Fair point, especially if they keep her to scale with the other Overwatch Nendoroids and include her mech.
It would be super cute if her mech was all round and bubbly, though.

RIP
He is. I should've gone Hog in that last round in lijiang instead of soldier even though they had a Pharah, it's not like she can do much if we were inside the point or going left like we were doing. That way it would've been easier to deal with their winston first and then proceed with the rest. They got absolutely destroyed in the first two rounds so it was a shame that we ended up losing that one.
Had one of my best games in a while. Team dogged it the first round completely, but I was pulling our Hog and McCree out of the shit so many times as Ana. So many timely sleeps and Grenades to save them from Rein.
2nd round, they got it together, fire the entire game as Ana.
3rd round, they dogged it again.
Switched over to Soldier, Stopped the Mercy end game rez both fucking times.
It really does seem like the best strategy at lower end play is get good at something that can flank. I've turned three games around today, by switching over to Winston, Tracer, and Soldier. With my goal to fuck up the healers quick. Sadly, it doesn't work as well in Payload since the maps are more linear.

There are several issues I see with the system.
1. There needs to be two separate system for rank. Solo and team. Solo should just be that, you are alone. Team is everything 2 and above. This address the boosting and many others all at once.
2. I do think there should be a small cumulative gain, what does this mean? Even if you go 50/50, you'll still move up slowly. We're talking 1-2 points every few games. Why? Because as a player progresses, they should acquire at least more knowledge throughout the season, with the more they play. Someone who has 200 games played in Diamond, should be better than someone with 20. Them being up 100 or 150 would make sense. They should simply be more experience.
3. A loss floor I feel like is needed. Hit 3 or 4 losses in a row? You cap out how much you can lose per game.

Anyone else running into a lot of trolls tonight? Lost 3 games because of people just straight up throwing for no reason out of the gate, and all 3 of them were previously GM ranked or right around it.

Michael Chu just announced that Hanzo has three legendary skins in development after people vetted their concerns on the Overwatch forums. Hopefully one of them is from the Reflections comic.

What would you even call this meta? "Balanced"? Some heroes are still ass, but it doesn't seem like any hero is insanely overpowered, and there are a ton of heroes who can be played effectively. Pretty solid meta at the moment.
And what are the expectations after the Lucio changes? I'm sure the pros see it as a massive nerf even if us console diamond players thinks it's a buff. Will he fall out of the pro meta?

I don't think they should be giving people more reasons to be playing Hanzo.
Source?
I can play Zenyatta, Genji, and Sombra to great effect, so I'm pretty happy with the place the meta is in right now!

Heh heh.
How do you link a Tweet to be visible? I'm new at that haha! I'll just leave a URL link.
From Michael Chu's Twitter.
Lucio will always have a high pick rate, but his upcoming changes will shake things up with his placement in the current meta. It's honestly hard to say where that character will go, as both Sombra and Orisa haven't made that much of an impact and are considered tobe niche picks.
I like this meta. Pretty much everything can be viable except defense heroes, which I don't personally play. All offense heroes but RIPer, all tanks (Orisa?), and all actual healers
I thought the floor was 150? That's what the ceiling is.
Are you going to write your goddamn paper or not

I did it. Kind of.
Same answer when people ask you to pick a healer and you pick Lucio.
It's too late for more overwatching tonight, tmw night event skin time.

http://cloud9.gg/news/xepher-selly-bishopMendo and Ryb are no longer on the starting roster for Cloud9.
Sad to see Mendo benched but i guess this is what happens when you have like 3dps players on the team already. He replies to nearly all my twitch comments rip
But Gods moving over to main tank lmao i guess this is what the team decided with the new coach
Xepher had some hype behind him i remember Kaiser saying he should be picked up again.
It doesn't. Unless it was changed from this event onward.
Talking about the current meta, I'm pretty happy as it is. There still are assholes who were once GM or master and now spend all their time missing shots as widow but otherwise there aren't characters which stick out that much.

According to Mendo's twitter, he requested to step down a while back. I'm guessing his insomnia/depression issues are having a negative impact on his abilities. Or I'm just spouting nonsense. Either way he was one of my favorite personalities and players on that C9 roster.

What time's the new event's gonna start?
The PvE option has me excited, plus new Mercy skins is the fastest way to get me playing again.

I wish teammates called out, I spam I got ultimate with Zarya or Ana for a combo or whatever and I get nothing back, just have to make guesses when good use, or try react to them ulting.
Edit: anyone know time when update rolls out?

Synergy bonuses using different combinations of characters.

Honestly I think this is pretty good as it is. We are talking about pro games here after all.
But I agree that Torb should be picked more.
Probably won't see the update go live until afternoon anyway. I'll be on to buy lootboxes. Lol
Almost 50% Mercy usage on KOTH. There's a stat I never thought I'd see.
waiting for those rezzes.
