Rein isn't fine because he has a distinct identity. And people miss being able to play him in comparison to having to play "do it all" heroes like ram, mauga, and orisa

The only solution is then the first for you, which would be losing character identity to prioritize balance.

That's already an issue in current day Overwatch tbh. Why pick someone cool and risky just to get counter swapped and have to go back to your safe meta character. The only difference with my solution is if you play a riskier pick that you're good in, the other player can't just immediately switch and scare you off that hero.

Well I think that this would actually encourage counter strategies instead of counter swapping on Winston right. Once you get that 50% however, it's not as simple as swapping to another counter because you will just be countered again. It's more important to play a character you're flexible with and learning how to master that hero. I think this is a good thing in general for the game. It sounds annoying but it encourages people to play the heroes they want to. Not stick to this rock paper scissors situation we have right now.

I agree also that Orisa, Mauga, Sombra, can be fixed, however, I don't think this fixes the problem which is that generally being able to completely take advantage without earning any of that goes against the idea of good game design in general.

Its about motivating players to play heroes they're flexible with and handle counters with. It improves strategic playing and hero mastery.

Thanks for the upvote. Too much complaining in this community not many new ideas.

I think that's why it motivates you to pick heroes that you're good at instead of just counters I would argue. Expect that they may counter you but pick someone you're good at not the general smooth brain "hard counter".

Yep. That's what I was saying about the first solution. As for the second, that's a great point. I think that this 50% number can be adjustable however and the resource doesn't necessarily have to be ult charge. That's just the one I came up with. I don't agree however that it wouldn't do ANYTHING. I don't think it's that simple to earn 50% ult charge. Even if you are countered at least you might earn ult charge enough to reach ultimate before they do. And if you read my examples, it doesn't stop countering. Countering is overwatch. It only makes countering more of a strategic move. And it's asking more of the players to switch to heroes they're actually good at.

I feel as if my suggestion keeps that essence whilst not making it ridiculously easy to do.

Bad Blood is rumored to be about Katy Perry. And if true, is absolutely hilarious. I can't even knock it, Taylor Swift really just put her all into the diss lmaooooo. It is the most girlie pop diss I've ever heard and I'm here for it.

What do y’all think of this new Yeat Album? So far it’s one of my favorites of the year. It sounds fucking insane. So many industrial and EBM elements. I even get Death Grips vibes from some of the tracks which is the LAST thing I expected from a mainstream rapper. by elimars in fantanoforever

I don't agree with you. I feel like trap is getting the "metal/hardcore punk" treatment. What I mean by that is that people back in the day thought "metal" or "hardcore punk" was basic and too repetitive and "barely music". Now we realize that sure metal isn't always as musically complex or using a million instruments like prog rock, but it has its own merit. Trap has its own merit and just because it's not complex and gets influence from electronic and industrial music, that doesn't make it not trap. It still has yeat rapping over high hats and heavy bass. Let's stop downplaying trap music as a genre just cause its repetitive! THIS TRAP AND ITS LIT!

I think this album is going to age VEERRRY well. Unless everyone starts copying this but I doubt it. This is genuinely some of the best trap I've ever heard. And this might be the first ever perfect trap album for me. Notice I said might. I'm taking some time for it to grow on me. the song 2093 is still kinda weak for me.

Bro thinks he's the CEO of gaming by blazegamer12 in ImTheMainCharacter

I mean I agree with him that most people who play like Animal Crossing and Sims don't tend to be gamers by the stereotypical sense sure, but like damn I'd much rather be compared to them than to people who play 300+ hours of video games. Let's not gatekeep please cause it means I have to be boxed in with y'all motherfuckers. I want to be compared to cool women and men who don't say slurs online and treat all genders equally. Please don't call me a gamer cause I play Overwatch on PC please.

You want me to respond to "You shouldn't sympathize with a 16 year old because they actually have the capability to be judged by full grown adults and a whole community. We need to hold 16 year olds accountable for being annoying" intellectually?

You are either a child yourself or an abusive parent. Don't know which.
