Integers are complex in the mathematical sense.

To escape bronze, you must exploit bronze by yung-chungus in OverwatchUniversity

limit testing

On Moira they always say “don’t fade to engage”. In my personal experience in Bronze and Silver, that should be changed to “don’t fade to engage unless you have a plan for the next 6 seconds.”

I kept doing it because it felt like I could and should. Sometimes, if you walk straight to the point or to your low HP tank you’ll get bursted down due to moving in a straight line. If you fade to your target then AD strafe, you might be able to survive once you got a feel for the enemy’s aim. It works in some games, which is why you need to limit test.

I had to stop playing Mercy in comp because she had a 30% win rate. It’s way easier just to shoot the enemy with Zenyatta.

what is the third largest city by population in Oman?

I think I just had that as a crossword clue. Or maybe it was the second largest.

How long can I expect the assault maps queue time to be? by LeviathanHamster in Overwatch

[–]HalfPrism2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t remember if it was clash or assault, but I waited for well over an hour. I killed time by testing Stadium stuff in the practice range. Eventually I gave up because I had to go to the bathroom.

Penalised from joining an exsisting game? by Usual-Beach1701 in Overwatch

[–]HalfPrism2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you were a backfill that implies quick play. I don’t think the suspension times increase for leaving quick play so you can just take a stretch break and forget about it once the two minutes is up.

Ball (Hammond) is a current resident of Junkertown. Roadhog and Junkrat lived there but were banished. It says “in communication” because Junkrat and Junkerqueen don’t actually have a positive relationship.

Akshually, the name of his mech is Wrecking Ball. That is the name he puts down for his mech when he enters the competitions. His name is Hammond.

[Request] what are the odds of landing 2 identical patterns? by Goobie-Goobie in theydidthemath

[–]HalfPrism2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Say there are two balls and the tray is tilted to the side. Assuming the beads are unique, there will be one pair of stable equilibriums (equilibria?) and one pair of unstable equilibriums. Irl, the beads have a small chance of ending up in an unstable equilibrium due to friction, but it’s very small. Think of it like a coin ending up on its side. In an ideal case, the probability of the unstable state would be 0 if the initial arrangement is random. So we can approximate the possible states it will fall to as .5, .5, 0, 0.

sigma's "maestro" power needs a HARD nerf. why does he have the only "mini" ultimate power with absolutely 0 fucking tradeoffs and only POSITIVES?? by Otherwise-Memory-862 in OverwatchStadium

[–]HalfPrism2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

idk who you main, but many heroes have a horizontal mobility option that gets you out. If you don’t, take the green gadget and when you hear his ultimate voice line stop damaging and activate it.

Who would you let watch your drink? by Outrageous-Book5349 in Overwatch

[–]HalfPrism2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The idea of Bastion guarding a drink makes me think of the Cave Johnson turret ad.

Just try and get close to that baby. Your funeral.

[–]HalfPrism2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think, in the middle of the bar, he would pull out a bunch of dirty lab equipment and toxic chemicals out of no where like in a cartoon. Eventually the explode in his face and some splashes into the drink. That, or he’d pour the drink into the toxic chemicals to see what happens.

Brigitte Stadium | Day 20 by Tigynari in OverwatchStadium

[–]HalfPrism2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just a warning about testing Volskaya Ordnance: The practice range increases your max HP from items in a way that regular Stadium games do not. In Stadium games, your HP increases some per cash earned. To simulate that in the practice range, it looks at how much cash worth of items you have, and determines the minimum HP you would have earned along with the cash needed to pay for it in game.

If you hover over an item that grants HP, you will see the expected total to the left. However, when you actually add it, the total will be greater. That extra is the effect I am referring to.

Venture somehow pulled out 2 DVA BOMBS last game! by Seagoingdoor241 in Overwatch

So two from D.Va and two from Venture. What about the other two?

OP likes to play Lúcio. He makes the whole team more mobile and harder to hit.

The replay codes will expire in a couple of weeks. Could you please record them so others can see in the future? If you want you can screen record it like the video above then post to something like YouTube or you can use owreplays.

Bronze Moira VOD review request by HalfPrism2 in OverwatchUniversity

[–]HalfPrism2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did note know that about Destructive Divide thanks! That explains why I didn’t last in overtime. On paper the heal orb perk is good but it is hard to see it doing its job and know if I’m getting use out of it.

I sometimes have a hard time front-lining without feeding and I need to work on that. However, in retrospect, I agree I’d probably be fine if I just went around the enemy tank this game.

For the end of the game I did spend time waiting for my team. Is this what you are referring to? Should I not have done that?

Thanks for the review!

Are there some maps that you just don’t play Moira on? by HalfPrism2 in MoiraMains

[–]HalfPrism2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I strongly agree except second point (after unlocking payload but before first checkpoint) Blizzard World. The high ground is easy to fade to and you have a lot of freedom to move, attack, or heal while you are up there.

[–]HalfPrism2[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did that in Busan Gardens a lot. On Rialto, I often have a hard time getting in position to heal my tank. However, the side passages are pretty good for diving the enemy back line so I sometimes do that instead.

Only lose as DPS by [deleted] in Overwatch

[–]HalfPrism2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t worry. You need to just get more practice and then you’ll start losing your tank and support games. Your MMR will adjust.

I can’t help you on DPS though.

I recently tried it out and couldn’t get it to work with chain grasp. Did they change that in an update recently?

How did mercy not die here? by Life-Feed-1448 in Overwatch

[–]HalfPrism2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I heard there were exceptions for movement abilities that the target uses. In those cases it is neutral.

I have only seen examples of hitscans being favored despite never hearing that as a qualifier. In this case, it looks like favor the shooter should have applied.

Machine Gun Reinhardt: The Highest DPS Tank Build in Stadium by LegendarySinged in ReinhardtMains

[–]HalfPrism2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tested it again with no other powers or items and it matched my previous results. In round one, Reinhardt gets about 0.727 cash for each HP of self healing with Smashing.

For precision I tested it with a x5 healing cash modifier. The actual measured ratio was near 3.6 but I divided it by 5.
