Maybe you were 501 and the 500th player lost while you were ingame?

I'm jealous of those D.Va stats.

Getting behind a Bastion Reinhardt combo with a pulse bomb ready is a great feeling.

Man, this is interesting actually, because I feel like my numbers aren't too far off but my DVa is in the lowly top 50% in PC.

Though I have not played her as much in ranked.
Well, at least I don't feel too bad about my own win rate. lol

I'm terrible, aren't I?
Honestly I feel like if Gods was more comfortable with his supports/flex he might be better. The team looks crazy not confident in all of their engages. When they have a fight actually start off decently they do okay, but they're never on the same page to start the fight. If they get engaged on, they just fucking collapse while they're support/flex are standing around and Gods is out getting murdered on frontline.
Thanks. Think I need to play more compettive mode instead of quick play.

Similar stats but rank is lower so should probably play more and find a team to play with.

Most people have about a 50% win rate, so no, you are not terrible.

Man, I don't know what I have to do in competitive anymore. I started the weekend at 62 and now I'm down to 56. It's like you're expected to carry the entire game on your shoulders to be allowed to move back up. Doesn't matter if you get 3 or 4 golds in a match, you're still heading down.
We sharin' D.va stats?

New D.va is some of the most fun I've had with any character in the game since launch.

Went from 60 to 55, the backslide is real.
And yeah my mindset right now is to try and carry harder. I don't know what else to do.

So happy to have OW tournies to watch on the weekends. Makes for great idle watching/entertainment.

I really mean it when I say that the average Competitive game is of no better quality than the average Quickplay game. Maybe if you grind your way into the 60s it gets better, but even in the 50s where I've been it's just a different level of shit with a whole pile of extra stress.
And sometimes I just want to get headshots with Hanzo, man, and that should be okay.

You're right; it's even worse.
To the people playing Zarya stupidly well, I just want to say you are cunts. Melting my entire team was funny the first time, not so much the fourth. Like, jesus christ. Stop. Please.
Today was horrible
I ended up getting rank 54 last night, my highest yet!
Today was just going down to 51 D:
But then I crawled my way back to 54
At which point the Overwatch just kicked me in the balls, and in merely 3 matches, it smacked me right down to 52 again. D:
I'm gonna stop for today. I'm afraid if I play anymore, it's going to get really made and put me down in the 40's, just to teach me a lesson.

-Don't have to deal with hero stacking
-Players generally play the point a lot more and "group up" better
-you will never be stuck with a team of 3 Genjis on defense
-teams are generally balanced around the meta, we usually get 2 dps, 2 tanks, 2 healers
I can't really find any negatives other then maybe there being more stress do to it being more important, but man, isn't that stress and the eventual struggle to win part of why we enjoy competition?
I never play her like a sniper, and when I do teammates accidentally step in front of me without fail. Now when other people do you never know if its a support player trying out the new hotness of a Widow-kiddie trying to play the other sniper.

I Sound Barrier a Reaper, who then dies 1v2 to a Reinhardt as I have my healing boost up.

A D.Va and Reinhardt couple with gold weapons just carried my group so hard. O.O We were spawn camping the other team for 3 rounds of Nepal...
Placement matches after KOTH bug was fixed and with a group -> start in high 50s/mid 60s.

You guys sound like you're having great games.
POTGs you get where you die are the best kind. I got a Junkrat one last night on Hanamura where I riptired to kill immediately kill 4 people, including myself. Got some kudos on it from the other team to boot.

Solo queue competitive is the most miserable experience possible, short of Dota2 solo ranked.
I'm still boggling at a sound-barriered Reaper who's also being amp healed 2v1 against a Reinhard dying and then trying to pass it off as the Lucio's fault

my D.Va stats are awful, but I take pride in the fact that I played her before she was kewl.

Just wanted to say it feels good to the bottom of my heart to see you playing ranked. I know you felt forced into it due to hero stacking
Try hard not to worry bout the rank # you are at if you can help it. Most of us dont care if you're rank 80 or rank 10. Just keep having fun and squeeze every ounce out of it
I still havent played ranked yet myself but I think I'd like to try it soon for same reasons you have (escape hero stacking).
