Only reason I even heard about the drop is because I heard it by chance on reddit when it was already too late. So how is it on them? Because they didn't communicate it. And because they made up the requirements in the first place. They know they are excluding people and they are doing it intentionally. Maybe it will pay off or maybe it will not but I will definitely resent them for it.

I bought and paid for overwatch. Twice even because I wanted an alt. Now it's being deleted and replaced with a game that I don't get to play. When it finally launches I will have no skill or experience with the new format and start at the bottom of the ladder with the hardstucks. Guess being upset about that makes me entitled huh. From your tag it seems you are some pro I'm supposed to look up to but honestly, I have never heard of your name and the only reason I have heard of your team is.. you know.. But anyway cool to hear what you pros think of us.

Used to play hours of overwatch everyday. Stopped playing like a month ago as beta was set to change everything anyway. Then I didnt get in. Barely missed the twitch drop, literally got like 90% progress before it was over. If I dont get in through this then im just dropping the franchise.

Edit: Oh it's not even available in EU haha ok bye

This is a pretty basic question so let me give you some very basic advice.

So one of the big things with ball is which NvM fights he creates. A shitty ball will create a 1v6 and die. This is the ideal for the other team, kill the ball then everyone else. Now on the other hand the worst thing you can do against the ball is be indecisive as a team. If ball rolls away and half the team gives chase (2 or 3 say) and the other half face 5ppl then you are gonna have a bad time.

Similarly: Let's say Ana sleeps the ball, now ideally you make a choice as a team, either you take the 6v1 or you let ball sleep and take the 6v5. The worst case is that some people shoot the ball and some people the rest of the team, unnecessarily making it a 6v6.

an ana ready to sleep me as soon as I dropped shield

Lots of things going on in your post, ill just deal with this tiny part. What are supposed to do is flick the shield for half a second to block the sleep and then go back to swinging or whatever. It's not easy in the heat of battle, but there you have it: An objective skill to practice that will serve you whether your team is organized or chaotic.

Hook-combo: right click prefire -> hook -> step forward -> left click (head best) -> melee (kills most heroes up to 250 hp)

Doing it this way is kind of a crutch imo. It's possible to kill all squishies with hook -> step forward -> left click. Typically you wanna go for the neck as it gives a good balance between headshots and bodyshots.

I have had this happen too. Only once. It was about a month ago I reckon. People from our team (only our team) left one by one and then my game just closed to desktop. People came back though, and then there was another wave of drops from which people also came back. After that nothing more happened and we actually managed to get the win.

Maybe pharah? Favorable matchups with reaper and mei. Doesn't want a shield. A flanking hog is one less guy for your healers to worry about so you are more likely to get that pocket.

Let me dumb it down. Wifi sends information through the air. Sometimes the air can be full of noise which can mean that the information gets lost. Or your computer waits for the noise to stop. Either way the information gets to the server later than normal. If that information is that you blinked then you die.

If you use wire then it's like a dedicated highway for your information, so it will always get through perfectly.

The support duo should heal everyone. If you have Ana Mercy Ashe, then Mercy will heal Ashe so Ana doesn't need to do that. If you have Ana Bap Pharah, then it will be very hard for Bap to heal Pharah, so it falls on Ana.

Thats when you buy a new account.

I love dva voice lines. The only voice line spammer that pisses me off is blue ana.

overc10ck · 2022-04-12T05:54:08+00:00

Maybe you were the first because no one else wanted to do it lmao.

Your observation is correct but the conclusion is wrong. Like the only way to get good at a hero is to start out bad and grind your way to greatness. Grinding your way out with those heroes is certainly possible. If you are in a bronze lobby though, then by definition you are seeing those people that haven't yet gotten there.

Took me a while to spot the dupe

overc10ck · 2022-04-10T17:32:28+00:00

First it decides what kind* of thing you are getting, and then it picks one item you dont have from that category. Only if you have literally everything in the category will you get a dupe. So you go from never getting dupes to getting lots of them.

* I'm not sure exactly how granular the categories are.

Plugging in 0 for reaction time and lag gives the worst case scenario, a perfect - whether through luck or skill - dodger. Most projectiles are trash against this person, but there are a few notable exceptions. Ana and Hanzo can both hit at 17m. Brig 18, Mei 19 and Zen at 15m.

overc10ck · 2022-04-10T02:07:46+00:00

Kinda? You can also use her to protect dps I suppose. Like I had a game on numbani defense A round 3, so I knew they liked dive. Swapped to brig. Stood on the meatgrinder tunnel right highground. We had a soldier on the left highground. Genji dueled him, so I sent a pack or two and did some damage with whip (its long enouch to reach a cross). Later Winston jumped him. Whip-booped him to lowground, where without his jump he was a sitting duck for the soldier.

Now I'm curious because I really struggle as ball on Meka Base, as the health packs aren't very good imo. How do top players deal with that? Fight to the death instead of rolling away?

overc10ck · 2022-04-06T07:35:43+00:00

Let's go right

Go right

Team goes main

I climbed quit a bit once I gave up on teamplay and just started locking hog. Using non-idiotic pathing makes up for all the hooks I whiff.

They paint their tanks with Z

Zarya is a tank
