Yeah, I'm fine with them patching in new content, but why make us wait until the next major patch, if it obvious that Torb was nerfed out of viability, for example.
Absolutely. He does stupid amounts of damage for a support while still being able to heal a decent amount. He shouldn't be the only support on the team, but he's great when paired with another.
Very, very competitive. Discord is legit and his ult is the perfect ult counter.
More than viable, best healer duo is lucio/zenny right now.
Disco is really important for both mcree/genji. Also the only hero that can reliably heal genji.
This is pretty much what I think, too. Some dudes chewed me out for my Zen pick in one game today and told me to "read up on competitive" and return to quick play, so I wanted to see if that is a common belief.Zarya+Lucio are the meta™
you can literally compensate for any other team comp if you have them and any tank.

Edit: This was as a second support, we were running Lucio + Zen (although I picked Zen first).

Why do people pick junk and torbs on attack.
Why.
Playing as Mei since the hitbox changes went live:

Yeah that's pretty much what I've been thinking. I know that pro level stuff doesn't always work on lower levels but Zen+Lucio has seemed strong enough to me so far.That was optimal, he's crazy.
If you don't want to think of team comp, well
McCree got nerfed so I dunno perfectly for him anymore but
Zen+Lucio needed on a team, D Va is a great tank, McCree was essential
then people argued over the other slots, with stuff like perhaps a winston or another DPS, but never a defense hero.

Huh?
This looks like lag more than it looks like hitbox related.

He's viable but low skill ceiling viable now, meaning good players run you through.
Not like I pretend my character has a high ceiling, hes just very usable at the top level, if you optimize movement and headshots.
(Not like I pretend most of the cast has a crazy high ceiling, I mean really, being good at Roadhog vs being good at Lucio wallrunning is miles apart)
Good McCree players in Comp are devastating. Died to them too much. Either from his range shots or Ult.
Also, if you play Soldier in Comp and you can't do shit against a Pharah, switch to someone else cuz you're useless. Let someone else who can aim pick him.
Zen is amazing. I played him as the teams only support and it wasn't a disaster. I kept up the heals pretty well. And the discord is insane. He's just a ton of fun too.
He's definitely gonna become one of my regulars.
Did you never play him before? Discord was always good, the main difference now is that it's easier to apply it in succession and it keeps up longer because Zenyatta doesn't need to hide as long. As far as his own offense goes, Zenyatta is notably weaker.
I never really played him before. But the faster moving orbs is definitely a big deal. And moving into position with transcendence is huge.Did you never play him before?

As of the buff
"Base shields increased by 50 (now 50 Health/150 Shield)
Primary fire weapon damage decreased from 45 to 40
Alternate fire weapon damage increased from 35 to 40"
He can kill others a lot easier than he could, he can live longer. His only nerf is 5 damage on primary fire, offset with 5 on alt fire.
Matchmaking just had us in a GAF v GAF game, was pretty cool! Someone else joined the group so it broke up the game.
Trying to get a custom game going though, should be fun.
Yeah that was us. It was really fun. I was lovelaika
Which adds up to at least 1 additional shot to kill on every class over 200 HP, as well as the nerfed projectile hitboxes making headshots noticeably more difficult.
If you've actually played Zenyatta before, yeah the difference is notable.
Nerfed hitboxes affect everyone though, it's not really a big difference, the HP buff is an entire third, if offsets those by far.
And yes, if you need 7 shots to kill them, you now need 8. Again, a 9% damage nerf on primary fire with alt fire improving has nothing on a 33% health buff via rechargable shields.
Zenyatta is much more reliant on precise shots. Unlike Genji, Hanzo, and Junkrat, he has no backup plan if his projectiles are missing. He either makes his shots or he dies. And yes, that 1 extra shot makes a huge difference when the person coming at him is Reaper, McCree, Torbjorn, or you know, every single character that is not Tracer. Reaper especially, since the 50 HP barely makes a difference to him.
He's a better support and a much more viable pick. But he's worse at the one thing he used to do well, which is a little displeasing.
Why is there always one piece of shit player who chooses the worst hero.
Tjorborn on attack really? Went from 57 to 50.

Changes in this game happen so fast I can't keep track. McCree and Ana got a nerf?
McCree nerf, Ana buff. Currently only on PC.
the mmr makes no sense. we queue with a party that has a rank 60 and an unranked person. match against a team whose highest rank is like 50. we finis and the rank 60 gets nearly a full bar of xp while the rest of us get like 1/2 to 1/3rd.
this is not how an mmr system should work.

I guess he didn't carry the rest of you through the match?

If the 60 clearly needs to be a higher rank because he is playing THAT good, then it makes sense that the system would try to boost him up to get him to the area he needs to be.
Well, it's hard to tell since you gave us so few numbers, but this could make perfect since.

It's not even necessarily a carry
if he places 99th percentile and does okay that match, the game still thinks overall he should be much higher and throws his rank up.
Kor gets it. It's why the game doesn't want 50s to play with 60s and 70s- it makes the game really hard for everyone.
It's also why your first 10 or so games after you get your rank seem to give/take full levels after a match, but then later on, you're getting/losing 20-40% of a level each match.

Yep. We placed a friend 66, he's gonna fall hard, I feel bad.
that literally makes no sense. the game just magically knows he's 99th percentile so it's pushing him up quickly to get there? then just place him at rank 80 to start with, rofl.

I would just like to reach 55 with a friend but no one wants to play Comp with me. My solo queue hell continues.
So many Roadhogs saving the team with clutch hooks on the Reddit sub. I'm the guy that hooks the nanoboosted Reinhardt into himself and gets clobbered. Literally did that today.
