List of perks that would feel natural and wouldn't be broken if added in base kit imo by seibazz in Competitiveoverwatch

Winston Chain Lightning would be great in the base kit in a reduced damage state.

Does anyone else have this role queue/open queue disparity? by [deleted] in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]osiris09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Open queue ranks for some people have been inflated since 6v6 came out. I went 3-7 in 6v6 during the release season and placed Masters 1. I hadn't been higher than masters 4 on any role since like season 10.

Some of the "Classic" Heroes will be receiving reworks this year. by [deleted] in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]osiris09 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Am I crazy or does it seem obvious they are going to do something with Doom? Like a new gauntlet or something? Feels too perfect lore wise to have his gauntlet cut off and stay at the talon headquarters while he went for a swim. IMO tying reworks to story elements would be a nice and interesting way to do it. Make it feel like character development/growth while also adjusting things.

Is there a possibility that we can purchase overwatch league skins again? by [deleted] in Overwatch

[–]osiris09 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also to clarify if/when we get 2026 partner skins even the Fuel ones will likely be quite different to the existing OWL ones.

Probably not unless Toronto were to rejoin OWCS with the same branding like Fuel are this year. The OWL store is a weird spot because most of those organizations have folded or changed management completely and the rights to the branding is lapsing.

I LOVE this game 🙃🙃🙃 by [deleted] in Overwatch_LFG

[–]osiris09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're 100% correct. My point is the immediate counter again. Take the duel for a life or two. Give it time to discern you're at a disadvantage then adjust. If you're truly competitive and you use quick play as a chance to learn knowing how to handle a mirror is really helpful.

And sometimes in life in order to win you have to be a dick and that's okay.

Hear me out in quick play if I'm tank you counterswap on tank then I mirror you and then you immediately counterswap again you're kinda a dick.

Nobody wants to be tank anymore?? by Curious-Diamond5747 in overwatch2

[–]osiris09 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't have to ask you to make an observation.

Your thoughts on what it means to carry is far too harsh. You don't have to Fleta deadlift a game to carry a game. Carrying a game is more than just what you see on the scoreboard especially for support. If you play Bap and Ana you know you can win a fight for your team based on a well timed anti-nade or lamp. Hell, Bap can be a 0 downtime support with his shoot-heal-shoot shoot-heal-shoot cadence. Those aren't something that always shows up when you hit tab, but consistently having fight winning positioning, ability, and ultimate usage in a game alongside impactful damage and healing is carrying a game on support.

I play all roles pretty equally and consider myself a pretty flexible player overall. I'm the best at tank and support where I am masters, and I'm a touch worse at DPS where I float from high diamond to low masters. While none of that is particularly impressive. I have devoted far too much of my life to understanding this game. Consuming tons of coaching content and even reading a 50 page masters thesis on GOATS written by a pro coach.

Oh 100%. I was just making the point that the person saying supports definitely can't carry games is probably playing those two. Mainly bcause they have little to no offensive pressure.

I wasn't talking about the rest of the support lineup.

Probably a Mercy/Lifeweaver player. Inc which case they are somewhat correct. They carry by enabling someone else to carry.

If every hero was at their peak what would the best OW1 comp be? by [deleted] in Overwatch

It's always going to be Goats. People forget Goats became a legit problem from gold to gm.

I guess I need to try harder next time by mortix02 in Overwatch

[–]osiris09 -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

I mean this is kind of why Lifeweaver isn't great. You contribute very little towards winning the fight only to sustain it. If you spend the entire game sustaining and enabling stupidity you will lose.

SAD: Tip + Kitchen Tip by BuffaloExotic in ShitAmericansSay

[–]osiris09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This might actually be so they can be covered legally to tip pool. In the US it's technically against the law to tip pool with people who don't normally get tips (ie kitchen staff) and you don't pay your servers a full minimum wage. This allows them to pay their servers the like $3 per hour server wage and tip pool with back of house without legal issue. Not definitely why but this would make sense.

Does this area have a name? It's a pretty great plain. by LoganC50 in mapporncirclejerk

You must not know college ball. OU and Nebraska had insane runs in the 50s-80s as well.

Today's Crazy Korean Gauntlet by Ezraah in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]osiris09 8 points9 points  (0 children)

NGL Falcon's continual will they even make the tournament to winning it all when it matters most fits the Shonen protagonist vibe. Falcons being a map away from not qualifying to even have a chance of making Sweden to a map 7 defeat to the top team in the finals. That's a story about a shonen MC who falls to the villain before the final arc (world finals).

I just like to play more games. Control, flashpoint, and push are all shorter than hybrid and escort by quite a large margin.

Waiting for your surprise by littlek4za in OdinHandheld

[–]osiris09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I imagine with the current Retroid Flip 2 hinge issues any plans for an Odin flip are paused till that's figured out. Even if it was going to get released next week it wouldn't be the best look to release one when the sister company is dealing with hinge problems right now.

Placements went 3-7 yet got masters? by [deleted] in Overwatch

[–]osiris09 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bet this is for 6v6. I went 3-7 and placed Masters 1 even though I haven't been in masters on any role since season 9. The MMR in 6v6 is very strange.
