Downloading the console patch now - won't be able to play any until later tonight but time to at least get the update out of the way.
Looking forward to trying out the updated Winston and Sombra - I might actually not fail horribly as her now that health packs show up to teammates as well as Orisa probably being in every match.

Is not getting hit by his own projectiles the only change?
I might give junk a whirl now. Like everyone, I used to use him a lot when I started playing, but haven't in a long time.

The more Junks the merrier.

I love rng mechanics in my strategic FPS games.
You were always beatiful. You don't need him.
Yes, it makes him much much scarier in close quarters.

You say that like it's not a big deal.
Yuuup. No longer will I have to worry about a flying Genji jumping in front of me and killing myself.
Can't wait to use him on KotH more.

As Sartre noted in his contemplation on Hell in No Exit, the true horror is other members.
I don't understand the feeling. I've saved more games for my team as Junkrat than I can count
Look forward to trying this, but I can't imagine you would be immune to a Genji reflect would you?
If she had it her shift button would be redundantCan Pharah get the change too?! D:
Nah she probably doesn't need it as much.

Lik just blowin people up
Yea, still used him often when needed but KOTH is gonna be exciting.

Same's true for Reaper really. Plus I've iced plenty of Widowmakers with a good rebound .
It is indeed a proud Junkrat moment to bring down Pharah though.
Reaper's pretty universally acknowledged as being in a bad place right now though- you only ever see him busted out in pro play, and even then he's super rare.
Junkrat is a near-guarantee in low level play.

People made fun of my gold Junkrat gun and hurt my feelings.
I ran a lot of Reaper with a lot of success in S2, but since then just no luck with him.
More Rez-enabled 1v1 action
these 1v1 battle mercy rez gifs have been giving me life, friend

Got to play two games, just farting around in QP before I head out for a while.
Even with the changes I still suck as Sombra, but hoooo boy Junkrat feels so good now. I've been doing mediocre with him recently but the game I had on Eichenwalde felt amazing. When the enemy team goes Bastion-Reinhardt-Orisa, Junkrat has a field day. I was kicking ass and taking names, holy shit. I think it's less a product of the explosives change and more just meta changing.

Lol got off from a payload match as D.Va where I was lagging so bad for the middle timespan of the match, then screwed up on a ult, but then at the end I was able to have a successful ult on the last point which lead to a victory and PotG.
From really frustrated to really satisfied lol.

Halt seems neat for focusing fire and such, but using it to redirect players back onto the wrong side of Orisa's barrier is gonna be super fun. Huge amount of potential for grief there.

Blizz' console QA is seriously terrible
I feel like they just push the changes live first and then wait and see if they broke anything lmao.

I just think that they don't give as many fucks for consoles.
Devs probably play on PC, and the nerf came after Jeffrey played him a bit on PC.

Least they can fix it quickly on pc
That was amazing LMAO. utter mayhem. I remember seeing a video of Nepal with everything just covered in ice

Really liking Rein/Orisa on defense. That shield gives a lot of breathing room for Rein.
Don't think it will work as well on attack but we'll see.

Nothing about Orisa cannot be played around tbh

next hero will just kick you on a 4s cooldown hopefully
probably a gamer that makes all your controls turn into random bindings

So what's the consensus on Orisa? I'm excited for the Winston buff but I'm also pretty hyped for a new tank.
Her kit is a very been there down that. It's nice to have a new character but as of right now im not as impressed

Honestly the problem is with the burst damage in this game. If you get stunned for minimal damage it wouldn't be so bad.

I'm already really good with Sombra, I'm excited to see how her changes affect her
