FUCK Volskaya.

Hardly my least favorite map. That would have to be Lijiang Tower or Hanamura.

 

[LiK]

i haven't seen Lijiang in Comp at all in S2.

 

[clockworkinyou]

The only good maps are Hollywood and Lijiang.

Correctamundo.

Lijiang and Hanamura are dog shit unless every person on your team knows what they're doing.

 

[LiK]

for Hanamura and Volksya, as Attack I would always try to get to the point asap so it fucks up the Defense. they would get distracted and if my teammates are smart, they would rush in to take them out while they gun for me. Been working well this season even with randoms and partial groups.

 

[Satch]

What the fuck, i used Nano Boost on my dva literallt standing RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME and it went through her and hit my Lucio

im abandoning this character

Well, yeah. That's the biggest mistake they can make, and the easiest to bait them into. If you can distract a few of them and get them to chase you, then it leaves the point open. Doesn't even matter if you die at that point.

Lemme ask you guys if you would consider this cheap:

I was playing D.Va near my team spawn point today when my mech got destroyed, and I wasn't anywhere near a full ultimate. So I went back in the spawn room, swapped characters, then swapped back to D.Va. Mech is back!

Had something similar earlier. Was aiming for a roadhog but it went to the Zen behind him.

The Zen still put in the work lol.

I see no problem with it personally. Sure it'll clear any ult charge but if you didn't have any left, why not.

whatever works.

 

[Antiwhippy]

No, but you do lose any ult charge you built for self-destruct.

 

[Freezasaurus]

I was only up to like 10%. Really didn't make a difference.

 

[Antiwhippy]

That's fine then.

I've suicided myself after taking point A sometimes just to get the meka quicker.

 

[Shouta]

First comp match of S2 for me and the first thing I learn is that I need to stay DPS when I'm gold in everything, even if we lose the first round, lol.

 

[Freezasaurus]

D.Va is actually a lot better after that buff. I was hoping they increased her damage, but the defense matrix buff is a lot better than I was expecting.

 

[Antiwhippy]

She is, but she's still held back by zarya for a) being a better tank and b) destroying dva herself.

 

[Pachimari]

How long is a season?

 

[Nocturnowl]

After an agonising day of consistent support woes I gave my rarely used Pharah a shake on my last game and proceeded to go on a murderous killing frenzy the likes of which I've only matched in the past as Reaper.
Almost made up for it, almost.

For once I'm celebrating the difficulty of shooting her out the skies on console.

 

[Plywood]

So now that amomentincrime.com reached 23% the Sombra ARG community is apparently going bonkers.

 

[xaosslug]

i haven't seen Lijiang in Comp at all in S2.

lucky! @__@ Been freaking living at Lijiang, Ilios (in a game rn), and Nepal wtf.

 

[Tyrant Rave]

so we can't all agree and we hate all the maps, got it

We can all agree that Hollywood is the best one

Hybrid is the best game mode period tbh

 

[Antiwhippy]

I like hybrid solely because i can make sure the other team doesn't even move the cart when i play mei.

 

[Freezasaurus]

I agree with Anime Rave on this one.

It's gonna hit 24% soon. The road to Blizzcon continues.

Lies, Eichenwalde just for the music.

 

[Nocturnowl]

Chalk me down for a spot on team hybrid.

 

[LiK]

i have to admit that i don't like the new map.

 

[Vire]

lol at literally every map being listed the worst.

Honamura is easily the worst. Whoever constructed the Dojo area on assault needs to be sent into the sun.

 

[AngryMoth]

Playing in a 5 stack for the first time tonight and it's kind of like a different game. Had some crazy intense team fights the likes of which I've never seen in solo queue

 

[Vault Dweller 111]

Just had what felt like one of my very few good games today and we still got crushed. I can't buy a damn win today. Ended yesterday at 3016 now sitting at 2870.

Time to take a break.

It's such a good spot for blizzard kills though.

If they even get there...

 

[Tyrant Rave]

Eichenwalde is REALLY good but I don't have enough time with it to call it my favorite yet

 

[LiK]

good news, we can still play together

 

[Slurmer]

I uninstalled the game on ps4 today after a long losing streak going solo queue. See you all on PC soon.

This was me last night. Loss after loss, ended up having a few victories towards the end of the night but I ended up about a hundred ranks lower than I started regardless.

3 months

Attack side has to be on fucking point with their performance or defense will slaughter them into first choke again and again, until round is over.

Solo queue on pc is fun too. Went from 53 to 25 solo queue last season... Never solo queuing again.

 

[katsubento]

Been playing the new map a lot. I like it.

 

[Vire]

The only point I don't like in the new map is Checkpoint 3. It so heavily favors the defense and Bastion it's absurd.

Checkpoint 2 though is the best area in all of Overwatch.

 

[Plywood]

Fuck Watchpoint Gibraltar

 

[LucidMomentum]

Solo queue on pc is fun too. Went from 53 to 25 solo queue last season... Never solo queuing again.

Started at 2400, hit 2470 peak.

Now at 2302. I love solo queue.

 

[Vire]

Fuck Watchpoint Gibraltar

Why? It's a really balanced map.

 

[ZangBa]

I love Ana, but it's like, if I'm near the payload with Reinhardt and D'va, and Hanzo is 20 miles away out in Egypt somewhere, out of LOS and spamming for heals, it's aggravating. I mean, I want to heal him, but come on. And quit fucking jumping Genji, there's no one even here, WTF. My analogs are all tore up because of this game and you aren't helping. Low tier DS4 sticks.

 

[ramyeon]

Started at 2400, hit 2470 peak.

To be fair that's not a very large drop though, you can easily make it back to where you were with a short win streak.

 

[DevilDog]

Hate needs no justifications.

 

[Kito]

Can ping spikes be Blizzard server issues or is the fault at my end?

My ping is 30-40ms in game, but today and yesterday it's been really unstable, spiking to 500+...

 

[Mik317]

fuck Hollywood

Spoiler

pure salt reasons...i am pretty sure I have never won on it.

 

[Ser Booty]

Man, I really wish Pharah was in the meta just because having one on my team as Mercy makes games so much more fun, and escaping fuckboi Genji's and Reaper's so much easier.

Could be routing issue, some spot between your PC and Blizz server getting hammered. So either it's issue somewhere on the route or more likely you than Blizzard

It doesn't ever feel that way.
