Comp doesn't bother me, positioning and their inability to captialize on their characters does.
Fucking Soldiers that can't aim while I'm buffing them. Roadhog behind enemy lines and dies so I can't heal him. Zarya using their Ult on a single person. Zen not knowing who to protect while ulting.
All in my last game we had all of those and lost in the 5th round of KOTH.
Sometimes I feel like people pick heroes they're not good with and that's just death. Some hero they use probably got picked and they decide to just choose whoever. Seen some pretty braindead heroes in my games who don't seem to know what they're doing.
I was lucky enough to carry to a draw. We had the opportunity to take it 2-1 but we had a widow one trick who got one pick and didn't switch off until the last minute to lucio, then switched to zenyatta when we needed speed boost the most.
We could have actually held them off at the first point but no one wanted to play Rein.I would have but I think it was best now that I stayed on Tracer.
Hate when that happens - I've made sure I'm OK at one character in each sub set (Pharah, Zarya, Junk, Lucio (Ana/Zen at a stretch); but every now and then I'll end up having to play as someone I've barely played before.
Though sometimes it works out...was forced to play Soldier and ripped up.
Yea, I'm good with at least one hero in each category. so i'm quite flexible now.

I don't understand why people play DPS if they can't kill anything. In three rounds of Lijiang I think I saw our Soldier and Hanzo come up on the kill feed like three times combined. Why the fuck are you playing DPS.
doing QP? i might be on soon

Then ask to trade lol
tbh theres really no excuse in that situation. If its not working then trade roles with someone else
you know they're going to give her 400hp/400armour in the next patch
Real talk, would 100 extra health break her?
People are stubborn and think they'll do better next round, especially people that only DPS

Ha! Got Platinum. Numbani seems to be my map today, got two victories on it to boost me into Plat. Now on to Diamond, maybe.
Sure. But if you're not doing well against a particular comp, especially in competitive, maybe switch off and let somebody else try their luck instead of sticking on the same character for all three rounds and doing nothing except dying over and over?

Only thing that makes me more heated then people not in the voice channel are people that can't admit it ain't working for them as whatever character. Especially the ones that auto lock DPS at the jump.

Win streaks must be nice. I don't think I've ever won more than three games in a row. MMR likes to pepper in absolutely horrible games for me to make sure I don't ever have too much fun.
I've never gone over 5 minutes in like 900 hours of playing, so yeah, that's broken."Quick" play...
I can go play Titanfall 1, a game many people consider to be dead, and find a game faster than this. This is fucking broken.

I (as Zen) always give my little Torb buddies an Orb when needed. Those turrets of his keep me from getting ganked unawares by the Tracers and Sombras and Genjis of the world.
I'll Orb a Bastion but he is very needy and has self-heal, so I tend to leave him longer to heal the team.

Every. Single. Time.
Or you can put the orb on them at full health, in which case... "I HAVE ALL THE HEALTH IN THE WORLD!! *YOLO Charges. Dies.*
A Healing Orb is not an Ana Ult, Rein.

i had a game once where this sombra was in the perfect position and i was playing ana and i was gunna nano boost her but i was like "nah sombra? lol what a waste"
i felt so bad that i didn't nano boost that sombra that in the next round i went out of my way to nano boost her, it's not even like she asked or anything, i just felt so bad about having that inner dialogue and being mean in my head that i wanted to make it up to her.
lol

Congrats!
Are you going to start ow immediately? Aren't you gonna rest first? Your face must be tired with all that gaming.
Now we all know. Next time you nano-boost one of us we are going to assume that you thought bad things about us and are trying to make up for it.

I placed straight into diamond in S2 with a fresh account.
I'm doing my 2nd fresh account this season, I placed into silver (I wasn't throwing), and climbed 500 SR in 6 games. Reaching diamond should not be a problem either.

Like level 25 accounts? I have no clue how anyone does it at that starting point.I got diamond at around 35, haven't done shit since then...Started at 2460ish.
Well...did the Sombra make you proud when she got nanoed?
Take 76 and apply the pressure

Same, and I've had some combo of Widow, Bastion, and Soldier on every team. And yet I'm solo-healing as Zen and am the only one targeting her. Pharahs are not to be trifled with, Boys!
And to think people wanted to give her a helmet to stop headshots

Here is the comp game that I thought we did pretty well on attack wise... I was with Batman, Owzers and Pollux.

Sucks that we ended up losing the match... I blame our random Rein.

Why was Owzers playing Zarya and batman Pharah? Why are you guys throwing?
Poor randoms.
I loved when the random Rein charged into his death and Pollux said "no Owzers" loool
UltimaPooh
Member
Haha. Yeah. We all had a good laugh at that.
They actually did good as those things! I think he was about to go Orisa until I begged him not to.
Also Owzers is like a baby pro at Mercy now.
The McRee was good but I don't think our Rein knew when to charge and when not to.
1-1-1 Tonight. The lost and draw should have easily been wins. The lost happened once I died. I knew if I died at the point, it was over because twice they had someone go right for the cart and I was the only one to respond. Got a bad hit, died, and exactly that happened. Our team folded in less than 10 seconds without me supporting. Yet held out 4v6, 5v6, 3v5 prior with me up.
Draw was pretty painful too. Another case of zero awareness going. I can handle the Dva breaking through, but a McCree literially walked through our tanks, dps, and back to me. Zero heals, zero tank, zero dps came. Actually got the McCree, but couldn't kill the Dva. Our turn again and I can't solo heal 3 people and myself while our Mercy just sticks on the Pharah for the entire time. Specifically, I can't fucking heal myself.
Win though was nice, our Mercy was good and our tanks always gave me those 2 or 3 seconds I needed to flank and kill their healers from behind. Communication was on point in that one.
It feels a lot like DOTA where the general awareness of players is extremely poor. I'm not particularly skilled as a player where I know most are better, but I do know I have high map awareness. So the babysitting role is what I get stuck in. It's why I prefer Ana support since Sleep is such a powerful tool. But when I fights are based on if I manage to beat the Dva who ran through our tanks again, it gets frustrating.

He's evolving.
I'm going to assume that us dissing him was the reason for that, we made him stronger.

Obviously... It was tough love that got him there.
