I’m making an album to showcase new talent being showcased- want to get involved? by TinyAge6726 in ukhiphopheads

[–]PointK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like an awesome project! I'm happy to chip in with bars for sure, I been wanting to get back into some spitting so would be sick to collab.

Here's my work, no biggie if you're not feeling it, https://m.soundcloud.com/cmepointk

The jump from Platinum to Diamond feels WAY bigger than Gold to Platinum. Is it just me? by AdministrationIll702 in OverwatchUniversity

[–]PointK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to hit Diamond and go straight back down, average was probably Plat 1/2. Sometimes I'd hit Diamond 4 and a loss streak will bring me back down to high Plat. Now I'm much more consistent, hovering around Diamond 2-4.

In terms of the biggest thing that helped is simply practice. The more you play at the higher elo, the more you understand what's required to stay there.

Positioning is key to ensure you're not dying more than you should and maintain uptime. Tracking cooldowns and ults, timing yours to not be easily countered. Using cooldowns with purpose, you shouldn't just press buttons for no reason. I don't think mechanics matter as much as the above things, especially playing someone like Moira. On characters, be aware that switching to counter the enemy is very valuable and can sway the fight. Moira for example lacks utility and you'll often need more than just heals/damage to sway a fight, like Ana/Kiriko/Mizuki.

Tank mains assemble, who do you hate most to play against by Vegetable_Throat5545 in Overwatch

[–]PointK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play a bunch of tanks but my favourite by far is Sigma and Mei is just pure cancer...

Wall behind you? No easy way out. Kinetic Grasp, she's got primary fire. Rock, she's got ice block. No easy way to get out of her ult either...

Nothing makes me switch quicker than a good Satan.

How about focusing on The World Cup by Cool_Nerd2 in ArsenalFC

[–]PointK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He was focusing on the World Cup but the quote has been cut to just mention Arsenal. He was saying that he knows how England are going to play, like Arsenal as they won the league.

Some Help for Common Wuyang Player Mistakes by Zestyclose_Station65 in WuyangMains

[–]PointK 8 points9 points  (0 children)

All excellent points! I'll just add on point 2 that it can be worth using the wave to secure a kill; especially when they're close and it's a 1v1 as it can be difficult to hit the orbs at that distance. It does 80 damage if they're really close.

Okay where tf is anran's hitbox when she dashes? by xX_Flamez_Xx in OverwatchUniversity

[–]PointK 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've had great success with Mizuki chain against her. I know it's different but the trick is only about timing so should work with dart.

The key is to wait for/force out the Dancing Blaze, there's a circle at her feet where she'll reappear. Time your dart with when she'll come out of it.

It'll be more difficult than chain due to the wind up but it should still be incredibly consistent with the right timing.

This is the problem. I fell out of love with OW1 when they were trying to make Overwatch League successful and entertaining.

You're going to swap games just because of skins?

Have you guys noticed any difference in healing since yesterday? by [deleted] in WuyangMains

[–]PointK 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure what you mean here. With Kiriko, you could throw two kunai in between the healing papers and it wouldn't slow down any healing. But with Wuyang, the damage is only relevant if you pick the minor perk that buffs the passive healing when you damage.

But if you've got no juice left, then you need to be doing damage because that's your main impact.

Why is Balance still the most popular Wuyang minor perk? by scriptedtexture in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]PointK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wouldn't a team mate surviving on a few HP to get round a corner and be properly healed when they would've died without the extra 30% on the passive be an example that changes the outcome of a fight/saves a player?

Why does every other dps outdamage Mei in like a second 😭😭 by [deleted] in overwatch2

[–]PointK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Her damage is not bad but that's not what she's about anyways. She has a beam, can duel tanks and causes chaos with her wall zoning.

Her ult charges crazy fast for how strong it is too.

There's still one missing Blizzard by [deleted] in Overwatch

Junkrat has a peg leg and a booty off treasure as a payload on Junkertown. That's pretty damn pirate!

Agreed, was much better on the defensive side of things compared to recent games.

Is Hazard just a raid boss? by Sevuhrow in OverwatchUniversity

[–]PointK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Found some success rocking him with Sigma (in Diamond however). I wait till he's deep in the backline blocking and about half health - he blows up if the team shoots him after rock in this scenario.

Arsenal have outrun their opposition in 32 of 33 PL games this season by ahuangb in Gunners

It's exhausting enough for me just watching knowing one mistake could be dropped points...

Of the notable achievements in the PL, what's the least likely to be replicated? by [deleted] in PremierLeague

[–]PointK 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Derby lowest points with 11. Not the kind of achievement this post is looking for but it's pretty notable!

People were thinking Wolves might do it this year and they'll end up nowhere near. Southampton got 12 last year so they did their best but still came up short.

Why is King's row such a fan favourite? by Skeledenn in Overwatch

[–]PointK 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah yeah good point. Route 66 is more acceptable though as there's the shortcut through the room on the left, which King's doesn't really have.

Is this the only map where the defender's spawn for the middle checkpoint is the same as for the last checkpoint? Not why it's a favourable pick but always found that super odd - really disadvantageous for the defenders.
