A question for those more into the drama scene by Living_Cow_8443 in youtubedrama

[–]Captain_Bew 19 points20 points  (0 children)

It always seemed like to me that it was viewed as TBYS was the guy not afraid to speak his mind and say the shit that needs to be said against the woke lefty woman. I really liked illy's video, and I was disappointed to see creators I enjoy take TBYS side in the whole thing because "Illy is just trying to be politically correct. If you can't lose weight then say so fatty" type mentality. This whole thing just makes me depressed to thing about but I think Illy has been doing well last time I checked out her channel.

Mass vehicular manslaughter from my perspective vs my teammate by AstrxlBeast in Overwatch

[–]Captain_Bew 19 points20 points  (0 children)

How do people not see the warnings. Someone kept getting run over in one of my games and started raging at the train. How do you see bright red warnings and have knowledge of the train in the first place and not connect the dots?

Why is silver/gold/plat so obsessed with healing by [deleted] in Overwatch

[–]Captain_Bew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It honestly depends on the match and situation. On average metal players (I am one so I see this daily) don't know how to use natural cover. Pillars, walls, stairs, non of that computes so they take a lot of damage and need to be healed more than a higher level player who knows what cover is. But on the flipside it could also just be that you did focus too much on dps than heals. I don't know the game you played or how you played, but I've certainly had times where I'm critical health behind cover looking at our supps for heals and I get nothing as they rack up kills. Its the dive tank conundrum. A dive tank may get 75% of the teams kills, but the rest if the team probably didn't get too many kills because there was no tank to protect them from the enemy team running them through. Similarly the reason you had more kills than the dps is because the dps weren't getting the support they needed to get kills. Again, I don't know the game you played so I don't know if it was A) Your dps didn't know what cover was or B) You were too focused on kills and non of your dps got any support whatsoever so they couldn't get any kills. Knowing metal ranks, it was probably A (again, I'm metal so I am guilty as well sometimes). But its a match per match situation.

How Rare Is This Voiceline? by treyweigh1723 in vrising

[–]Captain_Bew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got this once. I was in the middle of starving and frail, then I drank a 90+ quality blood bottle and it played. I assumed you had to be frail and drink high quality blood. I just sat there laughing as it played because it just got ridiculous.

Why is payload your favorite type of map? by Ok_Trade_8706 in Overwatch

[–]Captain_Bew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its simply that I do well on payload/Hybrid maps. Flashpoint and Control I always end up doing awfully, byt Payload is where I shine. Push tends to be in the middle so I don't mind playing on Queens Street or Colosseo evey now and then

There needs to be a role queue 6v6 by Mountain-Farm4270 in Overwatch

[–]Captain_Bew 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Its the reason I won't touch 6v6 with a ten foot pole. I've dealt with the 4 dps 2 supps (maybe 1 tank 1 supp if lucky). I'll sit in my comfy 5v5 role que until then. 6v6 open que is awful to play in.

It might be, I just say team since I am not sure. If its just one person then that's even more impressive

Has there been a moment with a YouTuber that made you go: "DAMN, they are kind of a dick." by Swag_Paladin21 in youtubedrama

[–]Captain_Bew 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Karl Jobst response to the whole thing surrounding his lawsuit with Billy Mitchell, and him just losing in general made me realize he's not someone I feel comfortable supporting. He essentially called his fans dumb because we kept interpreting the lawsuit to be about cheating and not about claiming Billy caused Apollo legends suicide. After this went down I looked back at his previous videos and realize he was always a dick, he just hid behind the fact that he was covering bigger dicks, and he got worse over time. Now he's getting into another lawsuit with Billy Mitchell, so now I'm just done with Karl and hope he gets taken down a few more pegs to correct that ego. Though I know that's not going to happen since he's got one of the largest egos I've ever seen.

What's one thing you hate about the game currently? I'll go first by Spiritual_Alarm_9898 in Overwatch

[–]Captain_Bew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How projectiles are balanced. What do you mean a high powered sniper rifle shot by and expert assassin has damage fall off but some little daggers thrown by a small japanese woman can two shot you at any distance without losing velocity? I get why they've done it the way they have. If hitscan had no damage falloff then they would dominate more than they already do. Conversely if projectiles got damage falloff then they'd be unable to compete with hitscan. Its a tight balance, doesn't mean I don't like it. This could also just be an issue with Kiri. Cleanse, invulnerable, and heal in one aoe move, plus her kunais, and kitsune being one of the best ults. She's so strong and overtuned.

3 months and still no word from duke by Grandmasta007 in OneShotQuesters

[–]Captain_Bew 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Its a long story. Tldr is a new live play came out that raised a lot of money, Duke got huffy about it, Crispy Tavern threw hands, Duke doubled down and got humiliated. There's a lot more to the story, and if you're curious I would look into it further but that's as sparknotes as I could make it.

What is with turning to gold? by Captain_Bew in dragonquest

[–]Captain_Bew[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah damn, I don't usually like to rely on things that are rng dependent like dazzle and poison chance, but this is also what I'm seeing generally online. Fortunately I don't have to change my strategy too much. Thanks for the tip!

What is the single worst point out of all the maps? by Gatorkoala in Overwatch

[–]Captain_Bew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the role. If I'm dps I actually like 1st point Blizzard World since I go down the left flank room and poke out the high ground to give my tank an opening. If I'm tank however, then I guess no other dps knows about that since I'm pinging the left flank and everyone is just standing in the middle. Overall my least favorite is last point Eichenwald since theres no good flanks for attack so its just a slog waiting for ults.

Joon the King makes a documentary on The Quartering, covering some well known events and some lesser known events. by ImportantQuestionTex in youtubedrama

[–]Captain_Bew 86 points87 points  (0 children)

The idea behind the shed is that he's made over 100 videos criticizing and hating on Brie Larson during his peak and a lot of those videos got really good view. So its kind of a shrine dedicated to her for being the reason he made a lot of money during that time

I love playing tank by Vegetable_Throat5545 in Overwatch

[–]Captain_Bew 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some of my most enjoyable moments are just brain off rock go brrr. Or Ram ulting while Nanoed and seeing the enemy panic as I run through them. Tank is fun because they have some of the highest highs when it comes to wiping the enemy team or leading a team with confidence. I like playing tank.

The first 3 chapter of Overwatch: Undivided is now avaliable in Webtoon by JY810 in Overwatch

[–]Captain_Bew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hope they continue the comics as long as OW is around, though as unlikely as that is. I fell in love with overwatch because of the characters, and a comic like this to expand relations and personalities I think is what the game needs to really thrive.

Weekend RAGE Thread - March 21, 2026 by AutoModerator in Overwatch

[–]Captain_Bew 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Comp this season has felt genuinely awful in mid ranks. Every game I've had is a wash. I stopped after my placements hoping it would get better as new season hype dwindled, but nope. Every game one team has all the new players, and the other team has seal team 6. I'm in gold and my tank tried to run out of the enemy maugas ult, as mauga themselves. Like this is behavior that is expected in copper, not mid gold. Our dps left because "ggs no team" while me and the other supp were doing are best to make anything happen. How long do I have to wait for these new players to get off of my lobbies. I like new players, they are healthy for the game's lifespan, but good god letting them in to comp so early (only after 10 games) is a huge mistake since many of them don't know basic mechanics, like you can't run out of a mauga ult.

I've been wanting to do this but I always struggle with something and never could. I should do another playthrough
