    Giving out double SR for wins sounds like something people would try and exploit, though it would be a good incentive not to quit as soon as you realise you're joining a match in progress.

    How would you abuse it though?

    No idea, maybe on one of the more quiet servers you'd figure something out with your friends though I'm not sure this game has any servers that quiet.

    I seem to be doing a lot of healing as mercy this comp season. Most recent games I have been somewhere between 15,000 and 19,000 healing done per match. So had a look at my stats and that puts me in the top 3% for healing :D

    Bear in mind if your looking at Overbuff etc it's showing your stats compared to others at your level I think.

    You must be Solo healing to get those numbers? I had 18k average when climbing from 1700 - 2100 because nobody shot at me. Now that I'm up around 2200 I'm been killed a few times per game so my average has fallen a bit.

    I was checking Master Overwatch, from what I can tell they are the overall stats for comp not just at your skill level but maybe someone better in the knw could clear that up :D

    Ah I solo heal mostly cos in fairness we only need 1 mercy :P but we have had a lucio in a few games too but I still get close to 15k healing in them games too.

    Most I've ever gotten is 24000. That was a 6 round tie game though. I think my average is about 5k per round.

    I don't get near that with Lucio, but I much prefer playing as him. He's my favourite Hanzo hunter.

    I gained over 300 SR from solo queuing today. Dunno what the fcuk kinda luck was on my side.

    Was wrecking **** as Genji though.. lol

    Jayus that's some jump, that's about 15 games worth with zero losses.

    Ok so maybe only 10-12!

    And I lost about 330SR yesterday. At one point the number of losses in a row didn't even make sense. I mean, statistically speaking even if the problem was me* I should have been on a team good enough to win regardless. :pac:

    The stubbornness of some people's Hero picks is staggering though. Teams clearly in need of a second tank or healer or even dps and what does the last person to pick to go with? Hanzo or Widow or...Mei? Ask (usually the former two) to change and they ignore you. Someone gets more testy asking them and you get a "**** you....I carry" or some other nonsense. Spoiler: They do not carry.

    * To be fair, based on attempts at team play and finishing medals the problem was not me.

    Yeah, ten wins in a row. I fully expect to lose my next ten now :pac:

    Just got really lucky in a few matches tbh. Couple of games where an opponent left early too

    Shocked he's not a tank, looks like a lot of fun though, pretty much all melee.

    Mei is an excellent pick on defense, especially on 2CP maps.

    The dive comp has countered her hard. She needs a speed boost when running on ice she fires on the ground in-front of her.

    She is just bad this season,. this season is all about speed and angles, when she ice blocks and wall esacape bull**** she generaslly runs into 2-3. I like mei, she played a part well but not this season,


    Also i think they nerfed anna too hard, they either need to give her nano back its speed boost or her rifle back its damage, either or, maybe cut 25 healing off the nade to even it out if it doesnt work, but she is so out of favour its scary
