Bastions' nto even that much of an issue at low MMR anymore
hell, Pharah's way more of an issue at low MMR and she's still far more viable at higher skill players. He's also not pumping near as much burst damage from long range now.
Just need to learn to focus fire on him. People were afraid of Zarya for a while. I'm pretty sure once Bastion buffs go live and people bitch about it enough, they'll scale back on some of the changes. Ironclad needs to be nerfed judging from the videos I've seen.
There was a Reddit thread saying how Bastion isn't quite as bad as some people are saying because his turret mode damage was significantly nerfed and his hitbox is huge to make up for it. Ironclad does sound too good, though.
We'll have to see. I'd like a more viable Bastion because I like the character, but I don't want him to break the game. I certainly don't want to see a game where it becomes Bastion and Friends vs Bastion and Friends.

My favorite is when I heal them to full after a fight and they then use their healing ability. It's like "Do you have any awareness as to what's happening at all?" Lol
To be fair, sometimes I set up healing stations as Soldier for my team or Mercy to keep them alive. As for Roadhogs, sometimes they wanna top off quicker so it's no biggie.

He is way more mobile than he use to be though, and impossible to kill in turret form without extremely high levels of focus fire. Heck, pro teams are banning him from scrimms because of how powerful he is.
He is certainly better than Soldier right now, and they need to either remove or tone back his ironclad ability to make him fair.

Can we expect all the PTR changes to come out tomorrow?
The amount of people who actually play PTR is so miniscule that I think they'd rather put it out live and see how it fares in the wild. Similar to Zen's Discord Orb buff.

It could be just an alternate skin like for Ana Shrike or just old concept art like Sombra. I'm not sure what to think really. The PTR Numbani change makes it seem like a lock for Doomfist but Kaplan said otherwise. Either way I'm excited for a new character.

The fashion mech makes no sense as the next hero because Efi doesn't play into it at all. The only connection is that it is a mech in Numbani.

Blizz said something like 2% of the OW population actually play on the PTR. So even if the forums have like 20 threads complaining it still represents such a miniscule amount of the general playerbase you can't really make many changes. I kinda wish PTR could somehow get incorporated into the live servers so on the menu it has a tab for LIVE/PTR so more people could try without having to change stuff on battle.net
That would work for the Anchora rumor cuz Efi does want her creations to help people.

Am I the only once here who keeps checking the Overwatch Twitter every hour on the hour for the new hero? They gotta announce this either today or tomorrow.

Every initial hero tease before Sombra was resolved about a week later. So the hero/es is/are going to be revealed no later than tomorrow most likely.
Also, a mech Omnic is cooler than spider omnic, but I like how we've been kept guessing and wondering about the new hero. We have absolutely no idea apart from a 4chan leak that could easily be faked. This week in Overwatch has been pretty exciting IMO.

The fact that they're closing the PTR doesn't bode well for an imminent hero release, I think.
Unless they're closing it, applying the current patch to live, and then immediately reopening it with a new hero. But that seems weird.

Nah, it's just lil teasers instead of some obscure puzzle that leads from one countdown to another. Any other forms of speculation are fan driven.

This situation seems familiar, so it makes me think it happened with Ana? I don't really think it's weird, it seems more likely they would hold back the changes to Bastion and release them with the new heroes, but those changes have been on there for a little while.

I might be able to play on PS4 tonight if you guys need another player. I'm a diamond / master level flex player.

Can't wait until the buff is live and see a repeat of this.
Only problem is it takes like 5 Widow shots to kill a Bastion in turret mode.
I think we're gonna see the real effects of the buff when it hits live, it's gonna be glorious I am telling you!
