Overwatch 2ish

[Ruien]

Easy enough to balance Mercy too. Just don't reset the res timer when her ult is popped.

[Ruien]

2867. So close but so far away.

[Heisenberg]

I bought this game last year and didnt really get into it and now i'm super into it. LOL. And no one here seems to play much anymore.



Hell, if you have it on PC I'll try and find some time to return. It's really hard to play it when you don't have the right ppl. Fignuts is always a lock for me not b/c of TPWW, but b/c he listens. If the group doesn't play well then the game becomes a nightmare. You can only go so far by yourself.

[Ruien]

I played once with Heisenberg when I was a straight newbie and he never invited me back :(

I just play Hanzo and a tad of Rinehardt. I guess i could play Soldier too.

[Fignuts]

Love that all the people claiming blizzard are "cucks" and "sjws" for banning toxic players from voice chat, would likely never have the balls to say anything toxic to someone's face.

It's hilarious.

[Kalyx triaD]

Really? I follow many of the louder/popular voices of anti-SJW circles and I really haven't seen this decision reacted to from a social political perspective. The toxicity in Overwatch didn't seem to be bigoted in nature so I'm not sure why anybody would consider the Ban Hammer wave an sjw/cuck thing.

[Kalyx triaD]

Btw I'm 70% fine with the bannings with the 30% of me wondering if banned people get their money back now that they're blocked from an online only game, and how exactly does the investigative process post-reporting works.

[Fignuts]

Their banned from voice chat, not from playing.

[Kalyx triaD]

wtf that ain't shit.

[Ruien]

I read it as they are banned from competitive games. They can still do quick play and the arcade.

[Kalyx triaD]

Don't see what the fuss is about then.

[Ruien]

I find it hilarious when people flip out. It makes losing so much more enjoyable.

[Kalyx triaD]

Once ever did I ever deal with a toxic player. Been in rooms with plenty of angry guys when we're losing and heard or been a part of 'spirited debates' but I can't say I ran into over the top raging, toxic guys. And up until a few weeks ago I was on Overwatch pretty heavy. I imagine it's because I swim in Silver/Low Gold waters most the time and at higher levels people lose their shit more often.

[Ruien]

I literally learned about team chat 3 days ago. Had some dude go completely off. We were/Did lose a 5v6 after taking both points in a 6v6. Maaan, he was so angry I didn't even mind losing the 5v6.

[RP]

lol

ya a dude just flipped out on me because i wouldnt switch off Hanzo for a healer. Said he was throwing the game. Then halfway through i switched to Widowmaker

[Fignuts]

People who throw are bitch ass cucks.

[Drakul]

The toxicity in Overwatch didn't seem to be bigoted in nature so I'm not sure why anybody would consider the Ban Hammer wave an sjw/cuck thing.

Because any time angry little boys are called out for being angry little boys, whoever called them out is an "SJW" or "cuck".

[Kalyx triaD]

Odd. Then again we're talking kids here. I mute children at a moment's notice.

[Ruien]

Fell to 2610. Back at 2805 now. I am loving this game now.

[RP]

I'm still not able to do ranked games. 4 levels to go.

[alvarado52]

[Kalyx triaD]

Mercy nerfed already.

[Ruien]

Fuck. Hit 2991 and then lost. 2966 now. Fuck. So close.

[Ruien]

Fuck. Hit 2990 again and won the firs5 match of king of the hill. Lost the next 2 rounds and the game after that. Fuck.

[Ruien]

My Mercy/Mei duo office hit platinum. Fuck ya. 3019.

[Ruien]

Error. I mean hit diamond.

[Ruien]

Will say once you hit 2800 everyone seems to get what is going on. It's way more fun when everyone is on the same page. Kind of want to keep going but I like the shiny symbol. Doubt I can hit whatever the next rank is.

[RP]

ok basically maining Soldier 76 now. Way better as him. I'm almost 25. Still cant get my mic to work.. its not the mic.. i think its the settings.

[Ruien]

Wish I could kill some shit with you RP. But I don't want to buy the game again to play on pc.

[Ruien]

For some reason I ended up in a 3500+ game once randomly. Think it was a glitch. Peo0le flipped their shit that I was on their team. We got our ass kicked and they blamed the entire time. Play of the game came and it was me as Mercy and group chat went 100% silent.

[Fignuts]

Some of the Halloween skins leaked, and they look sicccccc

[alvarado52]

thats Chtulu one is fiiiiiiaaaaa

[RP]

getting 25 tonight so i'll be playing ranked games..

had 17 kill streak and 35 eliminations in the last game i played with Soldier.

[Ruien]

Soldier seems like a must know how to play so it's good you are learning him. You should know at least 1 support or tank just so you have the ability to help round out the team if need be.

[RP]

I suck at everything else. I know Hanzo, but i'm not great with him at all. I'm not sure who i'll try to learn next. But i'm crushing with Soldier.

[Ruien]

Mercy is by far the easiest support. I suck at main tanking but been trying Orisa and she seems okay.

Pick Hanzo and people will rage at you. Which is hilarious.

You can do the unique thing like me and learn Mei who is an off tank (fuck anyone who disagrees). She is super fun to play and makes it really easy to get a pick for your team when you learn how to use the wall. Roadhog is probably the easiest tank (he's an off tank) to play though imo.

[Ruien]

Can't wait for Halloween time. So many awesome skins from last year and they are adding in some pretty amazing skins this year.

Hope there is some new event too. LOVED Lucio Ball.

[RP]

What a 6 stack?

[Ruien]

Premade group.

[RP]

So far i'm 1 and 1 on my first two placement matches. Gonna try to knock a few out later. Might practice training as someone else. Thinking about Symmetra.

[#BROKEN Hasney]

Halloween update is live. Didn't know it was today, so went to play while watching the live Bombcast as I usually do on a Tuesday.

Guess not.

Love the 80's horror flick Zarya, cthulhu Zen and Mei.

[Ruien]

That will be my new Mei skin. Symm skin is awesome too.

[RP]

LOL Dafuq????

[RP]

I just got repeatedly mauled by a Winston as Soldier.

[Kalyx triaD]

If it was constant it isn't you, the team is letting you down. Collective wins, collective losses.

[#BROKEN Hasney]

Best thing to do with a good rampant Winston is to mostly stick together. Healing buffs+collective damage will take him down. Straggler attack focused characters are meat for any good Winston or Hog.

[RP]

It was a Winston/Phara combo that was just wrecking my shit the entire game. Anyhow, i'm ranked 1951 to start out. Just finished my 10th placement game. Not that great.

[Ruien]

Nice. That's right at gold.

[RP]

There is this chick on Twitch that plays Overwatch, named Alinity. Possibly the hottest chick i've ever laid eyes on. No joke.Not even making this up or being fake. She's fucking unreal hot.

[Kalyx triaD]

Is she cute?

[RP]

she's a 10

[RP]

She does a lot of Just Dance videos too

[RP]

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/J5AZxogF2aI" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

She went live on Twitch doing one of these Just Dance games. I literally watched for 3 hours without even realizing it. I was lost in her twitch.

[Ruien]

She will be getting gang banged by 3 black dudes in 2 years top.

[RP]

one can only hope

[Ruien]

The new pve mode game is hard as hell on legendary. Doubt I will beat it. Found it surprising only like .18% or some shit had the achievement for Expert when I got it earlier today. It took me like 5 tries but it seriously isn't that hard for almost no one to have it.

[Kalyx triaD]

Oh she's one of those twitch chicks.

Yeah the PvE tosses some bullshit at you. My only real issue is the characters available to us makes for an arbitrarily hard composition to use.

[Shadow]

Well they did give us Tor this year. Perhaps next year an actual tank will make it into the mix. I nominate Orissa.

[Ruien]

Oh she's one of those twitch chicks.

Yeah the PvE tosses some bullshit at you. My only real issue is the characters available to us makes for an arbitrarily hard composition to use.

Ya. I was planning Ana usually and it was hard to heal McCrea and Soldier at times. Hanzo is easy enough.

[RP]

After i'm done messing with this PVE, I think i'm going to try to play Pharah. I've lost like 12 straight games. I'm starting to think it's me.

[Ruien]

I gave up trying to beat the legendary status for pve.

[Ruien]

Granted I tried to like twice but I am only good enough with Soldier. Can't really round out the team correctly. My Ana barely made it in Expert.

[RP]

5 wins 18 losses

No way this is all me being bad. I'm not that terrible. I'm getting terrible groups. This is brutal.

[Ruien]

Being in the low ratings is brutal. You need to be able to carry games if you want to advance. That is why I played Mei for like 40 hours straight which brought me from silver to platinum in 1 competitive season.

[RP]

playing pharah and actually having fun despite not being great. I might just play RH.

[RP]

what about Mei that helped you rank up from the lower ranks?

[Kalyx triaD]

What helps you rank up is being with a good team. Not attitude, not even so much playing your main. I've had the best games I ever had last season while also having losing streaks like you wouldn't believe.

You need a good team, you can't lone wolf this game. A good team acknowledges each other's characters. Even without a mic they know when to help focus fire, heal or be healed, ult, all of that. If a team's not doing that it won't matter who you pick or what korean comp you're emulating. Gotta have at least half the team on the same page, otherwise it's hell.

[Ruien]

what about Mei that helped you rank up from the lower ranks?

I was able to carry the team more times than not with Mei. I just became so good (by practicing in quick play) that my skill level was way above those in silver.

MY is right to a point as you don't want to stagger in and such after being killed. But you can't rely on your teams to get the W. Especially when you are at a low tank. You need to be the boss.

Mei, IMO, is the most versatile hero in the game besides orb healing guy. She can off tank, long range dps after you get good enough with her weapon, can easily backdoor freeze/1 shot the healer/sniper, and the wall makes it SUPER easy to get picks. Meis big downfalls is not doing a lot of damage so shield hero's may be a problem. Not really an issue though in silver since everyone typically sucks.

[Fignuts]

Yeah, I would say that at gold and silver, it's entirely possible to carry a team if you're good enough. Not against a good, well coordinated team, but those are few in number at that level anyhow.

[RP]

I broke the streak! And then i almost won 2 in a row, but lost. My rating is like 1222. LOL so bad.

[Ruien]

Holy shit you are terrible.

[Ruien]

I will say when I was in gold hell and either team had someone level 25 through 50 that team typically lost.

[RP]

I've won 2 in a row. I'm at 1237. I'm pro

[RP]

This shit is impossible. Win 4 in a row. Lose 3 in a row. I have no clue how anyone gets out of this shit hole bottom.

[RP]

wtf! I won a match and only got 2 points.

[RP]

i've had no luck with legendary's on the loot boxes


I've had no luck with skins in loot boxes. The only Halloween skin i've gotten is Soldier 76 and I bought it.

[Ruien]

wtf! I won a match and only got 2 points.

:rofl:

[Ruien]

This shit is impossible. Win 4 in a row. Lose 3 in a row. I have no clue how anyone gets out of this shit hole bottom.

I already told you what to do.

[Kalyx triaD]

I got 80s Zarya and that's all I needed from the event. And I got zombie Pharah with coins. I reduce the stress of lame loot boxes by stacking two or three and opening them at once. Sure to get something worth a damn.

[Fignuts]

Just played with a group of squeakers and we fucking dominated.

Don't judge books, people.

[Kalyx triaD]

Mute them and it's all good.

[Fignuts]

Actually, they communicated really well.

[Ruien]

What is a squeaker?

Debating if I want to try for the next rank above diamond this season. Seems like it will be a lot of work.

[Fignuts]

[Fignuts]

Those skins....

[RP]

anyone start there season 7 grind?

About to grind 10 placement matches.


Also, what skins? Did they unveil new skins?

[Ruien]

I decided against the grind of the new season. Last one took way to much effort. Debating if I want to start playing Wow again. Also want to play Mario and Destiny 2.

[Fignuts]

New skins are based on other Blizzard games.

https://www.gamespot.com/articles/blizzcon-2017-all-the-new-overwatch-skins-based-on/1100-6454659/

Need that Ghost Widow Maker.

[RP]

Highest i got last season was 1937. Ended at 1127. I cant let that be the end.

[Kalyx triaD]

Been doing well this season in terms of individual performance. Running Dva mostly this season but like last season with Zarya I'm having great plays but no payoff as a team. And I'm very often being asked to change during set-up despite a) picking first (frankly the last few to choose should consider the first three choices, not the other way around) and b) I end up doing well anyway.

In a case where nobody locks down a character after a few seconds the first two characters to pop up, in my opinion, dictates the composition. Call it 'Deference to Conviction'. If I see an Orisa and then a Torb, I have a pretty good idea how I should add to that. I'm not gonna criticize those first two or three picks while being an indecisive pussy waiting for people to pick to I can 'commentate'.

Still I've had some good wins with teams. It's just the losses were so avoidable. And I don't wanna revert back to how I was in my Halo and Battlefield days cause it's just weird to me telling people what to do now.

[RP]

welp one game in and i'm no longer feeling it. lol

[Fignuts]

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/pa0fyjxYDS0" frameborder="0" gesture="media" allowfullscreen></iframe>

[Fignuts]

Also yeah, I'll get on a nice winning streak and one loss will erase all my progress. Fucking sucks.

[RP]

1-1 after 2 matches and i got a Ana Wasteland legendary skin.

[RP]

Gunna peep this World Cup Final. South Korea owning.

[RP]

Actually not sure if it'sa final

[RP]

Fignuts how you turn your highlights so others can see them. I cant figure it out on PC.

[RP]

Canada is getting owned, but this dude on Canada is playing a beast Torb

Name is Mangachu

[RP]

Canada not dead yet.

[RP]

South Korea wins the World Cup again.

You can actually see where I remind myself that she's still up there and needs to be dealt with.

[RP]

I'm 2 and 1. Played the 3rd match with Reinhardt because people asked me to switch and I proceeded to dominate.

[RP]

I have a great highlight but dont know how to link it.

[Kalyx triaD]

Which console you on?

[RP]

PC

[Fignuts]

My clip was from xbox and I just started gaming on pc, so I have no idea.

I do know that when I'm playing pc games with my wired xbox controller and press the big xbox button, it brings up a recording menu.

So whatever the equivalent of that button is on keyboard and mouse. Check your key settings in the options.

[RP]

I cant figure out comms on this game or how to link a highlight video. Weird.

[Kalyx triaD]

What exact platform are you on? The capture process depends on that as Figgy says.

[RP]

Laptop? PC? computer? CPU?

[Fignuts]

Honestly, you should PM Hasney. He's a lot more experienced with this stuff.

Also, I think Kalyx is asking what app platform you are playing on i.e. steam, origin, u-play etc.

If it's Overwatch open up the Blizzard App. Probably an option for downloading and uploading clips somewhere in there.

I bought the game physically???????

[Fignuts]

I thought you'd have to download the blizzard app either way during install. Isn't that how you create your username which is seen in game?

[RP]

so ya.. i have that too.

[RP]

I got list of games and friend list.

[Fignuts]

Blizzards whole multiplayer service is called battle.net

Try checking there too.

[RP]

I have it up

[RP]

I'm not finding nothing.

[Kalyx triaD]

YouTube it. Surely there's a quick tutorial.

[RP]

Kalyx just threw me aside like a vietnam whore.

[Kalyx triaD]

Nigga if you were on Xbox I'd have three different ways you can upload. White nigga damn.

[RP]

Very racist. You're the Harvey Weinstein of racism right now.

[Kalyx triaD]

I'm deciding to live as a gay man.

[Fignuts]

RP, I would help you some more with this, but Kevin Spacey is here and I'm going to have to fight off his advances.

[RP]

Kevin spacey wtf. Seriously. Always raping red headed young gingers like Fignuts.

[#BROKEN Hasney]

There's a button under highlight that just says Save. Click that and pick your quality options (can render better than your PC can even handle in Realtime, like I super sample 4x the resolution of 4k) then it tells you where it saved it.

Just upload that file to YouTube.

[RP]

my first upload

That is literally the common sense approach to Soldier.

[RP]

That is literally the common sense approach to Soldier.

Ya i've learned a lot.

1) dont try to be the hero. Stay in back and dps
2) get high up wlhen you need to
3) dont blow my special on nothing ( in that video i was just waiting for them to make a massive push. I never even died in that round
4) always kill the Phara ( lol )

[Kalyx triaD]

And drop some beer for your team. He can sprint to big healthpacks or between small packs for himself.

[Kalyx triaD]

What happens you're caught between a Rein charge and a friendly Orisa standing her ground?

[RP]

3 and 4 now. Last match wasnt total retard. Someone Dc'ed ( which is so lame, dont get me started ).

[RP]

I might just start playing Reaper to grind. I'm a decent Soldier, but there are better and I think I should move aside.

[Ruien]

Just learn to heal.

[alvarado52]

So Moira is live on consoles. Amazing character...she won't get a lot of kills on her own, but using those orbs in battles rack up the assist kills, and her "dash" move recharges quick enough to pop in and out of battle. A lot like Orisa in the sense that there's a lot of moves/cool downs to pay attention to, but if you can manage the timing correctly, they can put odds in your favor.

[Kalyx triaD]

She's fucking cool.

[RP]

I have not tried her

[RP]

I just played Moira against AI on easy.. first thought is she's OP as fuck.. but it was easy

[RP]

Is she not playable in season yet?

[Fignuts]

They typically disable new characters in comp until players get a handle on them.

Otherwise you get people being toxic everytime the new character is picked, because they don't trust anyone to be good enough with them so soon. And they're often correct.

she is really OP. I went through medium level AI and was kill streaking at 10 and healing with no problem.

[Ruien]

What is your rating now RP?

[Fignuts]

[RP]

no comment

:shifty:

[Ruien]

I kind of want to buy it on pc just to play with you and tear people up.

[RP]

Do it. I'm trying to get out of bronze. Think i'm just gonna play Reignhart

[RP]

It's probably 50% off btw.

[RP]

https://us.shop.battle.net/en-us/product/overwatch

[RP]

My season rank is 931 now. It's been bad. I'm about to take a few days off and just practice against AI's with another hero.

[Fignuts]

That might not be a great idea. Get used to fighting A.I., you could fall into a playstyle that is disasterous against real players. Same reason people don't practice against A.I. in fighting games.

[Fignuts]

I would advise playing quickplay instead. No stakes, but you can still practice against actual people.

[RP]

I'm not terrible with Reaper. Been dabbling. I get the hero mechanics. I might try him some. I just had 24 kills in a match, but my team still lost badly.

[Ruien]

I would advise playing quickplay instead. No stakes, but you can still practice against actual people.

This 100%. Just play 1 character over and ove4 until you are a beast with that character.

[Kalyx triaD]

The two things I will give to AI practice is you can learn how to manage cooldowns and learn burst damage approaches with certain characters.

Certain Defense and Support heroes can only be learned against real players, tho. Since they require a sense of 'reading' enemies and teammates alike. Healers are especially a big responsibility that requires lots of overseeing.

[Ruien]

Depending how much I spend tomorrow RP I will buy this on pc to play with you. We will wreck shit all day.

[RP]

Fuck this game!. I really believe the best players team up from day one to get out of Bronze and Gold. They have to. There is no way a great player plays single player up through the ranks. It's not fucking possible. I mean, I watched so many videos i've taken so many tips. There are motherfucking players in the Bronze rank that are motherfucking mindless. They dont give fuck. They move foward, press attack and that is that. It is insane. I'm sitting here trying to bring a team together, but these fucking assholes dont give a shit. So ya. Those top players... well they are top players cause they had a crew to level up with from the get go. Not one of those assholes tried to level up from the start, by themselves. I gurantee that. I'd love to see those guys do that though. I would be impressed if they could. Down here in Bronze, is a fucking dumpster fire.

[Destor]

Get good, son

[Ruien]

Ya, I can't imagine 95% of the people in bronze care.

[Fignuts]

Thought silver was bad. Couldn't imagine bronze.

[Ruien]

Silver is soooo bad. Gold is ehhh bad. Even low platinum has crap players that don't contribute to the team.

Loved Overwatch so much more when I was high plat/low diamond.

[Fignuts]

Yeah I havn't seen much of a skill gap between mid gold and low diamond.

[Ruien]

Nice, you made diamond? Last I heard you were almost at platinum.

Not so much skill level but team cooperation is different.

[Fignuts]

No but I played with a group of players that included a couple low diamonds, and we often played against a couple diamonds. In that time, I saw the same ineptitudes that I do from gold players.

[Ruien]

Ah. Ya. Skill level is basically the same. Usually Hanzo and Widow mains seem to be better. It just seems everyone wants to win the games instead of seeing how many people they can blow up.

[RP]

I'm fucking pulling myself out of Bronze. I'm fucking going to do it.

[Ruien]

I still say play like 10 hours of Mei in quick play and just destroy everyone after that.

[RP]

First game got a win. 28 kills with reaper. 56% kill participation

She is the ultimate threat on into carry any comp. Can be utilized as a tank, short or long range dps, or assassinate the other teams healer from behind.

[RP]

I'm gonna do some practice with her today

[RP]

Here's my stats in all competitive seasons.

Soldier 76 - 65 games played, 33% win percentage
Reinhardt - 8 games played, 49% win percentage
Reaper - 11 games played, 35% win percentage


I'm actually really good with Reinhardt on certain maps or games. But not good enough to play him every map. There are some where i get outright destroyed and have no idea what i'm doing. If i can get on point and protect, i'm super good with him.

[RP]

I have 30% weapon accuracy with Soldier. Thats not good. I feel like i was blocking better Soldiers.

[RP]

2-0 today boyz!!!

[Ruien]

Hell Ya! Keep it up.

[RP]

3-0.. The rally is on

[Ruien]

What character are you using?

[RP]

3-1 now. Using Reaper

[Kalyx triaD]

30% accuracy with an assault weapon is not bad. The few that hit needs to be chest and up. 30% with a slow RoF weapon would be an issue.

[RP]

4-1 today so far. Slowly but surely

[RP]

and then 2 straight games of my team purposley throwing the game. Love this game.

[Fignuts]

Who was mcree expecting to hit from the bottom of the stairs?

[RP]

I think it was Reaper, but still ya.

[RP]

RIP

[RP]

So fucking AIDS this game is at Bronze

[Kalyx triaD]

- You can move during Death Blossom
- It seems nerve wracking but close the gap a bit more before you unload on them as Reaper. Up close he can ghost your ass in three good shots.

[RP]

Some of these chicks that voice Overwatch are hot as fuck. I'm in love with Sombra.

[Kalyx triaD]

Not brown enough.

[RP]

Getting out of Bronze is not possible. It's a serious issue that i have no idea how they can address.

[RP]

I'm playing the best i can and i'm headed to 600 SR now. I cant do anything about terrible players that mindlessly press buttons. I real all this shit about just doing my job and I will rank up, but its bullshit. It's not possible at all.

[Kalyx triaD]

Gotta party up.

[Ruien]

600? Holy shit.

[RP]

I've fought back to 834. 50% win percentage with Reaper, 34 games played.

[RP]

I officially quit this game. Good luck folks

[Fignuts]

lol

Overwatch: The Chronicles of RP was a resounding success, I'd say.

[RP]

Made it back to 877 and then lost 4 games because people are just fucking autistic. It's impossible to get out of bronze by yourself. No doubt. I was up to a 53% win percentage with Reaper and then just lost one after another. Not worth my time. I almost tossed my laptop at the wall a few times. Thats when i know i gotta walk away from the game.

[Fignuts]

My rule is that after 3 consecutive losses, I turn it off.

Learned that the hard way. After getting 40 points away from Platinum, I went on a ten game losing streak despite getting multiple golds in every game, and generally being a beast.

[Ruien]

RP, you really needed to learn Mei really well and carry teams. :(

[Kalyx triaD]

RP went from wide eyed idealistic to grumpy old man ranting about scrubs in like a month.

[Ruien]

I do feel him. I was in ELO hell way back when in Lo L when they first brought out a ranking system. No matter what I did it was impossible to get out of it.

[Ruien]

Decided to do my placement games tonight. 3112 ranking now. WOOOOO.

[Ruien]

Maybe I will do the grind to the next level ranking crap. It's at 3500 right?

[Ruien]

Isn't the next rank called like master or something cool like that? Feels weird but I feel like I can honestly make it to the top 5%. Diamond is like top 15% of players right? Always been above average on whatever game I am playing but never this good with such ease.

[Ruien]

Played 1 more game and lose 44 points. Lol, f that.

[Fignuts]

Went on a 5 game winning streak last night, and then lost 4. Kill me.

[Fignuts]

It's like they see you doing well and then automatically pair you with people who have difficulty operating a toaster.

[Ruien]

Haha ya. I so feel the same way. It's super rare I will go 1 and 1 and 1 and 1. It's all about streaks. Losing like 5 in the row is the worse feeling ever. I get sooooooo damn angry.

[Fignuts]

lol 70% kill participation with D-Va.

We lost.

[Fignuts]

God damn, playing rocket League makes me not even want to bother with this, because I just have so much more fun.

Was 2-1 in overwatch, when I saw Heisenberg playing Rocket League, so I joined him instead. We proceeded to Braun Fucking Strowman the competition all night, going something like 10-2. Couple times we tied it with seconds left and went on to win. Felt soooooooooo good.

[Fignuts]

Ya'll need to seriously jump on that game if you haven't, because some of the most fun gaming I've had the last few years has been playing rocket league with Heisenberg and his friends. Even playing solo is more fun than most stuff out there.

[Fignuts]

Someone please explain something to me.

Me and Kalyx are playing on Volskaya Industries. The other team takes both points.

We then managed to capture both points ourselves.

First tie breaker round, we're on attack again, and we take both points.

We're on defense, and they only take one point.

It's declared a draw.

WHAT?

We took 2 points, they took one. How, by any definition is that a draw?

[Fignuts]

I am especially pissed because I put in work.

And I mean WOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRK

4 of our team mates were suffering the side effects of their apparently recent lobotomies, and Kalyx was on healing duty, so it was up to me to lay down the damage, and boyyyyy fucking howdy did I ever.

44 kills just from the attack and overtime (I was heals on D) multiple play of the game worthy multi kills, 6 environmental kills 2 of which were Ult shutdowns, and 4 god damn gold medals.

Christ this fucking game.

[Fignuts]

I normally don't mind a draw or even a loss, when it's a really close game like that, but WE FUCKING WON THAT GAME.

[Fignuts]

Actually, I should be honest. I do mind a draw or a loss in a close game when it's clearly me and another person carrying the short bus candidates through an entire match.

[Ruien]

Whow..... That really sucks.

One time I was on attack on Hollywood and the entire team ended up leaving before it was done. So we brought it to the point and then the game was considered a draw. Made no sense.

[Kalyx triaD]

My thing is, if it's gonna be a draw even they fail...

Why the fuck did we even have the game? Could have been a draw on our last win. UNLESS: The game would have dealt us a loss if we didn't stop them.

[Ruien]

Do you guys play often? I would like to jump in if possible.

[Kalyx triaD]

Nothing regular but a few late nights a week.

[Fignuts]

We're on xbox though, not PC.

Though I also have it on ps4.

[Ruien]

I use XBox. RP is the pc user.

When I was a newbie I actually played a few games with you Figgy when I was with Heisenberg. I was super concentrating though because I was terrible so I barely said anything.

[Fignuts]

Oh well GT is Fignuts82.

Heisenberg and them still occasionally play, but not nearly as much as before.

Doubt you'll be able to do comp with any of us, as you're SR is likely much higher. I'm hovering around 2300 at the moment, and I'm higher than anyone else.

[Kalyx triaD]

Been in 1890-1950 hell for one. Month.

[Fignuts]

Kalyx is one win away from gold. Will probably put him at 1999, and then he'll go on a 5 game losing streak lol

[Ruien]

Haha that is how Overwatch rolls.

[Kalyx triaD]

I have absolutely no confidence in strangers. Major trust issues, especially if somebody was forced to go support or tank. If you have to tell them; just pick it yourself. Filling a role and 'playing a role' are two different things.

[Kalyx triaD]

You're in a fox hole and you gotta reload, who do you want watching your back; the guy who enlisted cause his father was a soldier and loves the flag and has a Steve Rogers tattoo, or the guy who needed to pay some loans so like, whatevs bro.

[Fignuts]

Me and Kalyx are on right now if you want to jump in

[Fignuts]

lol lost like 200 SR today.

Think I'm just going to one trick Mercy on PS4, since I'm very good at keeping my team alive, and leave the xbox as a practice game, when friends are on.

I've been playing fill in, and doing my job, but I'm just not climbing that way.

[Fignuts]

Need to find girls to play with.

Every time there is a girl on the team, we win.

[Fignuts]

On a lighter note, on Illios a roadhog got a hook on my pharah at the start of one game, and tea bagged me, so I twatted him into the big giant hole 4 times, including right after he activated his ult.

So that was therapeutic

[Fignuts]

So I'm into Videogame art books, and have collected quite a few, but holy shit, the new Overwatch art book might be my favorite ever.

First off, at 367 pages, it's fucking huge. Like Mega Man Complete, my previous favorite, it has commentary on almost every page, on the design process, and the evolution of the characters, stages, and other game elements.

They have entire sections dedicated to the heroes, stages, skins, sprays, icons, and even all the animated shorts. And a literal FUCKTON of art through out.

If you have any interest in the art behind the game or the story behind the scenes, then pick it up. It's 50 bucks which seems steep, but once you see the sheer amount of content and the quality of it, it feels like a steal.

[Fignuts]

Moira's death ball auto targets sym turrets now.

So Symmetra just got way less effective.

[Kalyx triaD]

I'd be fine with only 4 turrents max if they got a health buff. 20hp each.

[alvarado52]

Moira's death ball auto targets sym turrets now.

So Symmetra just got way less effective.

Oh hell yes....other than Winston, there was really no safe way to take those out from certain angles.

[Ruien]

So I been doing quick play now just to mess around. It seems I am facing diamond players or masters in every match. Does my ranking effect who I am paired against in quick play?

[#BROKEN Hasney]

So I been doing quick play now just to mess around. It seems I am facing diamond players or masters in every match. Does my ranking effect who I am paired against in quick play?

No, but your overall matchmaking level will.

[Ruien]

Started playing Hanzo. Love this dude. I am not that good atm. Hit about 15 to 20% usually right now.

[Ruien]

Getting better with Hanzo. Not good enough to play ranked unless I go back down to gold which I kind of want to do now. Want to play serious games with him now but would feel bad making h8gher ranked people to lose due to my badness.

[Fignuts]

I do well with Widow in quick play, but I don't want to deal with the instant toxicity you get, as soon as you pick a sniper in comp.

[Kalyx triaD]

STOP THROWING

[Ruien]

Doing okay in off season ranked matches. I have some really good and bad games as Hanzo. Really no medium.

[Ruien]

Going to do 1 placement game with Hanzo. Will prpbably lose so bad I will be sent to silver.

[Ruien]

Was with a 3 man group. I had gold damage and then was asked to switched. They asked nicely so I went Mei. Then they talk about how good one of their people is because he has gold damage. Fuxk that.

Hanzo ftw!

[Fignuts]

Up 110 SR tonight. Was fucking killing it, no matter what role I was playing. Me and Alvy were practically carrying some of these teams to victory.

Going to aim small, and try and increase my SR by 50 per night. Once I get there, shut the game off, leave it for the next day. Lose 3 in a row, shut it off for the next day.

See how far I can climb using that method.
