02/12/2018 03:07 PMPosted by OrdealByFireI mash “Group up!” constantly and no one listens. No one. They go in to battle in a single file line and get obliterated one at a time. Winston jumps in and dies before a healer can get to him. Solider sprints in and dies before firing a bullet. I can’t do it anymore. As a Zarya main, my success sort of depends on teammates grouping up. I’m only as useful as my bubble shields, and when people don’t group up, I’m essentially worthless. Feel free to add me on PS4 if you aren’t trash and actually play the game the correct way. Any time I think Diamond is …

Placed 1499 S3, climbed up to 2756 same season.

You know, it's entirely plausible for a common hop to go down and the server may decide you are disconnected before you find another open hop. Living in the same general location with the same ISP doesn't help your case either.On the most part, the ping barely goes up. It's not on Blizzard's end, it's on yours. Even if you can't control it. Don't play on peak hours for your neighborhood, ensure your network adapters (ethernet or wi-fi) is working properly, make sure it's not an issue with your ISP. That's it.

02/07/2018 02:45 PMPosted by rAd3aLi`m not low SR ... and i think in higher SR ppl don`t even play him. just try playing against him as flanker and got mine blown in your face and insta die then play as support and die from blind spam while u staying on the playload whit your tank my point is he is anoing !@# hell and he need to be not nerfed but instead fixed before his buff nobody played him in high plat and early diamond now hes is every single gameSince when was high-gold/low-plat high SR? Also, your grammar and spelling is horrible. It matters a lot when you're trying to get your point a…

...The individual-performance based SR below 3000 is honrstly fine. If you had overbuff, I bet you that all of my heroes that I do not mainly play (that is anyone other than a healer outside from Ana and Zenyatta) can still beat yours, statistic-wise.Lol, you're just proving my point. I said this game is about the stats and metrics (rather than winning or losing matches) and your comment is "my stats are awesome!"We all game metrics in school and at work, so it's second nature. Only difference with OW is they don't tell us what they are. The only way this could be more fun is if they perio…

Hello, there OP, I would like to tell you my experiences. I started this game on Season 3. As soon as I hit level 25, I played competitive and ended up losing all of my placement matches except the last one. I was extremely naive and simply wanted to play the game casually and did not take competitive seriously (which was abnormal for me in retrospect coming from other competitive games that I did take seriosuly such as CS:GO and DotA 2). On my last placement game, one guy suggested for me to play Zenyatta and I followed their judgement. On Numbani, I fragged out harder than any other person o…

I was in a very similar position before (was also placed at bronze). However, I climbed because I finally found the hero that suited me during the time (Zenyatta). I could deal damage while healing teammates.As Gazzor has said before, posting a VOD can help us analyze any mistakes you may be subconsciously making (reading up on the four stages of competency help a lot in learning how to identify, analyze, and fix mistakes).However, I would also recommend playing Roadhog. He is a very easy to play hero and, with the right practice, can survive and self-sustain very easily while getting kills an…

I'm stuck in gold on this account (2100 sr) but i'm high platinium (2800 sr) on my smurf/brother account.... Thx toxic players/rage quit etc.A couple of things need to be said here. 1) It's not a smurf if it's higher than you. 2) You brother is most likely the platinum player, and not you.Now you may be thinking, "Oh, but I win some games at platinum." Platinum is one of the hardest places to climb out of. The reason why the "gatekeeper" theory is so widespread is because you're also dealing with people who have dropped from a couple of bad games but are still relatively better. In order to re…

01/29/2018 03:29 PMPosted by BullroseI don't see how role queue would add anything to the game other than constricting a diverse roster. Overwatch is unique in the sense that hero swapping is encouraged; locking players into roles seems counterproductive and unreasonable. Forcing composition would prevent unique makeups such as quad-tank or solo healing.Further, I don't see how it would fix bickering about composition. Players will still complain about off-meta picks within those roles, e.g., Moira over Mercy, or Torb over Tracer.It's a League of Legends issue. Role queue means you either get …
