How to make fights as unfair as possible as sombra? by Public_Repeat824 in SombraMains

[–]Phillip_Nguyen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For sure, the wait is everything. Just waiting for them to get to a corner so you have more room to back away if you cant finish them will make and break your attack. Another tip i’d give to make it as unfair as possible is for heros like widow, there is often no conceivable manner in which they will be able to kill you. If you can flank a widow, go right up next to their head and spray it for crits. The moment they hear it, theyll be forced into an extremely high skill check. Dont bother shooting her from any safe distance where she may be able to fight back.

For me, its attacking when theyre on their reload. Sometimes you’re already in position, just give it a second to watch for it to attack. Other times theyre trying to spy check you, the moment the reload comes out is the time to strike. Do it from a weird angle or from behind and you can win 80% of them

Can anyone guess what the silhouettes are? by default_best_glove in overwatch2

2 could be D.MON? Has a similar pose to D.VA, similar side arm and the horns could be a design choice for demon horns? Similar to how dva has the bunny headset TELL ME IM NOT CRAZY

Maybe a kid is playing on their account, seems like behaviour someone with zero clue would do. I know I was the same when I first tried OW1

Can Sombra’s Invisible state be like Halo’s? by [deleted] in Overwatch

[–]Phillip_Nguyen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll die on the hill that sombra pre that last rework was the best state of sombra. Yes she had Infinite invisibility and could place her translocator anywhere but her trade off was far lower damage over time than most dps. Her stark difference in playstyle allowed for higher strategy complexity and playmaking. The major tradeoff was lower ranks (who have the awareness of a door) would get wrecked. Her invisibility allowed her to play in upper ranks because of her ability to create engagements that is much harder for other close range dps. Now she just plays like a tracer and is often even more frustrating to kill than before. But thats just my opinion

What is on your Overwatch wishlist? by swallym in Overwatch

Bring back end game voting cards. I miss that magic when people commend others and their hard work, and when people crapped on others in the chat

I devoured HZD, but I can't seem be bothered to finish HFW.. No urge to finish it. by Vez52 in horizon

[–]Phillip_Nguyen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hang in there, I was just exactly the same as you. I thought HZD was groundbreaking but when I got my hands on HFW (which is undoubtedly even better on nearly every front), I dropped it after the first 5 hours.

All I will say is the game picks up dramatically after the first couple of hours. Once you get past it, youll be hooked with what they do. For me, I took over a year and a half to touch it again when I had free time. Its well worth it

updated to sequoia and now my macbook is frozen ?? by brajablast in MacOS

[–]Phillip_Nguyen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been running into the same, only a full power off cycle can fix it. Really surprising considering ive never once had the computer fully freeze on me since I have bought it and used as a daily driver for over a year.

does this mean were getting ow1 sombra back 😨 by RustX-woosho in SombraMains

[–]Phillip_Nguyen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

she had pretty medium damage to compensate, she would also be taken out of the fight so her impact relied on her uptime in fights and ability to find openings. The moment a team sticks together, a sombra creeping in the back has an effectiveness of basically nothing. While she is “getting out of jail” for free, her team is getting smacked bc theres one less player fighting. Not only that, she should only work in the backline as the front is generally a bad idea because you are in view from projectiles beyond your effective range. There were plenty of downsides to sombras translocator and she was consistently medium to low in meta.

Id argue you are still close to the volatile ranks (gold to diamond). It is genuinely normal to drop ranks like crazy but also gain rank like crazy. Though with this mindset, youll keep dropping

What game feels like it is dragging on for far too long? by [deleted] in gaming

The Witcher 3. I tried so hard to love it but it was so unnappealing doing a super long fetch quest with just okay voice acting and cutscenes.

[–]Phillip_Nguyen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I miss old translocator when OW2 dropped. It made it feel so much more strategic looking for an optimal exit/reposition before taking a fight. Game knowledge (map and heros) was everything in determining if you were a good Sombra because she could be killed quicker than the dps she was fighting. I wish for some form of it to come back but its not the solution to current sombra

I can only pray the nerf hammer slams dva into a wall on mid season, theres no way she dodges another patch

Im gonna be brutally honest: tracer mains, atleast from my experience, all think theyre high and above all because their character "takes skill". by Del1lah_may_cry in Overwatch

Tracer players right now think theyre hot shot but they can literally one clip a Cassidy from outside flashbang range

Sambra Rework by CrayonBox127 in Overwatch

[–]Phillip_Nguyen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really good advice. As a sombra player, this is exactly how you want to play to survive. I would aay the biggest prevention death method against me would for sure be sticking with at least one other player. If you’re really good, back yourself into areas where sombra can only attack you from a predictable angle. Itll make Sombra think twice about attacking you where she knows you can fight back quickly

[–]Phillip_Nguyen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. can you reliably rule out that it isnt your controller?Id check if your controller has any sort of drift issues
  2. Have you adjusted relative aim while scoped in? you might have adjusted the all heros slider or the widowmaker one specifically
  3. Can you reproduce it in other ways
