Overwatch General Thread

So, got a POTG as Mercy today, all it was was me healing a Widowmaker from the brink of death and then reviving 2 people who died in front of the payload, honestly surprised but I'll take it.

Also, tried out DVa and she's funnnnn
 
I think I had the best match so far.
First of all I think that there was a group of friends on my team because everyone there had silly names (StupidB**** (since when did TBT have censoring) and WildWaifu stood out to me the most). Skip to 5 minutes later after the game ended and I somehow got POTG. All I did was rez 2 people. .-. And after that when the cards came up, my card got 6 likes the instant it went up. XD It was a short game so I only healed 2,000 HP but still... people respect Mercy that much? Even people on the other team?
 
I'm very conflicted how I feel about Mei. She's fun to use, but an absolute pain in the ass to play against. In capturing points she seems the hardest to kill because you're within an enclosed area and it's easier to get frozen and headshot by her gun. If you're a character with a shorter ranged weapon it's hard to get close without getting caught in her gun. I think they should make her walk slower when she's freezing people with her gun because there just feel like there's no escape once it touches you.

Aw, I always vote for the healer :) Mercy is the best.

Agreed. Mei is fine, and 95% of mei's I've seen play her really well, so I don't think she'd be too hard to use. I've only seen one bad mei and that's because she froze me, didn't headshot me, so I killed her for it.

(Also completely excluding trolls)

No she's balanced. Literally, just stand out of her range and you're fine. If you're in a confined space with Mei, why are you their without your team?

no, her time to kill people is extremely slow. if anything she needs a buff, she is too underpowered to even be used in competitive
She doesn't, the reason she isn't played is because her right click is too difficult to learn over McCree who can do the same thing but usually better.

Healers usually get the nod at the end when I play, unless I'm the one healing then it goes to the McCree with 6 fan the hammer kills.

On that note, I kinda hope they update cards a little bit. At least so 4 gold medals takes precedence over a 50% hook rate.

As a semi-roadhog main, I'll second this. I don't look at hook rate, though, since I do a LOT of risky hooks, I look at enemies hooked.
If I were to actually go for hook accuracy, my average would be a lot higher, because I'd be using the skill 1/3 as much.
 
I posted about that one time, because you're right, McCree does her job better than she can. A McCree nerf may see this changing, but honestly I find her underwhelming. She's like with Hanzo at the bottom of the tier and no one plays them, which is disappointing. I think they need a buff in some way, because at the moment McCree is a better Mei and Widow is a better Hanzo. No one wants to use them in competitive.

Mei has her ice walls that can change the outcome of a game, a self heal that makes her invincible, and unlike McCree, she doesn't have a cool down on her stun/freeze. She's fine. More than fine honestly. McCree is used because he can take down tanks which is invaluable in competitive. Once he loses that, and he will with the nerf coming, they'll be on equal terms.

Hanzo though. I'm not sure, he doesn't really have an option if enemies get close besides a hopeful scatter shot. He does have a quick Ult, able to jump while charging, and can climb walls over Widow but I do think he could use something more. If his damage was just upped on his full charge and a lot more on his uncharged bow, he could be pretty viable. Something like 150 damage on body shots at full charge and 50-75 on no charge?

I have had the discussion about hanzo vs widow fairly often with my friends. I like widow so much more, because I absolutely cannot get the hang of that arrow arc, but that's a preference thing. When I get a headshot with hanzo, it's 90% luck, so it doesn't feel good, but when I get a headshot with widow, it feels amazing because I know I did that myself. I'm still not great with her, though. I need more practice.
 
Me along with two other Winstons aggressively escorted the payload to victory and earned this beautiful victory portrait.

This guy on our team was complaining we didn't have a healer... but we're in the weeklies where you can't pick your character?

The weeklies have been really good honestly - It makes me play characters I haven't yet.

Probably the biggest multikill I've gotten. I got a quintuple kill with Hanzo's ultimate.
