had a diamond, troll Rein in a match, today. He was actually good at getting kills, and when he would stay w/ the team we would do well. But after a while he (literally) kept charging in, by himself. At first I thought we were doing a bad job as a team backing him up... but then I saw the enemy Symm's PotG where he zoomed on to the enemy point (Hollywood attack) and just proceeded to spam "hello" as she melted him and our Lucio. -__-
WTF?

Just take a break, and see how you feel about it in a couple of months. I've already taken 2 long breaks (2.5 and 1.5 months) and every time I've come back the game feels amazing like it did at launch. I'm probably going to take another break in a couple of weeks after I get everything out of the update which is a perfect time with all the new games coming out, and probably come back mid-way or 2/3 way through season 4 to at least get a decent rank.

Finally clawed my way out of Gold! Placements had me at roughly 2100 and it took me no longer being scared of being the weak link, learning team comp and not being too timid to get on mic and communicate, but it's done. Damn what a difference. Haven't been in plat too long, but it seems like most of the rage quitters, little kids that main Genji and the Widow players are all in gold and silver tier. Hoping to get into Diamond.
I unironically prefer this version lol, the original was pretty cringey for me. Reminded me of the first time I tried Hanzo and he said the most cliched line about honour and redemption.
All of that holds pretty true in every rank, it's just that Master/GM Widows will actually be able to hit their shots, making you hate them for a different reason.
But uh, don't mean to bring you down, congrats on the promotion! It's cool that you were able to identify problems in your game, address them, and climb for it.
There's whiny rage quitters/throwers at every level, even Master unfortunately.

I tried but I just couldn't resist embracing the iris to new heights!
I'm more into the in-game references than the memes, but that's pretty good.
Point B getting contested so he knows someone is there is genius.

Man, placing late in the season is a drag just because you see up front what level they're matching you against.
First two games, I felt like I was doing competently well. Won both.
Third game, I had a monster Dva match, so of course we lost.
Did something change about Widow on console so that people won't change from her?

Amazing, the editing work is very professional. I got to make a gif out of the junkrat part.

People who intentionally disconnect from games in comp are the worst.
Just ruins the game for everyone.

I kept spamming 'I need healing' but my team refused to go second healer. Although to be fair, I also refused to pick a better solo healer than Lucio. Thank god we won in five rounds.
Speed Lucio wasn't happening that game
Solo queue was good today, went 5-1-2. I wish there wasn't such an obvious correlation to how well I do solo and with the gaf group.

Witnessed the rare beauty that is a great widow on ps4 today and to make things better it was paired with a symmetra main who played her attack and defense on route 66. It went way better than expected and we stomped them!

Seagull on his stream just said that NRG will go to tournaments again once he "rebuilds the roster." So there's probably a real big shakeup coming.
Always nice when dodgy picks from the outset deliver. Very rare, though.

They should totally add announcer packs of all the characters as a loot drop. Make them the rarest thing you can get.
Really love his editing, v. inspirational.

It was known already.
Seagull, dummy and numlocked remain. The rest will get axed.
Not surprising given their recent performance.

i actually read a rumour about this a little while ago.
Apparently they're refocusing the team around Seagull and Dummy

Enigmas a real good dps player and a beast tracer but im afraid he'll get cut.
lol well i was lttp. yeah surprised it wasn't seagull dummy and enigma, but i guess if numlocked is replacing milo that makes a bit more sense
That would be a bad mistake.

I guess clockwork didn't last long?
I feel like Seagull could easily get a spot on a better team. Does he just like being 'the guy'?

He stopped being "the guy" for quite a while when he picked up Zarya. Once this tank meta ends, he is going to shine again.

Even in dive meta he was great but his team was second tier.
IDDQD is an interesting idea

Harb Zarya>>>>>

Calvins Zarya>>>
I refuse to accept Harb on anything but Roadhog. He was the first stream I ever watched and the one that convinced me to switch to PC after maining Hog on PS4 for Season 1.

Definitely not better than Harbleu's
His Tracer is nutty though.
He is 100x more fun to watch as Hog. But his Zarya is great.
Wonder what he'll do after the patch, it'd suck if it was an all Zarya stream.
Harb got his Zarya ult eaten twice the last time I watched his team. He's alright.

Personally I'm waiting on them to add character system voices like Guilty Gear has. As loot box drops of course.

Man, FaZe looks so weak ever since they forced out Twoeasy.
This is going to be the second time they rebuild around him.
What's the other option?
He's still with fnatic right? Just a reserve tho for some reason. Guy has gotta be in the top 3 with his aim.
Apparently he tilts super hard and that impacts the team's performance.
well if the pool of players that can play at that high level, like the 0.01% isn't large enough to support as many teams as there are now that they can actually fill a team and be competitive, hes going to have to give up this "his team" thing and just go with another team.
It's more plausible another team that has a weaker player than seagull that could use seagull in their roster rather than try to fill a whole team just for seagull
He said on stream today that he's planning to play for a new teams soon. He's been waiting for the contract with fanatic to expire or something
He was also kicked out of Rogue
-------
I had zero faith in Faze's triple dps but they managed to make it work. Their Pharah never missed shots.
