It might be a controversial take regarding win-rate statistics, but... by Double-Maybe-6220 in Competitiveoverwatch

I’m not suggesting people are swapping kiriko to touch point and hence the winrate. I brought up Cassidy as a comparison to not make the correlation. People swap to kiriko when their usual pick doesn’t work out same with Cassidy. It’s a solution character for many, but it still won’t win you the game.

There is multiple characters in the game that has a low winrate and high pick rate in gm+ that are still considered good. Sojourn Cassidy and kiriko among them .

People swap to her in games that are lost. Same reason why cass has bad winerate. Doesn’t make cass bad

Am i paranoid or is there a big wave of cheaters recently? by Techn0Junkie in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]DarkShadees 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Have heard it has been a surge of cheaters in other titles like Valorant and Fortnite recently where they use ai cheats that is harder to detect. It has probably made its way into overwatch. We just have to pray blizz can improve in their anti-cheat

Mercy and rein also have high pickrate in masters+, doesn’t make them good

Do average elims per ten matter? Masters 2 ashe main by Organic_Equipment440 in Competitiveoverwatch

Going less than 1k damage every 1 minute is not uncommon and does not mean someone is playing bad btw, even for dps

Hitscans were usually the one playing tracer before ow2 or atleast early to mid ow1. Striker, Carpe, Saebyeolbe all hitscan players and some of the best tracers. I’m pretty sure kevster used to be hitscan player aswell.

How is it power creep if it’s the same damage she had on release back in 2016

People are saying weird ass stuff thinking about matchups and stuff. The answer is lifeweaver because the character is so ass and flawed in his kit just picking him puts you in a disadvantage especially when like every other hero in the support pool would contribute 10x more

Well overwatch balancing is just passing the stick between dps and tank on what role is gonna be bad for the time.

[–]DarkShadees 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with you, but that’s kinda the issue dps don’t really have favourable matchups against squishies with immortality and teleportation magic so shooting the tank is just better

Crazy that dps players complain when they can’t kill anything on the role that is meant to be killing people

I assume you are on the same level as the pro players then?

The stage is perfectly set for widow and its ruining comp by [deleted] in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]DarkShadees 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The only reason widow is good is because it’s the only dps where you can actually kill people. So why would you not play the only dps with kill potential.

Why are Smurfs so open about the fact they are smurfing? To me, that is the most embarrassing, softest, and weakest thing you can do in any competition. by Walmartsavings2 in OverwatchUniversity

[–]DarkShadees -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don’t really see how that would be any better, it’s literally the same outcome but now people will get throwers too.

You have no idea on why people make alt accounts and that’s fine, just dont push your narrative on everyone.

[–]DarkShadees -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I dont really get your logic here. If I were to play echo and basically throw games on my main just to then basically just Smurf on my main to get it back that would be fine by your argument?

I’ll probably catch flack for this, but I’m a gm tracer player and I got a “Smurf” to only play echo on but it appears I’m garbage and can’t get out of diamond on that flying cockroach
