D.Va is the GOAT. When it comes to tanks I dont know if I like her or Zarya more.
Nah cause losing is discouraged more than character switching. A win is a win.
Only happened once and he was a 66 and I punched him twice and switched to the two characters between reaper constantly to remind him I was a 75 so he switched off :')
That was a close call.
(for the record I'll go McCree or tank then I guess)
Playing D.Va on KotH is the most fun thing ever, it seems like any time I pick her I'm constantly in the middle of the fight for the entire match. I had a match earlier on Lijang where I went 10-3 in the first round and we lost and then I proceeded to go 38-1 over the last two rounds and got a 92% kill participation. One of the most satisfying games I've ever played.
Good lord that sounds fun. I haven't had time to play in a while, but as soon as I do I'm trying out the new and improved Dva.

Even before the buff I love dva on KotH.
Now she's extra fun because there are so many death blossoms, whole hogs and barrages in KotH. So many.

I'd agree that she was also fun but thanks to defence matrix being a lil silly you can actually stand and fight now. It just feels so good for my characters to not be trash anymore. Plus being able to just eat almost any ult in the game at any time is pretty great.

I'm finally starting to see the appeal of playing as Mei.

Why are you picking useful characters? Stop being such a tryhard bro. It's just a game.
I wish people called me a tryhard.

I've had my fair share of teammates pointing out that we got "raped" after losing a match, which isn't much better in my opinion.

Only message I've ever gotten was some guy sending me a voice message regarding my obnoxious Mei play.
Of course, I didn't even see it until a day or two after I got it so I don't even remember what I did in that match to make him so upset.
You played Mei.
MarioHead3

No, but what made him upset? Mei does nothing but bring cuteness and joy to every match. Any other team would be delighted to go against her. Even better if there are multiple.

The bad stuff I see are usually people going EZ.
There was this attack torb who asked me to suck his dick when I asked him if might please change character.

You said no, right? :V
Y-you see
Generally when we're delighted to go against a character well
remember zen prepatch?

I remember a certain Gaffer who shall not be named that would play Zen and only Zen until he got the Rapid Discord trophy.
Or D.Va until he got a quad kill ult.
Mei-be your Mei mei-n was just too a-mei-zing.

Clearly you're the only one here who truly understands me.
Because I sure as hell don't know what the fuck I'm on about.
Go to sleep :c

No, rank isn't solidly locked in with skill
unless 75 is truly top 90 in all of America, in which case- cmon guys, step it up
60 is the minimum needed to be top 500 regardless of skill
151->154 according to me checking. Your rank won't fluctuate while you're gone a day more than 15, that's nice to know.

He was just trying to get all the trophies and those were the last ones he needed. I don't think he actually liked those characters any more than the others. Plus, I haven't actually seen him online in quite some time.

You know, I kid, but I super kinda want a hero whose abilities is to summon robots.
Summoning characters are my jam usually.

Don't Torb and Symmetra more or less fill that role?
A builder who gets resources from enemy kills like Torb, and then builds AI mechbots which can be upgraded with more resources.
Okay so this hanzo tech is pretty unique
Once you die, you actually have a hidden tool to make him twice as viable. You want to hold square or the 'H' key, depending on your platform. Then you want to go left or right, really, either will work, and hit confirm. Your hanzo is now at least twice as viable, as promised.
This trick works on all platforms btw.
Shamelessly stole the SSBM joke about L+R+A+Start Fox is the best tech for low tiers

I'd rather take a bad Widow or Torb over a bad Hanzo.

Is this person a gaffer? I feel like Ive seen that name before.

Because at least there's something to stare at occasionally?
Don't think I missed that pun. I'm onto you Whippy.
I find this hilarious because I mean't left or right an unspecified amount but
Hanzos trash :3

So
Overbuff is also trash I'm learning. Found a great Zarya and D Va today. Not even ranked. 73, has only played 30 comp matches.
Don't look at someones overbuff only. It's nice to see "oh, this reaper goes 1-2" or "this lucio heals less than my soldier" but not the end all be all.

Overbuff is only pulling from playovereatch tbf, it just breaks down the stats in interesting ways.
Shoutout to comp affecting your QP score
So
Just use your QP score tbh.
Or neither, since if you're say, skill 70 vs 50, you'll be killed a lot more and do a lot less, so a 50 might have better stats, but you know, QP isn't a good metric.

Nah, because at least a bad Widow can provide infrasight and occasionally line up a shot, and a bad Torb can still perhaps get a kill or two off of his turret and provide armour, but a bad Hanzo does nothing.

My quick play stats make me look like I may actually be a good player, while my comp stats expose me for the fraud that I am.
So, I'd rather people just look at my QP stats so I can continue pretending I'm not trash.
