Overwatch - Blizzard's latest game

I've played some Zen on occasion if our Tanks/DPS don't have much self sustain (lack of soldier, reaper, mei, zarya, roadhog) especially coupled with Symetta as the 2nd support. but he's more like a 0.5 healer

I fear a zen as hog if there's a distance between us. Get completely rolled.

Reaper having full ammo after Wraith Form on the PTR would be a big help. I play him quiet a bit and often Wraith away instead of reloading if I'm 50/50 about winning an engagment

The best buff for Reaper would be to muffle the sound of his footsteps. He sounds like an Elephant sneaking up on you.

I ended up having two draws in a row between last night and tonight, really weird to happen twice after only 4 draws ever before that.

Had a fantastic game on Gibraltar too, got to the third point on attack with a team kill in overtime. Had a Hanzo who was cleaning up, whenever I checked the scoreboard he was on fire.

We were getting rolled on defense then, they made it to the bend before the last point with 4:30 left, we had 5 down, and Hanzo (now McCree) pulls out a quad kill, me and the other guy on mic were nearly squealing with happiness.

Talk about saving our hides, we ended up winning that.

Had two QP games that were pretty funny (to me) too, first game was defense on Volkskaya, and we had them spawn blocked, literally all six of them quit, then another two or three, so the new team rolled out and ended up beating us.

Similar on Numbani attack, absolutely rolled the first point, and 5 of them quit at the same time.

I'm warming to Orisa, even if not quite mastering her yet. Without a Reinhartd to pair with she feels vulnerable. Being able to lob shields over distance to protect team mates in trouble is handy though.

Yeah I've been playing her a lot, I find she works best sitting back with the support characters as her health is pretty low for a tank. Seems very versatile though, have had good games with her on attack and defense.

She's a beast in 3v3 I find; cancelling Rein charges or Roadhog hooks is a game-changer. I've been trying to get better at timing Halt for environmental kills on a few maps, but still not there yet. It's best craic on the Ilios well map, naturally enough.

I had a really tough time yesterday against an Orisa on King's Row defence, she constantly had her barrier up beside the statue, between the choke and the point, and we couldn't get through at all. She kept yanking me back to the choke to finish the kill whenver I tried to retreat for healing.

Use your Fortify ability while you still have Armour, you can tank quite a bit of damage.

Didn't realise that, best use I've found for it so far is countering Mei's attempts at freezing me.

Played for the first time in a while last night. First map was Gibraltar, won it 9-6, had some terrible defences..leavers..rejoiners, epic ult combos, rez's, extended 2 point overtimes. I was so tired after it actually had to turn if off and go to bed.

Finally hit plat! Started at 1878 after placements. It's taken 287 games to get here.

I must make that final push for a golden gun before the end of the season.

Where did you see the start date?

I only saw the post about the season ending on the 29th and a note saying there would be a shorter offseason than normal.
