get ready for the new Roadhog meta, LOL He's still a monster. I can't.

 

[Blu(e)]

Btw. i got one of the achievements with Tracer. It's not that hard. But other one looks much harder to get since you need to capture all 3 flags (not your team, but you alone) and win with 3-0. :/

It says "Win Capture the Rooster with a score of 3 to 0." It doesn't specify you have to do it. I'll also go ahead and verify it because I got it while playing as Mei defending the flag.

The best part is people no longer have an excuse to go "WTF HOOK" every time even when they're being pulled in plain sight.

What? But i won 3-0 and got no achievement. WTF?

 

[_Legacy_]

Screw this new arcade mode and super-defensive teams. Last three games all 0-0 draws. Let me get a win ffs

 

[Satch]

i just picked roadhog in a real game and i felt like harbleu, i was a monster doing everything i wanted for free and getting the instakills on reaper and ana all the time

dark times are ahead, buckle up

 

[LiK]

There might be a delay. I remember not getting the Mei snowball spray until later.

 

[Antiwhippy]

People know lack of dva is just going to mean a rise of zarya to bubble the people you hook in right?

 

[xaosslug]

the colorful outfit ruins the whole thing. It should have been red + white, or just red. The blue + red is an eyesore! >_<

 

[Kor of Memory]

Since I can't get home soon, what are the rules for CTF?

 

[Data West]

I've already said Zarya's the next targeted victim of the community nerf demand

after 76

SHE CANT SAVE EVERYONE!

 

[Conor_Fool]

Are peeps overreacting about DVa or nah?

I'm still having a blast with her in Quick Play and getting majority gold medals. I guess she just isn't suited well for Competetive anymore?

 

[Trey]

Can we leave zarya alone? Thanks.

 

[Data West]

and pharah will be the nextg target after that

 

[NeoRaider]

They did D.Va wrong! I am not saying this because she is my most played hero but just being realistic. She is a fucking tank, let her feel like a tank while playing.
300/300 would have been good balance.

 

[Data West]

pharah actually deserves it though

dumbest decision to buff her

 

[Strangelove77]

5 draws in a row.

I hate this game mode. Just gimme my goddamn reward.

 

[Hurt and Scared]

The only problem I have with CTF right now is the people picking the dumbest characters and refusing to push outside of the flag spawn. If you actually move and play mobile it's a pretty fun and fast mode.

Only played 5-6 games far and I'm usually guarding my flag alone as torb well my team caps for two games had a pharah helping on defence

 

[Lyng]

5 draws in a row.

I hate this game mode. Just gimme my goddamn reward.

yeah really dumb mode

Or the mode is not dumb per se, but the maps feel way to small.

 

[LucidMomentum]

?

He only got a buff this patch round.

I mean in general. Lucio was heavily nerfed since launch and yet he's still a top pick.

 

[xaosslug]

what's your playstyle? If you stayed w/ your group most of the time and healing is decent, it shouldn't be any big problem. But if you played her more... off the leash the dif. is staggering.

you are no longer self-reliant and must acclimate to being DEPENDANT on the rest of your team's damage + healing.

it's fucking jarring! >_<

Can't stop won't stop is too strong.

 

[Ghost is Bad]

u guys hating on the ana skin dont realize that it's the worst skin period which automatically makes it the best.

 

[Mendrox]

Hmm played her in comp and quick play and I notice that I die faster and cant play that aggressive anymore, but her shots are way more accurate now and it feels like I get more feed back.

 

[Veelk]

Okay, now that I tried out a real game (or what qualifies as such in QP)

JE-SUS

D.Va. Mah baby. What did they do to you

Her tank gets torn like paper mache now.

 

[orthodoxy1095]

There needed to be some kind of balancing or limiting on how defensive heroes like Torb and Sym worked. With both of them on defense and maybe a Bastion helping now and then, you're basically either going to win or at least guarantee a stalemate.

 

[Jblanks]

Eh the only skins that are worthwhile are Reinhardt and Roadhog. Probably won't be putting much time into this event, getting a little burnt out anyhow.

 

[Doug Heffernan]

I like those patch notes, does this mean you can now bind "Need Healing" to one of the d-pad directions?

 

[Lyng]

Eh the only skins that are worthwhile are Reinhardt and Roadhog. Probably won't be putting much time into this event, getting a little burnt out anyhow.

I actually really like Mei and Tracer aswell...and for some reason I like D.Va. Not the mech, D.va herself.

 

[Hellwarden]

Well capture the flag is a game mode people can play if they choose.

Best thing I can say about it.

 

[TrueBlue]

Early consensus on CTF?

I'm hoping it's good - would be cool to see a new mode implemented.

 

[Satch]

u guys hating on the ana skin dont realize that it's the worst skin period which automatically makes it the best.

EXACTLY

 

[Veelk]

How it feels summoning your MEKA now:

 

[darklin0]

Here's Jeff telling you about CTF.

That is not a dinoflask video update so this has no bearing on my opinion.

 

[BasicMath]

Good strategy for CTF:

Tracer (or Sombra, but i prefer Tracer) and D.Va going together. D.Va is using her shield to protect Tracer while she is capturing the flag. And Tracer blinks back fast.

This works well.

For defense just have a mei + torb/sym turret/sentries. Just a Mei will do though.

 

[Data West]

widowmaker is in more games than genji on qp

i guarantee it 100%

 

[AngryMoth]

OMG basketballs nerfed?????

 

[Ryo Hazuki]

Can't get in to shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit. Three flag games in like two hours. All draws.

 

[Lyng]

Can't get in to shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit. Three flag games in like two hours. All draws.

Yeah cant get in either right now....just want that one win and then I can savely never touch that mode again :S

 

[rulerk1]

played 3 matches of CTF and everyone on my team just sits back at the flag and doesnt even bother going for it. No one groups up either. Ive been going up against 6 stacks despite solo que so that might be it

 

[Jblanks]

I actually really like Mei and Tracer aswell...and for some reason I like D.Va. Not the mech, D.va herself.

DVa out of mech is good, the mech not so much. Guess people will be spending more time out of mech now anyhow, so maybe it's worthwhile to get.

 

[Jblanks]

Did you expect anything different ? People can't group up and attack on control point or KOTH point, now you're asking to communicate and not only get a flag but try and defend your's at the same time.

 

[Kurumi]

How it feels summoning your MEKA now:

Lmao

 

[Data West]

i like winston getting new skins and all

but you're insane if you think wukong looks better than yeti

 

[Hellwarden]

The fall of the Tank meta will give rise to the Defense meta mark my kaplans.

The rise of the main man, Junkrat, begins.

 

[Ghost is Bad]

wukong > winston

 

[Blu(e)]

New kill feed is so good.
