I do feel like she probably is getting nerfed. She has decent health, iceblock heal makes her even tankier, wall can't be destroyed unless you pop an ult into it and even then it's not instant and lasts kinda long, her beam thing does good damage and has surprisingly long range(you'd expect kinda symmetra beam range but it actually hits like really far) and any time you freeze you get a free headshot with your alt fire which does ridiculous damage(balanced by the shitty charge time, but obviously irrelevant when enemies don't move). And her ult is super dumb if you have to fight on a point like during overtime etc. She has a ton of utility, tons of defenses, good offense, counters a lot of shit and is surprisingly mobile if you use the icewall vertically.

She really isn't that strong. Widow makes her life hell basically, anyone with an escape just has to save it if she's close. Most heroes have a speed boost/escape. New hero people will learn to play against her soon.

The more you play, the better opponents you'll be matched with. By better opponents, I mean the asshole try-hards from League of Legends.

You can reflect a lot of ridiculous stuff. For example you can reflect Mei's ult when she throws it, which basically makes a Mei ult for your team instead. It's pretty cool I think. Just wish reflecting Roadhog's hook would pull, that'd be pretty hilarious sometimes. It just reflects the damage atm.
Been playing a bunch of Reinhardt, Winston and Zarya since they're the tanks I usually don't play, they're pretty nice. I don't really like how squishy winston and zarya feel in comparison to other tanks, but winston is really nice for singling out people and running them down and zarya ult is OP as fuck so that events out. Reinhardt is pretty cool, I had played him a bit but found him a bit boring and not very deadly, but you can actually do pretty crazy stuff with him once you know the abilities better and shit.
Kinda wish they had more supports in the game though, there's only 3 real supports(Symmetra is basically just utility/defense, doesn't feel like a support at all) and one of them is straight up unusable against a semi decent widowmaker/genji, so that really limits your option. Mercy is a pain in the dick to play with bad teammates so it's mostly Lucio, who's great but I'd like some variety.

It's pretty funny how when he says that, you see everyone running behind shit to hide, like in those old westerns when the guys started duelling and you see all the plebs closing their doors and curtains and shit. Ulti is generally shit though, he sometimes kill 2people, most of the time only kill one. A lot of ults are way more annoying, like Zarya "Against the Patriarchy", or whatever russian thing she says, I have no idea really.

Prepare for epic saltiness when not many people get into beta this weekend. Also fuck the streams, when they announced it was getting released in June the hype train died. With how they were ramping up announcements for Blizzcon, I feel people thought release was imminent.

They apparently broke some shit in this patch too and some people are reporting constant crashes. Didn't have an issue and judging from ppl complaining in matches, it's like 1/10-15 or so, but if they don't isolate the issue before this weekend, there's gonna be a lot of people crying about the crashes I assume.
Can't believe there is already Overwatch clones coming out.
Paladins is in beta, by I believe the people who made Smite.

I think it's more like everybody got the same idea and shit. There's the Borderlands looking one too and another and stuff.
Watched some Paladins streams yesterday, looked like shit tbh. Didn't look like good FPS at all, the projectiles looked weird and it was hard to tell if you hit anything, movement felt slow, the map(not sure if there's more than one, I only saw one I think) was very open ended and very basic, I don't know, it felt pretty meh. There's also some weird ass RNG aspect where you get cards when you level up and they seem to be random within a specific pool and if you get certain ones it's better and they're kinda like talents. Oh and yeah, there's levels so the FPS aspect is limited by RPG elements.
I don't know, definitely didn't look good at all. The Borderlands one looked pretty alright from what I've seen of it. There's another too with a weird color scheme on everything iirc but I forgot the name or who makes it. Everyone's trying to get into the FPS stuff with them CSGO numbers I assume.
