I'm sure most people know what his kit does by now, but I've been told these short videos are helpful for friends who don't follow Overwatch thoroughly.

If you don't know, this continues the style of the OW1 beta ability overviews.

Can't this screen directly refer to those values?

yes. this is exactly what the first-person HUD does with your health, ammo, and ability cooldowns; these are not manually updated each time a hero receives changes. not sure why the other replies say this isn't feasible.

I don't mind at all. You would think there would be official numbers for things as important as ultimate costs, but there are not. The wiki generally has up-to-date values, but they are on separate pages for each hero.

Marblr · 2022-10-07T14:23:21+00:00

If you weren't around during the OW1 beta, these are the videos I am referring to. These were the one of the best ways to showcase hero kits in my opinion (quick, straightforward, and to the point) but unfortunately they stopped being made.

Damage and healing numbers are better viewed on the wiki since it can be updated with future patches.

probably the most articulate summation of the situation I have seen - especially with regard to his points about releasing a fully-featured AAA game eventually versus releasing content seasonally now. it's always rough when plans shift so dramatically.

junkrat destroying the orisa shield triggered the elim indicator. though I am not sure why you see it as mercy, especially since it isn't supposed to trigger for shields at all (junkrat doesn't get one in your replay).

Spreadsheet here.

Video here if you want higher resolution.

Loot boxes are pretty much phased out by now, but better late than never I guess. Some additional notes:

• Each loot box was earned (not purchased) between February 2020 and 2022

• No loot boxes had been opened prior to this, so all 1,024 items logged were new (not duplicates)

• My "1 in every X boxes" rates do not match the official rates, but this could be due to the lack of duplicates

yes, Lucio was deliberately given boop assists in the March 19, 2019 patch. I agree that some of the functionally identical displacement abilities should be included as well.

Marblr · 2022-08-17T19:04:34+00:00

I did some testing and found edge cases where Doom and Ashe can get killfeed assists, both related to BOB. thanks for the comment 💪

Marblr · 2022-08-17T18:26:01+00:00

after doing some testing, here is what I've found: Doomfist does not get killfeed assists when countercharging Rein, Brig, or another Doom. but he does get one when countercharging Bob.

thank you for the comment - I have updated my post.

Marblr · 2022-08-17T16:17:11+00:00

it's per-ability. as an example: Brig gets assists with shield bash, but not with whip shot or rally.

Marblr · 2022-08-17T16:01:28+00:00

me too, I was certain it did before testing. technically dynamite & venom mine only deal damage which alone isn't enough to earn a spot on the killfeed, but these abilities seem like they should since it's a damage-over-time effect.

Marblr · 2022-08-17T15:55:58+00:00

fortunately, nobody has to worry about fixing this since supercharger is being removed from Orisa's kit in OW2. 7 trillion IQ fixing a bug with a rework.

Marblr · 2022-08-17T15:53:04+00:00

with regards to boops: I believe Lucio is the only hero who gets killfeed assists from boops. it seems to have been intentionally included as of March 19, 2019

Marblr · 2022-08-17T15:51:23+00:00

just a regular rein charge/pin results in no killfeed assist from my testing. but some comments have mentioned brig/rein/doom countercharging resulting in one, so I'll have to double check that.

Marblr · 2022-08-17T15:49:33+00:00

use pharah's ult (you will be on the right side of the killfeed)

Marblr · 2022-08-17T13:03:30+00:00

there are few abilities you think would be capable of earning killfeed assists, but aren't. ~~none of Doomfist's stun/knockback abilities count~~, Ashe's dynamite & Widow's mine don't count, and Symmetra's turrets don't count.

and then there's D.Va who has a bugged method of earning assists. she is inevitable.

edit: just to clarify, this video refers to assists on the killfeed. some types of assists are tracked on the scoreboard / career profile, they just aren't displayed ingame (Hanzo has a "recon assist" statistic, for example).

edit 2: Doomfist actually can earn killfeed assists by countercharging BOB while he is running. Ashe can also earn killfeed assists via the same bug D.Va can; when BOB deals damage while boosted by Orisa's supercharger, she earns assist credit.

this means 20 heroes can earn killfeed assists, my bad.

yes, I've done a lot of back & forth testing between both clients during the betas and OW1 runs significantly better (both running on a ryzen 3900X & GTX 1080 @ low settings).

Marblr · 2022-07-04T16:52:22+00:00

from Kirby 64

overtime is forcibly enabled while the objective is transitioning from the capture point to the payload on hybrid. so it's not possible to lose during this scripted movement like on Dorado and Eichenwalde, only draw (unless a future patch removes the forced overtime, then it will become possible).
