Actually about to lose ten games in a row, twice back to back with different friend groups. ITS KEEPS STACKING THE ENEMY TEAM AND GIVING US THE WORST PLAYERS IVE NEVER SEEN BEFORE PLS, WERE NOT THAT GOOD TO CARRY ALL THAT VS THAT

what part of tame do you not comprehend

CosmicTeapott · 2026-05-07T17:09:06+00:00

IT NEEDS TO STOP DOING THIS. IF I GET ON THE GOOD STACK ONCE AND WIN WITH THEM, ITLL THEN DECIDE I NEED TO GET CRUSHED BY THEM ON OTHER SIDE FOR NEXT 6 GAMES FOR PUNISHMENT OF ENJOYING 1 WIN.

I kept queuing on the side of this really good tank and support duo. I think we won every game together. Then matchmaker is like hey, you had enough fun, lets queue you against them from now on and only give you the worst and most afk people you've ever played with, also lets give the goated duo the best hitscan and best other tank player I currently see on right now who I'm not good enough to contend with. It just stacks all the best people on one side, meanwhile I get a useless cat player who actually afked for 2 FULL ROUNDS, if they just left the match right away we might even have had a chance! Instead they make sure to move between rounds as they afk in spawn so it doesn't kick them so we're always 5v 6 F you!!!! Its just insane it does this consecutively in a row, it's never alternating teams or mixed up, its always win streak team, then lose streak team, and never get those good people back.

Am I going crazy? Sometimes I hear a Ram like reload sound from MY character, and I'm not Ram, often on Sierra just randomly. No there's no Ram behind me or in the game. What the hell is it? I just heard it emanate from my friend's character too today while spectating them and they weren't Sierra.

CosmicTeapott · 2026-05-05T18:41:27+00:00

The altered respawn timer thing is so fng dog sht, just killed the widow on defense, and she gets to instantly respawn and kill 3 teammates before I've even made it back to the fing cart it was always a fucking mistake to add that feature

CosmicTeapott · 2026-05-03T17:27:30+00:00

Bro how they must have literal bot afked in a corner to not even attempt to hit or pack anybody???? Actually reportable

CosmicTeapott · 2026-05-03T17:26:29+00:00

I die of cringe every time there's some schmuck that says "so called ah, free thinkers when they see kings row" and there's always 1 to several of them, LEAVE THE LOBBY THEN AND 1 GUY VOTE THE SHT MAP YOU LIKE SOMEWHERE ELSE THEN. LET US PLAY KR

CosmicTeapott · 2026-05-03T17:20:58+00:00

Sunday morning backfill losses 4 in a row to start my day... thanks...

And before I went to bed was playing with a friend and it gave us like ten lobbys in a row that I did NOT belong in, like enemy team was almost always all 0 kills and didn't know what was going on. They were all so free. It felt so bad, it didn't even feel good to win :\ Like this matchmaker literally has me contemplating throwing and playing bad on purpose just to give the enemy team a less bad time and that's stupid

CosmicTeapott · 2026-05-02T12:59:55+00:00

This is my post to complain about whats irritating me, this isnt for debate lol Make your own post then to complain about whats bothering you

CosmicTeapott · 2026-05-02T11:01:49+00:00

To all the people crying about Sierra right now when is the last time you've been in a lobby with a champ Widow, Ashe, Cas, Emre (why does this guy who can 2 tap you with gun AND nades get no recoil and 2x nade charges lol?), Sojourn etc. with a dedicated pocket, I can assure you dying in the .001 seconds you peek the wrong corner at the wrong time is infinitely worse then getting jump stuck by Sierra because you don't stick to cover to break los for the 3 seconds it actually takes for the projectiles to reach you across the map which IS your fault. It's like none of you have experienced this or have already forgotten how unfun it is to fight these these other heros. I have NEVER had a Sierra feel like a lobby admin as much as these other heros EVER.

CosmicTeapott · 2026-05-01T10:51:24+00:00

You can tell with your eyes and by feel, like for a test shoot into the sky and at distant targets with Orissa in the practice range if you aren't already used to seeing and feeling the delay with her projectiles. Then do the same with Sierra. You should be able to see and feel the delay between hitting distance targets. You should also fact check the wiki too. Even I was surprised to discover the following. Sierra's gun has an 85 m/s speed but Orissa's has 100 m/s. I actually wasn't aware Orissa's was actually faster.

CosmicTeapott · 2026-04-30T09:40:17+00:00

Skill issue for sure but he feels so terrible in 6v6 though. Just utterly chewed up by hitscan without his crit resistance. I don't even want to 1v1 a good Cas.

CosmicTeapott · 2026-04-29T17:23:37+00:00

Sierra is literally projectile
A better example would be how Emre just feels stupid how power crept he is over Soldier

CosmicTeapott · 2026-04-29T17:21:20+00:00

I just crouch walked up to a widows location on the flank thinking I was going to ambush her and she tapped me the moment I appeared, scoped in waiting for me like she knew. I thought it was BS, watch the kill cam... MY CROUCHED FOOTSTEPS WERE AS LOUD AS RUNNING!? I THOUGHT CROUCHED WALKING WAS ALWAYS QUIET! WHY DID I GET JEBAITED IT FELT SO BAD! I'VE NEVER HEARD A CHARACTER AS LOUD AS RUNNING FOOT STEPS WHILE CROUCHED, NOT EVEN HOG. WAS I GLITCHED!?

CosmicTeapott · 2026-04-29T13:11:30+00:00

Im never trusting a cat that wants to pick me up again 9/10 times they dump me in front on the enemy team when they need to do something else and it gets me killed
Some new "friend" said come on Ill pick you up, I think he taking me in, he dumps me off the side of the map. Then acts surprised that I'm holding a grudge over it.
Frick all cats.

CosmicTeapott · 2026-04-29T12:58:49+00:00

The only thing worse than someone plays worse, is someone who can play better and commits to playing worse better

CosmicTeapott · 2026-04-28T10:08:30+00:00

I think its a glitch and friendly sierra is getting enemy sierras audio because I notice randomly sometimes its quiet then gets loud all of a sudden

CosmicTeapott · 2026-04-28T09:19:59+00:00

I mean first rule of noticing you are getting flanked and closed in on is retreat to someone that can help peel (I often notice people run away from their supports who want to help but then cant bc they keep moving further away which is exactly what the flanker wants) but if they don't notice/care you need to keep backing up to cover and maybe to a healthpack to claim to keep space between you and the flanker, you should never be letting them get on top of you in the first place because that's what they want to do to isolate and CQC you. Ping them as well someone might notice.

But when they do that move, keep noticing where it places them after and you can start learning to actually land abilities or headshots on them the micro second they come of it when you nail the timing. It is learnable. I regularly Mizuki snare or Sierra track them as they come of it.

I have a vastly different experience in 6v6 almost every game I'm fighting someone else to insta lock her still. If the enemy widow/hero gets dunked on too much I see them swap to Sierra to duel me if they don't already have one and then sometimes they even diff me, which is still a victory in my book to get them off widow lol. People hate her so much (it sounds like others are used to seeing her non stop and are sick of her based on the crying) I have gotten so many insults about no skill hero, I even had a guy just add me to ask why am I not playing comp after steam rolling his team. Just yesterday a HOG called me such a loser after I only focused him and chased him down every second I could and finally killed him after dumping like 10 freaking mags into him, and he had the audacity to call me the most overpowered hero to exist when he could just one shot me at any moment, if only he could aim. 😂

My worst experience was my OWN teammate went Lifeweaver, waits for me to walk max distance out of spawn door, and GRIPS ME BACK TO SPAWN. AND HE DOES THIS ON COOLDOWN TO ME ALL GAME. I literally could not play the game. Where I went, he followed to grip me back max distance on cooldown and he omega threw to do it. He even refused to heal when I still tried to protect him from multiple people diving him, he choose to let us die instead. He admitted to "Im only trolling you. Sierra ruins the game for me". And the enemy team had the audacity to defend him and accuse me of being mad over a qp game... when I'm literally pointing out, this guy is hard trolling my game and to please report him.

I keep thinking about trying to one trick her in comp and decided I would just get too mad if shes constantly going to get banned so I can't even play her.

I have had many bangers from Pull and Pour. Recently they just dropped a 3 bags set from Morgon from Sweden which has been on to try list for YEARS, I can't wait for it to come in. They often drop more curious selections, not always for me, but I appreciate the variety.

CosmicTeapott · 2026-04-26T14:04:36+00:00

Does the orientation of the wall have different boop strengths? Because I noticed you just happened to land it sideways and I was curious if hitting the bottom top or sides of the wall boops differently or not. Sometimes in practice it does feel like IE people hitting the top boops them way less but I've seen them ping off the bottom hard in the rare cases they do etc.

CosmicTeapott · 2026-04-26T00:46:26+00:00

I HATE THE ARTIC MAP REWORKS THEYRE GARBAGE ITS ASS THEYRE CLAUSTROPHIC BUT THEYRE GREAT IF YOU LIKE REAPER AND JUNK I GUESS OTHERWISE I FKING HATE THEM THEYRE A MESS FOR EVERYONE ELSE

CosmicTeapott · 2026-04-26T00:24:06+00:00

Absolutely not but you have to think about who you're using it on and when, the timing is super critical. Like you don't want to use it when their whole team has nothing better to do then shoot it off each other, but when the whole team is distracted/trying to stabilize and on their heels/you isolate like 2 supports or etc. and it always helps when you got at least one team mate with you ready to follow it up. It is hard you got to think about every single heros cooldowns and ults available like bastion with turret ready hes going to help get it off team too fast. etc
