Ana wasn't the best most played hero when she was released. She came out during the zen meta and had to wait for him to get nerfed and her to get her buffs before she did. It's why they don't want to buff sombra yet.
Sombra is real close to being Overpowered so I hope they don't buff her and leave her in the specialist role she's in.
Maybe they dropped down to your SR?Does Blizzard give a shit how broken comp matchmaking is? It's literally designed to keep bronze players bronze. Every match is me and 5 other bronze who rage quit because VS 2 golds and 2 silvers.
Do they know about this problem or do they just not care?
They admit so! They've admitted to me several times that they do that on purpose to downrank and get more wins. You can't make this shit up. Is Blizzard that clueless about their own game?Maybe they dropped down to your SR?
Better yet, do that many bronze players not care about losing over and over again? Shouldn't this have been addressed weeks ago if people were complaining?

I have noticed that most bronze games have 1-2 super good players that don't seem to belong there. They decide matches on their own.
I wonder if she would've been used as much as she is now if they never buffed her ammo/shot speed/grenade radius
I think people didn't know how good she was or how to use her so she ended up getting buffed. Plus zen was stupid so people wouldn't use her anyway. She probably would have been more balanced but her grenade would still be really good due to antiheal anyway so probably still picked. Buffing the grenade radius was just stupid.

I think Heroes of the Storm suffers from a lack of identity as a result of that. I look at the mish-mash of characters and cringe with distaste.
I agree it would damper with the genuinity of the game, maybe if it was added in a not so persistent way, they could work around it if it gets implemented through a themed event during blizzcon or something. I just wonder how cool would it be to be able to fight through the city of Dalaran or Ironforge.
Is loot box RNG biased against your most played character? I have over 20 hours on D.Va, and I shit you not, I have NEVER gotten a skin, emote, victory pose, or highlight intro for her EVER. I get a good mixture of things for every other character, but not for D.Va. Fuck this game.

Wow, I got the D.va skin without farming and I don't even like her or the costume.
I'd rather they keep it to cameo costumes. Give Soldier 76 a space marine alt, etc.I agree it would damper with the genuinity of the game, maybe if it was added in a not so persistent way, they could work around it if it gets implemented through a themed event during blizzcon or something.

I already have champion zarya though. :<
Also finished installing my new cpu fan, which was way more of an ordeal than anticipated. My computer haven't exploded yet so I'm assuming i installed it properly.

what was hard about it

The fucking screws to screw in the fan wouldn't align properly and i couldn't drop it down from the top because the way the fins are situated on top of the screw mounts and just... Ugh.
Had to remove the fin array multiple times to get the screws properly aligned which I'm guessing isn't great for the thermal paste application, but it's still holding on so I'm not going to worry about it for now.

So, finally got a decent skin, Roadhog's lunar legendary. It's neither of the skins I really wanted (Zen and DVa), but I'm glad the game at least gave me something cool. Grinded up 4500 credits during this event so far, so unless I get lucky I'm still a long grind removed from getting what I want. Still kinda having a miserable time on the game though, playing a game so much really turns your perspective on it.

If you pay for something that has any gay in it your money turns gay.

Because he has no movement or defensive options. And if he dies you lose a good offensive tank.Why do so many healers seem to prioritize a Roadhog at lower hp the exact same as a Winston or Reinhardt at low hp?

A rein takes way more priority to me.
Rein dead is a bigger detriment to the team.

Just build a sound proof gaming room so you can mic up and I'll invite you again!hey fellows, i play overwatch usually a couple times a night and need more friends who play so i can get that 20% bonus! i'm not that great but i'm not completely worthless.... although it is difficult for me to use a mic because my daughter is usually sleeping when i can play :/ so if you want to be one of my new best friends add me pls: frenchmov
He gets shredded for free when he's healing out in the open. Reinhardt can still hold up his shield and Winston can jump or place his shield.And he has a self heal and the most hp in the game

I mean, he shouldn't be healing out in the open.
Sometimes shit happens. In that sort of situation I would have little choice as Ana but to help supplement his health quickly.I mean, he shouldn't be healing out in the open.

It depends, he can straight up outheal some enemies attacks.

It's more like that's just bad positioning.
Eh, I've healed Hog's through the brink of death while they're self-healing and it's turned the tide of battles as a result.It's more like that's just bad positioning.

So I'm reading this, and wondering to myself, how does one become a Bastion main? This player has logged 40 hours of him so far. He did it as a challenge, but he's certainly not the only one to main Bastion.
I know we all have different playstyles and preferences, but playing Bastion that extensively seems so boring. I know having ridiculous dps capabilities can be exciting, but aside from that there's just nothing interesting about his kit. I dislike other heroes like Junkrat, Widow and Hanzo, but I can still see why someone would click with them. Bastion, not so much.

My argument really isn't that you shouldn't heal hog, because hell yeah, I'll heal a hog, it's more like if you're out in the open and getting shat on your hog positioning is pretty bad.
Tell me your secrets.
If I wrote a Sombra guide, would it help?
