Mercy won you a game and yet you still begrudge her...
We did well on Route 66 defense and I think the defense Mercy was the one to go attack Mercy, I was going to mention going Ana but I respect Mercy mains and we won pretty easily.

We got about halfway to first checkpoint on Route 66, had a super toxic dude on our team (but he did play support to be fair).
On D I picked Symmetra and he yelled at me (I didn't have a mic plugged in). We held, I had three golds, and a clutch teleporter.

Lost the game that would have taken me to Diamond with three golds as Zarya.

Next game we had a Mercy to co heal with my Lucio on Oasis. They had an Ana, so I'm sure you can guess how that went.
we won 3-0

Isn't ana considered not ideal on console?

Only difficult thing about ana on console is zoom healing tiny heroes, other than that she's great
Regarding Ana, I always see quickscope heals on PC gameplay videos but there's a scope in time on console which prevents this, has anyone else noticed this?

Alright, that's good to hear. I actually wonder how close the console meta is now compared to PC.
Also just a curious little thing. I found a whole bunch of overwatch merch in a shop called ctc, short for cigarettes tobacco cigars.
Weird.
They got reaper, soldier 76 and genji statuettes and also a whole bunch of character keychains. They didn't have any of the characters I mained so I only got the logo keychain.
No, there is a scope in time on PC as well. You have to get used to it.

GGs to the GAF crew that let me play with them tonight.
Grief, Plywood, and Onemic.
I think we went ever / came up one game positive, but we got a tilted guy to come back from the brink so I felt accomplished.
Also this Lijiang tower game I got so many Boops. This one was my fave though:

Yeah, I fell about 250 SR today. Some of the games felt completely unwinnable. Like nothing I did had any effect on the outcome. Sitting at a healthy 3700 now. I was so close to GM. :l
people like to use that bs line that pharmercy isn't just becuase 'hawt flying lesbians' and because of their great mechanic synergy
but if that were true why isn't zarya x hanzo a thing
Because almost anyone combos with Zarya. It makes the synergies she has less exciting. With Pharah and Mercy though, the combo they have is fairly unique. It makes an interesting synergy that is unique to them and it's not a far leap to make them a couple in people's mind as they seem like a couple even in the game. But also hot flying lesbians.
I'm sure you were being at least a little sarcastic, but I was thinking about what really caused most of the pairings that fans have thought up given the lack of a fleshed out story earlier today so the thought was fresh in my mind.

Ok I think I'm off my tilt for now. I won't fall for the Overwatch weekend trap this time.

PS4 GAF, my update says it's like 14gb. This constantly happens with just this game. Does any Ody else have this problem?

Playing super early morning on weekends is OK, assuming youre on at like 5 am est or somewhere around there lol
So when Christmas Mei happened, a lot of folks expressed displeasure that it was just a recolor of her default skin with a santa hat and a snowman. Blizzard said they misjudged the cool factor (paraphrasing) on it.
Now Palanquin D.Va has happened and it's the exact same situation - a recolor of her (mech's) default skin, with a few dangly bits around the visor and a hanbok instead of a zero suit. Don't get me wrong - lovin' the hanbok - but feels pretty equal to Christmas Mei.
Are there fewer (if any?) expression of displeasure at this because a) Palanquin D.Va is just that awesome or b) Meirry set the precedent that this kinda' thing happens, and we're not surprised or bothered any more?
(I always liked Meirry, for the record, but her new year skin beats the heck out of it.)

Nah they even changed her window. DVas skin is awesome.

I don't get the comparison. D.Va's skin change is way more involved in the changes they made to the model.

the other team did this and we held them inside their own base until the last minute then pounded in, stole the flag once and won lol.
Cool, never have to play CTF again.
Helped my friend win one because he wanted the box and we kept losing to premade teams. Finally get a match where we take a 2-0 lead almost immediately and the opponents just turtle up. Not a single one of them tried to attack until less than a minute left.
Burn CTF to the ground and lets never talk about it again.

I think it just keeps showing the total size of the all the updates the game has had.
I've had it happen for some other games, but yeah it definitely should not be downloading 14gb just for this patch.

Freezing the entirety of the other team twice in a match only to have the play of the game be that guy on your team who didn't do much but pick up your kills, pretty demoralizing.

Huh.
Well that's certainly one way to balance out the roadhog/dva dynamic.

Holy shit D.va players whine a lot.
Dva players complain that character is too weak in general -> OW dev replies that they're improving one ability in one/few scenarios -> following forum posts are people rejoicing.
What? That blue text is literally the word of god for those people.
As for the OP, the point of pilot form being weak is the tradeoff for having a powerful mech form. No one was complaining about baby Dva while she was all powerful. As much as she annoys me, they overnerfed Dva a little. They need to add a visual effect on her defense matrix representing duration too.

Ana will continue being a problem so long as she continues to completely overwrite Mercy's existence.
I was I could wake up at 5 am. This is usually mid-day and early evenings.
Edit: I've played at 2:00am before.

Though tbf, if there's a character's existence I want to overwrite because of how boring they are it would be mercy.

Mercy only exists to make Pharah slightly more annoying.

True, I mean, Ana is about as fun as a healer character has ever been in a game for me whereas Mercy being the TF2 medic turned into waifubait with wings is as dull here as it is in TF2. Alas.
Lucio is worse. I think no support main actually wants to play Lucio. I don't.
