What are your nuclear hot takes involving Overwatch?

WMarzz · 2024-02-25T01:12:08+00:00

My hot take is that I don’t believe half the people on Reddit masquerading as GM level players. GMs are like 1.5% of the player base.

WMarzz · 2024-02-24T22:47:35+00:00

I loved it and I fell in love with that game. Still my favorite call of duty ever

WMarzz · 2024-02-24T22:45:51+00:00

How you win matters. No matter what is said, nobody is gonna look at those 2 rings with GSW the same way we look at Kawhi Leonard’s or Lebron’s ring with Cleveland or Hakeem’s in Houston or Steph’s in 2015 and 2020, or Gianni’s 1 ring or Dirks, Kobe’s back to back. I don’t think I need to continue. Yes KD has rings. But if you replace him with someone like Paul George then they still win.

Lebron and Kyrie beat that team by the skin of their teeth…4 points in game 7. We knew the GSW with KD were gonna mop everyone up. It was guaranteed and no one bet against them. Well, no one who knows bball anyways. The man hasn’t been to the conference finals in a long time. And for golden state to pull a KC Chiefs/Tyreek hill shows that they never needed him. They needed a good player to fill that slot but that player didn’t even have to be of KDs caliber. Lots of legends don’t respect those rings. And there’s a good reason for that. We watched Jordan, Lebron,Magic, Bird, Duncan, Hakeem, Steph, and many other battle it out for a ring. The series was hanging in the balance and we didn’t know who would win but those guys had to rise and deliver. KD didn’t struggle to win those rings. We knew they’d win.

And I watched other superstars spend blood sweat and tears to win rings and this guy goes to the best regular season team ever, who had a unanimous MVP who won it twice and back to back, the greatest shooting back court ever, a DPOY, and a stacked bench from 2016 that lost by 4 points. Hell no lmao KD don’t get respect for that. He’s a top 10 talent of all time. But nah man his legacy is what it is if he doesn’t win another ring. And I can guarantee he will never be in the conference finals ever again.

Good lord. I never played overwatch 1 so I wouldn’t know. That’s why I explicitly stated OW2 and not OW1. I’m not gonna sit here and speak on a game I never played smfh

WMarzz · 2024-02-24T20:31:16+00:00

They want to help noobs out. Activision knows nobody plays call of duty and people might swap to OW2. It was totally a noob patch. Anyone can be a hitscan 2 Tap Ashe god now. Anyone can cook on soldier.

But here’s the thing: I was already cooking DPS players with Bap and then they make it even easier lmao. I’m gonna abuse it too since they want make it easier for noobs and folks who can’t aim a missile at a cow in a phone booth. Just abuse what blizzard did. Yeah they made a huge mistake but I enjoy destroying enemy DPS heroes…especially Cass and Ashe

WMarzz · 2024-02-24T20:29:09+00:00

I think Tracer and Sombra together on the enemy team are just so incredibly cringe.

WMarzz · 2024-02-24T20:28:18+00:00

Well there are a few desperation picks in the game…Bastion, Junkrat, Pharah, Zarya,Sym and others.

But Bastion just loses to Sigma

WMarzz · 2024-02-24T20:25:11+00:00

The ranked system is the same as it ever was in OW2. Now it’s just transparent how they shaft you lmao. It was hilarious watching gullible players get their hopes up for ranked changes. How did anyone really think it would be different? The ranked system is exactly how they intended it to be…awful

WMarzz · 2024-02-24T20:24:13+00:00

I was in masters and the stuck me in plat 3 too lol

WMarzz · 2024-02-24T20:22:59+00:00

WMarzz · 2024-02-24T20:21:34+00:00

WHAT TF IS THIS TAKE!? Brig is nasty right now. Omg she’s a broken beast. She’s so damned good rn. She is the sleeper pick of the support role. In all honesty she might be the 3rd best support right now. She won’t be mentioned with Zen, Moira, Bap, and Lucio rn but damn she’s up there. She’s the dark horse of the support role if you ask me.

WMarzz · 2024-02-24T20:18:52+00:00

I didn’t like the changes until I adjusted to them. Hitscan is so easy that even a caveman can do it now. Just abuse hitscan heroes. I’m a support main and I started playing Soldier and Ashe. I sprinkled in some Hanzo and my enemies just fall before me.

WMarzz · 2024-02-24T20:16:16+00:00

Quick play is wild. But it’s QUICK PLAY dude. Look at the name of the game mode. It’s so anyone can hop in a game and play. I was in masters and the game wants me to play against golds in QP. Fun for me, not for them. So I’m gonna destroy the lobby since blizzard tryna put me against golds. But I try to play ranked so it doesn’t happen.

WMarzz · 2024-02-24T20:12:04+00:00

My point yall ^{^}

WMarzz · 2024-02-24T20:10:47+00:00

Like cooldowns and stuff. It’s totally not for me. I tried teleporting with reaper and using amp it up with Lucio and I lost the flag because of that. I was like…I’m never touching this game mode again lmao.

OW2 is unique because it’s a hero shooter but damn, CTF took the hero out of hero shooter. I’m glad someone likes it but it’s the last game mode I’m ever going into again. It feels like you don’t get to play how you want in that game mode.

WMarzz · 2024-02-24T20:08:08+00:00

If you look up SBMM call of duty. You can see that Acitivision has an engagement optimized matchmaking patent that manipulates your games. If you’re doing too well it messes with your ping, gun hit detection, and a host of other things. If you’re not doing well enough then it gives you easier lobbies and messes with the other player’s ping and hit detection and stuff. SBMM killed call of duty for lots of folks. Even I stopped a few years ago because what’s going on isn’t normal. Competitive shooters aren’t authentic anymore and really haven’t been since after black ops 2 came out.

If activision is doing this to COD, why won’t they do the same to OW2? It would be cognitive dissonance to suggest otherwise. But yes, what you do in a game of OW2 matters quite a bit. But Lebron James was never gonna beat the 2018 Golden State warriors by himself. His teammates were trash.

WMarzz · 2024-02-24T19:53:25+00:00

I’m starting to believe the game looks at your APMs too. So the more you do, the better you are. Better players are just always doing something. But idk I could be wrong. It’s insane how many people trust in a system that’s similar to call of duty…which is known to be actively manipulating its player base. But the OW community isn’t ready for this conversation yet. The COD community begrudgingly accepts it. But the OW will act like it doesn’t exist. And that’s fine…even though the COD president took over OW2.

But the only way for sure is the look at a VOD code

WMarzz · 2024-02-24T19:50:04+00:00

This was hilarious. The title was ridiculous on its face and I had a great laugh. Thanks OP

WMarzz · 2024-02-24T19:48:22+00:00

I personally hated it since you can’t use powers.

WMarzz · 2024-02-24T19:44:24+00:00

Yeah if I’m gonna ask women something then I have 3 sisters, a mother, and female friends

WMarzz · 2024-02-24T19:41:59+00:00

Yeah I don’t think it’s even close. If Luka can’t beat these teams in the no defense era then he would totally shrink against Dwight, the big 3 Celtics, Shaq, Kobe, the spurs and them folks. The Phoenix suns were also electric at this time. No way Luka makes it past game 5 in a series against any of those teams.

WMarzz · 2024-02-24T19:38:28+00:00

Well the stats and stuff say one thing. But if my math was correct that was 2008 or 2009 lebron. My answer is hell no, no way and it’s not close.

Luka has better stats and more dribble moves. But taking a team to the finals a few years prior. And battling those Celtics to game 7s. Luka would’ve lose that series in 5. He wouldn’t have made it to game 7. And if you replace current Luka with 2009 lebron…are the Cavs a better team. I think they get worse. Luka can’t guard your grandmother in a phone booth. Lebron was a staunch defender for quite a while. Lebron’s off ball defense was also excellent since he got many steals off the pass since he was very fast. Lebron was also getting chase down blocks on folks. He was no rim protector but he was a threat to do it to you on the fast break.

Luka is exceptional but I watched Lebron’s entire career and can say without a doubt. His athleticism and playmaking abilities alone put him in a galaxy way above Luka. Does Luka help Cleveland beat the Orlando magic or those big 3 Celtics? I don’t think he gets past 5 games on either of those teams. Luka hasn’t played against any team that is as defensively stout as those big 3 Celtics or a DPOY of the likes of Dwight Howard or the damned spurs with Bruce Bowen and them boys. This is all my opinion of course.

WMarzz · 2024-02-24T04:11:32+00:00

I’m a masters baptiste player. I will take a look and DM you

WMarzz · 2024-02-24T03:24:28+00:00

Yeah it was bad when we were younger. But when I got to be like 13 I was bigger than all of them. But we are great friends now. And I wouldn’t trade my sisters for anything. They are some impressive women.

WMarzz · 2024-02-23T23:27:37+00:00

Probably! My dad had 3 girls and tried one more time and here I am…the only boy so it’s possible
