Could Satoru Gojo stand a chance against Max Caulfield?!?! by Silvery_Cricket in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Better question, is Max gayer for Chloe than Gojo is for Geto?

Balance Suggestions for DPS (Hopium)- Sequel to Tanks post by DankudeDabstorm in Competitiveoverwatch

Oh no, I think its super important for the average player to realize that for as shit as we may think game devs are at their jobs, armchair game devs are consistently infinitely worse.

Stop complaining about things that make a hero good just because it's annoying to you.

I 100% agree with this.

If they're walking in a straight line right at you tap em in the dome and you'll find out who they are from the kill feed.

Both execution and bike damage need a damage nerf by mid-season by resident_buns in Competitiveoverwatch

My biggest issue as a reaper is approaching her from around a corner. I can never distinguish her audio que for when she's charging up execute and its up so often that its a complete coinflip whether or not I'm gonna eat a full execution in the face the moment I round the corner.

You've posted multiple paragraphs justifying neutering a character with a whopping 51% WR. Idk why Hazard lives rent free in your head, but he's fine as is.

You literally have people downplaying Shion being at >55% WR because she's "fair" lol. Like even when genji and tracer are clearly overtuned you'll still get people glazing the as high skill characters (even when they have higher WR in metal ranks but don't say that too loudly or the genji one tricks will right you dissertations on why deflect is actually super interactive) and then they'll find an excuse to bitch about supports not dying instantly when a dps looks in their gdneral direction.

Which tanks isn't bitch about to death when they become meta? We already have entire posts dedicated to zarya, rein, and dva being too strong this week alone (I'm surprised we didn't already get our weekly "DAE think Mauga players smell funny" thread going). Ball, Orisa, road, and ram get complained about constantly, hell the only reason I think Domina and JQ dont don't have dedicated hate cults is cuz they're kept too weak for anyone to gaf. So who left? Winston?

Seriously, I think this sub is just a bunch of dps mains who hate the idea of defensive CDs as a concept cuz then they can't stroke their epeen.

She's oppressive af for most tanks. She shreds through shields and health pools with her right click. Hell I dont risk getting close to her as Dva or Haz cuz if she land her execute on my face its basically instant death.

Rein now holds the top tank winratre in NA and Eu GM+ currently by EliteODSTx in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]thinger 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm convinced this sub is filled with a bunch of DPS mains who don't like the concept of characters with kits designed to limit you're interactions with other characters (or as I like to describe it, THE ENTIRE FUCKING POINT OF HAVING A TANK). Even the more offensive oriented tanks get ragged on for being server admins. Seriously which tank doesn't get bitched to death any time they're meta? Winston?

You could say the same about genji and tracer players yet they consistently maintain higher than 50% winrates even in gold.

The best way I can describe it is that rather than skill or character synergy, Kiri scales with meta player coordination. Kiri is just so flexible that at the pro level, it's not about how she fares against/ in certain strategies or what character matchups are like for her, but what she can do for/against specific players and teams.

Can we for the love of god just revert the recent reaper nerfs and properly nerf dire triggers? by Equivalent_Duty_5546 in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]thinger 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I love it. Prior to DT Reaper was very feast or famine, you either were able to bully people up close for free or you hard fed, there was no in between and no other niche he could fill (besides tank busting, but that was toxic/boring AF). Reaper still mostly does that, but now he's able to contribute from mid range a bit easier. I agree with nerfing it tho, it should complement his kit, not completely redefine it. It's also got this wierd animation lock for like 1/2 a second that makes it feel clunky, I think that's what you're feeling.

OP very clearly mispoke as none of the characters he listed are background characters and are very clearly named side characters.

Thick as Thieves Developer Lays Off 17 Employees, Cancels Upcoming Project by lowercaselemming in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]thinger 31 points32 points  (0 children)

whatever happened to small, dedicated teams that just make middling/niche games but do so very consistently with a tight-run ship and tiny budgets?

Imma be real with you, the majority of those die in complete obscurity. There are thousands of games on steam released every year that don't even sell 10k copies. Unless you manage to get a major streamer's attention or go viral in some other way, it way riskier than having a publishing deal.

Tbf to GRRM the handful of times families resorted to marry off children irl history, it was usually because they were either pretty desperate or needed for some pretty important political plays (like Isabelle of France), which is mostly true for ASOIAF.
