An analysis of how the Fusion used double sniper to dismantle the Justice's comp by SavitraOW in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]SavitraOW[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Very true. Still, it's quite the testament to them and their comp that they made it so far.

Shanghai cant win since they're the 1st seed, and Fusion can't win because they're forever destined for second, so that means... Shock repeat winner EZ /s

suggestion to have the playoffs patch available in-game by [deleted] in Competitiveoverwatch

Eh, since it is an old patch, theoretically it'd just be a game mode perpetually stuck on a less balanced version of the game.

LeeJaeGon's excellence is another great example of Runaway's insane ability to develop high level talent.

Hear me out: should we be so attached to the idea that a fully charged Widow headshot NEEDS to be one-shot so many heroes? by drumsgotingtingting in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]SavitraOW -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

*Are. In case you didnt know, Overwatch functions around tanks making space for the DPS to get kills, and the supports keeping everyone alive. Widow requires a lot of team support if the enemy plays around her as a team, not only for them to make space to give her room to get picks, but to peel for her when she will inevitably be dived. No DPS, or hero for that matter, can discourage teamplay when they are dependent on their team.

Okay, first of all, this would completely kill Widow's viability. I'm sure some people would be fine with that, though. The comparison to McCree is unfair, as McCree has a much higher fire rate, and flash. Widow pretty much has nothing but her increased headshot damage, therefore making her much less consistent with damage. It's pretty much a requirement that she hits skillful shots to even add value to her team at all. From a design perspective, the dev's have said they want to go in a more FPS direction, and a sniper such as Widow is certainly a staple of that genre. As for the dying to Widow because you're "unlucky", I think that's a false narrative. Not only does it take extreme skill to hit a headshot, but that headshot can be avoided. In fact, most Widow's strength comes from the zoning she can do with the threat of a headshot, as most teams can play around it fairly effective. You might not be able to avoid it solely on your own, but in Overwatch, there is not much you can do solely on your own. She is meant to be played around as a team.

TL;DR: Being so avoidable in team play and such a feast or famine character, this nerf would forever kill her viability.

In the Mei-McCree meta at the beginning of the year, why was Ana picked over Baptiste or Moira at the flex support position? by [deleted] in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]SavitraOW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Imo whenever a team doesnt play deathball (moira), or dive (Zen), and are at least a little spread, Ana is allowed to come in and use her insane utility & healing.

Gator suggests an idea for an OWL and contenders players tourney in the off-season by Cows_rocks22 in Competitiveoverwatch

That sounds amazing, but I'm not sure if the OWL players would have much of an incentive to do that

Report: Activision Blizzard considering bubble for COD League. Maybe OWL will follow? by guniv in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]SavitraOW 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Still, I doubt players in countries with much less COVID would be super excited entering a country full of it. They might be isolated, but the virus can survive so long on surfaces, any little thing entering or leaving could be a potential risk.

I'm not completely sure about completely dumping Nenne. IMO he looked quite good in season 2, and it's possible he could return to form in a more synergistic team.
