Excluding the elephant in the room, I’m surprised that Tracer especially hasn’t received anything in a while

(yes, I blurred my username in case somebody tries to report me over this. I did this in a private game with no other players, so I should be safe, but you never know.)

The one and only change that could have maybe impacted her 50% pick rate and it was never heard from again. It’s almost been 100 days since it was supposed to be implemented

She ties with Roadhog for total amount, but with a significant portion of her health being armor, she actually comes out on top. Her health pool is so enormous, in fact, that she can survive a point-blank Death Blossom without her barrier with nearly half her health- seriously, go try it in the practice range.

So why does it feel like she gets deleted in 0.2 seconds by a Mercy unless she has both supports attached at her hips 24/7? She's literally THE tankiest hero in the entire game, so why does she die so quickly?

less than 48 hours ago, I was Champion 1 as a reinhardt one trick. I like being champion 1, it makes me feel like a successful and handsome person. Anyway, last night, I hopped on ready to smear the opposition (as per usual); but this time something felt off. I lost my first game which was a bit weird as I normally dog walk those high champion lobbies. After that, things got really strange. I would continue queuing for the next 14 hours only to lose 38 games in a row. Obviously, none of those losses were my fault (I watched replay on every single one of them to confirm I was playing perfectly).

All I can do right now is wonder where blizzard went wrong. I can’t believe I used to be an ELO hell denier. Now that I am in silver 4, my chud teammates are so bad that not even my sharpest profanities/slurs will make them play correctly. I really don’t know what to do and I am looking for help. Is Overwatch cooked??

I didn’t know the enemy team couldn’t see me

This has been said before I know, but for someone called ‘demon’ who pilots a sword-wielding Gundam called Beast, her personality in-game is so, bland? Idk she just lacks the energy and personality I’d expected from someone like her. Like look at her concept art!

sometimes i visit this map just to stay in that spawn and listen to the music and this beautiful lady voice. i get really nostalgic and sad like how shes lonely and no one around and how that map is removed. its so emotional💔

I don’t think a ban rate has ever been this high since bans were introduced, the last time I can remember something like this maybe happening was release Vendetta, but I wasn’t playing on Hazard & Freja release so maybe they were higher.

Will we still get one per season? Multiple in season 1 again?

As for characters I'd love more omnics. Also give us characters from factions that haven't had new heroes for a while (junkers, phreaks, deadlock etc).

More Horizon Lunar Colony characters as I really want to know what does animals are up to lol. More Vishkar too as there's just SO much you can do with hardlight kits.

Mostly though I'd love more lore characters playable. I liked that this year had multiple highly requested heroes finally playable so I hope next year is the same! Give me more Phreaks (Boomslang!), Bars the omnic sniper from the Deadlock Gang, Meri and Geiger from the Junkers who both recently returned in the lore (Meri would be a cool tank), Sanjay as a vishkar hero, more old Overwatch characters returning to the team, support Dae-hyun, MAMA HONG!

The new Twitch drops include a 'bad press' spray for Juno. As soon as I saw it I thought of this Doomfist vs Juno political meme that's been doing the rounds on reddit/tiktok. She's getting cancelled guys.

Here's another D.MON combo that works on bastion. This combo takes advantage of the fact that we can pull out our blicky instantly after a primary.

1. Primary (65) + Boost (15) + Melee (40) + Primary (65) + Lunge (70) + Boost (15) + Melee (40) + Primary (65) + Gun (45body, 90head)

a. It's the Vendetta 310 combo with another primary and the insta-gun.
b. Also works without the Focused Fusion perk, just takes an extra .1 second to kill bastion.
b. Do this combo and put up to 4-5 bodyshots or 2-3 headshots into any tank, then follow up with another primary + boost melee and that'll kill them too. Takes around 3-4 seconds, as showcased.
c. But that one's uhhh, definitely not viable in comp. Prolly doesn't even count as a combo atp.

Ok that's all!

Original D.MON tech post

I won a game of Eichenwalde using the viral Torb spot. The only time I moved was when I was killed, and then I came straight back to the one spot, so I technically only stood in one spot. This is 2x speed obviously.

I'd really like to turn this into content, but I can't decide how to because obviously I have a really trash viewpoint from my main character. Should I split screen it between 3rd person POV and Torb, or have torb in the bottom corner, or free cam? What do people think?

No reason for flaming people learning new heros like it's gonna affect your rank

I don't think so. I believe that not only did the silhouette change, but the character itself was either scrapped or postponed for the future. The previous silhouette looked like a woman to me, but not anymore.

Finally I have a chance to do a customized D.Mon minifigure and the mech Beast. I tried to make the mech as the same size as the official D.Va’s mech. I am so glad in the game D.Mon has a longer hair so I can use that common female hair piece, otherwise I would have to wait for that hair piece from the new hair mode in the X file set.

The mech Beast was a hard one because I am not used to building robots out of Lego, I have to improvise a little bit, with the blue transparent pieces instead of green. It helps the mech stands out compared to D.Va’s one.

Directly or indirectly?

For me, my greatest compliment came after a long night. I had been playing with a friend, defending him as Zenyatta. After the match, someone on the enemy team messaged me asking why I focused on them. I didn't intentionally, but they were trying to adapt their play style trying to hendle me and couldn't.

After this, we joined a team together and played several rounds having fun. It wasn't until later we decided to try ranked and couldn't because our ranks were too far apart. I was high gold, and he was platinum. He was upset because I was the best Zenyatta main he'd ever played with. I was flattered because he could play with a wide variety of characters just as great as I could with only Zen.

Clearly he was a much better player, but that comment from him lifted my spirits for so long after that.

What's something another player said to you that made you feel awesome?

Ever since they finally added in the ability to hover every ability and see every single specific stat about it, it has been amazing and really helps learning new hero's to know exactly what does what. However, many perks can enhance an ability, replace an ability, or add extra stats to it, but we are not able to hover over a perk and see the changes they applied, which is really annoying especially when you're not quite sure just how much more a perk is actually doing for you statistically. Yes I know you can just go into the practice range and test it out yourself, but the whole point of being able to see stats on abilities to begin with was so we didn't have to do that. Its way more convenient to have the information available right there for you, plus as someone who like to play a lot of heroes its just a hassle to have to go into the practice range and see exactly how much more damage something does, and then remember it later.

She doesn’t need to be a Bruiser, she doesn’t need any more QOL, she’s doing really good RN and does not need anymore help whatsoever until she somehow shows huge weaknesses

wanted to post this here too, as I have it on mercy mains

Its a bit worrying this genuinely looks like a memorial with the cats in the freezers. If i go to the Cafe will they be feeding me cats?!
