Overwatch, It Isn't New Anymore

I completely understand your frustration for Satan, but shes a defense hero, shes suppose to be capable of those things, since defending a point through a tool-kit designed to keep her alive and you from pushing up is basically her role. Its insufferable but I feel like it was intended to be that way, and shes the only defense Hero I actually feel could defend a point effectively.

If she gets nerfed the defense category is effectively dead aside from NoobToober and the occasional MLG Sniper.

Whenever there's a RIP Tire I feel like I'm the only one that shoots it, and I'm a healer. Everyone else runs and just lets me die.

tl;dr I hate people.

EDIT: In reference to Junkrat on offense; watching Tim stream he's got gold damage on Junkrat offense on Hanamura and 0 elims. Obviously only one case, but helps illustrate how Junkrat's spam damage doesn't mean he's doing anything effective.

Sums up all healers. lol

Speaking of support, I still need to try Zenyatta. I just hope I can find a QP where people have an IQ. Between getting spawn camped by 2 Genjis, a Tracer, and Roadhog then another game getting slaughtered since I had 2 Meis on offense I'm starting to become what I hate.

**kisada** · 2016-09-23 11:30

you shouldn't have any problems practicing zen in qp where nobody wants to heal lol

**Meian** · 2016-09-23 11:36

Old pic but still applicable. Healers are essentially gods who decide who lives or dies.

In general, what I find annoying, is:
1) Reins who charge without 100% guaranteed kill or is not Nano-boosted
2) D.va who are Nano-boosted that use their ult
3) Anyone who is low hp and is not in line of sight but continue to stay that way until they die
4) Cannot hear the incredibly loud Reaper teles behind you or Tracer shooting the backline
5) WAKING UP NANO BOOSTED TARGETS
6) Humanity

zen da best

Guilty of #5 on more than one occasion. But I do help mitigate #4 by playing stay-at-home defensive Zarya or Winston because an alive support is a happy support.
Though for a #7) People who overextend on defense then die by the attackers spawn.

**kisada** · 2016-09-23 12:05

to be fair about #4, i think location detection via sound and screen flashes from getting shot at are GODAWFUL.

setting my sound to dolby atmos has helped with the former but if overwatch was even half as good as other games when being shot, it'd be an improvement.

**Tokitoki** · 2016-09-23 12:16

I usually stick fairly close to my healers when I play Zarya. A Shield on them when a flanker comes in gives me a good amount of charge and keeps them alive.

Except where you die constantly since your attackers are too braindead to look in any either direction except for what's in front of them.

**Tokitoki** · 2016-09-23 12:56

At least Zeny is OP DPS.

sure, and when that happens it lets you practice optimal positioning and your own 1v1 dps. just saying that with qp you'll get all kinds of time to figure out whatever you need to figure out.

**Corrderio** · 2016-09-23 14:19

Fair point.

**synistar** · 2016-09-23 14:23

I also wish there was a button/chat wheel shortcut for healers to say "I'm under attack!"

Hate this so much. Same with being on attack and not trying to push past the choke point.

**Corrderio** · 2016-09-23 14:49

I'm guilty of not pushing as Rein sadly. Mosly since I don't trust my team.

**Tomiko** · 2016-09-23 15:47

Watching Ster stream with his smurf or whatever. Seeing how bad these players are he's playing against makes me appreciate the idiots I get paired with. He's playing as battle Mercy and carrying his team. The other team just stands there like idiots while getting shot.

Ana player asks if Nano Boosted Widow is good. He says yeah and that NRG uses it all the time. Sure enough, the Ana boosts Widow.

**Melena** · 2016-09-23 17:46

Nothing like playing mercy trying to dash across the room as you're being chased by someone and all the dps around you ignore what's shooting at you while you beg them for help, then get pissed cause you are dead and not healing them.

**synistar** · 2016-09-23 22:56

Oh boy #4 just happened. I get yelled at my Reinheart for being the first one dead as a Zeny. He is over extended away from me as a Reaper flanks me every single time. I love the block function just for these cases.

Good news, won the match and hit 2800. And my demeanor is like Zenny, calm and tranquil. I'm even willing to admit when I fuck up.
