Overwatch |OT9| There is no Cow Hero

Won two insane competitive matches back to back. The first was an intense Oasis round where we won 3-2, twice we were at 99 percent in Overtime, at 2-1, then 2-2. Also had a round where we almost got shutout but came back and won.

The second one was Gibraltar, we almost got to the end on attack, but got shut down hard at the end. Someone on our team left, but our defense held and we won 5v6.

Overwatch is the best.

Just played Reaper on both offense and defense (with a great Mercy healer who was in another game with me) and just rolled through them so hard that we won in 3 minutes 20 seconds on attack. And a six man kill POTG. It feels so good. I was gearing up for a long match but it was over so quick.

Back to the grind on getting back to Diamond.

Just had to post that. Wish I had captured footage but I don't know how. Guess I should look it up...

Finished placement matches - only won 3 of them but came out in gold. Actually no idea how good that is only did 3 placement matches in season 3. Had one match defense on Eichenwalde not too far in I got hit with a massive weird lag spike then disconnected from the server - managed to get back into the game but they'd already taken point A. No one else got disconnected and my internet was fine :\

lol has he got out of plat yet? He got stuck there yesterday. I think if you only place shield gen and never use teleporter, the games thinks you're doing nothing and you get less points for it because it doesn't track shield gen stats.

He only used shield gen so he could run around and get cheap kills.

FINALLY some luck with boxes. One box gave me Zarya's skin and the next one gave me D.va's. Thank you RNG.

Only took like 40 boxes of blues and whites.

I haven't gotten an anniversary skin dupe or otherwise since Bastion like 25 boxes ago.

Last legendary was explorer Winston (dupe) like 15 boxes ago.

So excited for double exp!

I actually really like Reaper more as a front line DPS than a flanker except flanking close to the front lines via teleport on offense. Being able to ghost back to your Mercy is super huge when you're overwhelmed. Way more beneficial than trying to be the solo game changing flanker.

When a sym keeps putting teles instead of shield gens in KOTH...you know you got a troll.

Especially when they keep saying they're carrying the team when you already have the whole team calling out who has gold/sliver/bronze elims/dmg.

Especially when the team asks how much damage he has and then says it's gold, but bronze comes out and says he's higher.

I'm on the verge of being a Pharah one trick. I feel like I'm doing a lot of stuff with the character that others aren't and, while I'm pretty good at some other characters, I'm hitting above my weight class as Pharah to a much greater extent.

fired zero bullets in the orphanage.
It's kinda incredible how I can pull dupes of voice lines and shit when I barely have anything overall from the new drops.

Diamond seems tough so far.

Hard to dictate what to use, when the team sucks I use shields, if we have 50% and the enemy challenges more, i'll use tp . this sym seems ass though .

Arcade is such a hassle. I see why they put loot boxes behind them because they know no one would ever play it unless they gave them something.

Every Mayhem the attacking team leaves because its pretty much 99% of the time attackers lose, so why bother playing attacking. So now every match takes 4 minutes to find because everyone just leaves over and over till they get on the defending team.

MH is slightly more bearable. But it often seems hell bent on making one team lose regardless of how they're playing. It's still garbage, though.

Anas and Lucios almost always look after my Zen, but I always have an Orb on them when needed, too.

Mercys though... the only time they pay attention to me is when there are flankers coming at her. Then she's all over me with Damage Boosts and Heals, after GAing and kiting them right at me, of course.

Sometimes she even says thanks after I save us.

Fov must be set to 60. But when we have pharmercy. I usually throw an orb on pharah so mercy can dmg boost. But man they got to check surrounding. Maybe one game there was a mercy who talked. I can't complain I just started using my mic this season lul.

Right now my zen sits at 20-7 this season
Got a card most games with like over 50% kill participation with my offensive assist.

Damn, nice Zenning!

I'm creeping up to the 50% mark on occasion, but most of the time my cards are in the high 30s /low 40s. Which I'm actually pretty proud of- I'm a Silver/Gold player, and I've come a long way in the last few months with my Zen.

You gotta love the toxic players who talk shit about you picking Hanzo then proceed to continue to talk shit and berate you when the match is over and you've won. It's crazy. I've had this happen to me twice now. Annoying as fuck.

All I did was blasting Pharah and Reinhardt (Mr. noob asshole) with my ult in the end and won.

I did my job on defense. Why the toxicity?

Never understood why people tilt when the team is winning, seen that a few times as well. Just miserable people...

Had a horrible few matches with an Orisio. He would chat and complain about our team, our picks, our wins, other team picks. He even claimed to not be trying. I can at least say this is the first baby I've played at 60 hours so that's good

I found it pretty easy to get through my 9 wins by just doing 3v3 elim. Since I'm pretty much a support main I just had to do my job for three rounds. Usually I'm facing off against teams without support mains so we clean up. I think I went 8-2 before I finally won my 9th today.

When we win I just change (since I'm forced to). Mercy is my last choice but once we win with Zen and Lucio it's pretty easy to get one more with mercy.
