Hmm, just realized I have loads of Widowmaker lines.
Shame.
I never play her, because no.
Just no.

Don't worry guys, they already changed it.
Now he pretty much has the effective HP of nanorein, which is not as ridiculous, but we're talking about nanorein with the ability to instagib most heroes at long range and far better mobility.
Again, nano tank even in live is still one of the most ridiculous combos you can do, it's just that nobody does it because you have to run a bastion.

High energy Zarya can melt her fairly quickly if your tracking isn't shit, and her bubble saves you from her beam, but Overwatch isn't really a game of "direct counters".
Seems to get better towards the middle of Plat. Hang in there.

Like at hero select? Not particularly any hard counters. You really just wanna counter strat her.
She's harder on consoles because she has a big autoaim gun while you need to precisely shoot her down if she's jumping around you. But assuming you can get direct hits in and she hasn't gotten her gun powered up, you should win out dps her.
Tracer can deal with her pretty easily.

Congrats Grief! Makes me want to give it one more try. Maybe next season, since I'm gonna be busy out of town and away from my PC this weekend.
Was thinking about other abilities they could add to balance lucio's speed boost better and came up with a cool character idea I think.
An alchemy based support character who can spray down a limited amount of splatoon style liquid with speed boost/reduce affect, place down potions that act as limited quantity health packs and can cook and throw some kind of explosive cocktail

This sounds so cool, and in general I wish we had more alchemy-based stuff in games like that. Maybe it's because I just visited the alchemy exhibit at a museum last weekend, but man, alchemy is just so cool.
Let's say she's up close to you and you're Soldier, are you pretty much dead? I noticed I can't out run her due to her tremendous beam range, and missles ends up causing me to take some damage.
It's really hard to shoot her with her small hitbox and she's jumping around all over the place with her auto aim.

You shouldn't really be up close to her in the first place though.
I'll say that as pharah she pretty much can't do anything to me.

I think this event has been especially generous to me as I've wanted a pachimari icon of some kind for a while, but up until this event I have not gotten a single default or event-related pachimari. This time I've managed to snag three. The pachi no longer eludes me.
Gotta get good tbh. Soldier deals damage way higher than Sym, especially with helix, so it's just a skill thing.
No need to be near her either. So space well and aim well and he should win almost every time.
Almost every legendary skin I have gotten is for her, but I just cant play.

Man something about Play of the Game really makes me want to get it. Bit salty about the last match. Game 2 I literally saved our series from being a 0-2. It was already overtime and the enemy already had 99% points. Walked in as Soldier 76 and smashed the entire enemy team with my ult, capped and defended like hell. Game 3 I did 4 quick kills like twice and led the overall turnaround victory. Play of the game: our Lucio pushing a lone enemy off the cliff. Wtf
Is there no replay functionality for Overwatch?

This isn't particularly an issue of "Should" and "Shouldn't be". Symmetra's strength at lower ranks honestly comes from her auto-aim. At higher ranks, you don't see Symmetra's melting DPS characters. She's too squishy and almost always loses because better players can actually shoot her instead of panicking. That's why I don't particularly like Symmetra's balance right now. At the competitive tiers, she's very well balanced. But in the Platinum and lower ranks she becomes much stronger.
There are other problems with her at higher elo too. Like, she isn't running around killing people, but she's just plain not fun to deal with for certain maps and set ups. It's not a balance issue really, it's just generally complained about a lot and kinda hard to deal with for no real good reason. Beatable, but anti-fun.

Mystery Heroes Numbani Attack...."One shot, one kill"....ugh, Widow. The opposing team is camped by the first bus so I stayed in the "Health" area and started sniping. Probably got off 20 shots and got booted for inactivity. Did I just get punished for camping?

No replays at the moment. Currently all you get are highlights of your recent matches saved for rewatching, but those get wiped when you exit the game.

Borderless windowed adds a few frames of input lag. Fullscreen is the way to go bro.

Does it?
I can't play in full screen because I hate screen tearing and unless you turn on vsync in full screen you'll get it

Omg. Amazing. I think the fact that they teased us with a spray was the worst. Maybe they're saving it for next year.
Random question: anyone else kind of hate defending on attack/defense maps? Whenever I play solo I usually surf around until I land in a non-defense match. The stakes are just so much higher on defense and it kind of "stresses" me out. On defense I have to play boring and super serious and be on point because the defending team needs to only lose one battle for the whole thing to go to shit. It's on attack when I can try stuff and feel a bit relaxed but I'm always super high alert when defending, picking optimal characters even if I don't feel like it because I don't exactly enjoy losing.

Has Blizzard acknowledged at all that the community hates 2cp maps? They're all just so bad....
They are also pretty imbalanced at pro level too. Retooling them i sa pretty big undertaking though, I'm pretty sure there are plans somewhere happening to deal with them. Wouldn't be surprised to see a band aid fix at some point.
By imbalanced I mean first defense advantage gets over 60%+ at APEX regularly on the 2CP maps. They try to offset it via format but still.

TBF I think they also show first attack at 60% for payload maps also. It's kinda hard to tell how reliable that data can be used when it comes to map design.
True, but I wouldn't doubt if 2CP ends up being slightly imba in favor of first defense in the long run is all. First defense in general is a pretty big advantage, but at least on payload it's snowbally enough for first offense to get some dumb shit.
I kinda wanna know what the data is in general on that.
