  • getting carried in placement matches

    hi folks. just played my first few competitive matches and i'm about halfway through my placements. i'm starting with DPS as it's my worst role by a wide margin and i'm not quite ready to start in comp with the other two.

    in all of my matches so far, my team has been significantly better than the opposing team and we've won without much difficulty. i've been the worst player in the match every time, but my random teammates have carried me to a winning streak.

    i'm worried that this will cause me to end up in a rank that i'm not ready for, and i've heard that it's very difficult to get into a different rank than what you're initially placed in. is there a way i can prevent this from happening in the remainder of my placement matches? i wanted to get an idea of what competitive gameplay is like but now i'm concerned that i'll be way out of my depth.

    appreciate any advice or responses. hope everyone is doing well. :)

  • OWCS Youtube Drops????
  • I got bored and drew this don't @ me
  • Is Briggs a bad support hero??

    I’m a Briggs main just starting ranked (silver) she’s easily my most played hero and I think I do really great at even healing, damages, players saved and I sometimes even do more mitigated dmg than the tanks but I have frequent rounds where my team is saying it’s bad support duo even when we win and I don’t understand why.

  • how long do I have to play before I feel "good" at this game?

    hello, new sub member here, I have about 200hrs in OW playing since 2018 and just went on a catastrophic 15 game loss streak, dropping from plat 4 to silver 3 on support in just a few days.

    (before anyone says it- yes, i know i should be taking breaks and avoiding tilt-queueing, i was trying just that. i was just eager to play and didn't want to take day long breaks between play sessions lmao)

    it feels super demoralizing, to the point where I honestly start to feel really depressed, since I have played this game for so many years and just want to feel validated that I have gotten "decent" in all that time. and being shot down to silver and still losing 80% of my games just makes me feel pure misery, like I might never improve at the game.

    i'm not asking for a vod review at the moment, although if people want to take a look lmk and I can share some replays and my profile. i just want to ask people generally, how long do you think it takes to start to feel "good" at this game, like your hard work is actually paying off? obviously it's different for everyone, but I just wanna see what people have to say in general, since I really have just hit a point of wanting to quit despite loving this game. thanks!

  • Hero ascendancy question

    Hi all,

    Kind of a weird question here, but could someone help me understand how the character ascendancy borders progress past level 60? It says at level 60 that you unlock the gold ascendancy border, but then it becomes gold fading to blue. Is this because the cycle is repeating? If 60 is when it becomes gold/blue, then at 80 it becomes gold/purple, then at 100 it is solid gold. But then what happens past level 100? Is it solid gold until level 120, when it changes to gold/blue, then changes to gold/purple at level 140? Then what happens after that? Sorry if this is confusing, I know that this isn’t actually the most important part of the game, but it is just something that I was curious about out, and if anyone knows anything and could help me out, that would be great!

    Thank you!

  • How to deal with a good Hanzo or Sojourn?

    I play dps in gold lobbies, sometimes there's a Hanzo or Sojourn on the other team that just straight beams me and gets headshot after headshot. It doesn't matter if I play Tracer or any other mobility based character, it seems genuinely impossible to outplay them.

    I still need more characters before I can post so I just wrote this bit.

  • Sometimes you can't win as support..

    Some matches you get flamed as support no matter how hard you try..

    Me (MikeyBatBite) and the other support nearly doubled the healing of opossing team and still get flamed in chat after the game.. sad supps, followed by Juno pls un-install game, learn to play the game and avoid this Juno for free ELO. I got flamed by our Cass btw..

    And I admit I should have higher dmg output, and I usually have at least 2/3 of my healing nrs in dmg. But was almost impossible to land many good torpedoes when there was always at least 1 hitscan uncontested on high ground at all times. I even had to take them out myself sometimes to create some space..

    IDK here is the replay code if anyone is interested: 6926YT open to feedback if I should've played this differently!

    Any other supports have stories where you gave it your all and still get flamed in chat?

  • Help. I don't know how to win these games.

    Just look at these games and tell me what exactly I was supposed to do here. I don't care about any of the other team mates. I couldn't care less actually. Tell me how I can play Juno and carry games, especially ones like these, because these one sided rolls is happening wayy too frequently for this to be remotely fair. These 3 games were back to back btw. How do I either: 1. Position or maneuver better to carry 2. Help my team....to do something I dunno.

    One of them was 3 minutes long.

  • marvel rivals player trying overwatch

    literally started playing overwatch today. i have maybe 15 hours from years and years ago. i play marvel rivals almost everyday. i was wondering:

    1. the core differences on the games
    2. what characters i should try relating to my mains on rivals (hela, phoenix, luna, invis, psylocke,)
    3. who are the inside joke / looked down upon characters ? (squirrel girl, wanda, cloak and dagger, moon knight)

    edit: i also don’t really feed into the “looked down upon” characters. however, i LOVED black widow when i started rivals but received so much hate for it that id rather get the hate for when i know what im doing rather than being new to the game. :)
