No, you just get it when you get it. No rhyme or reason as to when you get it.

Guess I'll just have to keep at it then.
Thanks for answering all the questions though.
Attack Symmetra is lots of fun, love setting her tele up behind enemy lines and surprising them. This seems like it should be a viable strat but she's so weak it doesn't see use. Don't worry, I only do this in quick play 
I think a good buff for her is to literally make her Anti-Zenyatta. Give her shields more utility, rather than just +25 regenerative health, make them reduce the damage your allies take by half. And since they're not really any abilities that are generally used solely to remove debuffs, I'd like to see her shields get rid status effects like Discord, Ana's heal denial, and Widow's poison, etc. Give her cooldown in between shields so it isn't as daunting as it sounds, and just completely scrap the idea of what her shields do now. Surely that would make her viable, and now she wouldn't just be a niche pseudo-support hero.
I would also like to see her damage or range increased, a speedier alt fire, and a more durable teleporter.

she also lacks mobility, which makes it super hard. :/ It's good times, tho. I love doing it on Anubis + Volskaya. I've done it tho, w/ great success. Attack Torb was also awesome, but now that his turret is poop once peeps know you're there, unless you have a Molten Core o pop you're DONE. -__-
i feel like the best way to 'buff' Symm would be to make all 6 of her turrets instantly available, perhaps even make 'em point & plant (one button, no need for 2).
yup, do this all the time. xD

Fun weekend. Dropped like 4 ranks in Competitive. Been giving Zarya a try in Quick and now love her.

Man, flicking is so weird.
Like, I'm pretty sure I miss 70% of my flick shots but then I nail that jumping genji and I'm like "My subconscious is weeeeeird"

POTG should never go to the losing team.
Why has it taken Blizzard months to realize this?

You literally do a flick motion with your mouse to very quickly snap the cursor to your target and instantly shoot.

Because the POTG is supposed to be game changing thing and who cares if the losing team gets a 5 man when they lost anyways and it didn't matter in the long run. At least a winning team play means something in the long run.
I don't see why they shouldn't be rewarded for pressing Q better than the winning team.
I play basically everything. I prefer being Tracer / D.Va / Lucio, but I'm also Pharah, Mei and Bastion. Whatever it seems like the team needs I'm there.

I don't get what happened to them, they went from being a top 5 team to total garbage since they joined Shaq.
Every time NRG buys a team, they suddenly become completely awful. Shaq is still eating karma for Kazaam.
(his LCS team lost their spot this weekend too)
Just discussing how to get top 500 here and see this lmao
At least I got top 100 Lucio to fall back on I guess... 😭
I won three games in a row and got to rank 74.95 and that's when I finally broke in. Yeah, it's like everyone is saying. It's necessary to keep that win / loss ratio up there.

What is it with NRG that makes teams terrible?
What's your win/loss ratio?
congrats. gonna add you just to have a top 500 emblem in my list, lol
Kazaam curse, there really is no other explanation.
I agree, it's kinda awkward waiting for your turrets to charge up when you basically have enough time to get all 6 turrets placed seconds after the match starts. For the sake of convenience, this seems like a no-brainer.
I think she needs a little more revamp though, I really like the shield thing I came up with, and want her to be a support that protects allies in ways other than healing.
Haha, added.
Yeah sure. Send an invite to Roubjon.
Also my winrate isn't crazy or anything, it's only 53%. I've just definitely been improving as time goes on.
I deleted you for making your group an exclusive club to only people you deemed worthy enough to play with you.
Do you have a link to your masteroverwatch/overbuff.
Kinda wanna look at your stats for Dva and Lucio if you don't mind.
My w/l is 61.4% but I've only played 50 games or so. Probably not large enough sample size yet.

Ehhh, can't say I agree. If someone on the other team had a truly impressive play, their eventual loss doesn't make it any less impressive.
Seagull might want to consider focusing of streaming. I don't see him and the team winning any tournaments. Every other team has stepped up their game too much

At the very least, you shouldn't get PotG if the entire other team got revived right after.

I agree, Dude makes way more money streaming and it's painfully obvious his friends are miles worse than other players.
optimus8936

Yeah if he wasn't a pro player, he could make even more money streaming, and he might not take the game as seriously and actually play in 6 queues.
I feel like Gods and Seagull are the only good players in their team.

Eh, Gods is too inconsistent to be considered a strong link for them. If he was actually consistent, he could be really good, but otherwise, meh.
I disagree, he played very well the last few matches, especially when he's on McCree, those ults tho
it's the other 3 that drag the team down imo.

More often than not Gods is either deleted from existence early on or just ineffective. Dude has never recovered from the Widow nerf.
The best other player on the team IMO is Milo but he gets left for dead as a Rein so many times it isn't even funny. Not to mention their revolving door at support and Enigma doing WTF Enigma mistakes at times.
Gods did nothing the last 2 matches just now.

You're so good that the game already knew the outcome.
