Love showing people the terror that is known as Harambe. Team was having trouble with a Hanzo and Mercy, I swapped off and just chased them to the ends of the earth over and over.

Man, the thing that actually stood out to me was the reaper barely hittng you when he came in shooting.
That's diamond?

What a total disgrace of a human being, that guy is disgusting. Hearing something like this during a game would totally ruin my mood to play that match, that's why I have voice chat turned off and also changed my PSN messages settings to only allow friends to send me something.

Haha, NV dropping a map to conbox.
Liz clutched the hell out of that one on tracer. NV punished for fucking around too much on attack. Coco on lucio, harryhook on tracer and taimou on widow was just a bit too arrogant.

Surviving as Winston is all about positioning and effectively managing his staggered cooldowns. Always try to estimate how much damage you're jumping into and make sure that your bubble will last the 6 seconds it takes to refresh your cooldown and jump out. The bubble only has 600 health, so it's going to get focused through immediately if you dive straight into the center of the enemy when no one else on your team has engaged. Instead, try to jump in on backline healers, elevated range characters (Soldier, McCree, Hanzo), and any lone players who are trickling in from spawn.
When your bubble does start going down and you jump out, keep in mind that your jump will refresh long before your bubble does. It can be tempting to jump right back in after six seconds, but that leaves the enemy team with 7+ seconds to shoot at your enormous hitbox for free and you'll probably just die. Use that jump to go find a healthpack instead and then push in when your bubble's back.
Lastly, avoid Reaper and Roadhog like the plague and only push in on Zenyatta if you're confident you can approach and place your bubble before he discords you.
Switch Hanzo with Junkrat and that's every game I play, the only difference is that Hanzo can be good. I can't escape from the useless Junkrat, even on attack.
If they'd remove the ingame medals I wouldn't have to deal with this bullshit.

I started using Symmetra way more just because I got her Halloween costume and ended up basically dominating on Gibraltar with her turrets. Other team could barely get to the payload.

I'm stuck at 2500 and I don't hear anyone on a mic. XBO.
That's probably a blessing though, right? Right?

How the hell does a guy like that get Diamond ranked?

My McCree play is gettin really good.
What would you guys consider a good accuracy % for him on console. Right now I'm at 40%.
I know my crit accuracy is bad, it was 3% lulz...but in the last few games I've brought it up to 6%.
Anybody really good with him on console that could share some tips?

man, that's lame. not worth it. the completionist in me wants it but it's Bastion whom I'll rarely play once I get his quad kill trophy.
They should remove party chats from ranked. The only time I've seen this happen was back in the S&D days in CoD4 preventing you from talking in a party.

Just got in an argument with a level 500 who thinks playing Symmetra and Mei is more useful than healing for the team because he made me swap from Reinhardt.
So in response to losing the argument he leaves the team chat and just sits at the spawn door with Symmetra lol.
I wonder what ancient diety I have pissed off to make ranked such a hellhole

Are you only doing solo? Seems like it's not worth it.

This is the worst. Can confirm.

Yeah in solo on average I atleast gain as much as I lose on a loss, but usually its less. (Like 30ish for a win, and like 25-30 for a loss).
When I group up I'm almost always losing more than I gain

Yesterday I saw a box pop with an epic and a legendary in it.
It was my third copy of the Soldier Thriller skin, and McCree's gambler. I'm the world's worst McCree.
I figured out how to wall by watching Seagull.
Also Zen is a beast yeah. I can't count how many times I've been dived on, them thinking I was a free kill, only to 1v1 them handily.
I think a lot of people are still used to when Zen had 150HP, but he's a real threat with the 50HP buff.

My score today has been a rollercoaster. Started at 3500, got to 3650, fell to 3400, and now I'm back at 3530

I'm keeping my expectations and hype in check this time around. That countdown into another countdown definitely turned me off of the whole Sombra ARG in general.

That timer started the first week of the semester, and Fall Break/midterms just ended, god damn. Without a single thing released in between. Remember the internet trying to solve all those clues? Seems like so long ago. Truly an all time awful ARG.

The ARG was great until they started the second countdown. Then it went to shit.
I'm still hyped for Sombra though, no matter what.

The idea is really cool, and would fit with the supposed hacker theme.
It was just really badly paced. If they had started it all like a couple of weeks ago it would have been perfect.
Hopefully, they won't pull off another ARG for the next hero, and will instead just do a similar reveal to that of Ana.

That sounds like my time in competitive - just 1000 points lower.
About how much do you win/lose in SR per match? I just can't get a feel for how my own individual performance influences how much rating I go up or down. Like last night I had what I felt was an awesome match as Zarya, and yet I only went up 18 SR which seemed low, especially since I was on a winning streak and playing a match where the average SR was even.
Blizzard was too busy coming up with an awesome Halloween event to prepare a decent ARG. The entire thing reeks of "well the character was sort of leaked and everyone is hyped about her so we should probably do something, I guess."

GGs to blues, though I kinda flatlined at the end there. Sometimes I shouldn't play so late haha.
Still, I know I'm having a good game when I can constantly snipe down pharahs as mei.
I need to concentrate more when I'm playing zen though, I really shouldn't let tracers and genjis shut me down this easily.

I don't think they will, if only due to how this one has been received.
I'm all in for thematic teasing/build-up for a reveal however. It's all about how they pace it. Plus it's nice to get the community involved.

I think it's safe to call the Sombra ARG a failure, in terms of overall reception. Anything they do in the future will probably be closer to Ana's reveal.

Sometimes this thread makes me feel bad for not using team chat in competitive, but then I think of the toxicity I likely avoid and I feel better about it.
All I need are just a few extra bits of dialogue in the wheel on console, like a "we're getting flanked!" message for all the times I can see the gosh darn Reaper coming but no one else does.
Alas no one can actually carry in Overwatch, you just put the team on your back, walk a step and then crumple under the weight.

Likewise, Whippy. It was a very solid session, even if the last couple of games went up in smoke.
I'm completely fine if they get the community involved in some fashion. But I just want something simple and to the point, you know?
All I want is the "We need to push!" message. Sick of some players just standing around and not pushing into a point.

I dont know why PC has the option of doing that but consoles dont.
when you look at the point and do group or something it says lets attack the objective.

Especially when consoles is where that sort of thing is needed most, as there is no chat box to fall back on. We also don't have the "I Need Healing" change that becomes like a "Group Here" or however that works.

She is my biggest enemy when i am D.VA. Alone against her i can't do anything. She is basically melting me with her gun and only thing i can do is escape from her and ask for healing. Lmao
So yeah... nerf her!
Console is second-class citizen. So many things were missing until the console community let them know. Like when the Request Invite to Group message to the receiver didn't have an option for them to accept since it was a PC UI. Glad that was patched out.
