Join a party to play a match on Xbox one.

Get are ass kicked in it and lose 1 to zip. They kick me from the party but call me a scrub.

Aight I just had 4 golds and a bronze as zenyatta

Hate competitive on the weekend

 

[Laputa_94]

Yeah it was cool, so many KOTH. Once again I was just 1 victory away from diamond, shame

Why did you guys quit chat?

We went to in game chat. Due to LRGs lag.

 

[duckroll]

So we're getting Sombra and MVM in Overwatch soon? Maybe time to jump back in...

 

[dhlt25]

wow you get penalty for leaving after the score is announced? fuck off blizzard

 

[Redmoon]

Spent the last 2 or so hours playing the brawl. I know for certain now(took this long) my go to tank hero would be D.Va after tonight, but to me she feels lacking in power and squishy. Guess I'm playing her wrong or something.

Sucks. As of right now tanks are where the void lies in me :<

Ok, might have something turned off in-game because I stopped hearing you guys.

Squishiest tank next to Roadhog.

 

[UltimaPooh]

Good games guys. Hate to end on a loss but it's good to keep most of our progress. Back above 3300, feels good.

Yeah good games!

 

[Antiwhippy]

Dva gets countered super hard nowadays. Too many zaryas. :<

Like the only way I'd play dva is if I know the zarya isn't very good, because if not, literally unplayable.

D.Va is my favorite and best tank, but I am trying to my best to drop her for Zarya. D.Va's self destruct can be so clutch, but man, Zarya single handily can win games.

She covers bad teammates, protects support, can team wipe with little help, and is a counter to many.

 

[AnotherNils]

So close to platinum solo queue. Rocketed 150 points this afternoon. Then tonight: L W L W L W L W L L. Makes you feel like matchmaking is fucking with you (In two instances, it was – my teammates from a win were on the other team and I lost).

yup her ult is just soo good at facilitating many wombo combo's.

 

[Wyndstryker]

Back in S1, I played Rein a bit but wasn't that good.

Played him again, and during a comp and everything just seemed better. Sure his kit isn't anything fancy but when they say gamesense is huge for a Rein, I believe it. Able to utilize him far better then before even though I rarely played him recently.

Maybe I should start working on my Rein. Actually there's quite a few chars I want to work on now.

 

[KyleCross]

Can I pay someone to hit me across the head just hard enough to knock me out till Tuesday afternoon? I ain't got any plans.

I want $20 worth of Halloween crates delivered at my door once the update hits. PM a picture and your address.

 

[march carax]

Man it's so great be winning for Platinum (going from Gold) 2-1 in Illos and then a teammate leaves and 6 vs 5 they fight back and win us 2-3 with lots of struggle from our part....Really hope Blizzard destroys quitters. Such bullshit ugh

 

[Fancolors]

Huh, apparently Roadhog's hook doesn't put every character in the same place.

This explain why I always survive his hook when I'm playing Ana.

They are all standing at different distances and moving. I need controlled data before we can conclude anything.

 

[Papercuts]

Ana has an annoyingly thin hitbox too, even if she's close I find she survives a lot of shots nobody else with her HP would.

 

[Clydefrog]

Just had a game as Reaper on Lijiang where I got 31K damage and 58 eliminations! yay!

 

[Animator]

She has the hardest to hit hitbox in the whole game hands down. She makes tracer feel like roadhog.

 

[MGrant]

Huh, apparently Roadhog's hook doesn't put every character in the same place.

This explain why I always survive his hook when I'm playing Ana.

It is still a mystery how the hook decides to bring certain characters in and how much damage they will get from the left click. So far for me it's been like:

Mercy, Lucio, Zenyatta, Symmetra, Hanzo, Widow, Tracer, Junkrat: Very close, almost always an instakill
McCree, Pharah, Genji: Not as close, sometimes they live.
Ana, Reaper, Soldier, Torbjorn: about 2 meters away, 50% chance they live
Mei: About 3 meters away, almost never dies unless at half health

 

[darklin0]

I don't know how I missed it but I just saw that Sombra picture that leaked or whatever. Is it real?

If yes, an smg? RIP my interest in playing her. ]:

 

[Danj]

Junkrat: Very close, almost always an instakill

I've found that you can knock Roadhog back with a grenade and survive being hooked as Junkrat. Not always, but reasonably frequently.

 

[Blizzard]

I think I'd like this brawl more, but like last time it has some really bizarre non-randomness going on.

One game, the enemy team had 8 pharahs in a relatively short KOTH round, 2-3 at a time. 2-3 winstons at a time. 3 Anas + 3 Zaryas. 4 Lucios followed by 3 Mercys on my team in short order. I could see some unusual things being random (I die as Tracer, respawn as Tracer), but the number of people getting stacked champs is crazy.

 

[LiK]

Sombra being leaked after all the ARG crap is kinda hilarious to me.

 

[Azoor]

Sombra being leaked after all the ARG crap is kinda hilarious to me.

This is a textbook example of how NOT to do an ARG, no ARG should take THAT long.

 

[Jellie]

First game after my initial 10 placements and I got 50 points but did nothing much...

 

[darklin0]

Are you on a win streak? If not, how about you give me some of that SR.

 

[LonelyGreyWolf]

Someone remind me what ARG stands for.

EDIT: No one?

 

[saher]

So i got suspended from competitive for 19 hours because my internet disconnected...um wtf?

 

[Jellie]

Nah no streaks. Just won and got two sr. The other team left though. Thought that if the other team leaves it doesn't affect sr gain

 

[KiraFA37]

Where do you got placed?

 

[Jellie]

Where do you got placed?

2564.
Just got 34 for a win. Getting much more points than I ever did on ps4.

 

[darklin0]

I am straight up Jellie of your SR gain. I only ever get that high for Attack classes or on streaks.

 

[Antiwhippy]

Alt right game.

Spoiler

Augmented reality game.

 

[Data West]

I need Sombra on the PTR so I can hop into an all Sombra game and say we're all 1337 now

 

[Garrett Hawke]

I'm sooo interested to see how she plays. the gun suggests somewhere between Tracer and soldier 76 in terms of firing mechanism and range

 

[NeoRaider]

I want Sombra to be able to send drones that are attacking opposite team.
Also i hope that her Ultimate is amazing.

 

[Rize_21]

I don't know how I missed it but I just saw that Sombra picture that leaked or whatever. Is it real?

If yes, an smg? RIP my interest in playing her. ]:

Can't tell til tuesday but if confirmed, we had her silhouette known since day one, which was great imo, from that piece of newspaper in Dorado to the sky code song, yeah...that ARG had its moment of fun in the end.

 

[Danj]

I'm live again http://twitch.tv/danj2k if someone wants to see me carry on sucking at Reaper.

EDIT: ok I'm lucio for this one game as I wasn't fast enough on the selection

Okay I only watch 2 minutes but why are you randomly booping as Lucio? Thats a close range ability to create some distance or beep them to their death. Besides it takes 4 ammo to use.

 

[Newtype-001]

The dream is sombra is such a good dps she finally knocks out tracer or mccree

 

[Data West]

The dream is that Sombra isn't another flanker

because people don't need even more encouragement to play flankers. Another anti-flanker would be nice since McCree's the only real one.

 

[darklin0]

With an SMG?

It is gonna be High Noon every day, every minute, every second. Ain't no stoppin' mah boy.

 

[Danj]

As you may have noticed there are a bunch of characters that I haven't normally played, that are actually the characters I should be playing. All my favourite characters are F tier

 

[Garrett Hawke]

You think that stops people from trying to play McCree as a flanker?

 

[Blues1990]

Thing is, I really love the structure of comp.
I jus can't play with multiple hero picks anymore after comp.

Think I'll take your advice and stick with brawl on weekends.

When it comes to pulling off goofy, funny tactics (the Tri-nhardt technique never gets old), that's why I love playing Quick Play the most. Quick Play is great when I can do what I want without people yelling at me for selecting Symmetra or Soldier 76.

She has the hardest to hit hitbox in the whole game hands down. She makes Tracer feel like Roadhog.

I know Tracer has a big butt, but come on man.

 

[Data West]

You think that stops people from trying to play McCree as a flanker?

Well, that's just because McCree has been as good as Genji since he last got buffed where as Genji got nerfed and McCree didn't. McCree is either the best hero ever or the worst hero ever. Right now, he is definitely the best DPS ever.


He needs to be removed from the game, honestly. He's the most imbalanced hero I've ever seen in a class based game. I don't mean just because he's OP now. I mean because his viability has been all over the place with every balance change and every time he's good at one thing, he removes several heroes viability and essentially replaces them. If he isn't the absolute best, there's never a reason to bring him. Him and 76 need to have an update where they're merged into one character.

 

[Jellie]

I am straight up Jellie of your SR gain. I only ever get that high for Attack classes or on streaks.

Well I lost 30 the game after then gained 29 and decided to come off. Dunno why its so volatile. Usually its15-20.
