People complain about barrier watch being a thing, but they're also buffing Sombra and EMP reduces a lot of the efficacy of having shields and barrier heavy team comps. I realize that coordination is lacking in a lot of ranks, but it only takes one good EMP wombo combo to wipe a team out and make it nigh impossible for teams to set back up.Also, I somehow feel like barrier healing would probably still not be deemed as valuable as like actual healing unless it allowed Sym to replenish Zarya and Zen's shields as well as the shields from her generator.

Zenyatta's Discord Orb is better than Mercy's Damage Boost, and therefore would be better than this just by virtue of it being a debuff rather than an allied buff.Zen's Discord Orb cuts into damage reductions for the enemy, like Roadhog and Bastion, whereas with Damage Boost's boosted damage is calculated afterwards. For instance, Soldier does 20 damage per bullet. On Discorded Roadhog, he does 26 damage per bullet. Damage Boosted Solider also does 26 damage per bullet. However, while using Take a Breather, Discorded Roadhog takes 16 damage per bullet from a Soldier bullet. A Damage Boosted So…

I don't really see how an extra half-second of slowdown on a target with 3 7 meter dashes is really a net buff when we're discussing countering mobility. The issue isn't that she can't freeze people fast enough, it's that Mei should counter mobility as literally her only job and doesn't because any movement ability can escape from her and she can't close that gap.These buffs aren't going to make her better against mobile characters unless they've already used their abilities up and, again, Mei already would've been able to kill them before this change so what's the point?

In my extensive experience as a healer, the only people that complain about healing are players that expect to be pocketed the entire match and then get mad when the overextend and aren't immediately given a bandaid. I've played matches where I've done 25k healing and had people on my team say that I wasn't doing anything the entire match. You kind of just have to keep on trucking and ignore people that have no idea what they're talking about.

Tbh, having a torb and a sym in the face of Lucio is pretty much the only effective way I've found to stop him. The only time's it's failed is if he's ulted and then jumped down or if one of his teammates jumped in to wipe the Sym turrets before Lucio grabbed the flag.

02/09/2018 01:56 AMPosted by ComftblyNumbWhat the eff. Are you kidding me? How is that even remotely playable?I mean, I have like a 67% winrate across all modes and I've always played OW like this. The last like two seasons of comp, I've done my placements with actually good internet and made it to Diamond as Sym with like an 85% win rate.Maybe I'm just that good, baby. B)

Tbh, the smurfing issue takes a lot of fun out of the game for me. It's incredibly demoralizing because you never know if someone's a smurf or a new player until you get into a match with them and it always seems like I get the team with the actually new player and the enemy team has the m+kb widow main that's trying to grind their account up to play comp with.It's even worse when they have names like "B4nM3Bl1zz4rd" or "OWCh34t3r" "Tr4c3rXDXD" (these are made up approximations of names I've seen, not real players) because you know you're in for a bad time.I mean, sometimes smurfs are also jus…

Even with all those heroes, if he ults, flies off a wall onto the flag that he can instantly pick up, and jumps onto another wall, he'll be gone before you can kill him. Especially if his team is pushing with him.Lucio makes what could be a fun game mode into a 'which team has the better lucio' or 'which team has the better lucio counters'.

My ping floats around 650 and, because I'm a glutton for punishment, I end up playing a lot of Sym, Mercy, and, now, Moira. It's not entirely terrible as long as you're good at predicting where the enemy will go. I can get kills as Mercy pretty consistently at this point, even with 650 ping. The only time it's a ball buster is when you're trying to use a movement ability or escape from a D.Va ultimate.
