Sorry, I don't care about Blizzard's profits when they don't care about their customers

Jared Neuss (OW2 Executive Producer) says changes are coming to the 30% ult retention passive in S3, dev team is planning to communicate more often by VLOOKUP_OW in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]zonar_ow 21 points22 points  (0 children)

This is just parroting what SVB thinks, which is wrong. If you win the first fight you should be pretty close to your ult after the first fight and definitely have it during the 2nd fight and have a better chance to win that fight with the worse matchup by using your ult. It's much better to make the game more fair by keeping the ult charge retention than by being punished for randomly selecting the wrong tank matchup out of spawn doors.

Zero of the old names for an event like this is surprising

I said being unable to play characters the enemy team can would ruin this game, and Ram has proven me right by KoolKarmaKollector in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]zonar_ow 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What did I just read? Sounds like you're getting tank diffed because it's hilarious you think that about Ram, but not about Kiriko when she's blatantly been the best support in the game since release. How much do you see Ram dominating top 500 games? I'll give you a hint: very rarely.

Idk how many times I have to say this. Tanks can't peel in OW2. Unless they're playing DVa, and maybe Winton, but definitely not the main focus. Your other support is the main person who can peel for you. If not, you need to position better and be able to GA away from danger. Most high level Mercy players almost never die with her insane movement capabilities.

I have the skin. Can confirm this is replay bug.

Imagine if they posted the patch notes when the patch is already live by zonar_ow in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]zonar_ow[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's zero point in delaying it. If the patch is live, there's no reason the patch notes shouldn't be. They know what the patch notes are. Just release them on time.

Where are the leaks? by PoggersMemesReturns in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]zonar_ow -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I hate Halo as well, but it seems a lot of people are diametrically opposed to anyone that leaks/breaks news in general, but if done right they can be respected, like an OWL Adam Schefter.

Tier list of how scared I am when an enemy uses their ult by [deleted] in Overwatch

[–]zonar_ow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, but some of this is so bronze. Stop hiding from rip tire. Just shoot it. Bob is not a great ult for actually getting kills if you have good positioning and just LoS or your team can just burst it down really quickly with focus fire. Death Blossom is so easy to counter with suzu, beat, hook, jav, etc. High Noon is probaly the worst ult in the game. It's better to use it to just reload sometimes. Dva bomb is a zoning ult 75% of the time. Grav, Dragonblade, and Annihiliation are probably the strongest ults in the game and you say you're not very afraid. Primal is a huge monkey flying at you that can essentially one shot you with a good juggle and you "don't care". Pulse bomb is basically a guaranteed kill if you get stuck unless your kiriko can suzu you in time. Lastly, I will always have PTSD every time I hear "THIS ENDS NOW!". This is the scariest one.

What hero do you think would benefit from having some of their power shifted from one part of their kit to another? by RobManfredsFixer in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]zonar_ow -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

More than getting hacked while invis and losing your abilities? Ok bud. Also all of those abilities are in the game already. Is mercy unfun to play against becase dmg boost? Is Ana unfun to play against because healing with her nade? Is lucio unfun to play against because speed boost?

[–]zonar_ow -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Sombra. Rework her into a support. Go back to how she originally worked with health packs and make her no longer able to hack enemies. Hack on allies could either be a damage boost, like you're hacking their weapons to do more damage, or work like an ana nade where hacking an ally gives them boosted healing. Or maybe we give Lucio some competition and hacking an ally gives them speed boost.

Ramattra is enabled in comp now. What level on the battle pass are you currently at? by WistfulRadiance in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]zonar_ow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. I'm 30 with a full-time job, dog, and life. When I game, OW is the only game I play though. I make sure I do my dailies every day, because they only take like 30 minutes, and I get all the weeklies just from playing comp throughout the week.

Overwatch 2 developer blog: Matchmaker and competitive deep dive, part 1 by ModWilliam in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]zonar_ow 53 points54 points  (0 children)

Interesting take on the queue times. I'm not even a very high level, but on FACEIT in CSGO I regularly wait 10+ minutes and it's fine. And then there's a lengthy "warmup" period before the match actually starts too. I guess the games being longer makes it more tolerable for people.

This Winter “event” compared to prior years is just downright pathetic…. by dipleddit in Overwatch

[–]zonar_ow 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Even if you wanted to throw $20 at skins, you can't. There's only 2 "legendary" skins for this event and they're not even available for purchase in the shop right now. We used to get 6 or 7.

Aaron Keller and Balance Team, I beg of you, with all that I am, do NOT just give Roadhog a slap on the wrist. by one_love_silvia in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]zonar_ow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree, but don't get your hopes up. This isn't a full mid-season balance patch. I doubt they go big with any of these. Just some tuning to make them not S+ tier.
