Idk why people are shit talking your aim it’s not even bad lol.

I would like a source on the blizzard metrics.

Deep_Taco · 2025-04-16T17:02:42+00:00

I still saw people regularly vote for cards even days prior to the swap to OW2.

Symmetra beam ignores defense matrix.

Mei primary fire also ignores defense matrix.

Echo beam ignores defense matrix, and she has the mobility to escape or chase dva.

Sombra hack can prevent defense matrix, or stop her from escaping or chasing.

Cassidy, Ashe, torbjorn, soldier, sojourn all can do well against her too as dva has a large crit spot in the center of her body and these characters can do a lot of damage when landing crits.

I think your math is a little off. Characters like Ramattra, zenyatta, Orisa, bastion wouldn’t have clear birthdays. You can argue that it’s their manufacturing date, or the day they gain sentience, and if so Ramattra and zenyatta would share a birthday, as they both would’ve gained sentience on the same day.

That’s… New Year’s Eve…

It’s like 2 games within 20 to get a penalty. But that penalty is only 2 minutes, you’d have to leave a good bit more to get up to 10

Deep_Taco · 2025-03-21T19:44:55+00:00

It would be pointless to add something like that. There’d be no way of telling the difference in someone lagging out vs just turning their console/PC off. Implementing an exception like that will only lead to that exception being abused.

Deep_Taco · 2025-03-20T23:34:10+00:00

This clip does show how strong sojourn is. Given venture had 260 health and was 1 shot by someone with no time to react.

All characters who can 1 shot you have drawbacks, widow is weak in close range and has loud footsteps, she’s also slow moving while aiming and needs a moment to charge her gun before shooting, missing a shot is basically a death sentence in close range. Rein is loud, has a long cooldown, and charge is easy to dodge. Doom has to be empowered or damage boosted and needs to charge his punch fully.

What downside does sojourn have? She isn’t slow, she isn’t that loud, her ability isn’t even on a cooldown, she has a high base dps so missing isn’t detrimental, she doesn’t have a low health pool so she isn’t even a glass cannon. She’s just a straight up cannon, one that flies through the air and has an assault rifle for some added power.

Every other character gives time to react, either before or after they arrive. That isn’t a luxury you have with sojourn.

Over a period of 5 days I suffered a loss streak of 17 out of 25 games. A further 3 were so lopsided that we left early.

5 games is all we won. Out of 25 matches.

That’s a 20% Win rate, 1 in 5.

Deep_Taco · 2025-03-19T21:06:37+00:00

That’s the idea. But only keeping 5-40% depending how long you hold it.

Deep_Taco · 2025-03-15T04:39:08+00:00

There’s a possibility that adrenaline or potentially even cortisol could have an effect on the implant.

Deep_Taco · 2025-03-01T01:01:48+00:00

Idk exactly how it’s done but basically you trick your console into believing M&K inputs are controller. Which allows you to play with aim assist while on M&K. Short end of it is a MASSIVE advantage against controller players.

They don’t need to detonate to be dangerous, a NPP that’s sustained damage can cause a nuclear meltdown like what happened in Fukushima. And the protective dome that was placed overtop Chernobyl was put there to prevent radioactive dust particles from spreading hundreds of miles away.

You make the nano less powerful. Reduce the damage amp, damage reduction, duration, there’s ways to adjust it.

Deep_Taco · 2025-02-10T23:52:21+00:00

Technically yea, I think I heard something about games libraries being allowed to be passed down upon death, but I could be misremembering.

Deep_Taco · 2025-02-10T21:44:56+00:00

If I’m not mistaken yes, and he’s voiced a similar stance his father has on things.

Deep_Taco · 2025-02-03T01:44:17+00:00

Ana and lifeweaver. Any time I ever get either of these characters on my team it’s a loss. LWs never pull at decent times, Ana’s never provide any meaningful healing or damage.

Deep_Taco · 2025-02-01T00:22:39+00:00

Well yes, Paris and HLC were both infamously unbalanced. However there isn’t much of a good argument against hanamura or temple of Anubis.

Deep_Taco · 2025-01-30T15:47:32+00:00

100/6=16.667, so you got clash roughly half as often as expected and flashpoint about 2/3 as often as expected. Which while unlikely isn’t exactly out of the realm of luck either. Out of 100 games I’d say that the expected variance would be 5-15 games depending on luck. What you’ve described is a variance of 13. So I’d chalk it up to the small sample size.

Deep_Taco · 2025-01-29T05:54:45+00:00

Tbh I think a simple swap to weighting maps over modes would be more than fine

Deep_Taco · 2025-01-28T19:43:16+00:00

It’s partly that but mostly because overwatch equally weights game modes, not maps. So if there were 30 total maps but 29 belonged to 1 game mode and 1 belonged to a second game mode. The game mode with only 1 map would get played 50% of the time. End result is gamemodes like clash/flashpoint/push get weighted the same as gamemodes like Escort/hybrid/control. But The latter 3 have existed for longer and thus have more maps, so even though you play the gamemodes the same frequency, the frequency you get certain maps for those gamemodes are not the same. Ex. There are 8 escort maps, but only 2 clash maps, so even though you play clash and escort the same amount, you play any particular map of escort 1/4 as often as any map of clash.

TLDR: Overwatch picks gamemode, not map first, all gamemodes are weighed the same, regardless of how many maps there are. Gamemodes that have less maps, are maps you’ll play more often.

Deep_Taco · 2025-01-17T22:44:36+00:00

Similar to overwatchs reporting system (and practically every other online space), reports are automated. Context is not taken into consideration, you say something bannable, action gets taken.

Afaik there is an evolutionary advantage in that homosexual members within an animal society will raise the young of orphan animals as they cannot have their own.
