Most people are at least in voice when I play, so that's pretty weird.

That's a reason they gave me. While I'll never understand that personally, I didn't want to continue bothering so I quickly left the Discord after a while.
Oh well, maybe I'll be luckier with wins next season.

I forgot to post this earlier but Team Seoul revealed last night that they have signed Fleta, Munchkin, and Xepher for their OWL team.
Fleta - Flex DPS, ex-Flash Lux, literally the biggest carry player in the history of Overwatch and an insane player that's going to take a month before he becomes a household name.
Munchkin - Hitscan DPS, ex -Rhinos Gaming Wings and ex-Lazer Kittenz, was previously signed to Lunatic Hai but stepped down after a big controversy over how toxic he was on his smurf in comp.
Xepher - Off tank, ex-Cloud 9, also was on the same team as Geguri that accused her of hacking and was pretty much banned from Korean teams as a result until now I guess. He never made any accusations to my knowledge but his involvement on that team pretty much made him a part of the whole controversy.

It does, but getting there ain't easy. I was lucky that I had three team-mates seemingly on their game and in sync with me. Even then it was really close, that final gauntlet is no joke.

There is no way I'm ever getting that Witch Mercy spray if I can't even do the bonus rounds in Endless mode on Normal.
Woah nice! Looks like I was right that it ends.

its an EXTREMELY slow process with the overwatch community, but each season does get marginally harder. youre just falling behind the curve tbh. that and the new mercy changes require smarter play. you cant just hide in spawn and res your entire team anymore

Mixed bag of games today. Barely hanging on in the 3K range, which is a step up from last season at least. The average SR gain/loss is about 1.5 wins per loss, which makes it really tough to climb.
At least I'm getting my Tracer mojo back a bit. If Mercy got nerfed I think this meta would be pretty solid.

82 hour Mercy main insta-locks Symmetra, we get steamrolled on first point, he proceeds to bitch about how our barely 3 hour Mercy isn't rezzing anyone.
I really wish it were possible to strangle people through the TV sometimes.

No matter how great your game with randoms goes. The golden rule is never group up.
No regrets butttttt it hasnt worked out for awhile.

This game reminds me of when the game first launched and people just ignored Tracer completely. If only I could hit headshots or pulse bombs.

Just had a comp game where a Mei spent all match icewalling us in spawn and out of the objective. If you run into a Josuega33195 on PS4... I am so sorry. It looks like he only started doing this as he only had 31 minutes on Mei.
I reported him, but I know that won't do anything.
I reported him, but I know that won't do anything.
I accidentally joined a Comp game today and it went through before I could cancel. Was with a 3 stack that didn't communicate (while the enemy team was obviously doing so), and no mics on the other 2, so I was the sole voice in the game, but we won, so no biggie.
I feel that staying positive is such a boost to the game. The game was long and our win was pretty narrow, and it would have been so easy to tilt (one guy in the 3 stack insisted on Bastion on defense even when they were countering it) and that would have been straight up game over. But pulling a win out of those desperate situations is when Overwatch is at it's best.

I feel like Blizzard fucked up with the comp changes and created some sort of massive elo hell in Masters/Mid Masters.
Last season being in the 3700-3800s would put you at around #2500-3000 ranking. This season barely being 3520 is #2998

To anyone on console who thinks Lucio, Zen, or Ana are acceptable solo healers as long as current Mercy exists, I hate you and hope you fall into Platinum so I can actually win matches again this season.
Even more fun down in gold where they complain about me picking Zenyatta when the rest of the team has picked 4 attack characters and a Hanzo.
15-8 tonight..up to 2365. Surprisingly went 8-3 with Roadhog.

Get Capture match against Top 500s and GMs, win 2-1, win while on fire. Get 2 SR.
The fuck Blizzard?

well to be fair, the trio of you me and owzers is 5-2. That´s not bad.
Fell asleep after Owzers got banned lol
I didn't even know it was possible to gain single digit Sr.

Neither did I till it fucking just happened to me.....
If the game expects you to win you wont get much SR.
They banned me for all those missed charges

2800 SR. I don't think it's possible to get to Gold at this point with the limited time I have.

Yeah it's a glitch.
People pointed it out to Blizzard when it was discovered on the PTR, but they still pushed it to live despite acknowledging it as a glitch.

Really annoying bug, killed me many times.
Pulse bomb has seemed really glitchly lately too. If I throw it when I die it seems to not appear at all but still takes the ult meter down to zero.
The pulse bomb thing happened to me to. I knew it was weird
Wow wonder why they did that. I almost want to call them incompetent
Vault Dweller 111

That makes sense for Genji, Reaper, Solider, etc. But Pulse bomb either has been thrown or it hasn't. What's is a situation where it makes sense that you push the button but the bomb isn't actually used and the ult meter is reset?
Fleta and Munchkin looked really good in the showmatch against K9 and those Chinese teams. Xepher less so.
Fleta did great on every hero he pulled out. I think he's easily the biggest pickup in LH, and will give them some much-needed comp flexibility. The Fleta+WhoRU DPS pair looked incredibly strong.
Speaking of that match, the LH vs Miraculous Youngster match was really good. That MY McCree player is amazing.
You can pretty much shorten it down to this.
Yesterday I experienced both of those glitches. I'm glad people are aware of them.

The pulse bomb has to actually leave your hand and be thrown or it disappears if you die, it's not a glitch.
It was the same way in the past too you just wouldn't lose your ultimate.

Same thing goes for Lucio and dropping the beat. If he gets stunned or killed while on his way back to the ground, the Sound Barrier doesn't go off and he loses the Ult Charge completely.

That still is a very obvious, "jump and when you land the ult goes off" how many frames are between 'ult charge at zero' and 'bomb is thrown'? Seems like too many.
