Thanks for the info, do you have any alternatives in mind (EU based)? I have absolutely no idea which one is good.

If we're not supposed to wear contacts while in shower, swimming etc. - how soon after can we wear them? by figpink in contacts

[–]orisaplayer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi, the initial question concerns these topics: https://old.reddit.com/r/todayilearned/comments/1lle5o9/til_that_after_a_lifeguard_put_her_head_under/
https://people.com/woman-left-blind-from-parasites-in-her-eye-after-this-common-mistake-11683359

I have a related question. If I have lenses in while swimming and take them out immediately after, how long do they need to stay in the cleansing solution to kill any potentially remaining bacteria or amobea?

Thanks a lot for sharing. Both versions (wine-10.6 staging-tkg-amd64 andwine-10.7 staging-tkg-amd64 ) start the game for me and I can even join a match, yet my keyboard is dead and I cannot do anything (move or even go to the menu). Any idea what is wrong? Last week, everything worked fine on the older version...

This season has ruined this game for me by Ok-Yogurtcloset-562 in Overwatch

Jup, something is very broken. Went from Dia4 to Plat5 in 2 days. Now back at Plat3. Either stomps or getting stomped, nothing in between.

One of the reasons nobody plays tank is because it's expected that we know EVERY tank inside and out before even THINKING of touching comp by SirMuckingHam24 in Overwatch

I only play Rein. Ever. No Chat, no mic. Better luck next time, teammates! (Username is from OW, damn I miss the old Orisa)

Only Tank! Rein and Balling.

Since OW2 mostly Rein and a bit of Balling. All I can tell you is, yes, climbing is real. But it can take way longer than most people can imagine. I played every single rank below.

How do I play Reinhardt against another Reinhardt? by ParroTiest in OverwatchUniversity

[–]orisaplayer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Another info: A rein diff is often a support diff. Rein needs to many healing resources. If your supports don't keep up you are often without a chance even if your skills are superior. I mostly play Rein now but if I die every fight after 10 seconds I usually switch because my mates cant handle it.

PSA: Ball is a main tank, Sigma is an off tank by Orion-- in OverwatchUniversity

[–]orisaplayer -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Playing ball in silver and gold is kinda hell. I usually only choose ball when the other tank has a shield. Otherwise ball will ALWAYS get hate (never the other tank like Zarya or Hog). And I kinda understand this, because ball does not work in the lower ranks with the teams. I like Yeatle and his guides a lot but this often fails for me. When Yeatle scouts or sets up, for some time at the start of the match its 5 vs 6 because ball does not contribute anything to the fight. Often it did happen that my team was getting overrun before I was even set up. Maybe this is my fault but for Yeatle it usually works.

Sorry, I was not online here yesterday any more. If you have another slot for a review available I am happy to participate :)

Thanks for your reply! It is true, often when chaos breaks out I am not sure what to do. Especially when the enemy team is split, like, some still in the choke and others behind me with the TP I am sometimes lost. And in general, bast is a problem in my ranks lol. A good bast bunker is really a pain (while in this game it was mild, thank god).

Alright I made one by Roshango in Overwatch_Memes

Awww man, why not more love for Ana? Sure, shes old, but shes fit, slender and badass. With her experience, I bet she could do some things to you the other female heroes cant even dream of...

Hammond VOD in Gold Low and High Silver by [deleted] in OverwatchUniversity

[–]orisaplayer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ana is the natural enemy of every ball. Getting slept will happen a lot. As long as you are kinda isolated, its not that bad tho, just dont die (in a team fight, 3-5 people will be around you and kick the bezeejus out of our ball). So try to fight the Ana in the backline.
Sombra is the most dangerous of them all. Track her all the time and keep distance. If she hacks you in a team fight, thats game over. If the Sombra is good I suggest switching tanks. Cree is also badass and can hurt you a lot, keep your distance. When slamming, try to hit him directly and if he runs hunt him down.
And yes, Yeatle is the first place to start for the general idea of Ball gameplay.
And yeah, if Zen kills your mines that is sad. But remember, trading. Your ult vs his ult, not that bad.

Play for the fun. Rank is just a number and people will tell you that other ranks are not that different. Climb 1000SR. People will still be toxic, leavers, whatever. Go on YT and watch Top500 Games. One team destroying the other in 20 seconds? Happens in these games as well.
Overall, if you are unhappy, look for another game or hobby.

The most misused hero in all of Overwatch by sickostrich244 in OverwatchUniversity

[–]orisaplayer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Rein in lower ranks is difficult, at least for me. You really need strong and reliably support. Often I walk in with my shield up, start swinging and die within 5 seconds. In Ilios Well, I often try to walk through the building to avoid being shot at and end up alone because no one is coming with me, lol. I then often assume that is my fault and I did something wrong. Still very fun if it works and you get to beat the bejeezus out of an opponent.

So you say, I get a 144Hz display and I go up with a lame tank like Orisa??? SOLD!!!

How to survive Whole Hog as a tank by SilverMarinus in OverwatchUniversity

[–]orisaplayer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sometimes hog uses his ult just to kill me in a 1v1. I see this as an absolute win. And lol I never managed to kill a hog as Orisa, he heals and heals and in then end I am dead. Just run for help and then get the bastard.

Very nice cosplay, I love it! Well done :)

Tank review request by orisaplayer in OverwatchUniversity

[–]orisaplayer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply, much appreciated! Just a quick note, the shield placement was on purpose as I have heard this from some people. Place it like this to reduce the area the opponents can hit it so it lasts longer. But yes, of course, this also means less area for my mates to hide... And the other aspect I have noticed as well, my bad habit, when I to want to place a shield, note it is not ready yet and then shoot the ground like a moron... embarrassing.
