The game as a whole is pretty well balanced right now, at least for non-pro-play

Symmetra feels like hot AIDS right now. I'm not sure why they increased her beam range, but it's ignorant that I had ample time to outrun her on my S76 and she still managed to keep a lock for the kill.

Well balanced? at almost every level there are 5+ characters you never ever see at all. Not sure if it would "break things" but at the very least tracer and sombra need a big buff.

I feel like stats like that only will make bad players who think everyone on their team is the problem to feel more vindicated

DUDE DO YOU EVEN SPEAK GRANDMASTER? I CAN'T UNDERSTAND THIS GUY, NOODZ, CAN YOU?

But yeah, I played DVA in like 6 comp games and those were my stats. They're pretty dumb because if you're dying on DVA the other team is really good or you dun goofed. It is neat that OverSumo seems to have data that the Blizzard career profile doesn't even show you anymore like total win-loss. The rest of it is basically just OverBuff or MasterOverwatch with cute little medals for all the shit you're top 1-5% in.

So, it was me, 1 american and 5 koreans. Im like ok, cool we got this. We go to hollywood. Dont quite make it to the end, i suspect that their soldier was aimbotting, but whatever. Now we got on defense, in Hollywood, you hold the choke right. So, im Soldier on top of the building area, D'va rushes up to me, i jump down, while jumping down i turned around and the whole team is behind the fucking car. Our D.va was on the elevator shooting from up there! lol. Yeah, we died fast and got ran over. I never seen anyone try to hold the checkpoint behind the fucking car.

Win rate on Pharah is 75% so far, just really feeling good to play her. I do worry as I climb ranks that she will be an easier target to take down.

Kind of sucks I was the 6th player in a 5 person team and they wanted me to stick around but I had a fever.

I wonder how it factors in the opponent. Eg getting 2 elims per life agaibst pros vs 2 against Timmy windowlicker

Probably using strats from competitive. I think most teams stand in the building above the car. High ground is advantageous. For SoloQ I think it's dumb, not enough coordination, but if you were paired with a premade-quad or something maybe that was their plan? idk

Yep it isn't uncommon for pros to hold at the car or like you said in the cafe. Especially if you lack a Reinhardt on the team that is the best place to hold. I'll also agree that 9/10 in competitive queue it is best to just hold at the choke since that is the most obvious. But that positioning infers little defenders advantage since a well coordinated team will just lucio boost past the choke to eliminate the advantage of your DPS being ontop of cafe.

It clearly doesn't because if you were a GM McCree you'd be in GM not gold. Bronze and GM both play the same game and there is the same amount of damage potential per game so many of these stats seems somewhat silly. In fact I'd almost expect a GM player to have LESS damage per game because of the nature of coordinated play lends itself to your opponents each receiving fewer deaths instead of gold-level infinite respawn cycle strats. If anything the only stats that would actually matter would be things like accuracy and headshot%. But even then that can be misleading because it is easier to shoot someone wildly out of position.

2993 right now. I just played comp to get diamond. Think I got 3100 maybe. I'm like 20-12-1 this season. I don't think I've ever played more 30ish games of comp a season. Our 6 man isn't strong enough to make master and I hate retards yelling and giving commands in smaller stacks.
