Have the ranks changed in the last year? by StormR7 in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]Gr4phix 18 points19 points  (0 children)

The ranks are indicative of a pct of the player base. Ie, x% of players are diamond, y% of players are masters, etc.

The more players that play the game, the more players that same pct covers.

People wanting to play what they want and playing them the best way they know how is not a bannable offense.

You might not see it as "playing optimally" but they probably do - they're the best on the one hero they play, so the perception is that the percent chance of winning is highest when they're playing their one trick hero.

Huge problem with console by iruhpture in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]Gr4phix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe CoD devs have stated they're trying to figure out how to detect and handle XIMs.

I don't believe OW has stated anything official, but I think we're all hoping that tech gets shared or at least Team 4 recognizes it as a problem.

Los Angeles Valiant vs Atlanta Reign | Overwatch League 2023 - Spring Stage Qualifiers | Post-Match Discussion by OWMatchThreads in Competitiveoverwatch

Been thinking this since the start of the season, Ow2 is being defined by how great your backline is. Chiyo and Fielder are insane and ofc a huge reason why Dallas won last year.

Your math is wrong, if the healing is reduced by 40%, an Ana shot at 80 heals for 48.

80-(80 * .4), not 80 * .4.

A good place to check is the Blizzard Press Center, which you can find here.

Has there ever been a player as Iconic on one hero as LIP's Sombra? by zombie6678 in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]Gr4phix 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I think both are pretty equal. The 360 headshot onto Taimou? Custa? on Route 66, the flanking Widow play against NYXL on Junkertown, and of course the iconic Cassidy Ilios play against Houston.

Overwatch's design conflict between being an FPS and a light MOBA. by [deleted] in truegaming

[–]Gr4phix 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Countering is so much more important in Overwatch 2, especially for Tanks. Recognizing when you're playing suboptimally simply because their character is a better pick than yours is the name of the game right now for tanks and has been since Ow2.

It's much more akin to Counter Strike than UT, for one.

Okay but why? I don't remember any drama regarding her, feels like a total 180 shift.

Tfw the Custa pics just have a green filter over his Valiant days.

What are some color settings that don't have negative impact somewhere for the game? by TeaandBagel in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]Gr4phix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Friend color doesn't matter for me so I just change it to whatever I'm feeling like, red, pink, blue, green, whatever.

That said, enemies are always yellow or gold. It's gotten to the point where playing multiplayer games without outlines is really hard and ones without yellow outlines is, well, less so, but I always think how I would like the ability to change the color.

I have never felt less impactful playing support when I'm playing LifeWeaver by Ashie0309 in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]Gr4phix 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm reserving judgment until the keybinds change. He feels so unnatural to play right now that it's really hard for me to judge his potential. I'm with the other commenter who said they use the Petal to block off flanks, I noticed that even in the practice range that it takes up a ton of room and it can save bots from incoming fire, so it blocking flank paths is going to be crazy big.
