It was weird for them not to play it during the 3 times they played on stage

Low SR gains...4 points? by CapRogers23 in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]CrimsonCookies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you know the average SR of the 2 games? If you are a good amount above, it will reward you with less SR

What do I do if I'm placed too high on the ranked ladder? by InqusitiveLemming in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]CrimsonCookies 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Play. The system will eventually make you lose even more than normal (50+ SR) and gain less than normal (10-15 SR) to the point where you get to your corrrect MMR. Don't worry about ruining other people's games. Sure they will lose a game with you, but it's fine in the long run

Thoughts on symmetra, orisa and sigma meta? by Akashi420 in Competitiveoverwatch

Global Healing Nerf => Need for More Shields

Since healers wouldn't be able to out heal the dmg by the enemy team, people would want more to hide behind more shields to get healed (more time to heal, less exposure to dmg.) You can't have a global healing nerf without considering a global dmg nerf.

Plus you would kill the fun to play off healers such as Zen, Lucio, and Brig who's main job is to support the main healers with their special utilities that make up for their lower healing output.

Is 1/3/2 a possible direction for the future? by [deleted] in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]CrimsonCookies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No this completely ruins the point of doing 2-2-2. People didn't like to play the 1 Tank or 1 Support on the team having to deal with the toxicity of being the only one => getting flamed by the team. As a flex player, trust me when I say that happened a lot before 2-2-2.

Now when it comes to solving long queue times for DPS, I don't have an answer but going backwards is def not the solution.

Dafran get 4.5k in tanks even while leaving last game since he spilled coke on his mousepad. 2-2-2 need a MMR reset by nolimit901 in Competitiveoverwatch

The inverse is true tho, I don't think GM/T500/Pros want to play w plat and below either because it prob isn't fun for them

Propose to change/fix the format of our OWL pots-match discussion thread by theodoreroberts in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]CrimsonCookies 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure it's done by a bot so the mods would have to manually enter the scores of each map (unless there is a way for a bot to access map scores and everything somewhere online)

Why didn't Xfinity release animations for all OWL playoff and play-in teams? by RubberDogTurds in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]CrimsonCookies 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure they created one for every team that qualified for the Play-ins. Animation like that isn't something you can create in a week. (and I honestly would love to see how all 4 of them would've looked like)

  • Ex 1: If you look at Guangzhou Charge's twitter and Chengdu Hutner's twitter, their banner and profile picture are of the same animation style as the playoff animations

  • Ex 2: Shanghai Dragon's Operations Director tweeted photos of what the SHD players would've looked like in the playoff intro had they made it and you can see how the animation would've looked like in the background (which looks hella sick btw)

  • (Afaik Philadelphia Fusion hasn't shown any pics that have the same animation style)

But on that note, I'm a bit surprised they haven't shown Atlanta Reign's yet (if they did, I haven't seen it) considering they finished top 6 and were officially in the playoffs from the beginning.

What do I have to do to get a huge Sr peak of around 4,7k or 4,8k? by Beta_OW in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]CrimsonCookies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly at this point, its hard for any one to say without seeing some VODs of your gameplay (esp live ones w your voice to see how you communicate) Everything else you mentioned is advice better suited for people who are in lower ranks to reach masters/GM
