True, but his ult is probably the best to combine with, since Reinhardt can't shield it. Anyway, you should always combine ults so no reason why you can't get a couple of kills with it.

1. Sombra Ult to deny possible Zenyatta Ult.
2. Zarya Ult to bunch.
3. D'Va / Hanzo / Pharah Ult to wipe.

Timing would need to be good though. 6 sec's for Sombra and only 4 for Zarya.

I despise Hanamura. The attacking teams always stomps point A and then it's 10 minutes of banging your head against a wall trying to take point B.

Even on defence, it's incredibly boring since it's very easy to hold.

This is good lads, if you are in silver, and good advice in general. Have a loosie. Especially the part about playing your role. Id be evangelical about that

It all sounds so obvious, but I'm looking forward to having a couple of games now and trying to keep each of these points in mind. I'm perma-silver this season.

Competitive has alot of people that shouldnt be there, Lost 300 odd in the last few days due to teams with a comp of like anna, attack torb, mei etc, you just be like, why do i bother healing

Ana is a top tier pick until this coming patch nerfs her...

That aside, there's so many idiots in comp...it's only gotten worse since S1. People will not swap off of heroes even if they're fúcking potatoes on them. I had a S76 refusing to swap because he had gold medal for damage (against a heap of tanks) but was killing absolutely nobody. It seems people still haven't figured out that damage means sweet fup all in this game because healers and shields exist.

She'll still be top, even with nerf still best burst healing, also medals are a stupid way of doing styff, you get a kill if you do 1 hp damage within 5 seconds of death

I have an urge to try and learn Mercy, but I think that's because I enjoy thankless tasks.

Temple of Anubis marginally is worse

If you can get a Phara and/or Rein to hang around with you, you can get some real work done.

Power boosting a Bastion is where the fun is :P (or that occasional God like Widow/Hanzo player who knows how to hit).

Save up 3-4 Ults and Use em all at once.... even if you "feed" for 3+ minutes to charge your ult, if you have say Lucio+Zarya+Soldier+Rheinheart, you will get a team wipe, just have a contingency plan to "bait" their counter ults, like Zen. Hello, it'd happily see a team mate waste an ult just to ensure our combo of utls doesn't get countered

At least with ToA, Point B is more open. You can attack at the sides, or with some characters go over the bottleneck. Hanamura, if a Bastion or Torb on defense sets up behind Point B to the right, they have the whole thing covered. Can be a f*cking nightmare.

Also, biggest bugbear at the minute is when playing Mystery Heroes and people won't concentrate their fire on the Torb/Symmetra. Kill them and their turrets will disappear when they respawn! Stop shooting the turrets while Torb/Sym shoots you, meaning they just set up new turrets after you die... again...

I started playing on US serves, fine if you're not a soldier or mcree main.

A lot more talking even down at the low mid gold level. Lot more people want to heal too. Worth a few games

madcabbage

Anyone have issues with stuttering on the EU servers? I seem to be fine playing on the US ones even with 100+ ms ping which seems daft.

Sight808

Both were working fine for me an hour ago

I honestly don't get this.... why are people actually trolling in ranked games. Like being toxic about team comp and troll picking torb on attack and then being afk at spawn for the whole game. People need a fúcking swift thump with the banhammer for that, permanently ban them from playing the game and let them fork out another 40 euro if they want to play again.

People have a cod mentality of deathmach. Oh I killed their hanzo 10 times, yeah but did you kill anyone standing on the point? Did you defend the point? This game isn't all about kd and they get pissy if you call them out on it. These days I mainly fill in as ana or rein. If I'm in a ****ty team I'll just bring out reaper as he's a char I enjoy

I thought this was funny

Reinhardt charges in and the entire enemy team turns around to chase him

Overwatch Highlight Intros with Cats

*new player question klaxon*

What's the point of the Winston intro video? It's like a story mode tease.

I think Winston was left in charge of the Overwatch mainframe or something something.
