    Valiant seem very good, their tanks are excellent, and Im not sure Id place Soon as a top tracer purely on mechanics alone but he seems very very consistent which is what a team needs. Dallas seem a bit all over the place and Id love to know what their strategy actually is/was when buying...

    Im so glad they fixed the players health bars to actually reflect the team colours. In the preseason everything was just white on white and really hard to tell apart. Much much better now.

    Sounds like sarcastic advice but honestly just play it. The performance based MMR will get you where you should be pretty quickly, so don't worry about lack of experience. For heroes, mercy is always wanted and very good to have an impact whilst learning the game. Soldier has a fantastic...

    Mercy needs to be nerfed because her kit is unlike anything in the game where you can literally bring back people from the dead on a relatively short CD to completely nullify picks, and can also turn a 'lost' teamfight into a nearly guaranteed win. She's absolutely absurd, and there is such a...

    Just to reconfirm that mercy is absolutely absurd right now, especially at lower rank. The single rez is strong enough, but the two rezzes in a team fight, plus aoe heals and orissa ulti AND her dps to kill ulting pharahs/chase down kills is just insane. If you are in any game without her and...

    I feel like there's a few problems at the core of overwatch. The main problem is the elo system which I think leads to games being grindy, but thats not going to change but just to say in any ELO system as you reach your maximum rank its a fucking grindy nightmare (for me anyway). On top of...

    Dark Souls 3

    Has she played it yet? BB was my first souls game and i pretty much bought a playstation 4 just for it and last of us. BB has remained one my favourite gaming experiences ever, just absolutely fantastic and I still appreciate it playing it through 2 years alter.

    Getting my friend this for xmas, has never played BB/any dark souls game. Tried to convince him to buy a PS4 for BB but no dice. Guess this will have to do :)

    It depends on your own ability and whether you filling that particular role strengthens the team on the whole, or whether you're better just playing your main even if it doesn't exactly fit the team comp. And it also depends greatly on your rating. For example, Im diamond to master rating...

    Played 2 games. 3 smurfs (all like level 27 playing insane widows/genjis). Logged off. Think im about done with OW for a while. Whats the point in having any matchmaking when masters+ smurfs can just log in and destroy your whole team.

    In one of those games there was a solo healer ana on a team trying to push 2 CP. Seems bronze extends all the way to masters

    Overwatch

    Yeah, games with such a wide division of skill largely seem to end up with who can deal with the better carry, usually genji just fucking murdering everyone Also whats with gold people playing Ana all the time. 'I have a good idea lets play the hero with the lowest winrate for supports, and...

    Hearthstone

    pretty unexcited for this expansion, the weapons feel pretty clunky and out of place and recruit doesn't seem terribly inspiring. Out of all the cool player designed cards that kripp has picked the best of, or other ideas floating around and seeing what other games have done, this expansion...

    Yeah I feel the same. I played BB on a friends recommendation, and near the end I mentioned to him that I was waiting for everything to be tied up together and told him what I thought (first soulsbourne game i played , 100% blind and no internet help), and he was like er ... nope, they dont tell...

    Overwatch

    Yeah its not fun whatever the reason, and it seems ingrained across all games which require cooperation. Logged into hots to take a break from OW, both games had people with 50+ games of a hero and a 20-30% winrate. Nono, im sure itll work out THIS time. And those players are always the most...

    Soldier is the best value I get from carrying un-carriable teams. He has great self sustain, poke, some burst with rocket, and his ulti is a gamechanger which doesn't require much skill at all. He's the most well rounded DPS for carrying bads imo, if you can aim somewhat averagely, position ok...

    Medals don't mean shit though. I'm not telling you who to play or that you aren't good on moira But consider this, if a team had no healers and some roadhog or soldier was gold medals for damage and healing etc, would the overall team composition be improved if he swapped to mercy ...

    Overwatch

    Moira feels like ana, if rating is < diamond pretty sure they are gonna do fuck all healing and I'd rather have an afk mercy left clicking on my team or even a proper dps. In a game today some moira used R to follow me around in a circle and try to kill me when our team capped their point. She...

    Overwatch

    Yeah the smurfs are a big problem, even if you're like masters its easy enough to drop rating to play with your low ranked plat friends and you just completely melt the entire other team unless they have a smurf too.

    Overwatch

    The reason the game is so toxic and not that much fun is that elo systems are inherently unenjoyable and I would argue unsuitable for team-based fps shooters. No matter how good you are, eventually you will stall and end up having to grind out those 52% win rates to see any progress, and whether...

    Umbilical cord are the main thing as Noodle said, make sure you consume 3 of them before you finish if you want the alternate endings / boss. There's quite a few secret areas in the game, best thing is probably to check off what you've done against Bloodborne Cheat Sheet Did you go to cainhurst?

    The game is pretty streaky Also, logged into first game today, offensive symmetra on route 66, placing teleports on cliffside to kill team. Logged out. Peak time seems fairly unplayable if you don't stack, or even if I win I find the constant battle against my throwing team mates just isn't...

    Man I don't want retards who get beaten by 11 year olds to be able to gamble with lootboxes. Also, the critical point isn't that YOU are still on a level playing field in overwatch, its that the 'lootbox / monetize everything' fiesta is sweeping through gaming because retards who get beat by...

    why cant i just buy the skin i want in overwatch, why do i have buy 10 lootboxes full of shit at a chance of getting the skin i want because they make more money this way, at expense to the consumer, its exploitative OW doesnt get a pass just because its cosmetic, the system is still total...

    I assume you're trolling at this point trying to reason that you can 'overcome' a pharah flying 50 feet in the air Actually no Please show me this amazing pharah counter strat, id love to see your vods. Maybe its the new hidden OP

    For a start , I said counters not hard counters. You play a character that literally cannot reach the enemy pharah 'Dominated' 'Lack knowledge on game' Ok

    Overwatch

    Yeah exactly. The game has literally been designed to have counters and to encourage fluid hero picks and flexibility, yet its gotten to the point that the company itself has to step in because the autism is so strong that people still insist on playing terrible choices. Its like deciding to...

    Your first part doesn't have anything to do with one tricking an off meta pick. The SR inflation came whilst the system adjusted to Mercys new rez and healing output. I personally feel this system needs improved, but whatever, its only for a few days. Your second part makes a lot of...

    Overwatch

    I've heard this a lot, but is this actually true? When characters have been changed by blizzard (e.g.zen and lately mercy) their SR has absolutely been inflated whilst the system has evened out. But in the case of one tricks, if barely anyone else plays them, isnt the distribution of skill...

    Overwatch

    Why is it shitty? You signed up to play a team based game which is centered around dynamic hero selections and counters. By refusing to swap in situations where symmetra is hard countered you are literally throwing the game for your team mates, which goes against their policies and creates a...

    One-Tricking is Officially Bannable. • r/Overwatch Ignore the clickbait title, but it seems some dude got 24hr suspension for only playing torb. Be interesting to see if its just a salty GM or if blizzard are shifting their stance a bit.
