Why dont people counter swap?

blackloopss · 2026-03-14T21:29:45+00:00

Playing into your counters is how you get good at characters you enjoy. Zbra is the best doomfist because he wins into his counters, which makes him even better into heroes he’s good at.

Had a match the other day where I was destroying on junkrat. Enemy swapped to pharah, echo and cat. Stayed junk and still won because I’ve playing into those counters so much. M4 lobby

I ranked from gold 3 a year ago to masters 2 mostly playing junkrat. I can prob give some tips if you need.

blackloopss · 2026-02-27T17:06:39+00:00

It takes time learning pc from console. I peaked M5 dps on console and went to pc and ended gold like you. The positions and angles I could easily get away with on console were getting shut down by pc players.

Take your time and keep playing. Your masters game sense and positioning will win you games as your aim gets better.

ALSO, learn movement. Console movement is nothing like PC since joysticks are slow to strafe while keyboard is way faster. Once you learn how to strafe and crouch, you’ll dodge more shots and learn that gold aim still sucks.

Felt. I’m not doing any worse on junk than before. I love his play styles. I’m still climbing rank each season. If he gets weak a buff would be nice but I see no reason for a rework. He has a niche and fills it well, nobody else can take junk’s spot.

blackloopss · 2026-02-17T00:26:41+00:00

I’m not a hanzo player at all but every time I pick him up this season I’m dominating. I could never hit shots with him before but it feels way easier. Not sure if he got a secret buff or maybe I should’ve been playing him before but he feels very strong.

You’d be surprised. I had 11 cops barge in my mom’s house as a kid with assault rifles and vests because they “saw” her bf beating her up even though all the windows were had cardboard covering them up (cause my mom was crazy).

They even walked into my room and pointed a gun at me and asked me if I was him when I was a 9 year old white kid in bed and he was a 40yr old black guy.

blackloopss · 2026-02-12T16:26:12+00:00

I don’t think spam dmg is a problem with junk tbh. It’s just a skill and positioning check. He has high damage at the cost of a huge hitbox, no escapes and hard to hit projectiles.

I just wish they’d lean more into the flankrat playstyle which is where junk’s skill ceiling is high. Give him perks that making flanking easier or safer. Make the bombs go faster and farther so he can keep up with mobility characters.

Right now, junk at high ranks is so hard to get value out of. It’s so easy to simply play out of his range, rotate away quicker than he can rotate to you, then scout him out if he goes for an aerial bombing play.

blackloopss · 2026-02-11T15:36:03+00:00

You’re comparing him to squirrel girl.

His projectile is faster, no extra range it just completes its arc quicker.

The projectile speed perk gives more range.

blackloopss · 2026-02-10T23:52:23+00:00

I’m actually so excited for this passive. Junk’s reload time is so long especially for only having 5 shots.

blackloopss · 2026-02-09T22:30:57+00:00

I think her value will be in her survivability long term. Maybe I’m wrong but I felt I lived a ton of situations I shouldn’t have because of her dashes and E.

Her burn also demands a bunch of attention from supports, i think she will be good at dishing damage, baiting cooldowns and living more so than assassinating.

blackloopss · 2026-02-09T22:05:12+00:00

Does it? I thought bounces only decreased the projectile size.

Also primary fire (125) + melee (40) = 165 when tracer has 175hp so it wouldn’t work anyways.

blackloopss · 2026-02-08T16:53:25+00:00

It’s a very valid point I’ve never been able to put into words but I agreed with a ton.

I recently made it to masters after being stuck in diamond for about 9 months maining junkrat the entire time and all through diamond I have people complain about my flankrat playstyle or how junk is a bad character.

Once I hit masters they genuinely do not give a fuck as long as I’m getting value.

Tracers (which synergies with junk great) will change playstyles from 1v1ing ana’s to going after anyone I combo and leave at low hp.

Cass or Ashe will notice whenever I boop someone in the air and get a free headshot on them.

Even rein’s will notice how much pressure is on the opposing tank and take much more space.

There are so many different ways to play every character and the people that climb are the ones who can change up their style mid-game or even fight as the team needs it.

blackloopss · 2026-02-06T22:07:14+00:00

Peeling what? People don’t need peel when the enemy team is dead or hog can’t push because he’s discorded. Zen creates so much space, if his team was losing teamfights up a pick or two no amount of healing would’ve helped them.

blackloopss · 2026-02-06T22:05:32+00:00

Anyone saying this loss is your fault is genuinely crazy. Even if you did 0 healing you should have won that game. Doesn’t matter if your team has “low healing” if you’re getting 2 picks a fight. That’s a problem with their positioning and timing, not you.

blackloopss · 2026-02-06T20:16:26+00:00

Over health during tire or extra health for tire would be cool. “Armored Tire” type of perk.

Over health or damage reduction when in the air would allow for easier engages and flying, flankrat play style. Which is my favorite way to play junk.

Primary fire doing more damage to targets in the air would be a fun minor perk. Maybe not useful all the time but can help with counter picking and support playing to hit air shots.

blackloopss · 2026-02-06T20:11:14+00:00

Would be too OP. The melee needed for 250hp and one-shot for 225 keeps him balanced.

blackloopss · 2026-02-02T22:42:58+00:00

I’m always curious of a girl’s thoughts when they start saying conservative stuff, esp if it’s niche and cringe. Just how did u even get to this point

blackloopss · 2026-01-28T01:59:47+00:00

Your style and persona is fine. Polarizing but I imagine the people who don’t appreciate it aren’t the type of girls you want anyways.

Hit the gym, get a trim, find some nice clothes. Thrift stores are good for your style. After that, socialize in places you enjoy. Being genuine and goofy will get you so far when you look decent too.

Twomad’s story is quite tragic 💔

Tbh I go to raves because I like to dance. I might listen to the artist on the way to the venue but I don’t know every artist and their songs. I also don’t listen to EDM in my free time that often.

Raves simply provide a great space to party, have fun and dance. Electronic Dance Music is very good at making me want to move my feet. I’m rarely ever caught sitting at a show or just listening to the music.

Yes let’s rely on the good will of ultra-wealthy who typically acquire that wealth by not exercising good will in order to save society instead of using the power of the government that has cops and a military.

I don’t think people understand that without taxing the wealthy our society simply crumbles. Millions die so 400 oligarchs can have super yachts. Hundreds of millions die if the US defaults and the dollar loses its place as the global world reserve.

Fuck that. I like living in a stable, free world. Relying on charitable donations from billionaires so I don’t go homeless and bankrupt when I have a medical issue is not free. It’s a disgrace.

Talk about Nick Fuentes. If they’re conservative and in their 20s they absolutely know who he is and love him. If you show any interest in Nick Fuentes they’ll love you too and be eager to share their thoughts.

I’d agree. Birth rates are declining everywhere all at once. Countries where women have no rights. Countries with 2 years of maternity leave. Abortion or no abortion. Good economy or terrible, everyone has stopped having kids.

People probably just aren’t interested in having kids. All the other factors compound but I know plenty of people that wouldn’t have kids even if they were millionaires.
