I don't really feel like starting my day yet. So I think I might get on for an hour or two now. If any of my European friends are online we can team up.

Let's go champ.
You're going to get shitty teammates no matter what rank you're at.
Getting yelled at by a Mercy for not protecting her.
See her ass cowering in a corner while Winston just walks right up to her, rather than following the team in. Always running away the second she takes damage in the opposite direction. Or healing her partner in queue.
Goes pharah to hopefully give her an option to escape Genji and Winston
Never gets a heal and see her ass running back to base on every death I get.
Has ult, but running back to base.... again after has deaths.
Quite possibly the most useless Mercy I've played with. You want protection, running in the opposite direction. You don't heal half the team. And you have the map awareness skills of a goldfish. I can't help stupid. If you won't heal Winston, I can't protect you. If you don't fly up to Pharah to avoid damage. I can't save you. If you don't come in, we can't get the point and running in the opposite direction means you are now alone with Winston or Genji.

There are the types of rants I enjoy.
The stack was full last night, couldn't join until you gave up on being awake.

I am in the most need of another good Zarya Legendary. I liked her Olympic skins with the blonde ponytail, and wish her Siberian skins removed those terrible goggles.
Hows the 6stack working in comp these days? Or small stack still better? Or you guys just qp'ing?

I got mine a few days ago....I honestly don't know how people play that game for fun.
Mixed results, depends on if we have any Ana mains in the group.

I feel like our success in comp with a 6 stack is dependent on the mode we get. Could just be me, but I feel like we struggle to get past Draws on 2CP as a 6 stack, KOTHs are swingy, but we're more successful at payload maps.
Honestly I just want to play payload maps again. Feels like I've been stuck in KOTH-2CP Hell for a while in both QP and Comp. I think I've played on Eichenwalde with the first point change once.
That skin is awesome! I'm guessing only available on PC?
You can link your Battle.net account to console Overwatch to get the skin.

Assuming you meant Winston (lol wonton), medals don't matter that much because he gets a ridiculous amount of assists due to the spread on his tesla gun and his high mobility.
My biggest tip is to try and isolate important enemy heroes such as Ana with your jump and shield. In general, hopefully your team is following up on your jumps because if not than 90% of the time you'll just be feeding.

Like I said. Group can't win without rezzes. Always out of position and feeding enemy team.
You guys need to get on my level.
I am honored tho that the teams success dies or lives depending on me.
Nerf South Korea. Buff the rest of the world.
According to Overbuff('s PC stats)...
The character with the highest win rate in comp is Symmetra by a fair bit. This is true in every tier and gets more pronounced the higher you go up in rank. The second highest win rate belongs to Torb, and he also holds the #2 slot in every rank except bronze. Also in bronze, the only hero with a win rate above 50% is Sym.
Outside of M and GM, the bottom three win rate heroes are Sombra, Widow and Hanzo in differing orders. In M and GM, Bastion replaces Widow.
A few characters have drastic differences in win rate between GM and everything else. A few examples are Widow, Winston and Ana.

I would assume this, because lots of people play Torb or Sym on the first point. If they hold, win. If they don't, they switch.
I try to get to your level, that's why I go Reaper.
Trump fired comey, I can fire Ned!

You will yell for heals and I will whisper no.
Psh I get heals when I kill people, or more accurately when other people kill people.

It's kind of crazy how difficult it is to adapt to this strat. I had a Symm/Torb defense match where I don't think any of us noticed or missed the lack of a healer. And it's not like the offense was awful or anything--they had several very solid group pushes that ended with no progress because of their inability to take us down.
I feel like there's a nerf in Symmetra's future. The moment a shield generator goes down the entire game changes. If you're not diving to destroy it immediately, every action becomes that much harder. And then say you do destroy it, there's a solid two minute window where it's gone, if that. There's no other ult in the game with such a dramatic and permanent change to the flow of gameplay.

I love wonton, too.
But seriously, the thing with him is to know when to pick him. If there's some snipers or a lot of shields he's likely in a good spot, but Reaper or other high damage heroes (Bastion, or even Torb) can shut him down easily, or distract him to the point that his usefulness is diminished. He's very powerful provided he can out-tank his opponent, but without that he's a giant punching bag.

France has a chance! Maybe!

None of my picks of ZP, Flame, and Monte got picked RIP.
That said Kaplan is a pretty good caster and should be fine, KyKy has been playing pro forever and could be good at selecting the best talent, and Ster was the one most vocal about the problems when he played in the last world cup. Hopefully Ster can help avoid that happening again.
Worst case is that someone like KyKy focuses too much on first generation talent rather than a lot of the new talent than came up while he was in Korea.
I'll also put my preferred team out there, MESR - Seagull - Jake - GrimReality - Adam - Shake. I would also consider Harbleu, Gods, and the many other really good Ana / Zen players in NA Overwatch.
EDIT - I forgot that KyKy isn't an active player right now and is actually the coach for EnVyUs. That's probably better for the committee to be honest.
Genji mains are usually assholes
First tip: Don't taunt after Ulting, haha.

Was it on hollywood or a different map? Because I caught one on hollywood.
You don't have to tell me I was there!

Played a Comp game on Hollywood earlier with a friend who is placed in Gold. The only one not in team chat was the Genji main. Whole round was spent by him saying "I need healing" and "Understood". After we failed to even get on tick, he spams again and picks Bastion on defense, goes right up the enemy spawn, dies, and spams some more. We somehow managed to pull out a Draw anyway.
