Haha. Yeah I can only stomach so much QP... Gets pretty boring after a while. Practicing new characters is okay. But it just feels like I'm treading water with them.

The D.Va ult was ace tho.

yeah but you've gotta do 5 games before the 5 games to unlock d.va too, might as well do the first 5 games this week so you can unlock oni genji if you haven't already

Did em! The oni skin is pretty damn cool. I played 7 total games because for 2 of the first 5 i wasnt playing with a friend apparently, lol. My laptop was borderline on fire during the games and since its such a piece of shit it throttles (it was a big issue back in the day) and i get disconnected and reconnected. So yeah...bad experience but not super terrible haha.

I really don't see how anyone can play the console version of the game and not agree that Soldier is imbalanced.

Not outrageously so, like to the point where people can't handle him. But the advantage is so obviously there. The aim assist helps him SO much more than any other hero. I don't see how people can ever actually use McCree deftly enough on console to outDPS him even if that's how it works on the PC.

His damage output and weapon spread is such that people just find any random highpoint and basically just piss down a hail of assault bullets. I seriously don't feel like I'm being legitimately outplayed when people do this and it's not fun at all. Especially if he uses his ult. Every other flanker needs to seriously earn their flank, because it's either obvious like Pharah's rocket barrage or gives the enemy team enough time to react to like McCree. Soldier just sprints on top somewhere, activates his visor, and by the time you realize where he even is, hes' already putting the final bullet in you.

In addition to that, his abilities are annoying as fuck to deal with, having an infinite sprint on top of a rocket that will kill most enemies and a heal station that makes him effectively a 400 HP hero. I hate the number of times he gets off with a sliver of health, only to slam that thing down and be back to full health within seconds.

I think someone put put a chart that showed he was picked more than every other Offense Character COMBINED.

He's become the only reliable tank buster since Reaper is so much less mobile.

He's almost Reinhardt levels of necessity, in that if the enemy doesn't have a soldier and you do, it's over before it's even begun.

Yep, usually whenever I argue with people who say Soldier isn't overturned end up being on PC exclusively. He's been too good on console for a while now and Blizzard seems to have dropped any pretense of balancing the console and PC versions separately so we're stuck with him.

And yeah you didn't even mention his healing station which persists for an eternity.

Yah fuck this game sometimes.

Can they just disallow currency drops during holiday/event boxes? Oh wait, no, that would mean people actually get stuff.
