Goddamn, looking at overbuff and why am i always in the 90< in obj elims despite not having great elims records.
Either I'm playing it right or I'm playing it wrong. I can't tell anymore.

Non of the stat tracking sites seem to be updating for me, even the official one.

It's a bnet problem. The stat tracking sites just scrape the official one so if that isn't updating then nothing will

Did you win on a KoTH map and lose on a payload/2CP map? There seems to be a bug where you get 10% of the actual gain/loss you should do on KoTH maps, Blizzard are looking into it.
Looking at Overbuff and my accuracy shot up 4% today thanks to a new mouse. It feels so much more comfortable and precise than my old one. 40% accuracy with Soldier
I'm jealous. I switched to a new mouse today and feel like I can't aim for shit. Can't find a DPI/sens setting that feels "right".

I feel kinda wrong saying this.
But I've been finding soldier 76 to be really fun. His DPS at range is kinda obscene.
I tend to only pick him for defense though.

Why feel wrong? He is a decent hero and can be really effective.
People sleep on him because of his design and get off my lawn attitude.

But he's just so... basic I guess. Basic and insanely effective.

lvl 358 with his group of unranked with his 253 hours on hanzo (he's ranked btw)
I usually aim way worse whilst I get used to a new mouse but not this one. This one just fits my hand so perfectly. I had a razer deathadder which was OK but too big for my hands and always felt like something wasn't right, like how it feels when you put your t-shirt on inside out and you know something doesn't feel right but not sure what. I went to a Logitech G303 and it is like

I think I'm going to wait to play competitive for a bit. I got matched against the top twitch streamer today. Not the best time. Hopefully the top tier players will move up a bit.

Though really, ever since giving him a run it made me wonder about all those 76 I've played with that just sits on the main chokepoint with biotic field, plinking away at the main enemy group. I find him much more powerful when i constantly maneuver to different positions with him.

Scary and disgusting. It reminds me of disgusting National Geographic documentaries about insects.

Just switched to a zowie za12 and a gs-r to replace my deathadder 2013 and qck and I'm really liking the change so far. The deathadder feels so light and clumsy compared to the zowie personally. Really feels well made compared to the DA. Had to mess around with the dpi and in game sensitivity but I think I've found a good spot for now.
Yah. Picked him randomly one night and immediately got a 15 player kill streak.
He's obscenely accurate at range.

I'm scared. I think I'm too high. 9/1 on placements.
Last game went coin flip on hanamura, got attack. Team went 4 winston, lucio, mercy. Then halfway into attack went 3 winston, 2 reaper, lucio to secure point and win coin flip. Hilarious but necessary for the timer.

His survivability is amazing, using sprints to retreat and heal to recover. His powers might be basic but there's a lot of finesse in positioning and moving him around... not a boring hero at all.
He's very generic and not that exciting when you compare him to other heroes. But he's ridiculously effective at a group setting. He's pretty much the only 'push with the payload' Offense hero you should use.
I use him a lot even though I'm not a huge fan of the playstyle. But he's just super effective.

Okay, 4-4. Everything needs to be KotH from now on, because we are wrecking shop on it.
Have they played enough games? In my experience the tracking sites don't show anything until you're about 50-60 games in
Bothare hovering around 300 games played

It's scary when I've played pharah to the point when if I'm on defend, and the start timer is about to end. My first rocket is right in front of the opening door and most often enough, if there is no reinhart or dva can claim a kill inside the spawn.
On Console, Tracer can be a serious and continuous pain in the ass for the other team even if they throw a Winston at her. Even if she dies, she'll blink and be back in the action faster than anyone else anyway.
Even on Payload Defense she seems to be a great choice to disrupt the back line of the Attack team constantly and I'm seeing it more and more.

I love playing her on defense on anubis and kings row, and staying on their side of the choke point harrassing them. Oftsn times ill be taking 3-4 players from the main push to chase me around their spawn area.
my first placement game had a 3 stack that all picked junkrat and shit on me for complaining about it when we lost
one of them said i wasn't doing shit when i had gold elims/damage and silver obj kills/time as tracer
when tracer does more damage than any of 3 junkrats you need to reevaluate yourself

I've destroyed countless Winstons using Tracer.

Genji is just as big of a cunt TBH. Yeah he doesn't have recall to gain his health back but a good Genji will sneak up on you with a few shuriken, get your attention, wait for you to react and fire a few shots, reflect, then dash through you/melee, then throw a finishing shuriken, all the while bouncing around like an idiot.
Play more than one and it's basically non stop dragon blades after a minute or two if your tank allows itself to be their ult battery. It's sooooo annoying if you don't jump on Mei/McCree/Junkrat/Winston right away. If you aren't one of those characters you might as well ignore them unless you are out of their dash distance/they've already used reflect.

I can at least respect a good Genji since he's not an easy character.

Genji is way more of a pest than tracer.
At least tracer doesn't have an ult that can regularly wipe out teams.

Only thing is Tracer's ult is easier to use and charges super quick.

LOL what? I just gained a quarter point from winning for the third time straight in ranked. What the actual shit. And my team barely one with some serious pushing and carrying with Lucio. I got nearly 5 minutes of objective time and 21k healing in five rounds of KoTH (didn't spend all of it using Lucio though). I ended up with 29 eliminations, in which 21 of them where objective kills.
They still refuse to listen to pick suggestions; they don't like tanks (other than Roadcock) and healers. Torb is a must-pick, or pick him back when we start winning. The lower end of ranked in a nutshell. I hate getting stuck there; I hope those who quit during placement matches get sterilized.
I am starting to get really good with Lucio. I am more aware of my surroundings and when to switch from healing to speed boost during fights; dat wall running too. I saw someone from nV pro team play an amazing Lucio and I took notes, so I realized I should start specializing and focusing on specific characters. I will still do quick play matches for practice and take ranked slowly.

Second day in competitive. I don't like the atmosphere in this mode as I do in quick play. And I've quickly learned to silence every person in chat, teammate and opponent alike. Chat is 100x more toxic than quick play. People used to say almost nothing, now they're cursing and screaming. I'm not dealing with it.

Not as versatile though. It's very situational when it comes to taking out groups. Hell, i frequently survive it as roadhog.
Somewhat off topic, but I could never understand why people can have a backlog of videogames. Especially for those who buy games out of habit, but will otherwise never play them.

Same here. I fear genjis alt way more than tracers. Although as roadhog I usually have hook up and have gotten pretty good at anticipating and countering. I'll usually survive unless I'm already low health and haven't healed.

If I'm playing as rein i have no hesitation in ulting just to stop a genji ult. It's that good.
I have a backlog because there are a lot of games I was looking forward to and bought but don't have the time to play as I work full time and have other responsibilities and commitments outside of work hours.
