  • D.Va's having a very confusing time in Fortnite (by @breikka)
  • Aim is in fact a problem

    So around a month ago, I posted a discussion asking for help on how to climb as a hitscan player. I was stuck in plat 4-2 range for a long time playing mostly sojourn and emre. Some people gave me some advice on what to do and improve on regarding my gameplay, weather it be taking more aggression or using cover just slightly longer.

    I watched a lot of vods and read through multiple posts in this subreddit saying mostly the same thing. The problem is, is that i wasnt making as many mistakes fundamentally wise when i reviewed my gameplay, sure there was some here and there but not enough to keep me down in rank. Then I thought could it genuinly be just my aim not catching up.

    So I went back to my first ever character played that doesn't require as much aim which was reaper. I climbed from plat 4 to masters 4 in around a week and have stayed in masters for a little as ive been busy. But this climb to masters made me realize that theres two important factors in a game. Setting up and executing. I worked so hard on getting into right positions, using cover, tracking abilities, that i neglected the execution part which was hitting my shots. For example its kinda like setting up to shoot a three pointer in basketball with no defenders in sight to block you, but having piss poor accuracy and never making the shot, if that makes sense.

    A lot of the time, most people say work on fundamentals instead of aim, since aim will catch up as you play the game and fundamentals will be there to climb. In some cases like me, it did not catch up as efficiently as I thought and held me back from climbing.

    I do eventually want to play sojourn and emre in masters, but I know my aim will hold me back, So for a while im going to practice aim training than fundamental work, and also play a lot more csgo. Someone mentioned I should play cs a lot and learn its mechanics since it tranfers over, and i have friends who play it a lot so it would be fun to help on my overwatch grind.

    This seems kinda like a nothing post, but I just wanted to say it out loud about each part of a game and how sometimes we forget overwatch is a first person shooter, so aim is a very important part to train, even thought theres other things that will most likely help better. What do you guys think?

  • OWCS Youtube Drops????
  • I got bored and drew this don't @ me
  • I was fighting for my life on the objective wondering why my Juno was not healing 😭

    She has no idea what is going on. 🥀

    The most amazing thing is that we ended up rolling the enemy team so I don't know if she realized she was not doing anything.

  • What does "hs tank" mean?

    So, I used to play Overwatch from like 2016-2019 and stopped when they introduced OW2. Recently I came back to the game and still am unfamiliar with some terms ig (maybe I am also just becoming too old for the gen alpha slang idk lol)

    The game was quite good in my opinion, even though we lost. I played Dominia, 17 eliminations and 5 deaths. I always put my shield down and tried to protect my team as a tank should do yk. But after the match a teammate wrote "hs tank" into our teamchat, so only us 5 could see it.

    Googleing wasn't rly helpful, saying it could meam I literally presented my enemy team my head to shoot at, or that I made good hits. He didn't complain during the match but idk. I still would like to know if he insulted me or not lol. Does anyone know what he meant?

    Thanks in advance :)

    Edit: There were many possible meanings (high schooler, hitscan, headshot, high skill). He probably meant to insult me but since I was satisfied with my gameplay, I will choose to believe he complimented my tank skills :D

  • Captain, by me
  • Average Tank Enthusiast vs the Casual Juno Enjoyer:
  • Fun Fact: In terms of heroes, OW has officially cancelled the OW2 development content drought and will actually be a net positive once hero 52 arrives. Maps on the other hand...

    Was just thinking about OW at 10 years, and i was curious where we wouldve been had development not paused when OW2 was being made

    If you recall OW launched with 21 heroes and was releasing 3 heroes each year until the pause happened in ~2019ish. If none of that had happened and we had gotten 3 heroes every year consistently for 10 years, we would be sitting on exactly 51 heroes right now. Last i checked, Sierra is Hero 51. Hero 52 (or perhaps you prefer to think of hero 53 isntead) will be the first hero thats "ahead" of schedule

    Unfortunately the same cannot be said for maps

    The original game launched with 12 maps and initially started releasing roughly 3 maps a year as well. if that had continued we would be at ~42 maps right now. The game currently sits at 29 standard maps meaning we've only added about 1.7 maps each year (if you count Assault and Clash then its 36 which would be 2.4 maps per year which is better but still not up the early standard). Then again we also have map voting which means we only see maybe a third of them regularly :P

    More maps blizz!

    Also, final tidbit - kinda annoyed that looking through the info means im constantly shown 3 different “histories” of OW. i hate that we’re about to have the third “season 3” in OW history…get it right…its season “58" :P
