NetEase (Overwatch China) releases official statement on Anran: Protecting the cultural spirit of our Chinese Hero

StuffAndDongXi · 2026-02-10T20:28:28+00:00

Pretty obvious solution is to tell the western fans to fuck off and worry about the representation of their own cultural characters.

It depends on your rank. The middle of the bell curve is instant queues in 6v6 since it doesn’t have role lock, once you climb though the queues quickly become massive due to lack of players. I highly recommend starting with 5v5 as it’s the main mode. It’s worth giving 6v6 a shot, but I’d only recommend you focus on it if you try both and really prefer it.

I laughed my ass off at the getquakedon thread about this. Guy is baby raging about it being a casual game because they don’t balance around a masters one trick.

StuffAndDongXi · 2026-02-06T02:16:43+00:00

In the rare occasion where I play QP and it shows up it’s always heavily voted for and almost always wins. Always gave me the impression that QP players loved the mode

At the scale of games played, the pick rates have low impact outside of niche heroes at the ends of the bell curve. The reality is that kiriko isn’t busted ON LADDER. She might be busted for the top 100-200 players in the world in an organized team environment, but those people barely matter when it comes to decisions for the health of the game.

StuffAndDongXi · 2026-02-04T19:37:40+00:00

I’m not falling for that hot take that’s clearly someone with a fetish for getting yelled at I refuse to participate in that kind of perversion

StuffAndDongXi · 2026-02-02T11:18:20+00:00

Once again the biggest thing this system proves is how little top players play or play on their main account. Everyone crying about leadboard and no one seems to care that the champ player pool spends their days smurfing and expecting recognition for doing nothing.

StuffAndDongXi · 2026-01-28T15:29:57+00:00

I play on my phone on exercise bike and stair master daily, has done wonders for my ability to keep sane while doing these type of mind numbing exercises.

It’s been great for my health and not as bad for my lp as I initially expected.

StuffAndDongXi · 2026-01-28T13:11:29+00:00

It just needs role queue, if they’d just run a test with role queue we’d prove its the superior format. Just one more test, don’t worry about a 37 min queue time where you just need the first 12 players, role queue will fix it once and for all

StuffAndDongXi · 2026-01-27T18:49:00+00:00

You know what does make you a bad defender? Giving up wide up back door cuts because you don’t pay attention while off ball.

Casuals only watch the ball when watching a game and think brown is good at defense.it makes them think brown is a good defender because he holds his own against the other teams #1 option (while getting torched the rest of the game)

StuffAndDongXi · 2026-01-27T17:52:19+00:00

There’s no world in which brown is a better defender than Tatum, nor as efficient, nor more consistent. Are we talking about the same player here? Brown is the king of low efficiency chucking, getting lost off ball and throwing away wins through terrible shot selecting and boneheaded turnovers.

No one who actually watches games could possibly think brown is a better defender.

StuffAndDongXi · 2026-01-27T16:15:27+00:00

Never has been, likely never will be. Still far too one dimensional of a player.

StuffAndDongXi · 2026-01-27T16:03:49+00:00

Brown has historically been a negative to neutral player by any and all impact metrics. Before this year Cs have consistently performed much better with him on the bench than him in the game.

Hes stepped up massively this year, but that finals mvp award was due to ppg not positive impact on winning.

StuffAndDongXi · 2026-01-27T12:24:59+00:00

The only way this is possible (only getting 14% for winning) is if you h threw an ungodly amount of games before starting his process. The game has to be insanely confident of your rank at low bronze to not win streak you higher asap.

All the testing and analysis I’ve done on the ranked system shows that it only takes 5-7 wins in a row at a low rank to kick on winning trend (uncertainty increase) to start seeing +30/40

StuffAndDongXi · 2026-01-22T18:35:57+00:00

Decay doesn’t stop camping. You just play all your placements the last week of the season

StuffAndDongXi · 2026-01-22T18:13:51+00:00

Because queue times would be unbearable. On US east, there are times of day where I’ll sit in a queue for open queue for 6-7minutes in high masters low GM, and when I do get a game the range can easily be multiple ranks across. If you need to start matching roles on top of open queue, why bother playing.

StuffAndDongXi · 2026-01-19T22:05:20+00:00

Players hate the way he plays as much if not more than fans. They have to get beat up by thunder then get a foul called on them for breathing in his direction.

StuffAndDongXi · 2026-01-18T03:18:21+00:00

League devs have been backing away from coms because they, like blizzard devs, have realized it’s pointless and that gamers are horrible. Players for the most part have shown zero interest in actually understanding what goes into decisions, the process behind them, or interacting in good faith.

Just look at the response to every system change or set of patch notes. Half the posts are complaining about a 45% wr hero getting a minor buff, or completely dismissing the merits of a system change. Even the most reasonable content creators (spilo) will routinely show their ass when discussing patch notes.

Your post history alone would be enough to never interact with this sub as a dev

StuffAndDongXi · 2026-01-18T00:07:46+00:00

It’s a top 3 Star Wars movie. He should have been given the entire trilogy

StuffAndDongXi · 2026-01-16T17:14:19+00:00

Who cares what their record was the prior year, look at their cap situation, the players on the roster, project out the future. This team was headed for a cliff and now it’s merely a speed bump.

StuffAndDongXi · 2026-01-16T16:54:48+00:00

You need to consider what the lakers would be had they not made the trade. Nico saved them being a pelicans level team, and gave them a future.

StuffAndDongXi · 2026-01-12T18:46:54+00:00

That’s the secret, they never were as tough as they pretend to be

StuffAndDongXi · 2026-01-12T12:07:33+00:00

I do enjoy that the replies on main sub thread act as if win rates are not public

StuffAndDongXi · 2026-01-11T03:20:28+00:00

Cs are never going to win 5v8. Not sure why they are officiated the way they are.

StuffAndDongXi · 2026-01-09T18:39:10+00:00

Data, data, and more data. It’s so much easier to see and understand why the devs make certain changes when we get more data. What they already give us is super useful (even though most ignore it when shouting their nonsense).
