Overwatch |OT9| There is no Cow Hero

Dorado OT vs teleporter glitch. Please excuse the atrocious gameplay and thank my team for the carry, believe it or not this is the best I was playing all game. I played worse than shit on defense, really bad on offense, and just a bit better in OT. One of my worst games for sure, but still a crazy one. One of Owzers better Mercy games for sure. Thanks team!

We held moderately easily on defense if you're curious.

So I guess 2cp and assault/escort maps are auto draws then? I got nothing but draws in plat on my smirf.

I've gotten 3 in tonight's games.

12-7-3 tonight. Moved up from 2175 to 2318. 409-409-44 on the season.

Had another good Symmetra night and somehow managed to not be completely shitty with Roadhog.

Fuck this gold hell. Ive been trapped here since placements and matchmaking refuses to give me a competent team when I get close to platinum. 2436 to 2319. season high was 2488. Placed 2386. Ended last season at 2678.
 
Comp really has ruined me for quick play. Playing with a triple queue to knock out some trophies, and dear god are some of these DPS/Tanks terrible.
 
"Switch off Soldier."

"I have three gold medals."

"Gold doesn't matter."

Lose 0-3. Because Widow won't switch and healers can't stay alive. But no it's the soldier.

Some of the most interesting games I've played have all been in our PS4 stacks recently, all those ults and they couldn't get a full wipe.

Switching to pc just for overwatch seems like overboard but to each their own.

Overwatch on console is still a great experience regardless of what the elitist crowd tries to preach.

Enjoy whatever platform you want to play on.

That's a LOT of games to play in one season, damn!

I ended up 2-3 last night, first loss was because my team decided to push up to enemy spawn on Oasis when the game was 2-2 and and enemy team had 85% on the point, of course my team dies despite my pleas and we have no ults to take back the CP, I should have stopped there.

I've dropped around 50 SR from the weekend so not a huge loss, should hopefully make it back today and keep climbing. I'm a good streak away from Diamond!

Nuts to believe I dropped to 1900's at the start of the season after a terrible losing streak in solo q.

If I could find a cheap PC that could run OW I'd switch just for it. Controller aim and lack of communication feels like an artificially low skill ceiling.

Is Twitch unwatchable for anyone else?

I've tried switching browsers, restarting my laptop, different computers, resetting my internet connection, lowering the video quality but it freezes and buffers every few minutes. Does anyone know what the problem is? Anyone else have this problem or is it just me?
 
Taimou needs to start flexing a little more or nV needs a new DPS player. Every successive meta makes him stick out like a sore thumb more and more. It sucks because he's an amazing hitscan player but good aim isn't enough anymore.

Zarya is off meta now? I've been out of the competitive scene. for awhile.

Hoon seems insane.

She's not in the most prominent meta comps right now, but she's a good counter to certain things on certain maps. On maps where she doesn't have mobility issues you'll see specialists run her.

Saying she's off-meta I think is just wrong. She's just a more specialized pick than she has traditionally been.

Taimou is doing more or less what he needs to tbh. Effect is the one who shoul dprobably be flexing.

Also Envy just used Sombra on 2CP and that's it. I told y'all she's broke on this mode. MA not having that strat is outright bad at this point. I'd imagine after this they are going to drill it.

Seriously, I don't get how a game as popular as Overwatch is such a failure at twitch/esport views... Not even 15k views on a EnVyUs game, it's crazy.

I'm not familiar with Effect so if he's a Tracer one-trick that might be an issue.

But he's definitely carrying Envy when Chips isn't on Sombra.

Ish. I don't think anybody on Envy is really carrying or making huge differences solo. In general they live and die by whether or not they can be stable moving around the map. They're historically one of the most teamwork based groups out of the T1 teams.

I feel hopeless.

I can't aim for shit like the other people who can 360' fucking McCree headshot me at the other side of the map. Even when trying Soldier that is supposed to just spray in their direction, I miss 90% of the shot. With a Bastion I just die the moment they notice me.

If I play Winston or Symmetra, I just fucking die immediately because the team just INSTANTLY all aim for me whenever I get close.

I can't play Reinhardt, everyone just runs away from and my charges ALWAYS miss.

The literally only character I can play is Torbjörn, he places a turret that aims for me, and sometimes I actually manage to put it in a spot where it wont be instantly killed by a Hanzo or Widow. And when I do pick him everyone scorns me.

Meta Athena's space control was really bad this series. They basically lost at their tanks not controlling space well. There were also a lot of options to deal with their problems they just didn't take for reasons I have to assume are character pool or not having prepared strats.

The fact they didn't run Winston/Genji on Dorado should set off alarm bells.

-Not running Sombra on 2CP
-Sticking to hitscan + Rein on Dorado
-Not running a mobility comp on Hollywood
-Complete lack of Genji when they had mobility issues
-No Saya Tracer?

Yep, I have no interest in moving into PC either. It's a fun romp for PTR. Not like the community is any better.
