team couldn't get out of the spawn. So many Pharah's were shot down.
Also had some pretty awesome plays with Genji, I'm not getting a lot of eliminations, but I definitely feel like I won us the game at some points, or at least contributed greatly.

Same boat here. I started with controller and switch to M/KB for the first time.
I'm assuming you're getting dizzy because you're turning too fast?
I changed my mouse dpi to 800 and turned off enhance pointer precision on windows, changed the pointer speed to around the middle, turned off mouse acceleration then lowered my sensitivity on Overwatch to around 10? and that helped out a lot

Zenyatta is fine, always be on the high ground and make sure your team is in the line of sight at all times, heal from a safe range, E Pharahs and other rocket jumping heretics and mow them down.
E Tracers
E Reapers
E anyone who breaks your offensive or Defensive line
Most of all pay attention to your team in your line of sight. You can heal them from a great, safe distance and mostly stay out of trouble
Ult to push points and safe lives, His ult is basically a revive anyway.

That has been the norm in TF2 pubs for like nine years now.
You get a desperate last 30 second Heavy rush that you can't really stop because your team's off conga-ing.
Yes holy cow. So many people don't realize that you can do so much by just knowing where the healthpacks are and monopolizing them constantly. Yes let your teammates use them too, but definitely don't let the other team get them. Makes a big difference even with a healer on your side.
I find it really difficult to see what I'm debuffing... Roadhog and Winston are obviously a bit easier to see, and they're both good targets for it.
Love Zenyatta, I'm not amazing at him but he's so fun to play.

If youre playing in a stack and can control team composition:
On offense, he can work in a reinhardt team composition. Swap your second healer (probably the mercy as lucio is just too good on offense) for zen + soldier. Both can spam from behind shield, and heal a little. The shield also protects zen from widow.
On defense, swap your second healer (lucio this time) for zen + symm. Again, two 'half-healers' make up for the loss of one dedicated healer. The +25 shield from symm protects zen from widow OHKOs.
His ult is hilarious as an enemy junkrat. People don't know how it works and just assume they're invincible like him so a lot of times they won't even shoot at my rip tire

I love Zen but where he is now to where he was before is a gulf.
Now, I say, pick a Lucio.
Give Zen just a touch of survivability. Just a touch. Nothing crazy. His debuff is damn near OP but he's not picked enough for people to cry about it. More appropriately, he dies too fast.

I've been playing really good with him, so many people compliment me in chat about how "FINALLY A GOOD ZEN"
Give him 200 HP.

It's nowhere close to being a revive. I don't even think that it's as good as sound barrier.

I'd rather they take the dota route of hero balancing: keep weaknesses, buff strengths or make them more versatile. This leads to more varried and interesting hero design.
Got another legendary currency today, oh well at least its halfway to something you actually want instead of just another Bastion skin or something. And yeah as you play a lot and gey into the high levels, younjust get used to the occasional legendary. Just open every vox expecting the titular w,w,b,w and sometimes you get something and you go "yay" and move on.

They've had that. There's also one for Sharpshooter that pops up from time to time.

Either google translator isn't very good at understanding Genji or Blizzard has some explaining to do...

It's pretty close actually. I'd get a billion POTGs if they showed how often I shutdown ults with it.
It will save you from pretty much all ults save Junkrat and D'VA

Maybe 175HP, buff the range of healing orbs and speed up his reload animation and rate of fire

I'd guess Google Translator sucks, but pretty hilarious either way.

One thing I'd like to see on Zenyatta is to Let him self revive with his ult. So if you die, press Q and you revive yourself and do your healing.
What exactly would they have to explain if that was what he was saying?

What's wrong? Sounds in character for Genji to me
It's 100hp/s in 10m for 6s so it's like a better more focused amp it up.

I think some people should practice with him, I find an E + A headshot and a half will down most threats. He is good at countering roaming dickheads like Roadhog or Winston who can just get E'd and have their plans go to shit.
Pharah too. I've pissed off so many Pharahs who try to go all MLG and you just E them and they die.
