  • Are there any perks that you think should be implemented into a character’s base kit instead?

    Do you feel that there are some perks that are taking up an unnecessary slot and that you can justify making them into a character’s base kit?

    And if so, what type of perk would you want to have instead?

  • Do i absolutely have to learn more than one hero?

    I have always been told to learn more than one hero, especially on tank. But is it really necessary if I don't have a problem playing into my counters?

    I have recently begun playing tank again (basically only sigma) and i have always been told to have another tank, i can fall back to if i get countered too hard. But I don't really have an issue playing into counters at all. It's definitely harder but I never feel bad against them. Now I'm only gold 1, so I don't know if this will change as I climb.

    So if anyone could tell me, do counters get harder to play against as you climb? And if i had to learn a new hero who should it be? I don't wanna spend time learning a hero if they are just as bad against sigma's counters.

  • I missed a chance to see OWL when it was live, and I'm sad. Nothing will replace the timing of that opportunity, but I'm still curious if there's a "next best option."

    OWL was my first experience with E-sports. I knew people were doing StarCraft tournaments when I was in college, and I saw clips from time to time of competitive COD, but could barely have named any professional e-sports orgs... maybe FAZE clan. I streamed some TF2 matches and learned a few org names that way, but never enough to remember more than a really talented name or two.

    I was really into Overwatch when OWL came out. I picked a favorite team based on locality (SF Shock), and a second favorite based on colors/Logo (London Spitfire). I watched streamed matches, knew players names, knew the announcers and everything. I still remember how mad I was when they added OP Brig in the middle of the season and it shut down Tracer, and my favorite players were all Tracer mains.

    And right at the height of it, I was in LA, and there was a match in Burbank. I knew my wife would not want to go, and I'm kind of a go-with-the-flow kind of person, so I brought it up once, acting like it was a joke, and when she said no, I let it go. Only after I missed it did I realize how much I really wanted to see a match live, and so I decided that the next time I was in the area during a match, I would just go without my wife and see if I could arrange a spa day for her or something.

    Then of course the league shuttered. I missed my chance!

    I've never gotten into any of the other leagues; I would occasionally watch Contenders, especially around the time the Hangzhou Spark were making a splash (I don't remember clearly, but I think they made so much noise in Contenders before joining OWL that I might have watched before, or else I started watching shortly after when I realized how strong those teams were that one could be directly promoted into OWL.) But it was never really about the skill-- I mean I want to say "holy cow how did he do that" once in awhile, but I also cared about the branding-- cheering for the local team, learning who the kindhearted players were, learning which orgs sucked and could be viewed as the heels, and so on.

    So anyway. It doesn't necessarily have to be Overwatch, but I'm curious if there's an e-sport for OW or any other game that comes close to what OWL had, that I could start to get interested in and, if I enjoy it enough, watch live.

    To put it another way, do you have a recommendation for an e-sport league/group/competition that has:

    -A game with an active online community with some form of SBMM so that I could join and not get rolled all day every day (I'm not that good, barely made plat by the end of OW1 and never got past plat in OW2). It's okay if it's toxic, but even better if it's not.

    -A professional league with memorable personalities doing the casting, player interviews, highlights, etc

    -Teams that have physical location (I enjoy cheering for the home team, rooting against Wisconsin teams if I have a chance, and so on) or at the very least a tangible team personality or something else bringing them together besides a contract telling them who is paying them.

    -A season with regular matches and a championship tournament, not just annual or sporadic individual tournaments and prizes

    -Matches that are occasionally played in a physical studio so that I could have a chance to watch.

    I mean, my ideal would be that there's a really good Overwatch e-sport league where a lot of the OWL talent migrated to, but I'm open to other options.

  • I got bored and drew this don't @ me
  • How to overcome extreme anxiety the second I hit Masters ?

    Basically what the title is, i’ve been playing comp seriously for about 2 seasons including this one, ive hit masters on Tank and support so far and im working on dps currently. (this is console if that’s important)

    All my climb through plat, diamond etc was smooth sailing, at one point i was on a 18 game win streak; but the second I hit masters I feel like I shouldn’t be here, panic, and get so anxious I end up playing worse.

    What on earth am I supposed to do ? Any tips would be greatly appreciated :3

  • Free VOD’s Diamond and below

    Hey everyone, I’m a new coach looking to get some more experience who is also in the midst of teaching a friend of mine how to coach. I will give organized video reviews on YouTube for any role. Check out my channel Arvieturance if you’d like to see the VOD format I do. I main soldier so I would love to have some soldier VOD’s but anything that can be sent my way will be much appreciated. Since I am working with another coach in training any Tank VOD’s might be slightly delayed but we will get as many high quality VOD’s done as possible and most of them will be out within 2 weeks. sending in anything will help me just as much as it helps you. Take care y’all

  • How do win with a bad tank on DPS?

    I mean just generally when your tank is objectively playing poorly and keeps being the first to die, how do you win?

    As a DPS, what should you focus on doing to compensate? What characters should I switch to? How does having a bad tank affect the chances of winning for my team?

    I stopped playing this game ages ago because of this, and after returning for a bit, this is still the one issue I feel like I cannot get over. I can admit when I play poorly, but when I win or lose games based on how my tank performs, it means I feel I have zero control over whether I win or lose and it comes down to luck.

    I need help winning games where my tank is basically a lost cause. I feel like it becomes infinitely harder to get value once my tank is dead, as I can’t do any meaningful damage to the enemy tank, the enemy DPS get so much space to work with, and the enemy supports get peel. I mainly play Tracer, but even when I switch to tank busters I can’t seem to help my tank win fights. What do I do?

  • Got knocked back to bronze and looking for things to work on

    I've been working on a few things like my positioning and timing, but I'm still struggling to maintain silver at the moment. Here's two games that got me knocked down to bronze again and I'd appreciate if someone could look at them and tell me what are some things I should be working on to improve.

    Suravasa - RBXGHD - Loss (Soldier 76)

    Blizzard World - F247J9 - Loss (Soldier 76/Bastion)

    Tag: TCG

    Platform: PC

    Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

  • Is Lifeweaver good now?

    I absolutely adore Lifeweaver and his kit but he's long had a bad reputation for not being very useful or impactful. Recently I've been seeing him a lot more so I've decided to try him again as my crutch pick of Moira is very much looked down on for being no skill.

    So I guess I wanna know where Lifeweaver sits in the Ana to Moira scale of skill nowadays? And is he a respectable pick? I've sat in Plat for the last few seasons and just hit Diamond 5 again so I would specifically want to know also how he performs in Diamond. Dunno if I'll be able to progress further into Diamond but I can dream!

  • Stadium: Junker Q into zarya+kiri+juno

    Title* what am i supposed do against this comp? Every time i come across it it feels like im so hard countered i cant do anything.

    I've tried getting the 100 hp to armor early to help against zar laser, usually aim for infinite shouts+ability power. But even then its so hard to pin down or isolate a support(or the perma aimbot high ground soldiers that seem to exist in 100% of my games) to start getting picks.

    Against this comp specifically i aim for the 'when wounds are cleansed it heals you perk" to mitigate the double suzu barrier cleanse but even that doesn't really do anything but make me stall longer.

    any useful advice or am i just boned on character select everytime this comp comes up?
