My Little Pony Friendship is Magic part 18: We Don't Need No Stinkin Hiatus

Hmmm, maybe I should continue writing that story I've had in my head for years.

Animals are fascinating.

Bastion needs a buff. Not in anything like damage, which would be legitimately beyond stupid, but something. He's super easy to counter as it stands.

Oh I totally agree. I've been hoping for Bastion changes for a long time. He's easily the most useless character in the Roster. Well, besides Mercy anyway.

Its funny when overwatch first came out all I would hear is people complaining about how OP bastion was.

And now, people just complain when you pick Bastion

Eh, Mercy is actually very, very good in premade groups. If she's protected at all she shifts the balance in your team by quite a lot. In solo queue she's generally not defended enough to be effective, though her gun hits way harder than most people think.

But there's no reason to pick her over the other healers. Zenyatta can heal from any distance, and discord orb is a death sentence for tanks. Lucio will always be overpowered with his speed and being the only AoE healer. And I don't even need to talk about Ana, who can actually outheal a Mercy.

All of which use their ults at the start of a fight. And can take care of themselves. Mercy has to be protected, and you have to hope she doesn't get gibbed at the start of a fight or her ult is worthless. She's the least picked healer in top play by a fairly wide margin now

Zen's heals are weak enough that the increased range is of questionable benefit.

Lucio's AE heals are countered by proper focusing, though his speed boost is too good on too many maps.

Ana has a slightly higher skill cap than Mercy, but that's why she's used in the higher ranks more than the lower ranks. The better you are, the more useful she is.

Mercy requires more investment from the rest of the team, but the return can absolutely be worth it. It's just that in high skill teams you're likely to have a Lucio/really good Ana combo, or maybe a Zen/Ana combo for damage output.

Well I'm shit at the game so I'll just take your word for it then

I don't get it

Lock Nes Monster.

[Freyera]

Lock Nes Monster.

Oooh

I was like

Monster Nintendo Lock what

[Rokom]

Oh that would be awesome golden then I guess I could put some of the tax money to a new CPU and some better ram.

Quick reminder that if you get a new CPU, you would also need a new Motherboard. With $1200 though, you could pretty much buy the parts to build a new tower. What's your current system?

[Freyera]

Overwatch is ruined by great snipers

I guess 'ruined' is a really strong word

But disorganized QMs are totally dominated by whichever team has the better sniper

Or the better Symmetra right now*

- - - Updated - - -

And just out of curiosity, I checked the global hero pick rate. Symmetra is the #1 highest win rate character now in both QM and Comp, one by 3%, the other by 5%.

Don't have the specs on hand would have to look it up when I get home from work.

Super Bowl is soooooooon

Yay. Go not-Patriots.

[Freyera]

Yay. Go not-Patriots.

Agreed, though I feel they are the better team
