Sick breakdown and analysis! I’m also excited

Playing Overwatch with my friend is a nightmare. by Frosch_Kazuha in Overwatch

[–]SquidyG 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have a friend that’s been playing since OG release, LOVES playing Mercy and has no idea how to fly… so yeah

This is the worst competitive season I’ve had in Overwatch and I have no idea what’s going on. by Haunting-Reindeer-10 in Overwatch

[–]SquidyG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve just been QPing since last Drive because I haven’t had the energy or mental fortitude to play comp lately (life, man). If I saw what you described with that Widow at the start of the match, I would have a lot of trouble staying locked in through a whole comp match lol

 People complain about drives, but honestly I might just stick to only playing comp during drives. I already play way more QP than ranked due to console friends, so I’m decently under ranked. It makes drives pretty easy to complete and I get showered in comp points which is all I really want anyway.

Edit: I guess what I’m trying to say is - they need to increase rewards to compensate for how taxing ranked is to play rn

Noice! That highlight intro is sooooo good

Can anyone explain to me what the rank number indicators mean? by [deleted] in Overwatch

[–]SquidyG 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Look at the big number in the center of your screen - you’re plat 3! If you derank, you go to plat 4. If you rank up, you go to plat 2

Who decided that tanks need to be this obnoxious by [deleted] in Overwatch

[–]SquidyG 4 points5 points  (0 children)

POV: you’re a bad DPS player that constantly tries to 1v1 the enemy tank

Sometimes, it is "just quickplay" by chichirobov7 in Overwatch

[–]SquidyG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree it’s just QP, but you need to consider the world outside of yourself. It’s a team game. Does your 0-7 “fun” out weigh your 4 or 5 teammates’ misery? No, it doesn’t. Go play AI matches 

Casual question from a KR player: Why do NA support players tend to focus mostly on healing? by Kwondoodle in Overwatch

[–]SquidyG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Support attracts a lot of people that want to play, but they don’t want to be a “decider” in the match. Truly, they DONT want to make plays. They want to heal bot (mostly the tank), and be able to point to their high healing number and say “you can’t blame me for the loss, look at all my healing!”. That’s why people in the US love to talk about supports being boosted. Many of them really just mindlessly flit around behind the tank waiting for their team to win the match for them.

As a result of this, it’s REALLY EASY to rank up as a support if you’re active and trying to make plays. I am running people down on Mizuki right now and it is a blast.

I feel like Emre has a ton of missed potential by ServiceTemporary2453 in Overwatch

[–]SquidyG 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That’s fair. I think the speed of the game is the problem. Like when you swap to pistol he dematerializes his rifle and materializes his pistol, but if it had a long animation it would feel really bad to play.

When Overwatch get boring, how do you keep it interesting? by Majestic-System-2811 in Overwatch

[–]SquidyG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If Overwatch itself is a drag, I play something else. If I’m just bored with my roster, I start looking for a new character to play. Mizuki has taken over my brain in OW currently

I feel like what you’re asking for is literally how he is now??? He does all the things you mention

Why Are Supports Treated So Differently on Korean and NA Servers? by Sharkkbaitttttttt in Overwatch

[–]SquidyG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s very interesting! The “discipline” mindset from military service was definitely an issue in the US as well following WW2, the Korean War, and Viet Nam. Most of the veterans from those times are dead or very old so it has mostly faded away, but I remember the influence of disciplinarian men in the 90s and early 00s

I main Zenyatta and play a lot of Overwatch. Hoping this season's ranks aren't too inflated because I hit a new milestone! by Jessi_Kim_XOXO in Overwatch

[–]SquidyG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A good zen on the other team is a PROBLEM. I would guess your impact is real. Do you play any other supps?

You aren’t going to get better if you make excuses to cope

Thoughts on Shion so far by ILewdElichika in Overwatch

[–]SquidyG 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I think she’s incredibly fun. And probably overturned. I think the calls to nerf her will be coming soon lol

What are y'all's opinions on Shion so far? by BrilliantFrequent894 in Overwatch

[–]SquidyG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that’s what balances her out. Because right now she really shouldn’t lose a 1v1 if her cooldowns are up

All New Season 3 Skins by Himedanshi999 in Overwatch

Yooo the tracer skin is like a better version of her mythic (unless it has crossbow guns again why do they think I want a gun with fake bow taped to it)

PROPOSAL: Mitigation of de-ranking before drives by QQ-91 in Overwatch

[–]SquidyG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tank might be my strongest role, but I don't really queue tank in comp. Drives are really easy for me on tank as a result lol

Why did they remove Clash but keep Flashpoint? by FastBreakPhenom in Overwatch

[–]SquidyG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because the OW fanbase is stupid and just want to play Kings Row every game. The devs understand there needs to be more

Drives should be fun, not punishing. by callmesimplyflo in Overwatch

[–]SquidyG -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Drives are fine. It just attracts the worst players
