Me too but I'm a much lower rank than purely and Erupt. Barely hit plat last season. Still like to think I can at least hold my own. --- Double Post Merged, Mar 6, 2017 --- You've bought at least Titanfall 2, Witcher 3, and Doom in the time since Overwatch has been out. Excuses man.
I know and winston and zen got buffs. It looks like you will be playing genji all the time again. @MultiLockOn you crazy hipster. @AceOfSpades I think you are a good Lucio. You just need to deepen your hero pool. You should definitely add another healer. That was probably the biggest reason we lost some of those games and also the fact we were playing with people from high gold to low diamond.
I wish I could play with you Ace lol stupid SR restrictions I was close to uninstalling last night bc I was so pissed about Bastion and now Ana heh
Dude, what is your SR now and play something you suck at so you lose if that is the issue. I have not even finished my placements yet. I am exclusively soloing for my placement matches and playing nothing but tracer. Should be placed in low diamond as long as I win the majority of the games and so far so good on that. I miss you as a dive partner.
I also play console. We should play some time. I maintained diamond throughout all of the last season, but I've been stuck on high gold this season. I've been solo queuing for a while now because none of my friends play this game anymore. Even after the nerf, a good hog is still enough to take out Bastion in my experience. Also, Winston buffs needed to happen, but I'm not so sure about Zen. Blizzard just really likes to buff Tank busters apparently.
@purely fat Frantjc isn't even placed yet but my second account got placed in masters its first season when I went like 6-4 :/ so I'm pretty upset. Just gonna let it decay while I played Rocket League and Destiny. I can't lose no matter who I play Plus I'd feel bad pseudo-intentionally throwing a game. Yeah they want tank meta gone. With the addition of Orisa's shield, Winston's shield buff, Rein's staple position on any team and Sym's shield, Zen's discord-through-the-shield buff kind of needed to happen for dive to be viable. Winstons buff needed to happen, I'm happy about it. Sombra may be viable as a "disruptor" like they want her to be in this shield heavy meta so I think that's why they buffed her hacking abilities.
I think the biggest thing with Sombra is people really don't know how to play her. They try to play her like other flankers in this game and that is not what she is. She is disruptor just not in the same way as other characters that can get into the back line. I think we are going to have another ana issue on our hands with her possibly.
Ana definitely needed a Nerf on pc, but this might be too much on console. I don't know how I feel about sombra, I typically do well with her but I was looking at community stats and she averages about half the dps soldier deals. I think people just don't know how to use her. Every other change looks good, winyatta is back
I think Ana will be fine on console. I have played with some pretty good ana's. Erupt being one of them and this will not hurt them that much. They will just be less of an offensive threat. Heal denies is still the most broken thing about her. I don't really look at sombra as a main dps. I look at her as a more support/garbage man character where you spend most of your time cleaning up weak enemies and building ult charge. If you play her right you can get your ultimate for every fight.
Yeah heal denial is essential to her kit, but her burst heal was insane as well. She had better healing than every other support with much more utility, and more dps than all but zenyatta. I still feel like her utility is why she is picked so highly, much like Lucio, but these were some big number reductions. I need to see it in practice. Sombra is definitely more support/dps than pure dps but she can still melt squishy heroes. I agree they're probably going to buff her until she's too strong. I've only played her for a few hours, but I never felt like her translocator wasn't up when I needed it. It shouldn't always be readily available, and it gives you plenty of time to place it and make something happen then replace after the 6 second window. 4 seems too short imo.
This. Her nade needed nerfed (maybe not quite as hard as it was but I'm biased) so she can't 1v1 flankers as easily ...but her rifle needs to do 70 damage at a minimum imo And then for consistency's sake (and for the sake of not annhilating her) make her healing do 70 healing too..that's still a big drop at 30%, but wouldn't be to the point of ending her lol I'm upset stop making me talk about it
I think they nerf everything in the strangest way. Like Mccree is in a good spot now but instead of taking multiple patches they could have just increased his spread on hammer fan and improved his fall off range and he would have been fine. All Ana really needed was her grenade to be adjusted. Lower the amount of time heals are denied and decrease the percentage that is gained from the grenade for healing. Also, we should all try to play tonight.
Most of the time I've played quick play recently I've been doing Zenyatta, so hopefully I can get better at him.
I might be on, shoot me an invite if you're playing. I haven't done any placements this season, idk how that works with playing with other people.
