I don't mind off-meta picks, but please, if someone decides to go with something off-meta, don't just choose a new and exciting character just because. We had a team with a guy who was dead set on going Bastion - he was in Master - so of course our other teammate is going to bust out the Sombra. Spoilers: Sombra and Bastion don't have any synergy. Literally none.
 
The thing I hate most in this game is when I notice that there's a huge delay between what I'm seeing in my screen and what's actually happening in the game. Seems especially bad in mystery heroes. What is the reason for this shit? Server related?

I'm available for Season 4.

Last season we did our placements with a big group (5 and 6 stack) and we went 8W-2L. Fun times, you should join us for the next one.

I take a break even if I win a close game. Need to relax.

I get hyped. Nothing like coming back from a 0-2 on KOTH :D

One-sided games are just meh.
 
Well, since the event got extended for an extra day I thought I'd earn my three crates for the week. Overall, I've gotten some great stuff in random lootboxes I've gotten just from playing arcade and levelling up. I was getting jackshit until the second week!

Junkrat - Firework
Mercy - Golden
Tracer - Rose
Symmetra - Oipao
Bastion - Rooster

Legendary Event Skins

Once I had Bastion, Sombra, and Junkrat on attack. This was in high masters around 3800 lol. I would think masters players would know better. We got rolled pretty fast.

Maybe for KotH. Had a good one with Zarya where the ending was mental. Games where you shouldn't have won or somehow manage to hold at the death require a break for me though.

This Widow claimed she wasn't trying to throw. She then switched to Sym on Kings row for attack and made teleporters on attack for first point.. It tied 3-3 and on defense she made shields when we had to run to point.

Gatting to diamond is impossible when you are getting paired with a five team group that are throwing games on purpose... :(

I mean they have players who were season high 3700+ and now they're 2600 and playing symmetra and such on King of the hill

This is so unfair...

You on console?

Pretty sure the server rate on console is still 20 tick lol

I am looking for some good Ana guides. Wanna learn how to main her, as she is almost always pick in competitive. Any recommendations? TY!

Yeah I know the ones you are talking about, it's when I say "I'm not going to push my luck more than this" and leave :)

Yes. But in some games the situation is clearly much worse. It's when you see the kill-cam and it looks like you are shooting a ghost lol

After I complained I had another game where I was S76 and my shots weren't connecting at all. Had to leave the match to find another and everything was normal in the next one. Since the game sometimes shows a message that's switching servers I thought it could be because of that.

Let it be known that Buttch lies about inviting me to games. 😤

You are not showing on social list even though you are online and in the game.

Ok, I forgive him.

You can't carry that :v

I know I'm the one to say git gud and carry, but there are going to be points where you can't do it. Just hold the L and trust in law of averages.

I would have to be Seagull/Surefour level of good to do so...

My aim is really bad unfortunately.

I was being facetious, I think a lot of peoples remedy for that is just "carry carry carry"

RN I'm in a comp match and 3 dps can't kill one pharah.

maybe i'll take a break soon. friend list is barren. only a few guys playing for a lil bit of time. i really should play something else instead until new season.
 
They should never have extended the event, it lured me into a night of aggravation.
Though this time for a slight change it was mainly just lopsided teams as opposed to brainless teammates, a few matches in particular contained a Genji so stupidly accurate whilst flipping about that it genuinely made me ponder if there was some mouse on console malarkey afoot (tilted to the point of CONSPIRACY)

Exactly. When I lost 7 games in a row I had won 4 or 5 in a row that was just pushing my luck. Eg we never managed to get first point on Gibraltar but we still won.

Played like 5 games of comp with the game behaving poorly.

Randomly thought to close the battle.net client, performs hows it's supposed to :[

had some awful games recently especially as sombra. so apparent when you play her that you're not really doing THAT much for your team besides mildly annoying the enemy team. uploading a video now.

Ugh, I want to get back but the call to nioh is strong...

I think I'll just hang onto my SR right now and wait for season 4 seeing that it's getting close and just behead some yokai for now.
