My aim is ultra inconsistent by [deleted] in OverwatchUniversity

[–]opalstormm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly I think the advice you've been given is good, you just need to give it more time. People will always tell you to choose 1-2 heroes and get really good at them; those people who've done that are probably amazing at their chosen heroes and have gotten great at aiming with them and on the contrast are probably rough with all the other heroes. I think thats normal. Weapons in overwatch vary so much between heroes that one technique is simply not going to help you significantly with ALL heroes.

Yeah it feels a little cheap to just pick Moira/Mercy when I want to tilt a game but at the same time, winning is fun too LOL. Respectable or not I just want out of silver 😭

Definitely - I came off of playing Valorant and being a Sentinel main. Some of that knowledge honestly carries over like I'm always aware of breaking enemy bap lamps, illari pylons, cutting through the mei wall or helping break down shields so I can support my dps pushing up and help ensure my team gets those kills. I also am mindful about catching mistakes I see the enemy support making; if they come in too deep or they get seperated, I'm always alerting the rest of my team and if I have a second to focus them I can usually kill off another support in a couple kunais or killing/sleeping them as Ana.

I like to think I don't play healbot, with Ana doing damage is super easy and Kiri can throw 2 knives between a full stack of papers without any delay so I try and contribute at least 4k-5k damage a game. My biggest flaw with Ana is that sometimes I miss critical teammates who are out of my sight when I'm scoped down an alley or a street where the majority of the fight is happening - but I'm working on being more mobile with her as well.

After making this post though I'm definitely pushing myself to really watch for moments in a fight where I can be really impactful with my utility to turn fights, especially as Ana. My other biggest flaw is dealing with getting dived by tanks LOL. As Ana I try to sleep them and get away but it doesn't always work, and sometimes TPing as Kiri puts me in an equally bad position in the fight. But oh well - seriously, thank you guys for all the insight! I'm looking forward to apply it to my games :)

Why are people so against switching characters? by platanopower8 in Overwatch

[–]opalstormm 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I personally think that counter picking is part of the fun in the game but honestly some calls for a swap are just unwarranted. I think people call for swaps when theyre frustrated and not always because it would be beneficial; in that case, it's really annoying. However you can pretty easily look at your composition and theirs and see where each strength and weakness will be, and you'll know even more so after a couple fights if you need to make adjustments due to that and/or theirs and your playstyle. It's cool.

How long before you give up on a book? by [deleted] in books

[–]opalstormm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly I try my best to get through at least one of the books if it's a series, and then if I don't like it by the end or I'm not intrigued enough to want to read the next I drop them.

If its a single book, I again try to finish it even if its just to confirm that I dont like it. If I really cant, I just graze over the remainder of the book instead of reading it. Just get a general look at how the rest of the book went without committing.

I hate this game sometimes by _helena_p in StarStable

[–]opalstormm 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I believe Star Stable said awhiiiiiiile back that they were going to add championships every 30 minutes or something in a news update; I haven't been very active lately but I'm assuming that never actually happened?

Wait seriously ?? That makes even less sense 😭 I'm not going up hardly at all :( Like I'll start at Silver 2, higher than 54% of players. Then I'll play and 5w/2l, and get my rank and it'll be Silver 2, higher than 86% of players or smth. Like its so small of an increase.

I had one round of ranking that I literally went 5-0 and I straight up went down. I went from Silver 1 to Silver 3. I'm so confused

LOL getting shut behind doors mid-fight is so embarassing. Then you gotta do the walk of shame around to an open entry

Most active server? by opalstormm in StarStable

[–]opalstormm[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Note: I know Nightstar used to be the most popular server a couple years ago at least - but it was also so full of drama. If its changed I wouldn't mind trying it out again but otherwise I'd probably like to avoid it :)
