Wowowowowowowoowoww, hold on a sec. The line from Ana to Pharah has a branch...
Third Amari confirmed!?

Good. They've been needing to do this.

 

[Salarians]

I love everything about Sombra.

 

[Papercuts]

When I read her abilities I didn't think the teleport was going to be something she can hurl so far like that. Jesus.

Her ult is going to be insane.

 

[LumpOfCole]

It's time, to D-D-D-DUUELLL

Awesome.

How's the panel so far?

 

[OdysseusVA]

TDM :/
I hope theres some kind of twist. Single life rounds at least?

Wait, Arcade + No Limits... are they removing hero stacking from QP?

 

[Tovarisc]

They should bring those rewards to QP and Ranked too. Box for first win of the day or something.

6 v 6 no limits has 3 tracers? No hero limit so quick play gets one hero limit?

wait, what? what is this? new weekly brawl thing?

 

[AngryMoth]

Wonder if EMP is a line of sight thing or just everywhere within the radius

 

[yeehamuffins]

Hope this means Mystery Heroes is a permanent game mode now. One of my favorite brawls, and would play it a hell of a lot if it's always there.

EDIT: Sounds like it, yes! And hero limits coming to QP as well, awesome.

 

[LiK]

1-hero limit QP should have loot boxes for winning.

 

[Tovarisc]

It requires LOS.

1-hero limit QP should have loot boxes for winning.

All PvP modes should reward boxes outside of just leveling up.

 

[TheSpoiler]

Is it just me or are people on these lower levels just not giving a shit anymore? I just played five games and people were purposefully doing dumb things like picking widow and putting sentries in dumb places. Like, half the team.

Guess we handing out free wins today

 

[Jellie]

Wonder if EMP is a line of sight thing or just everywhere within the radius

Line of site but only if in the range. Stylosa messed it up on stream as he was above them so no LOS as the floor he was on blocked it.

 

[NeoRaider]

That Sombra Gameplay trailer tho...

Is she the best think that happened since game was released??

Yes she is.

 

[Kurumi]

That cyberspace skin....

 

[WaffleTaco]

So what are all the announcements/changes besides Sombra?

 

[jediyoshi]

Awesome.

How's the panel so far?

Great, you can tell kaplan's tired of the internet's shit at this point

 

[Poodlestrike]

So, lore bit: I think we got a look at a new baddy faction in that Sombra origin video. That icon that "noticed" her, it's different from Talon in that later diagram.

 

[darklin0]

That Sombra Gameplay trailer tho...

Yes she is.

3rd best thing.

Genji Ult nerf was the 1st.
Ana is the second best thing.
Sombra is a close third.

QP single hero limit confirmed. They'll have an Arcade mode with stacking.

 

[jediyoshi]

[LAM09]

I can see her being used alot.

I thought it was logo of Los Muertos?

Probably Omnic faction. Hoping it is an Omnic faction.

 

[Strakt]

They need to introduce something else to spend competitive points on aside from golden guns..

 

[LiK]

single hero limit qp in ptr next week

Woohoo

 

[Skii]

Just thinking why you would play Reaper, Tracer or Genji when you can play Sombra... Best team set up would probably be 3 tanks, 2 supports and a flanking Sombra.

 

[OdysseusVA]

single hero limit qp in ptr next week

THIS IS THE BEST THING EVER

 

[xaosslug]

YESSS @ Arcade mode... give me my op Mei everyday, yes, yes, yes!

RIP Zylbrad

but honestly why would you stop spinning an shooting in that situation? LOL

 

[Tovarisc]

Probably Omnic faction. Hoping it is an Omnic faction.

Omnic faction logo is on her left;

 

[Moonkeis]

QP single hero limit confirmed. They'll have an Arcade mode with stacking.

So happy about this, best news yet. Well, Sombra was ok .

 

[LiK]

No more shit stacking in QP is a huge relief.

 

[Alucrid]

RIP Zylbrad

finally a character that people can pick to deal with bastion



lol jk, i'm still going to stand there with my shield as no teammates shoot at him

 

[yeehamuffins]

Yeah, this Arcade mode is sounding awesome. Permanent Mystery Heroes, rotating between the other old brawls, even the 1v1 sounds kinda interesting. Looking forward to it all going live. That said: I can't imagine ever touching the "No Limits" mode, and I'll be glad to see stacks gone forever.

 

[NeoRaider]

QP single hero limit confirmed. They'll have an Arcade mode with stacking.

Finally. QP will become little better now.

 

[Data West]

sombra and lucio are anti-capitalism anarchists.

this is the new ship meta.

boop.

RIP Zylbrad

why does the gif stop at the point where she's in point blank range of bastion and instantly mowed down?

 

[killdatninja]

I'm loving Sombra but... she can't really release like the way she is right now right?

Low cool downs on her abilities (6 seconds portal/cloak, 12 seconds for hacking)
Obscene amounts of DPS, with very decent range AND large clip size
Hacking health kits lasts 1 minute (WTF? that's a quarter of a 4 minute round), can be done every 12 seconds (WTF???) AND it makes the health pop up faster for your team...
Great maneuverability for moving around the map
Passive ability that allows you to see characters who are low on health (WTF??)

They might as well retire tracer, Sombra is easily an instant lock if she releases this way.

EDIT: I just realized, Junkrat might be a natural counter to Sombra. Junkrat in the meta finally?

 

[SmackAttack]

They need to introduce something else to spend competitive points on aside from golden guns..

That would be nice. I was finally able to afford one last week and while it is very cool, I would like to not have to wait so long before I can get another and spend what I have on something else.

 

[xaosslug]

even tho Sombra can hack tf out of D.Va, not needing to reload sort of ups her viability as far as Sombra detection... same w/ Junkrat and his grenade spam.

 

[Red Arremer]

Oasis is going to be a Control/KOTH map. Will have jump pads.

Hopefully they do a full-time 1-hero mode 6v6 mode in arcade so people can practice comp-style gameplay

QP single hero limit confirmed. They'll have an Arcade mode with stacking.

This works too.

 

[falconxcrunner09]

Anyone have a compiled list everything Overwatch related announced today????

 

[divisionbyzorro]

One hero limit in QP? So long toxic competitive players. It wasn't nice knowing you.
