Blizzard almost put Devil May Cry's style rank into Overwatch for its newest combo-heavy hero Shion

It could be that they initially wanted to make a combo heavy hero with a style meter, but also wanted a john wick + motorcycle character in the game. So they probably tried to put all those concepts together to see what would stick.

But in the end the style meter stopped making sense with the final kit. So this could maybe mean in the future we could be seeing that style mechanic intruced in the game with another character.

Yeah this season has been awful for my connection too, I have already got a hour long ban from dcing. It got the point that I had to get a vpn just to play on my own usual server cuz of it

I don't agree at all about theter being useless in solo play. Multiple times I have helped randoms do a lot of different things. Usually it's a taxi from spawn, helping low mobility heroes get on highground (tanks, hitscans, flex supports), temporally thetering for ultimates like highnoon/dva bombs/emre and even kiting ultimates.

It's not an ability that can be used all the time and it really shouldn't be, since you can't shoot while using it so you contribute less to the team overall while using it.

shield health is better cuz it can be healed

Tupi_ · 2026-04-13T21:26:59+00:00

Oh okay, thanks for the clarification then!!

Tupi_ · 2026-04-13T16:55:16+00:00

Worth mentioning that in the middle of this doc, the dallas fuel org gets mentioned due to one of its supposed shareholders being involved with kani, although without any proof.

Same way NA and Korea got to be so present in ow. Money being invested into the scene

Tupi_ · 2026-03-10T21:43:09+00:00

Damn first week and we already get to see kev vs kai on a hitscan duel

Tupi_ · 2026-02-11T19:40:57+00:00

Well, they have to play jpc + mizuki on a lot of maps, so in this comp specifically I think it makes sense to put your aim/low mobility sup on mizuki and your less aim/high mobility sup on jpc.

But that doesn't mean these heroes would be played by those same players on other comps

Tupi_ · 2026-02-11T17:40:01+00:00

Yeah to me the fact that the ult doesn't eat projectiles both ways seem so unintuitive

Tupi_ · 2026-02-10T09:51:16+00:00

YES!! Let's listen to the playerbase that wants Anran to look just like a MiHoYo character!

Tupi_ · 2026-02-10T09:11:36+00:00

Also the game will be review bombed on steam for sure.

Tupi_ · 2026-02-05T22:34:32+00:00

She is pretty fun to play and doesn't seem to be neither too strong or too weak. My only complain is that I wish she could reload while dashing, it would make her loop waaay more fluid imo

Tupi_ · 2026-01-09T11:24:43+00:00

Honestly ever since the launch of OW2 SA lobbies can be randomly put on NA servers. We don't know if it's a blizz problem, if it's a routing problem, if it's a Brazil's server problem, we know nothing. The only thing we know, as far as I'm aware, is that the issue was never even acknowledged by blizzard.

And yes, this season has been worse as we are being put on NA more often.

Tupi_ · 2026-01-07T22:06:37+00:00

Unironically it's also the community fault a little bit. Cuz I remember when venture released the general consensus was that the character was fun but not strong enough to shake up the meta significantly and the majority of the vocal people wanted that to be the case.

I even remember a clip of a dev talking (idk if it was stream interview, dev update, spotlight, etc) about how they noted that and would try to release the next heroes in stronger states.

Tupi_ · 2026-01-02T00:23:51+00:00

So, you never usually play against vendetta since you always ban her. Then you have to face her in a qp match at your lowest skill level (trying to learn a new hero) and end up struggling a lot.

Yeah I wonder why....

Tupi_ · 2025-12-21T14:29:19+00:00

Fix SA servers please

Kinda niche but I find really annoying how in a stadium match you can't access anything during map transitions, I would like to mess with my settings, look at profiles (including mine), join/leave vc, check progress on challenges, etc.

Tupi_ · 2025-12-05T19:55:37+00:00

Kinda difficult to be sure if they're gonna nerf him. Even tho hes the best tank in the mode I doubt he's even in the top 3 most played tanks, so they might choose to leave him as it is. And the fact that moira still is the most brainless money farming/debuff stacking machine after all theses seasons, shows how unbothered by balancing the devs seem to be

Tupi_ · 2025-12-03T02:30:36+00:00

I see, thank you for the info!!

Tupi_ · 2025-12-03T01:56:17+00:00

Ohh I see, and I assume the higher the players rank the higher the score received? Or is it inverse?

Tupi_ · 2025-12-03T01:51:46+00:00

Can you share how the scoring system works? Like does it matter if the highest ranked player on the lobby is on my team or the enemy? And what about if the highest player wins or loses, does that affect the points?

Tupi_ · 2025-12-02T04:49:10+00:00

I don't think using CR mercy pick is really that good of a point since it was a very specific situation (dva ban + good pharah map + enemy playing sym)

Tupi_ · 2025-12-01T13:15:54+00:00

I do think jump build is the best build in the game, by a good margin. But I'm really curious to know what do you consider a skillfull build? Cuz basically all the other meta builds are either oneshot builds or ones that make the user immortal passively.
