yeah, although keep in mind the timer is almost always wrong and last event i'm pretty sure you could get the 3 arcade boxes before it ended
but yeah just doing it tonight to be safe would be the best option

Thanks for the HotS matches guys.
If my frame rate didn't drop into the 10s sometimes and I own a mouse I might actually play it for fun sometime.

yah, you don't wanna be that dude who missed out at the last minute because Blizzard decided to end the the event early.

This may sound really weird but I enjoy the game a lot more and have a better relationship with it now that I've unlocked everything in the event and don't have to stress about it anymore.
Now it's just fun! I still refuse to play competitive mode so my dream of having a golden weapon may never come true.

Too bad we lost that two last games, but we got a nice winning streak there. I played mostly like shit today, but your Rein game is really good man, you deserve more than plat for sure.
BTW, I don't know if you noticed, but in the Gibraltar game one of my friends was staying in the respawn point in the last minutes of defense when the other guys were a couple of meters away from getting the third point. Dude didn't know what to pick and he just stood there. I was telling him to get his ass out there...but I didn't realize I had my mic muted T_T

I don't know any videos, but it is an interesting topic, considering how different Valve and Blizzard are. Valve sucks at communication, but TF2 was very open and thrived on community-created content, while Blizzard is great at communication, but only meets the community halfway when it comes to custom content.

You get a chance to get three more boxes after the reset at 7pm EST tomorrow. Definitely do it sometime tomorrow night at the latest though.

A specific one? Idk, I like Overwatch much better but TF2 definitely has a more open nature due to the custom servers and whatnot.
Yeah dude, nice win streak we got there! Ha, thanks. You did good man, filled in roles quite well.
Ah that makes sense, I was wondering how we got overwhelmed at the last point. Looking forward for another winning streak tomorrow!
Yes, it is a specific analysis video that I need for a class. I can't remember the name of it or the channel it came from, though.

Genji - 1000 damage reflected
That's good, I solo q the odd time but been burned way too many times with the comp. I prefer duo or 4 stacks now. How far down did you drop down too?
Yay, I found the video:

"Errant Signal: Social Spaces & Payload Races"
No wonder I couldn't remember the title.

Oh, I forgot about this video and I even watched it when it came out.
Who's your main in solo q?
was in 3400s dropped to to 26xx! Lol
No one really now just playing whatever is needed... Lots of dva, lots of Zen, some soldier,some Winston.
That's a hell of a drop! I'm around 26** trying to get near diamond. Really going for it this season
Can anyone help me try to get all the achievements for the uprising dlc?
Xbox one later tonightgt: xGeneral Ice
Doubt I'll be able to help tonight but where are you placed on comp? Finding fellow XB1 players are hard to find on here.

Boo!
The last two times I played I've had awful, weird lag. I can't imagine it's a connection thing because the play sessions were more than 48 hours apart.
It's making it easy to stay away at least.

I knew a lot of people who got really upset about this spray. I really like it myself.All I need is Blackwatch McCree, Talon Widowmaker, and Null Sector OR14 Orisa. Otherwise, I'm pretty much set from this event, especially after getting Mei's new spray and the Overwatch skins for Tracer, Reinhardt, Mercy, and Torbjorn.
It's a cute spray
Why would people get upset with it? I think it's a cute spray, and wouldn't mind this being a possible casual outfit skin for Mei (eventually when the heroes get such skins in the future).

They really need to add an actual Solo Queue. I enjoy solo queue way more than solo queue except you have a group of 4 who have all climbed the ladder as a group cheesing wins against teams who can't work together on your team.
Enjoy being in the worst rank, random player wise. I hated being in diamond. Everyone was skilled enough to move up but the lack of common sense was astounding.
Can't resist....
You won't have to worry about more Jazz games keeping you away.
(Jazz look fine)
Fuck yourselves with this 6stack QP tryhard shit
blizzard has adopted the same 'its just qp brah' mentality in its matchmaking as the community

Finally did my placements after taking another few months break, ranked around 3250, and my brother got me up to master. Now I'm going to let it derank to 3000 so I can play with my brother on his other account (2 brothers share the same account; 1 is like platinum tier and the other is master).
So just been playing QP, and somehow it got worse than the last time I've played - end of January. Before it was around 1/3 games we would actually got an ok comp, but now it's about 1/6 games. 1/2 the time the other team looks like this:
I don't mind going up against a duo or even a triple, but don't put me up against a full team of masters/grand/top 500's, when my team only has a duo/triple. Like there's no way were going to win, especially when my team picks no healers or tanks. I don't mind people trying out different heroes in QP, but most of the time it's instalocked Genji/Tracer/Widow and they're not new heroes to those players. I will usually pick a tank/healer if that happens, and give it 1 life to see how we're doing/give them a chance to pick a tank, if not I'll just switch to what I want to play.
Not sure how they can change the system in QP ("it's just QP mentality, means no changing will probably ever happen) but removing putting solo players against 5/6 stacks is a start.

Why not just leave? There's no penalty.
Because you just requeue back into the same game.
It's not even the SR difference, our team was mostly Master/GM, too, it's just that when a bunch of randoms see a 6stack playing a meta comp, they just give up and it turns into a meme game. If I want meme games, I'll look at the custom game browser. I usually do get fun games in QP.
