I'm pretty sure this behaviour qualifies as griefing, which has been added to the report submission. Dunno if reporting these players will get them punished tho.

Sorry, but I'm not going to be threatened into changing characters to accommodate some child who wants their own way for no apparent reason. I know it's not that serious but this kind of sounds like victim blaming, hahaha.
I filed it under griefing if that's what you mean? Can't remember all the reporting options.

I mean genji's body is all electronic so that's probably as intended.

I thought Genji could still attack during EMP? Swear I saw that when watching Overwatch competitive play last night.
By this logic sleep dart shouldn't work agains omnics and D.va's mech.

Yeah, you're totally in the right here.
Honestly, this kinda shit is why I eventually just gave up on competitive. The positive things that it brought to my life were not enough to make up for the bullshit. I completely understand why people want to play ranked, but I've got kids. I have enough stress in my life due to children - I don't need more.
EMP already completely destroys the Genji ult. Why are Blizzard constantly nerfing Genji? Give the guy a break
This is obviously a bug. I think I remember someone in my party having the same problem a couple of days ago.

Yeah that's what I meant. It's good that you can do that at least.
I wondered about that. Couldn't they re-build mondetta? I am sure his memory is in a server somewhere. It didn't have to be this dramatic.
Which is more important: Mondetta or the idea of Mondetta

You know what? Fuck 'em. Fuck all those useless tin cans who think they are people.
We should build a wall or something to keep them away from us.
Anyone from EU wants to play HotS later? I'm halfway through the 30 matches.
It happened to a friend a few days ago while we were playing 3v3.
Yep, me. I was using Sombra and couldn't even shoot.
1v1 is so stressful.
I absolutely dominated my opponent though, even though it was a bunch of heroes I never play.
Tracer, Roadhog, Zenyatta, Bastion, Reaper, Hanzo and Junkrat.
I barely touch any of those, except for Tracer, and I'm bad with her.
I wish it was just best of 3, it takes SO long just looking for your opponent.

It doesn't help when you get people that don't move at all and just wait for you.
I can play tonight after 2000h CET, I just want the Genji skin so 15 matches is all I need.
How quick can you go through each match? I read somewhere on the easiest mode maybe 5-6 minutes tops?
Put Versus A.I. on the beginner difficulty and rush one lane. You can ping there to make your AI teammates also assist you on the push.

5ish minutes if you're well coordinated, also depends on the map, but expect a match to average around 8-10 minutes.

This assumes a lot about Omnics, tbh. With artificial intelligence as we know it looking more and more limited compared to the sci-fi version, it's unlikely that their brains work just like regular computers. Even if you COULD back up his memory, it's entirely possible that the new body/brain you're sticking them in wouldn't process them the same way, and you'd end up with an entirely different person who just happens to have Mondetta's memories.
Can I join you guys? GMT, can be free from 8pm I think. I just need the 15 matches.
I tried it out last night, had no interest but for some reason they put a loot box as the reward for winning one.
I won but who the hell thought this was a good idea? Like, Winston vs Winston seems like it might as well just be a coin flip. Widow vs Widow hide and seek was so boring I almost alt-F4'd.
I pretty much have to wait for the right heroes like Zarya or Zenyatta to come up and I'm screwed if it's d-va, torbjorn, mei or other garbage like that. The only redeeming factor is that the other guy got to watch me double air rocket him with Pharah twice since it showed up as POTG.
3v3 was surprisingly fun though. I got all kills but 2 in all rounds as Soldier (I wasn't sure who to pick, they asked for a healer but it was too late to switch). I guess I read something about a Soldier buff recently so maybe that's why I was wrecking people.

Yease - thanks for the game this morning! Looking forward to playing again.
So I finally tried the HOTS thing. I never play online PC games so figuring out how to party up & join a game was embarrassingly complicated. I managed to find a team and we quickly won against beginner bots, but I was getting yelled at the whole time. No idea what I'm doing.
"Go mid bruh" <- I don't know what that means.

Was it during the enemy EMP? Man that's such a terrible bug. Just have to hope they sort it out before competitive S3.

I saw something similar in a competitive match. There was a group of three that threw a tantrum over our team comp (on Nepal) so one of them went Bastion and spent the last round in turret mode in spawn shooting basketballs. We lost of course then they blamed the rest of us. Against my better judgement I said it didn't help that they threw the game and one said I was the one that "threw " the game because I made an error as Ana. I think I nano'd one of them when they weren't ready or something.
It's frustrating as hell dealing with that level of lack of self awareness but instead of engaging them (which I should not have done) I now just report and block and move on.

Anyone else notice they sometimes get ejected in weird directions when playing D.Va since the patch?
You should probably know what "bot" and "top" mean too. look at the picture above, "top" is top, "bot" is bottom
just follow everyone else to finish those beginner AI games quickly, that's what they're trying to do.
sure, ill log into GAF around that time so we can group up. I still need to download the game lol

D.Va has a lot of weird bugs with hopping in and out of her mech this patch.
Bastion is an Omnic.
Oops, forgot about him because he's not like the other Omnics.

Rumor mill has Doomfist as an Omnic.

Thank you! For some reason I thought you "needed" to be in all three lanes. The interfaces & chat are confusing to an old man like me.
I don't play much D.Va but I have noticed I'm getting period black screens randomly mid-match, often during the prep time. I'm on PS4, not sure if it's my system or not but another person I party with sometimes has complained of the same thing.
Might be wrong, but I am pretty sure Ana addresses Bastion as female when she sleep darts her.
Doomfist definitely is an Omnic going by the Numbani poster.
That person is insane.

What a dick. At least give people a chance. Why give up and lose on purpose. He's just butthurt you didn't wanna switch when he asked. Symm is perfectly viable when played well. I've seen some insaley good Master Symms in Comp. That dude must masterbate to pro meta videos.
Alright, I've sent you a PM.
Yeah.
Ideally, yes, but on beginner you can even ignore the objective and just push together.

Finally got the Oni Genji skin. Goddamn that was boring. Please Blizzard, never lock an Overwatch skin behind Heroes of the Storm again. Thank you.
