  • Why do top players "tap point" when it's not overtime.

    I was watching Hadi in the Twitch Rivals tournament. When he was playing D.Va, he kept saying "I go to tap point, then come back." And he would literally just fly over to the point and then come back to the team fight. Or he'd instruct their Tracer to "go tap point once." It wasn't overtime. So what's the purpose of this? Just to draw enemy attention and punish them for pushing too far forward? Remind them they have to fall back to defend point?

  • OWCS Youtube Drops????

  • Replace child care classes in schools with playing tank in OW

    Don't know if every school in the US does this but mine had classes where you learned how to properly care for a baby with toy babies and strollers and stuff. After 4 years of solo tanking I've come to the conclusion that it'd be more beneficial if they replaced all of that with computers with Overwatch installed on them and made them play tank cause its basically the same thing but with actual people, right down to how the other 4 people on your team behave like children as well.

    You have DPS and supports that pre fight and lock awful backline comps which is children misbehaving, so you take action (passive aggressively tell them to stop dying and swap.) You have them out of VC which is kind of like children not listening to you. This will completely harden your patience and communication skills. I think if you can properly comm to DPS and support players and carry them you can be a good parent for a child.

  • I unfortunately lack artistic skills to depict this, but I think Dispatch has really good collab potential

    Mecha Man Reinhardt: The only actual mech in Overwatch doesn't really work for this because D.Va's mech isn't really shaped like Mecha Man.

    Blonde Blazer Domina: The arms and the fact she has a gun are obviously a bit bothersome but I think her silhouette fits Blonde Blazer perfectly. Her jacket that she wears on her shoulders can easily become Blazer's cape and her beam and abilities could be changed in 1st person so they resemble the energy that Blazer shoots out of her hands. As a second choice I think Brigitte would work, although she doesnt fly. Maybe Juno but she's a bit too small imo.

    For Shroud I guess Ramattra could work too, but Reaper fits him way better.

    Prism, other than Sojourn also fits Symmetra, and her deployables would be Prism's illusions. Sierra would be my 1. candidate if not for the fact that her hair is essential to her silhouette.

    Others are pretty obvious.

    Edit: I forgot to add one slide: Malevola Vendetta

  • Captain, by me
  • They Should Make This Base Kit

    I feel like this would be a nice change for Torbjorn, similar to how Reaper’s Dire Trigger became base kit and Pharah Minor perk became base kit. This wouldn’t be as much of a buff as more of “feel good” change if anything.

  • Recently hit masters the first time, and am I crazy or do low masters players often play like they’re scared of losing their rank?

    I’m a flex dps main, mostly anran recently but I also play some tracer and reaper, and I’m finding a lot of my games are either I die a lot or barely at all simply from the fact that it feels like some masters players are allergic to actually playing with their flankers. I know matchmaking is still wack right now from the rank reset but lowkey I was getting some more coordinated better quality games in diamond, and heck maybe I’m crazy but I don’t find the game that hard at this level despite it being my first time here, like main problems are:

    1. Enemy dps can sometimes actually aim, crazy

    2. Anran is VERY weak against CC right now imo

    And 3. I still have supports who healbot the tank in the games where I die a lot, like sometimes I’m standing blatant view of my healers for several seconds like a lost puppy in the rain, and hey, I don’t even need to be that much healed if they just follow up on my plays with me, like one or the other would be great

    Idk partially a rant it just bothers me that sometimes I feel incentivized to only group up with people instead of solo queuing to even have a chance at consistency right now, because i definitely feel like people should know how to press the forward key in MASTERS of all ranks.

    Anyway I’m on a winning trend right now and will probably hit high masters or low gm soon if I keep playing like I have been and hopefully it’ll be a little better once I am.

    *anyway, I think my biggest point here is this: I think too many people take “play your life” to an absolute extreme, you aren’t going to win games if you don’t take risks and capitalize on weaknesses, because I guarantee you your enemies aren’t going to be twiddling their thumbs every game while you are twiddling yours. It’s absolutely ok and SMART to capitalize on pressure and sometimes even take it as far as the enemy spawn doors. There is an ebb and flow and rhythm to this game that you won’t get if all you do is “take the optimal position” (which usually isn’t optimal if you’re ALONE AND AWAY FROM BACKUP AND CANT WIN ONE V ONES CONFIDENTLY, I’m talking to you Ana and zen mains, but a little bit of everyone).*

    Also another tip for people still stuck in lower ranks than me, especially if you play in chat, don’t try to count down to engages or say *do you want my ult now do you want my ult now?* you have the mental capacity to get into your teammates heads and know what they’re about to do, and those few precious seconds could mean a lost fight.

    Overwatch isn’t strategy, like chess, it has elements of it but, overwatch is predominantly *tactics.* you may win a few games if you constantly counterswap and use *optimal* positioning and *proven* ult combos, but you won’t climb until you understand that you are playing with and against people, and those people will lose if you beat them in the mental game. Holding them at their spawn doors, killing them everytime they’re even a centimeter out of position, capitalization on every used cooldown, winning engages against a flanker, and also lifting up your teammates, body block your low teammate if they’re getting dove and you’re still full hp, even if you aren’t a tank, peel for them, praise them for doing well, play with them instead of making them fight alone. I don’t think enough people talk about this.

    Anyway tl;dr: low masters players, please don’t play like you’re playing ultra hardcore Minecraft and use your brain, I know you have one and I know it’s capable of brilliance.

    YOU ARE CAPABLE

    YOU ARE CONFIDENT

    YOU’VE GOT THIS!
