You'll continuously watch Mercy wave her hand in the air, and you'll like it.

5 epics and a legendary from my HotS boxes - none duplicates. Not bad!
I can summarize my attitude toward Overwatch on any given day in the following letter:
Dear Blizzard,
Fuck You, and Thank You.

Pharah skin is dope tho. They're doing fancy versions of their normal skins. Cool idea. Bad execution besides Pharah and Bastion tho.

Went on a nice 7-1 yesterday solo-q (in fact the match I lost was the last one, so I quit after that lol), playing mostly Mercy except Lucio for 1 game and Soldier in one attack round. Feels good, got to 32XX. I want to end this season as high as possible so maybe I can reach Master next one.
Legacy I saw your message but left just a couple of minutes after it, if you're there today and wanna play let me know.

With the exception of Zarya, those new skins look garbo to me.
EDIT:
Damn, I missed it! Yeah, I was watching Daredevil with my wife earlier. Good run though, almost like the one we had last weekend. I played one solo q game this morning and won so hopefully it's a sign of good things to come today. I also witnessed the Junkrat on my team get a super-sneaky quintuple-kill on Anubis, it was glorious!

That's cool I'll just keep setting season lows all on my own!

Yeah, it was really nice. Game was pairing me with Masters, a couple of GM and the ocasionally top 500, which I don't get because I'm still in diamond and kinda freaked me out, but had a lot of fun.
I have a question about progaming.
Literally every single team I've seen has been 100% dudes. I know that Gaming still has problems with women and I expect them to be a minority, but I still expect them to be there. But I've watched a few OGN games and have not seen a single female player. Am I just missing them somehow or is there a bigger problem going on here?

Have you heard every single person on both teams on voice comms? If not, you don't know it's 100% guys. There's probably at least one girl in every match you play but they never go on voice chat for obvious reasons.
I hate these types of players as much as people who tilt. If you think you're gonna lose, you're gonna lose.
If there was some godlike girl player I don't think teams would be against her joining. If anything it would provide some word of mouth for the team.
Either on twitch or the top500 in general, who is the highest ranked female player?
I think the person is talking about things such as the apex tournament being streamed now, not general comp matches on overwatch.
Oh woops.
It's never over. Had some pretty amazing comebacks in the past because people didn't give up.
Well, that's what I'm saying. Statistically speaking, there should be a few like that. But I just don't see them on any pro teams. So whats the deal?

Last week I finally got the courage to play, after buying the game during the winter holidays in an altered state of consciousness (and I swear I'm not the first gaffer that does that while on painkillers, just that this time it was not laser discs).
Having bad social / performing anxiety, a traumatic destiny experience and the reported toxicity surrounding the game kept me away from some time, just venturing into the shooting range from time to time. Last sunday I managed to enter AI training and sorta play with other users. And I kinda want more.
The thing is, I'm playing on the EU region, since I don't know anybody else who plays it (my group of friends seem to hate it, either due to being Battleborn martyrs or just sticking with free hero FPS. Will there be problem trying to understand people with everybody using their own language on voice / text, or does the game try to pair you with people that have set the same game language as you whenever is possible?

You on PC? Join the discord and make friends with us. We're nice and there are plenty of EU peeps.

Yeah, but I'm one of those over the top shy people when it comes to voice communication, just listening and keeping myself to things like "on my way", "agreed" or "ok" when strictly necessary in game. I could give it a try, I guess. This time it's not a deathmatch and I am going to have to learn from others.
PS: I have a big lanparty incoming in July, so it would be a good idea to learn a bit how to play before going there.
That's fine. Just come say hi in the text server and look for peeps to play with. We try to be helpful if you need to learn things.
After hundreds of hours of raging at Genji mains, I have finally recognized a pattern of weakness in them: they never switch out of Genji. Never. N-e-v-e-r. Even when they are being hard counter-pulverized they will never ever switch out. Only Genji mains too. I mean yeah there are the odd widowmaker or Hanzo mains who exhibit this behaviour but this is extremely prevalent in Genji mains.
Because you just wait until I get my sword up and then you'll see what I can do!!11!
I guess even Genji mains just think that Genji is so damn good that he is universal pick.
Btw, does anyone else try to max out Winstons Jump pack damage by doing a melee right before landing on an enemy?
The Rein one is gonna be amazing. Just for you.
He basically was up until the most recent patch, and even then he's still basically fine in most things.
True, out of all the heroes he is propably the closest to being a universal pick. But sometimes it just doesn't work. The winston is just too good and has the Genji running away from Winston the whole match. Running away is less time wrecking Winston's team so in those moments it would be better to switch out but none of them does that.

I just played a Mei with 95 hours this season alone. I officially have PTSD. She literally spawn camped me (As Symmetra) and our Soldier in our spawn on Hanamura by herself while our team was fighting on the point.
We still won though (Because we switched to counter her, and she refused to swap), but jesus <_<
Rematched and he's on my team now. Time to release my pain upon the world

We lost with her <_<, I see why she tanked from 4100 to 3500, she doesnt swap off Mei ever
McCree throws flashbang, I deflect, flashbang hits, deflect goes on cooldown.
What?? I get that lag is why my deflect didn't block it but surely it shouldn't go on cd if the game thinks I didn't even use it on time. That shit is annoyingly common overall. Sometimes abilities get completely rolled back like you never used them and sometimes they're just gone.
I know that McCree can avoid deflect with the flashbang but here he threw it right at me.
