And, by sheer coincidence, I do not like most ranked modes in most games.
But Overwatch only removes stacked on Ranked. So.

I'll give these a try!Probably never, because people are actually picking DVa now

And it's not even OP in the first place, so it doesn't need a nerf
Other than Winston, the tanks are right where they need to be.

team comp for attack was great on king's row. then i see what they picked for defense....................................... :vomits:
EDIT: at least some switched off when we lost the first point. held them at the first chokepoint in the factory. won it.

Agreed, I would really like a Winston buff. He still has his uses imo and if I'm being supported well I can cause panic + scattering with him, but it's so hard to confirm kills, even on the squishies.And it's not even OP in the first place, so it doesn't need a nerf
Other than Winston, the tanks are right where they need to be.
Also is it just me or is Winston's gun useless against Torb's turret?

It's so weird how some teams can do so well on offense, but absolutely suck on defense, or vice versa. Another reason why sudden death is garbage.

It's because the game encourages a snowballing rampage on attack currently.

I think Roadhog's hook hitbox needs adjustment, and Winston is mostly fine because he does what he does very well and also gets picked very often in tournament play. If anything, his shield bubble could get a bit of a buff, but otherwise he's fine imo.
I kind of quit, ish.
As I said before, once I got ranked top 100+76 skill, I didn't care anymore, there was nothing left to do besides drag friends to my level. However, one friend got really annoyed last time and kinda quit after we lost a few (we're queuing without a tank, itll happen) so we're done for now, which works for me. I'll prob lose my "spot" (prob fall into the 600s or so) but w/e.
On that note, I have no issues against rebuying on PC. I'm just waiting for origins edition to hit $35 in BST again <_>
But yeah I'm not mentally done with OW, just taking a short break :3
^also to the guy above, thats a major part of why I quit for now. Comp is frustrating for some so it's not fun for me by extent and QP is a joke at best now.

Yeah, that's what I was saying earlier about Winston was to buff his shield. As a Roadhog main, I think his hitbox is fine. The "I got hooked through a wall" thing is more tick rate than the hook because 9/10 times they had you dead to rights, but from your perspective, you got hooked through a wall. To fix that, they would have to up the tick rate on the QP and Ranked servers to what it is in custom matches.
Don't worry, there's still games in the upper 60s where teams don't communicate

well surpisingly held them almost until OT so it wasn't that bad. but that was alot of sound barrier activated during the round though. ended with 15K healing because the team was so tight together i could heal and charge up my ult so quick. i think i ended the match with over 30 people using the sound barrier. because somehow. i ended up in zarya's ult and end up ulting every time saved a few people during that except one time where i solo ulted because i thought the rest of the team was with me.
Can confirm
Mid 70s too.
People will be a DPS main and see 3dps and 2 healers and still pick a dps if it's all they can do. Not even kidding.

I mean....you only play Reaper, so I don't know why you're complaining
Telling y'all right now you don't want to be trapped inside of a buffed Winston shield or to have it sitting longer in the middle of your team fight. Shit gets crazy already when he manages to lock out half a team for just a couple seconds.
The guy lands on people dealing 50 AOE splash damage, locks them from the rest of the team, and starts dealing cleave damage. While being super tanky and having the leap on a low enough CD he can just bail. You guys want that to be stronger?
I get why people want Sym adjusted, but that actually makes no sense to me lol

I'm a reaper main, if we need a tank I'll go Roadhog or such. I might not be the best at him due to a huge time gap and the fact my 70s rank was reached with a DPS, but like hell I'm picking our 4th dps.
Also playing Genji in QP makes me want to buy on PC so badly.
the games aren't always good but it does feel like some new game plus shit in terms of matches
Mercy hate...what has this game become? You are going to get Ana as your only healer next game for this.

Of course a Roadhog main would say that.
But is it really?Mind you the video is outdated about projectile hitboxes, but to my knowledge, no changes were made to Roadhog's hook.
I wouldn't change anything about the shield itself, but lower its cooldown by a second or two, at best. The shield itself is fine.
Every single one of your posts mentions your 70s rank. Every. Single. One.
Yes, I'm jealous, hahaha
Nah, just recently, since it's why I had to quit :<
So mainly on this page/last probably
Also cause I don't play QP so the game is a completely different thing at that rank.
Now, on topic, roadhogs chain is stupid. The amount of times I've gotten chained through walls is ridiculous.
Is it tick rate? Does the game not care about walls?
Edit: *scrolls back* pls this is my only instance for 5 pages and I post in here a ton >_>

Nah. It's just how the game is designed. A couple of well aimed Ults from the offense team can win them the game.

Ranked.
First round of volksaya. we are on attack. took the first point easily. then we got stuck trying to capture the last one. couldn't really get near it so we never got it. the Lucio on their other team goes ez after that round. no one on our team said anything. So it was our turn to defend.
well.

Except even with those hit boxes, the average hook accuracy is around 45-55%, so it's not like hooking people is insanely easy. I'm sure there's a reason why they are like that and I feel that any nerf to Roadhog will make him inferior to the other tanks.Of course a Roadhog main would say that.
Mind you the video is outdated about projectile hitboxes, but to my knowledge, no changes were made to Roadhog's hook.
The issue is his chain right now is cheap. Would you like to get defense matrix'd around 2 corners or eating a lucio bloop as you've turned a corner by a whole second? That's what it basically is at this point- a move that completely ignores players going out of their way to avoid it.
Theres skill in accuracy but it's by no means a fair move.
After I sleep I might write some thoughts on Roadhog. The long and short of it is I don't think he's OP right now, but his design is a huge problem and the current hook mechanics are not great for game health. He'll probably need to be changed in the future somehow, but we're not to that point yet.
Are you playing the PC version? My Battle.net username is Blues1990.

Sorry, I sounded snarky. 70s is amazing.
Finally starting to win consistently in ranked after I traded Mercy for Zenyatta as my go to.
He's perpetual beast mode for me.
Ps4 <_<
nah its fine, I get a (mostly fake irl considering all things) ego when I get ranked silly high XD

The character that's currently really breaking the game is Lucio, believe it or not.
