I like playing Mercy on rooftops like in Dorado and so, she can reach everyone from the top without worrying about getting ganked.
If this happened with Mei I would cut off my hand
Evidence that even when McCree gets nerfed, Seagull will still wreck face with him.
Seriously took down half a fucking team yesterday in overtime as Zenyatta to win the first objective on attack.
Potg goes to a fucking torb.

A problem is that people already commonly find things that are directly related to kills boring. If POTG expanded to more contextually non-obvious moments like a healer just healing at a pivotal moment, you open the system up to even more "boring" moments. People want to have their cake and eat it too, but unless they want minute long POTGs that also have to summarize their significance, shutdowns, lifesavers, etc are always the safest bet.

Weird I feel like the reverse is happening. Been on a losing streak with randoms for a day or two now. It getting to be clockwork, lose 5 win 1. Can't tell you how many unorganized teams I'm running into. I'm seeing more people running off from the group or bastions and junk rats hanging back and not staying on objective. It's starting to be a downer, because before I felt the teams always felt pretty tight on average.

Did Hanzo kill someone after being rezzed? I think that's one of the PotG highlights.

So, how am I supposed to break a 3 bastion 3 torbjorn defense on temple of anubis again?

Let me tell you about this gal called D.va... She can launch the equivalent of a nuclear missle every so often, and it is the perfect bunker buster.
Please note: I have never pulled off this strategy against a Toblerone/Bastion team. But it will happen one day, and be the stuff of legends.
And yeah, teamwork will be the second ingredient. You need to gain ground immediately after clearing them or it all falls apart.
Breaking all the assault maps in pubs is stacked against you. I feel like those are the ones that require the most team coordination and you do not get that without grouping up 90% of the time.
Seriously. With antibacterial soap.
I just got into a game with teammates doing double McCree and no healer. S76 is all these fuckers get. 😐
I wanted this one purely because it reminds me of Gurren Pagano.

Run in the left door using the rest as decoys
It's not like all of the Bastion's and turrets will be close together so the ult will kill them.
You will not win against that defence setup. Bastion's DPS is insane (see DPS chart linked above) and the turrets have unerring instant aim.
I wanted to see if there was any delay for the turrets so I went as far back as possible to a rooftop with Genji, as soon as a pixel of me was out of cover I was taking dmg.
They are just stupid broken right now.
his ultimate? no, it doesnt do damage
Hanzos, Hanzos everywhere. Well three of them. Then one Reinhardt, one Lucio and one balanced cowboy man.

Junkrat is probably the best since you can hit from outside of LOS.
But DVA works too, she can defense matrix and your entire team has several seconds of DPS without fear of dying. Then when you get ultimate you can clear out a lot or force bastions to move and your team takes them out the same.

The thing with such a setup is, they absolutely cannot handle being pushed back. All of them take precious seconds to set up again and even more to return to battle. Even with a Reinhard or something, they cannot protect everyone at once and a coordinated strike would decimate them. Even trading 1-for-2 would give a decisive edge to the attacker if they could keep the heat up--eventually locking down the area for themselves.
The issue is, it gets harder the longer the match goes on, as the Toblerones build up scrap and ults.
I do not doubt such a comp is beatable, even if I haven't done it yet. (My team got shutdown hard by an all-Toblerone defense a few days back.)
Well yeah but you have to be stupidly up close and have all your shots to hit, which in most cases will mean you die so.

She just kept putting her turrets up in the same location and I ran circles around the map just zapping them.

I almost got the 4 kill with D.Va ult achievement earlier in a GAF game by launching it at a Zarya ult. The reaper got away with his shadow form though :'-(. I got 3 kills with it multiple times now but 4 still didn't happen. One of these days...

I was playing junkrat, but it takes so long to kill a bastion with bank shots that we couldn't make any headway on point b.
DVA would have been good for the ult, but pugs can't coordinate a push within the timeframe of one defense matrix
Pharah
YES!

I'd say this is the current tierlist, based on watching tournaments and streams of high level pubs. Of course, this will change as people learn more about the game and balance changes hit. For example, I think there's a lot of potential in Mei's ice wall, but currently she's completely shut down by the prevalence of (double) McCree.
S-tier: McCree, Widowmaker
A-tier: Lucio, Mercy, Winston, Tracer, Reinhardt
B-tier: Soldier 76, Pharah, Junkrat, Genji, Zarya
C-tier: Roadhog, Symmetra, Reaper
D-tier: Mei, Hanzo, Torbjorn, D.Va, Zenyatta, Bastion

Yeah, it's too bad I couldn't find her teleporters. I only found one. But, man, feels good to be part of the 0.5% club lol Plus, I love Winstons pixel spray.
The one I'm dreading the most is Zenyattas 4 kills in 6 seconds discord Trophy.
ppl will get mad but ur not wrong
