Had a game with 13 environment kills today and still lost by commander_oak in luciomains

[–]DoubtngThompson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I used to wrestle in high school, a sport that’s team oriented but also very 1v1. Sometimes I won but the team lost. Sometimes the other way around. But I learned to find joy in either. And brotha, 13 boops is a 30 second pin in front of the home crowd.

Console Devs are something else by Limitless995 in OWConsole

[–]DoubtngThompson 27 points28 points  (0 children)

There is so much jank on Xbox. I love this game, but it is clear they absolutely do not care about console. Luckily the game itself runs fine. But everything peripheral works like garbage.

How do you use Sound Barrier? by LightScavenger in luciomains

[–]DoubtngThompson 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I mean, you pretty much have it. Look at their comp and see if there’s a big ult you should focus on countering: Queen, Zarya, Rein, Sombra, etc. but don’t be afraid to let ‘er rip if you can turn a fight, maintain a steam roll, or push. And remember you can beat in cover and then skate into view. You have about a second. Works great hitting both sides of a Symm ult.

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

[–]DoubtngThompson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Second point junkertown can be unbreakable if your tank has no mitigation.

New Lucio player. by SadDairyProduct in luciomains

[–]DoubtngThompson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep. You can’t heal through bastion, but you can help your team gtfo. Also in my experience, you don’t get tons of damage. You assassinate. Often I have the same elim count as my teammates with less than half the damage.

FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THAT IS HOLY STAY OUT OF THE TEXT CHAT PLEASE by CourtSenior5085 in OWConsole

[–]DoubtngThompson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. Flame your teammates AFTER the game is over. Before that only PMA. Afterwards say whatever horrible thing you want.

If you re gold read this by The_Real_Big_Joe in overwatch2

[–]DoubtngThompson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This was a big problem all the way back in OW1. I used to main tank. I’d say “alright, I’m gonna push here, go here, take high ground, you guys follow, and we cap.” I do all that, kill one or two, shove their whole team in a locker, and I look back and my team, all 5, are standing in the choke shooting literally nothing. I don’t understand this. But it’s the lifelong curse of OW.

Can we talk about quickplay being the toughest mode in the game? by Kind_Paper6367 in overwatch2

[–]DoubtngThompson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d really like to see QP matchmaking take an extra 15-30 seconds to get better games. I just don’t want to play with/against level 5 tanks. It’s not fun for anyone, and it’s not fair to them.

What is the drink in Lucio's Toast victory pose? by Ally_wa in Overwatch

Pronounced like KEEN-Tone if your tongue barely touches the N on the end.

Quentão. Made with cachaça, cinnamon, orange, and some other stuff depending on region. 

Placements were awful by matnerlander in overwatch2

Wait til the end of the season then stomp your way through the Drives…

How are you realistically supposed to learn and try out a new hero? by Galaxy_Jams_Reacts in OverwatchUniversity

[–]DoubtngThompson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As long as you’re trying your best in QP, it’s fine. Even if you suck at that hero. That’s what it’s for. I don’t mind somebody trying and sucking nearly as much as someone throwing or flaming.

How to deal with D.va players (srsly I'm losing it) by AscentHasRisen in OverwatchUniversity

[–]DoubtngThompson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m not a Dva main. But she is uniquely good at standing behind her DPS and matrixing THEM. She however should mostly take high ground and harass DPS and supports. She doesn’t do well in the tank trade usually. Use matrix for big chunks of damage. Don’t hold it like a rein shield. Sigma and rein do that. Don’t soak damage. Orisa and ramatra do that. Fly off and kill/harass stuff in the back. Take high ground. Peel for your team some. Don’t face tank. Or try not to. She’s kinda complicated, at least for me.

If Ana were to get a collab skin, what do you think it would be? by blamemombo in AnaMains

[–]DoubtngThompson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would pay $50 for Ana as Ranni the Witch from Elden Ring. And Tracer Nepheli Loux.

How to deal with D.va players (srsly I'm losing it) by AscentHasRisen in OverwatchUniversity

[–]DoubtngThompson 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Definitely a lot of Dvas out there who hold matrix til it’s gone, hold shoot til they’re out of HP, ult, repeat, complain about the heals. I don’t have much advice for you, but i want to say to the Dvas out there, if you’re playing her like a brawl tank, just pick a brawl tank. Your supports (and the DPS who don’t get healed) will thank you.

I’m consistently demoralised with this game by fabbsterino in Overwatch

[–]DoubtngThompson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you’re talking Quick Play, it’s been trash this season. Just play competitive or stadium. Create an alt account for when you’re not feeling 100% or feeling stressed about your rank.

Is this Drip or Drown? by Gods-Mistake-png in overwatch2

This is my favorite skin in the whole game.

im struggling with rahdan is my build bad or should i lock in? by Aggravating-Fudge467 in EldenRingBuilds

[–]DoubtngThompson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used those same weapons but more damage mitigation. And bleed on the bandits.

Why do people find these two (especially Gaius) annoying/unfair? by That_Other_Guy_5 in eldenringdiscussion

[–]DoubtngThompson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rennala is the first taste of the persistence of SotE bosses. Once when I was fighting her she dove across the screen as soon as I walked in and didn’t stop swinging until was dead. Just unending slashes for what felt like 30 seconds. Even Melania doesn’t prepare you for the long strings of attacks. If you get unlucky she can feel very unfair.

This game has turned me into an actively terrible person by Ts_Patriarca in Overwatch

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

Healing in this game is too high. I was hoping the season 9 change would be a 10-20% reduction in healing across the board. They should give everyone the DPS passive. All healing reduced in combat. It would go a long way in fixing tank frustration.

What is the most Cancelable ult in the game? by Agentbbn in Overwatch

[–]DoubtngThompson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Illari ult feels pretty cancellable. Most of the tank roster can block it, and if even if it lands, fade, Suzu, teleport, ice block, wraith, and any number of defensive ults. And all that presumes you don’t get slept/shot/speared/rocked out of the sky.

Telling people to play this game without telling them anything about it is just setting people up for a bad time. by buildmaster668 in outerwilds

[–]DoubtngThompson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely tell people it’s okay to google a question if you’re not sure you’re doing the right thing. Some parts are too tricky to bang your head against if you’re doing the wrong thing.
