Was it ever proven that the game tries to put you in a 1:1 win/loss ratio, because this losing streak is just.... agh, I get people can have bad days, but a whole week?

Yes. Thank god.
You don't have to 180 from center, you can lift and 180 from the edge of your mousepad. If you dont want to do that then you need a bigger mousepad.
Thank you.
Alrighty then, just doubled my reward points, finally Platinum.

It tries to match you with and against players of equal skill, so the result would naturally be about a 50% winrate for most players, although people of really high skill levels can have winrates closer to 60-70%.
For at least my first 20 or so comp games, I managed around 60%. Can't say how I did it though.
I use 400DPI at 10 (with 40 scope sens for scopes on ana/widow). All sensitivities are the same for every character. I'm also running an os mouse fix, whether or not this effects the game, i dont know, I just have it anyway.
Maybe get a larger mouse area/pad and lower your sens by 1 at least and see how it goes? Larger mouse area can do wonders. It did for me.
Anyway, for me, it takes like ~7 inches to do a 180, and I have ~16 inches of comfortable moving space left to right, up to down. I find this is a good balance between sensitivity speed, and accuracy for a game like overwatch (i want to be accurate with the dps, but still have a good sensitivity that can keep up with the games pace.)
Compare that to what I used to run with csgo where it took almost the whole 16" area to do a 180
My mouse mat gives me about 5.5 inches either side. I can't really increase this because of my set up. I just lack the physical space.
I might try lowering my settings by 0.25 and see how it feels after a couple more sessions.
But it seems like my current set up is on the lower side according to the responses lol. I dont know if that's good or bad as this is my first M+K experience for FPS.
3200dpi?? That sounds crazy. You probably do 720 no scopes with Widow

I'm still not getting anything good from the Halloween Boxes, best has been the Tombstone Bastion skin.
I've been teetering on the 51% win rate, between losing consistently and getting jack shit out of the +20 Halloween boxes I've grinded for, it's been a discouraging week for me to play.
Edit: Well.... I guess my Ana's hero rank is okay, it was in the mid 30% a few days ago, so at least it's a sign that I'm improving with her.
Even if my SR has been jumping everywhere:

Maybe I should go play Battlefield 1 when that comes out

I think that i am little scared. XD
Ana and Zen are bad picks in general if they are being used as DPS.

when you're tired of healing a shitty teamI pimped out Mercy's staff.
Easier to go full politruk when no need to swap weapons.

This reminds me of Doom 3 BFG when they stuck the flashlight into the gun lol.
How to spot someone who has been carried into Diamond?
Instalock Widowmaker when in Att on Hanamura. Doesn't get single kill during 4min that is given to attack 1st point. At no point he switches to hero that would benefit team or he would get something done with.
Of did I mention he was in 2stack and his friend instalocked Bastion as offensive option?
We got stomped so hard it wasn't even funny. Then stomped again as defender.

Or a person who switches to Winston when the enemy has a Reaper. I always feel like their though process is, "Let me feed their ults some more."
This game has bad matchmaking. I keep getting paired up with people who are really bad and don't know what they're doing. My last game yesterday I had silver damage as Reinhardt on Numbani. What's even worse is that I lose 40 points for these games too.
Down from 3920 to 3738. RIP rank.

... what are they testing with Pharah on the PTR?
I never really heard complaints about her.
They need to have a big red box with white letters popup, like the leaver warnings, every time you start the PTR with the message "These changes are not final and probably will not go live unchanged" in all caps
People don't read pins and whatnot :/
Now THAT is a buff.

So...when does the season end? I really wanna get a golden gun for my ButterCree.
Nov 1
Okay, that's a buff for me, because my frustrations with Pharah are definitely mostly people who are basically dead not dying from splash damage, so i hope that stays.

Yeah, but isn't there a down time between seasons?
Yeah but it's supposed to be a lot less this time.

I'd waaaaaaay rather have the knockback than that tiny amount more splash damage.

Oh ok, hopefully it's not to long.
Hit level 100 earlier as well. Maybe I can get most of the halloween swag before the event ends.
