I was kicking ass with Pharah, I'll have you know.
I wanted to win that Eich game, I could have declared myself a Zarya pro but our defense just couldn't keep them back. I will settle for being a Mercy and Rein pro. 3 games played and no Orisa for me...
Also it's possible I would have made that first charge as Rein, hard to tell when I'm not him. The charge on defense though that he made past the choke I probably wouldn't have done, that doomed us.

When you lose a game with Owzers on the team it was him failing us.
Always.
It's in the rules.

I believe in you!
Hopefully we can play together this weekend, P5 is almost here.
Ugh that type of Rein :\

One of those rare nights where the games in Competitive were actually better overall than Quickplay - had a 5-stack of GAF in QP and the one random was a Winston who would just jump into the enemy team and say hello. One random. And the other team was a six-stack. Argh!
This was a good match. Too bad my internet went laggy during defense and I had to switch to Lucio instead of Ana - although not sure it would have helped.
Also kicking myself I didn't save our attack round on Anubis - I was at peak performance as Winston in that game. Probably one of the best rounds I've ever played as him. The shield buff is real and helps a ton.
Yeah I'm just used to either me being Rein or Owzers being Rein. It was reflex - I even usually call people by characters instead to prevent that sort of thing but Owzers = Rein in my head apparently.
I'm more upset that I played as Orisa twice and lost both times. I'm never going to prove I'm better at Orisa than Owzers at this rate!

Not everyone is cut out to be an Orisa main, it's okay. I failed to be Orisa all three comp games, it's just awkward trying to pick her sometimes.
Match waiting times can be terrible, even in what you might think are peak times. I'm talking 4 minute plus queues at like 10pm on a Thursday night or on a Sunday. But sometimes it's totally fine and matches start immediately, it's just a bit inconsistent.
I hope he gets a cool football &/or hockey victory pose.

I played qp a shit ton on ps4 s2 and s3 when i dropped lile 300 or 400+ sr and i said im not playing comp again lol
On PC I only play qp if im too scared to comp after having dreadful matches in hopes of not getting queued up with the same players
In the end comp players in general are still better than qp so i just stick to it.

I would have been 1-3 so far that night, but as we were about to win decisively on Route 66, someone DDOS'd the server or something, because everyone teleported around for 30 seconds, then it sent us to King's Row and we got a draw. So, instead, I was 0-3.
Next game I broke my losing streak bringing me to 1-3, and the following game was this:
We lost badly. Thanks so much, Blizzard.
Edit: It was a 3380 level game. And the Symmetra main criticized our hero choices. She never switched.

I noticed the All Heroes tab is broken. Some of my heroes were still at like 46/46 even tho I set it at 70/70 a few times but it didn't save it for all which explained why they felt so sluggish. I was fixing them between matches. Didn't notice for a while because I haven't played some of them in a while.

Sometimes I have problems with that too. Made some changes in the all heroes tab to use the d-pad for emotes and voice lines and it only worked with a few of them. Had to correct the others one by one, boring.
In sensitivity, let's say you have 46/46 in the all heroes tab, if you change that to 70/70 it will only affect the heroes that had that sensitivity set in their tabs. If one of them is at 50/50 for example he won't be affected.

Christ people in my skill bracket can be dumb. Our team was down 0-2- I had mentioned a couple of times that our flankers like genji and winston should target the enemy backline because they were just allowed to heal their beefy frontline unchallenged. They didn't.
So at the start of the third round I pick Winston because he's available, and I quite easily proceed to continuously jump in and just annihilate their supports and various squishy heroes. And we end up winning the remaining 3 rounds pretty damn easily :|

Oic, I guess I'll double check my lesser used heroes next time I play. Pretty annoying I need to fix them one by one.

I gained almost 200 points tonight by grouping with a Bastion-only player and pocket boosting him. I kept the rest of the team alive, too, but it was really fun to have the weight of carrying off my shoulders. Most of the games I never even died. In the games that I did die, it was almost always a Winston. If he's on me it's all over. 
besides that plat (maybe silver?) on your team, everything look normal.

Lucio is still <3
Sounds like something a Junkrat main would say. >.>
This is likely how they live their lives in general..
You know those assholes that fuck up at work constantly but never admit fault? Yeah, that's them. They're all up in your Overwatch.

I obviously have off games were I perform badly. But I'm always willing to try and adapt. If someone tells me my hero isn't working well and something else would be better, I'm very open and willing to listen and adjust.
Most of the time I wait and see what we need for the team, 4/5 times that's a healer of course. Rest of the time it's a tanky hero.

Looking at hero play time now im pretty much a Tank and Heal main now lol

Anyone looking for a player to add to their team on Xbox? Currently 3400 and looking to finally hit grandmaster. I main D.Va. Was a Master last season solo queuing and got up to high 3700 but then went on a bad losing streak. Feel like I need to start playing with a good team if I want a chance at cracking into GM.

They really need to fix this freezing issue on PS4. I've lost about 200 SR because I've had to close the app.
Nuno Pinto

I'll be on today for sure.
You get bonus SR in the first 25 games or so.
I think he lost a lot of points from decay, they probably count those in a different way.
Or maybe it's just because he's batman.

New Transcendence record: 3,801
Jesus. How?
Ana used her grenade so your healing was buffed, but how the hell did they accomplish so much damage in that short period? Noticed they had an Orisa, maybe Hanzo was being powered up by her ult or something (nanoboosted)?

Oh, oops.

Worst matchmaking I've had was a few days ago. Everyone is masters except two people on the enemy team. They are duo queuing together but one is still in placements and the other is gold. Match lasted 5 minutes.

Also Lw Blue vs Meta Athena in about half an hour.
Winner gets 3rd place
Janus is hospitalised so R0ar from the sister team is taking his place

I think the funny thing about this statement is that I often look back at my saved videos and point out things I did right and wrong during a match. As do several other players in this thread do too I assume.

What's the player portait they all seem to have?
Play competitive with me I need to get out of where I'm at. They have been the absolute worst matches I've ever had
