Yeah, if he dropped to 2200 he will drop out of diamond.

"Lucio use my shield to stay safe"
"CAN'T STOP WON'T STOP AAAAAAAA"
its like saying every rank is elo hell except when you're SR5000
Yeah but up there you get xGODSLAYERx so eh.
Intresting to see how much the same person with two accounts can vary in SR. Seen multiple examples of this now. Keep us updated as you keep playing, very intresting to see.
If you stay with around 1000SR differenc between your two accounts, something is horrible wrong with the rankings.

Quick play is such a cesspool. Is Blizzard fucking blind or what? The game needs a mode for assholes who want random team comps. Oh what, there is arcade and custom games, but everyone wants to shit on Quick play.

yea lemme just hop into those cancerously bad arcade modes to play heroes i probably have 0 playtime on. sounds fun to me.
I was in match with two top 500 players and a dude who was 4000. I almost had 5 golds as zen. They couldn't aim at a tracer to save their lives either. Dude goes junkrat despite being against a pharah, Zarya, and Hanzo. I get its qp but there a certain things I feel should be second nature once you reach a certain rank
They could be 4k lucio or rein mains. You dont have to be an aiming god to be 4k. They were most likely fucking around though.
Expected better.

Same. Usually Mery or Ana. But not so much tanks, there usually are Hogs, Reins and D.Va's tho. I can't complain since i barely pick tanks these days.
She's kinda situational. Probably best if the enemy goes dive comp so you can peel for whoever gets dived on. Can also use to contest high ground but not by yourself.
Don't dive unless you are after a support that's alone or a target that need a few bullets to be killed. If diving don't work then just be Dm bot on the front lines.

useless as a solo tank; needs to be in support of winston or reinhardt
good peel for your supports since DM is a powerful ability
avoid frontlining big teamfights since your bulk works against you, separate fights into several smaller skirmishes to take better advantage of your mobility and harass to pick off healers.

She is not very reliable atm, way too many heroes that can destroy her easily, she can do work in KotH maps tho, just stick with your team and constantly harass the enemy to load your ulti, boost in to secure kills, use your ulti, rinse and repeat.
As above said try and position yourself behind the enemy in big teamfights, better chance at getting their supports killed. Never try and be the spotlight to the enemy, her HS area is massive.
That's because nicotine is a stimulant.

LOL that is actually happening in quick play. I remember someone even telling me that he was playing Ana for her gold gun. A lot of people in quick play don't care about theirs or the other team's comp; they just pick and run to the choke point to die. I am trying to be good with multiple characters, but it is hard to pick them when I run into teams where no one wants to play tank or healer.
No really. Do you want me to have competitive matches with characters that I haven't had much experience in competitive situations against proper teams? A lot of stuff in QP solo queue don't apply in comp; aim, tricks, combos and similar mechanical stuff can be learned in practice range and custom games easily.
I had to adjust some bad solo play habits when I started having serious competitive matches. I can't just try to be competent with a character without taking full advantage of a proper team that has people who don't die instantly and healers who heal EVERYONE--if there were healers to begin with.
What I am trying to say is, I am against the idea of making quick play a pick any hero and play regardless of team kind of mode. There should be at least some level of competence there. I personally find it boring to pick random heroes, or my favorite ones and just run mindlessly without switching and adjusting--it doesn't have to be serious and stressful like competitive.
I just had a guy who played Widow for 80%+ of his playtime, and he doesn't play tanks or support. How can someone like that have fun? I know people have different tastes, fetishes and weird boners, but that is some boring shit honestly. I just find some user profiles to have hilarious stats.
Yeah DM is very strong. I find some dive characters kinda hard to be effective with because of the timing. It works with aggressive teams, but not poke at the choke meta. I just had a game with Winston where I had good positioning and instigating attempts. I had to tell the time to push with me after I jump in; it took a couple of tries but it worked in solo queue QP (nice people really). I still need to play dive heroes more and learn from high level footage; timing and positioning isn't easy to get for me yet.
I'm on PC. I did face the same issue when I was playing my placement matches and the soldier/mccree in our team would be unable to kill their Pharah.
Playing as Ana allowed to snipe kill the low health enemies, enemy Pharah and genjis. It was kinda awesome as my team mate DPS could focus on the front line.
I do like that better. This was an interesting experiment nonetheless.
If you have the money for it, I'd suggest you give it a try. It's fun to have an account where you don't worry as much during competitive and try new things.
For my main account I play mostly Ana, Zarya and Tracer and I'm always super try hard mode. But this time for my Smurf I decided to play DPS Ana. I was more active as far as being aggressive and trying things I normally wouldn't which be it luck or random events, they worked out.
I'm sure my rank is gonna fluctuate between 2800-3200. For now I'm going back to my main account and see if I can get off of 2200 SR.... lol

Um, about only picking DPS in quick play, I actually had wins with completely shitty DPS comps. I remember someone telling us that we need this and that but QP solo queue randomness LOL. Junkrat is the current meta. Defense heroes REJOICE (incoming Split gifs).

See a player install lock Rein, cool.
...Never see a shield, ever. Just charges nonstop.
Should be a vote that forces a player off a character.

I lose interest in multiplayer games during holidays and long breaks. There is just something about playing one or two QP Overwatch games (or any multiplayer game) after a long day of work or right after school/college.

My main account that I've had since the start is stuck in platinum, 2700-2900. I use that to play with coworkers/friends and sometimes solo q. I have another account that I started once I learned how to play the game. That one sits anywhere between 3700-4000s.
I can't for the life of me push my main account out of platinum. Blizz matchmaking hates me once I hit 2900.

Didn't see anyone answer it, so am I dreaming or did they remove the Sombra ult overriding enemy hacked healthpacks?
It was removed. Probably wasn't meant to do it.

It had so much utility tho and it still cost her an entire ult. that's really disappointing, it made her ult a lot more of a tactical decision, like do you desperately need that health pack to break their defences etc.
