lol, she's nothing to Mei real talk. Mei can single-handedly win matches in arcade, it's ridiculousness. And you don't even need to be that good w/ her. 250hp extra + reduced cooldown for iceblock make her nearly invincible.

Welp. Mei is the best. I am convinced of that now. Goodbye to my Bastion days.
mei's ult with the buff to its size already charges way too fast. no one has enough burst damage to kill her with her ice block basically on no cd in arcade mode.
if there's a zarya on the team, it's over. this mode should just be locked to mei and zarya only.

remember when people thought zarya was bad
i distinctly remember some posters in ot1 or 2 complaining that zarya was a useless pick LMAO

Eichenwalde just reminded me of something I wish this game had: More interactive maps.
Aside from pits, I kinda wish there were more elements that were hazardous, or moved, or both. On Eichenwalde, for example, I wish the the door getting rammed had a big knockback effect or something.

Good victories all around, we only lost two. Shame about the Eichenwalde game, wasn't expecting to lose that one. Also, it's a pain in the ass finding Sym teleporter in Dorado, especially when I can't have my TV volume loud enough.
And I totally meant to do that enviromental kill with Pharah in Gibraltar >_>... what a lame POTG lol.

I can't even go a single game without seeing her.
The closest thing to an Arcade cheese counter I've found is Symmetra but it doesnt work on Zarya.
But when Mei ice blocks since sentries have like zero cd i just slap like 4 turrets on the ground by the time she gets out of the iceblock she's getting instantly melted. The 1 v 1s with Ana are hilarious because I just throw sentrys all over the place while switching to M1 while she's tyring to sleep me so I know that the beams will be hitting her even if I get slept and she'll have to deal with it quickly.
It's juke city. Who knew Symmetra and Ana had hte most juke-heavy 1vs1

Really? When was this the case? I remember Zarya being an absolute monster from the start.

Zarya was secret good at the beginning, since there were other, wildly more broken heroes. Plus, nobody had gotten gud with her; she's probably one of the hardest characters to use really well.
She wasn't as straight forward as a class like McCree, Soldier, Reaper, Bastion, Reinhardt. She has to use her entire toolkit at the right times to be effective as they all play off each other.
I remember people at the beginning calling Winston and Zarya useless. But maybe people who played the beta already knew how good she was?

Anyone who experienced double winston back in the 0HL days would not be calling him useless.

and yet... >_>
Is there many Xbox Players in here?
I play with two friends and we're looking for some others to play with because there is only so much I can take of no comms or bad picks!
I'd like to think we're all pretty decent, range from the 2500 to 3100 SR Rank, but the main thing is we're just looking for some cool people to play with that also don't like losing
GT: Expozee
We can all play quite a wide variety of characters but generally one supp, one tank and one DPS is how we roll.
Oh and might be worth mentioning we're from the UK and generally play in the evenings.
Add me if you're interested.

It seems that people from the Asia servers are getting 11 free Loot Boxes as an apology for the DDOS attacks.

I used to think that but it's still pretty good.

And it's not that good anymore. It was a game changer before, now it's just..alright.
The mentality of 99% of OW players.

Pharah was my main for quite a while when the game came out, but as of late I mostly transitioned to Soldier and Zenyatta. But I picked Pharah mid-match today due to the situation and I started wrecking faces with her immediately.

I mean lucio is still close to a 100% pick.

The beta was hillarious. Genji/ Mcree ruled the lands.
Zen also could keep his orbs permanently on.
Symmetra had 50 shields.
Melee damage was 50.

Haha, yeah, that match was pretty fast, not much that could've happened lol. But yeah, good games in there!
Doesn't mean he's OP.

Like, what's your definition of OP honestly? You don't seem to think anything is.
Unless you think OW is perfectly balanced, if so ehhhhhhhhhh.

Seems you think everything is OP. OP is when a character has absolutely no answer to them whatsoever, and are so powerful that they are unreasonably hard to play against, at any/most skill levels. See Widow before her scope/ult charge/callout was nerfed.
Most of OW's characters have great utility when played well, and some, like Lucio, Zarya, and Reinhardt have extreme utility due to their kits. Doesn't mean they need to be nerfed; every single hero in the game will never be on an even playing field. Blizzard can make tweaks just to keep the meta changing over time, but the game will never be perfectly balanced unless every single hero is identical, especially because balanced is highly subjective and there is no absolute measure of balance. Pick rate certainly isn't one of them.

Lol no I don't think it's perfectly balanced. Look at half the defense heroes and Symm.
Also, what's wrong with not thinking anything is OP? Is that a bad thing. Sorry that I don't have the mentality that this thread title points to.
OP is something that is obviously broken and there's nothing in this game that's like that. And generally if everyone agrees something's OP, like McCree FTH for example, then yeah, it's probably OP. Like, the whole Zarya thing is half and half. Some people think she's OP, others don't.
I'm ok with the Ana nerf because I get a grenade buff for it and that's more important imo.
