Overwatch, It Isn't New Anymore

From the blog post:

If you become inactive or leave within the first two minutes of the game, the entire match will be canceled. Leaving before the end of a match will make you ineligible to join a new game until the original match has been completed.

What really suck is it seems like Payload matches count for way more rank than other matches.

back in top 500 boys

Well had my first toxic match. Tied 1-1 on koth match, lose the third round, have this guy start screaming in his mic how we all suck. End up losing 3-1, he's raging in chat. Tell him to cut down on the coffee. Told I'm so awful at the game that I should uninstall, sell my cd key and slit my wrists.

Relevant for wtfness.

Sorry I was terribad last night guys. Had a long day at work and a 1-5 record for the night was not what I was looking forward to. Will try again Friday; have a wake to go to tonight after work.

I'm watching Poke's stream (another pro player) and he just did a crazy Genji tech. He dashed into the ledge at the back of Zolskaya B site and ended up at the front entrance to that building. I don't even know what the fuck. These guys are too good.

lol things didn't get a whole lot better later in the night. we won a few with Ksandra and Nitsuki but ended the night on back to back losses

[Day]

Can't wait till these fuckin mlg tracers and genjis get placed/ranked way above me so I dont have to deal with that shit (die over and over). Christ.

No worries Toki, rough night for most of us I think.

[tyven]

Tracer is my bane. I feel like a good one is almost impossible to kill if you don't have something that just kills her in 1 hit or a 1-2 combo. Like Winston or any shotgunner feels like they should be able to beat her but for whatever reason I just can't. Any advice on this for a hard counter? Torb can be pretty annoying for her but that doesn't necessarily help if say we're offense and they're defense.

[Day]

Same here, I can't kill that bitch even with something like Roadhog. If you get close they just E. Shit tilts me into oblivion.

[Tokitoki]

Roadhog is the best counter for her. Just have to hit the hook.

[synistar]

Also Flashy McRightClick can kill her, but most of the time you're looking forward instead of backwards. Kinda the same with Reinheart. Another strategy would be to have a defensive Winston playing guardian angel around the support. But then Winston gets bored and ADD kicks in and they want to kill mans. Zarya also kinda works to help the support survive but unless you got fast twitch reflexes, good luck aiming Tracer or Genji down with either left or right clicks.

And I still need to add most of you guys to my friends list. Been lazy about that.

[Tokitoki]

Also Flashy McLeftClick

ftfy.


I know his right click can still kill Tracer and other low HP guys. Most people are just left click HSing people now.

[tyven]

reaper spray and pray is the only thing that works for me against tracer but it is also the only thing that works for me in general. bless up

[Day]

Just have to hit the hook.

Against potatoes np, these fuckin closed beta nerds just dash all around you shoot you in the face, then in the ass, how can she slap

[Tokitoki]

I think Roadhog is one of my better heroes so I did pretty well with him even while we were getting spanked. I can usually take care of the low HP guys pretty well; it's those fucking Soldiers that wreck me.

[Seravi Edalborez]

My issue with Winston v Tracer is that most of the time I seem to lose or come out of it almost dead.

Winston's gun is like what, 60 dps? So I need her in my crosshairs for 2.5s for a kill. That's ample time for anyone to recall generously. Tracer meanwhile does what 240 dps if she doesn't miss (and only 1s reload), more with headshots on Winston's fat face? Granted he has a little armor too but she has you dead in 4-6 seconds. If even half of that is before she recalls it's a real coinflip between ~350 HP winston and full hp Tracer. Imo anyways. I know I could probably be using bubble a little smarter to help but this has never seemed like a hard counter to her for me. Same with people who say Winston is a hard counter to Widow, I don't really see it when he still takes like almost 4 whole seconds to kill her. At best.

Not exactly complaining that Winston's damage is awful but if he's supposed to be a counter for these guys it's certainly not a "lockdown, change chars scrub" one.

Yea I know. Just the right click still good to kill the sub 200hp heroes. I never right click a tank though.

[Nitsuki]

Thanks for the games tyven, day, ksandra. At least we did work for the short time i played. But i had to go help my girl with her cosplay.

Tracers and genjis i'm sure are everyone's bane. I really need to practice genji because his potential with an effective player is unbelievable. Our games were good, and luckily enough that one koth match with that tracer i was able to predict her ports. I do apologize that i did talk a lot on the mic. Lol
