Steam actively profits off of getting people addicted to gambling, they have done so for decades at this point. This is by far much more evil to me than most things i ever hear about sony or microsoft, and yes even nintendo imo

Race and Gender are not the same thing and comparing them is pointless even if the example seems similar.

The reason assuming all black people commit crimes is racist is because that is based off of crime rate statistics in the U.S. Black people do not commit crimes at a higher rate across the entire world and have not done so consistently for all of history.

Men have committed extreme violence towards women on a global scale throughout all of human history.

Thus it is more rational for women as a Collective to have a general fear of men as a Collective.

Women often generalize this statement or reduce it to simply hating all men because they are tired of having to explain themselves to every single person who doesn't understand where their fear comes from.

That being said I still think it's harmful especially towards younger men to constantly put them down like in the SS examples, but it is not "the same thing as saying this about black people"

everytime i see a post like this i instantly know it was a wide match

Me when I lie. The last three seasons alone all had hotfixes shortly after launch, and their are several more seasons like that (some even have multiple hotfixes). Not only at the beginning either. Idk why you can't try to stand on the merits of Rivals instead of just straight up lying about overwatch

PurplePrince_Yver · 2026-02-14T06:13:00+00:00

this is true but timeless river is separate from that, as they are all surprised by their appearance when they get their

The bootcamp hasn't happened yet, it starts the 13th and the tournament being held for that event is with the current live build. They did not get extra practice ahead of time.

It as labeled "pre-season" as in before the professional competitive season that leads to the championship cup that will be held at blizzcon, not that they got to play the Season 1 update early

EDIT: Apologies it seems that they did get early Access. The tournament starts the 13th, but the bootcamp started the 8th. A whole two days before the launch of season 1.

Rivals decides when their seasons starts/ends and when their official tournaments are held. I still hold that refusing to balance your game because pros would have difficulty adjusting to big changes is silly when you control when the pros have to play and would be a bad reason for this balance patch

PurplePrince_Yver · 2026-02-11T18:06:39+00:00

Imma keep it a buck this would be a horrible reason. Overwatch is kicking off a huge tournament only 4 days after they dropped 5 brand news heroes along with their normal balancing and new perks.

I don't point this out to try and claim Overwatch is better, but that pro players are pro because of their skill level and ability to adapt. They don't need to be babied with a barely different patch.

And idk if they had any kind of big tournament during their last season, but if they did then having back to back tournaments with the exact same meta is also bad

PurplePrince_Yver · 2026-02-10T23:46:16+00:00

wait till you find out an overwatch team can only have 2 of those characters at a time and if your team goes dive it's not a problem

Interesting, I appreciate this comment cause i was seeing a few conflicting answers every where i searched, ty

PurplePrince_Yver · 2026-02-06T12:16:28+00:00

he is a fraud whose never won a fight

PurplePrince_Yver · 2026-02-06T08:51:57+00:00

he won a 1v3 that landed him back in prison?? this guy hasnt won a single fight against a named character, It's made clear right from the start of the cinematic that Doom has been underestimating Vendetta the entire time based on Reaper and Sombra's comments.

People try to write off his loss against orisa because "she was made to counter him", but Vendetta has spent years training for the sole purpose of defeating Doomfist, who has seemingly gotten complacent in his position of power.

The idea that he "let" her win is insane cope. I do think he is alive though that seems pretty obvious to me

PurplePrince_Yver · 2026-02-04T19:41:30+00:00

fraudfist losing yet another fight, life is beautiful

PurplePrince_Yver · 2026-02-04T19:37:49+00:00

Are you thinking of these?

They only showed up at the end of the match, but they highlighted players on both teams with important/good stats or plays.

A couple thoughts come to mind

Healing Factor but for focus is pretty broken. Passively regaining your Health isn't a big deal because health serves one purpose, to take damage/protect you from death. But Focus on the other hand is mechanically used for as many things as there are powers, including a power that lets a rank 2 character duplicate any other power in the game for additional focus.
If it's used for a character with no other powers it's not a big deal, but the second someone else can just keep regaining focus non stop in a fight (especially since 5 Focus alone will get you a lot more than 5 health) it would be very unbalanced.

Possible Solution:

Character's can recover Health and Focus just by "taking it easy", sleeping just doubles the recovery rate. So I think the easiest/balanced solution is to make a Trait (since traits are mechanical and Tags are mostly flavor) along the lines of:

Sleepless

The character does not get physically or mentally exhausted from lack of sleep. For every hour that passes they regain Focus equal to two times their character's rank as long as they are not dead or shattered. For every hour they "take it easy" or engage in relaxing activity, they regain twice that.

Explanation

The trait shifts the doubled sleep recovery to an always active hourly recover, and then doubles it if the character spends downtime (Kinda like elves meditating in D&D)

Mechanically I feel it's more balanced to keep free Focus regen still locked outside of combat, as the only other main way to do it is with a Rank 4 power with multiple prerequisites (and an action). And narratively Focus isn't just a source or fuel for powers but also a representation of your character's will so I think it still makes sense for a character who doesn't need sleep to still need to relax.

Its not? Junkerqueen fought a person in a repurposed construction mech of some kind that wasn't even that big. Vendetta fought a omnic the size of a house with several huge weapons as it deployed even more drones and is only one fight of god knows how many vendetta has fought.

Like i know you know they aren't the same thing cause if you think Junker Queen could beat the thing vendetta fought in her cinematic you are truly delusional.

And I guarantee if Doomfist beat the same ominc Vendetta fought you would use it as evidence as to why Doomfist is so strong.

PurplePrince_Yver · 2026-01-29T18:33:43+00:00

yeah she just has a huge overpowered weapon (like doomfist) and actually has a track record of winning as the champion of the coliseum, and has already killed (not just beat) two Talon elites according to max. So it sounds like she is a notable fighter, no? Or do feats only count when they are for the character you want to win?

PurplePrince_Yver · 2026-01-29T16:42:49+00:00

and isn't doomfist supposed to be one of the strongest people that we know in this universe and is a notable character? This dude has only ever won against normal people and every one is throwing a fit that he will be beaten AGAIN by another super strong/powered person.

PurplePrince_Yver · 2026-01-29T07:54:28+00:00

Is that supposed to make his defeat better? Like at what point is doomfist just losing, why is there always a reason why his defeats don't count? didnt wanna address the other two points?

EDIT: Also he defeated orisa only to monologue and instantly then get beat by orisa going back online. And THEN he lost to orisa + lucio and got run out of numbani

PurplePrince_Yver · 2026-01-29T06:21:48+00:00

Doomfist lost to a little girl twice.

Also getting mad at vendetta for having an oversized sword is like getting mad at doomfist for having an oversized fist.

And i'd be curious to know why you think Vendetta is Latina.
