Well this sounds promising at least. Hopefully it works out.

Zarya with charge is a pretty good target, as is an Ulting-Pharah.

Most players here I'd assume do the same. I tried that sens and you're spinning around in circles doing just slight nudges on your mouse. You should try lowering either your DPI or your in-game sensitivity so that you can move your mouse more to make more precise aiming adjustments.
Mouse acceleration should be off anyway because your mouse won't move relative to the speed you move it, which helps with building muscle memory. Also, I think your sensitivity is high (I use 1600dpi, 3 sens), but if it works for you, then I'd keep it where it is
Depends on how old your mouse is. Older models/sensors have a native DPI that you want to set your mouse to. For newer ones, it doesn't matter what DPI you set as long as you can get the distance per 360 you want.
That's actually on the high end sens wise at about 5cm/360. I play with about a 30cm/360 and that's average. O.O
You can use this to calculate actual sensitivity:

not really? Ana's still pretty OP, and her heals + nano are the reason behind bayblade & tank meta. D.Va's nerf will kick her out of the meta, but she will just be replaced by Zarya or Winston, imo.

It's impossible to deal with good tracers on console. Like what can you even do againist that?

Tbh mayb its me but i dont think nanoblade is that effective on a genji unless we're talking top players. Id rather nanoboost a rein or zarya and let genji blade on his own

Career high in eliminations as Lucio. The speed thing on KOTH is 2-0 now. That was an awesome five round game. I definitely need to get better at it though, I die way too much.
So much fun though.

Spot on. Its like the excuse they all use.
Yeah nanoblade isn't amazing because Roadhog can still completely shut it down or even a sleep. Nano visor is way safer and frankly has a lower skill ceiling.
But boosting a good Genji is amazing because they can one shot any 200/250 HP hero with blade+dash

someone should make a list of all the excuses people come up with to keep playing stupid picks.
"I have gold damage/elims"
"X Hero has a heal/shield/cc/etc"
"I have X hours on this hero"
"Why don't you play X Hero then?"
"I'm a Diamond/Master/Grandmaster smurf"
"I have gold damage/elims"
"X Hero has a heal/shield/cc/etc"
"I have X hours on this hero"
"Why don't you play X Hero then?"
"I'm a Diamond/Master/Grandmaster smurf"
Not much reason to Nano a Rein, these days. Without the speed buff, it's kind of sad watching everyone just run away from him. I only do it when he pins the enemy Rein (or enemy Rein gets Nano'd and charges in).

Rip speed increase on nanoboosted targets
This is like the fourth time ive posted my sadness of nanoboost speed
Hop on a DPS yourself and pray for the best
. Granted if they're good enough that you can't predict where they'll rewind back to it gets fkn tough.I played a QP game on Lijiang Tower last night with a Lucio who got 8 environmental kills in 2 rounds. He was on a rampage.
mines is 2013 death adder. I used the tool and it says I should use any DPI but in game sensitivity should be 2 or 3
It's going be weird getting use to this. It takes forever to turn lol.
Still faster than console.
I have a small mouse pad, so I use a pretty high sensitivity. 1800dpi, 9 Sens.

I actually have forced myself to use lower sensitivity after getting back into FPS with BF1 this year. My aim has improved quite a bit. I had to use a higher sensitivity for OW though since the pace is a lot faster. I'm using 750 DPI and 10 in-game sensitivity which is roughly 18cm for a 360 turn. In BF1 I'm using 25cm for a 360. I used something like 7cm for a 360 all my life until now.
Lowering the sensitivity has really helped me to get better. I still want to get lower but this is my limit atm. Also this is interesting: http://on-winning.com/overwatch-pro-sensitivity-settings-setups-monitor-mouse-keyboard-headset/

Funny enough, I rarely see players use the Nano Dart on Symmetra. With her increased range, Symmetra can be deadly on the offense (and people don't really realize that).
This one is tricky, as you need communication from the Zarya player to know how much charge he/she has. If it's 40+, then definitely. Below that, not so much.
I would also add Widowmaker to this list, as she wouldn't even need to hit the head-shot hitbox. She could pretty much get a kill with a bodyshot like how she was prior to the damage nerf. Oh, and for Torbjorn: Nano Boost + Molten Core = Scary dwarf.
The communication isn't really necessary. Don't Nano her if she doesn't have the Orbs indicating at least half charge. Definitely Nano her if she looks like a god damn Super Saiyan.
RIP DSPStanky.
I'd still boost Genji over those two because he can easily take out squishies with a slash + dash combo, and since he's a focus target when he's ulting it makes it easier for the Genji to stay alive during ult (and also because I personally love getting nanoboosted when I'm Genji)

That's what I did.
I insta lock him every time I do solo q.
seems to work well enough

Ate the Zarya effects visible on all graphic settings?
Dunno if everyone can see it

It should be since that's a pretty important visual clue to whether zarya's a wet cloth or a 400 hp assassin.

Carbot's new underwatched video is absolutely amazing, easily one of his best videos yet and by far his longest.

It's pretty ridiculous, how can you pick Torb and not know you're the one who is supposed to counter pharah?Torbjorn: "I switched to Bastion to deal with the Pharah"

That was cute, the hook part had me rolling.
Nice climb.

Thanks, I honestly think if my placements fare better next season I could hit diamond, I just got screwed from the start this season
Edit: Although based on grouping up and going against teams of different SR ratings, I'd say I probably belong in the 2600-2700 range.
Now is probably the best time to push for Diamond. If you've climbed that much in a few weeks, the system is probably in your favor to keep pushing you up.

True, also before Blizzard nerfs Soldier or buffs other DPS.
Roadhog main I saw
S2 2500
S3 4400
Wonder what rank he is now since it was a while ago.
I don't think they're going to touch the other DPS until they figure out exactly what they want to do with Sombra.
yea thanks this works a bit better for me.

change sombra to a support and focus on hacking instead of dps.
No...
No one ever boosts me with Symmetra because they don't believe in a good symmetra playing comp.
Is what people say to me when I play Symmetra in comp...yet without the teleporter they struggle to hold a point.
Also Psychoward how do you get the comp option on Overbuff
