Out of 12 people, myself and the person I was grouped with were the only ones to get cards. Don't know how considering I played horribly and we barely won.
Yeah...first time I've ever seen that.

Game is such a rollercoaster at times. Still fun though.
I was just messing around with random characters to show off the new skins I got. Sorry I wasn't really trying tonight. But you guys did well.

Lucioball is a great diversion.
Feels like maybe it's a tad slow movement wise and lacks the ambiance of Rocket League. There's so much dead air without much background noise/music/cheering going on. The hit box on the ball also seems a tad wonky from time to time, but it's fun. Played it a ton tonight.

It's fun but I agree that it feels a little slow at times. Make it 4v4 and bump up the base movement speed a bit.

They should bring it back with different characters from time to time. Imagine Pharah Ball and Winston Ball.
I want Reinhardt air hockey! =D

LucioBall is just plain boring. I think it would have been better if they made it a volleyball game instead. And have his push shot set to unlimited. The second the ball touches the floor you win/lose a point. First to 11 or whatever.
I got that Reaper BMX spray in my free loot box. Amazingly that's the ONLY Reaper spray I've unlocked and I'm at rank 59. Pretty funny.
The game has been a broken mess for me since this update. A few games last night my character just wouldn't properly load in. I couldn't see my weapon and the profile picture in the bottom left was just a plain white square. And kill cams were just a black screen. Not a very fun experience at all.

Stun + fth can kill Tracer, Genji and Reaper so he's back to being an easy counter to those but he's still worse overall because of the range nerf. But definitely more balanced now. Maybe still a tad too good so I wouldn't be shocked if he saw another slight nerf. But I hope they keep him as it is, he has seen enough changes.
One thing I didn't like about the range nerf on consoles is that it makes Pharah even harder to kill.
I wish Lucio could gind rails. I know they're destructible and it wouldn't have that great of a purpose
but it would just feel good

I don't like it. Not at all.

Five straight losses in ranked. Super frustrating. I'm playing well enough individually, two separate games with four gold medals, but it just seems I'm always stuck on a team with people that still don't fundamentally understand the game. Or they just quit after one round in King of the Hill.
Well, that's the last time I play alone. Lesson learned.

I started up the game for the first time in weeks, and I already got the Lucio Olympics HI from the free loot box!

Oh, and there's another thing too. I haven't gotten any of the new skins in my lootboxes. Killng me, smalls.

I would have just stuck with the default even if that was all I had when I unlocked Zarya's Industrial skin. I've been using Arctic nearly since launch, and that won't change until I get one of her olympic skins.

Got a legendary Olympic Zarya skin! I'm not sure how common they are though, I got mine on the gift box.
And typing Metal Gear Rising song lyrics during a Genji Play of the game never gets old to me.

I got a Genji ult PotG that ended with a shot of his butt. I think I should retire.
Yeah her olympic skins are solid. Not hypercute but they have good weapon design and are solid overall. Before this I think her best one was the black epic one.
Now there are no reason to run legendaries for genji or mccree. American and Japan skins are so superior...not hard to be better than Legendary Genji skins tho.

I still really like Sparrow and Vigilante, although I haven't had a close look at McCree's new skin.
You knew it was random.

the flag completely ruins the tracer skin. don't really want it now tbh
FTFY.
I actually dont think it. Just an obvious joke.
She is actually very good on good hands but the skill ceiling is too high. She is way harder than any other character to use and is not even close.
I was watching the other day one of the EnvyUs guys using her on stream and was PogChamping all the time.

Bought 11 lootboxes.
Only decent one was a junkrat highlight.
That's enough from me.

Man I had some fucking tight goals in the new mode. It's pretty fun.

Aargh! Just got a 20 killstreak on Dorado, but the 20th came a split second after we got the payload to the last point. Apparently that doesn't unlock the achievement despite "20 player kill streak" popping up in big blue letters.
Never going to get that achievement. Never.
On a positive note though, I'm on a bit of a winning run in competitive.

can you earn XP to get the new loot boxes in the lucioball?
Yes. Someone should do the math what's more effective because game duration for Lucioball is shorter so you might actually be even better off due to game completion / medal / win bonus. Don't know if the game time xp is linear though.

I agree with this.
Ana has to work so much harder to achieve what other healers do really easily, and the player has to be good to achieve it.
Plus, unlike other heroes, her ult is super reliant on the player you target - if the boosted player can't make use of it, it's all a waste.

Am I the only one experiencing the game spiking in VRM during this update?
Got some weird bugs like voices and sound not coming out properly.

Me and two friends had a Lucioball game last for ages last night because we were too good. We kept scoring against the other side and you get the replay every time and the count down etc so it can take a loooong time if you've got a good team against a bad team.
Anyway, considering how much they hyped these "summer skins" it's pretty disappointing that we got almost nothing in the end.
Play Torbjorn for a while.
I mean they didn't really hype them. They just said skins were in the pipeline and coming. The fanbase did all the hyping.

Yeah, I think I got that achievement that way, during an epic defense on Hanamura where the enemy just kept the conga line of death into Objective B going. Sooooo many armor packs on that objective by the time it was over.
Probably just to hide her butt

Yeah. Although I'm pretty shit with him in all honesty. I think Symmetra would be my best bet. Got a few 15s with her.

I hope that with the next content patch it will be coin based items, it would be very annoying if all cosmetics going forward were loot box only tbh
