I'm trying to get to 2k rating. I'm old so that would be an achievement. 200 points to go...
Still in plat. Havent had the time to really play. Using Mercy more now as my sub main. My main is Lucio
Main reason is the guys I play with are good, but seem to think 1 support can cut it.
Gold is horrible. I honestly preferred Silver, there was much higher quality matches going on there.
Queuing anytime after midnight has proven to be the most unproductive time of the day to play for me. There's less toxicity in Dzerzhinsk, Russia than OW solo queue when all the kiddies are out shitting up everyone's games. I was a game away from Diamond and dropped 200 rating with a string of easily winnable losses.
- Christopher HitchensPopulists (and "national socialists") look at the supposedly secret deals that run the world "behind the scenes". Child's play. Except that childishness is sinister in adults.
4 people on the point, non of them contesting the payload for the length of the entire room... Enemy team won just as i did a full team wipe with my junkrat. on the last 10 seconds...just. urgh.
Diamond season 3, high plat after placements, will try to push to masters once i can stop playing Zelda.
Came back from the game after a break, a quick play match against high elo 6 stack versus all pugs. Good work, really fun.
Here was a level 85 Enhancement Shaman. Now there is just an epitaph.
The greatest of plays.

We took Point A pretty quickly, one of our team left, and then everyone else left for round 2. This, was round 2 basically. I'm really starting to not like Gold. But QP is full of dreadful Orisas.
Hey, I did a thing with her. And by "did a thing", I mean, "got a play of the game by dropping her ult".

Every game since the patch. We have hitscan heroes who are just letting their Widow kill every-fucking-body. Also, this is literally every game. I don't know why.

That game we had a Winston, still dominating Widow
The trick is to be the amazing Widow. Had a team the other night literally take it in turns as Widow to try to deal with me. They failed. Carried another game last night too. Shame I'm not that consistent, and can only seem to manage 1 or 2 games a night like that
Both were on Anubis defence actually, after getting rolled off Point A because bad Orisa.
Oh I know, but it takes dedication some people don't have. :P
I love seeing the enemy team hero shuffle, they start off with hero X, then I kill them and they go on Widow, then I kill them and they go to genji, then I kill them and they try Winston (who does work pretty well TBH) etc.
I had a great Widow game where they had a really aggressive Lucio on Oasis with the point with the pit in the middle, he came all up on our side and started shooting me, thinking running back and forth = safety. I killed him, then he went on Tracer and tried a few times and I killed him some more (with a few really satisfying headshots on the moving Tracer), then he went on Genji and I kept killing him, and then he left the game.
I think that's a mistake in QP. A lot of the premades suck ass.

Mercy gains less SR than she should and lose more SR than she should.
This is because of the new card she can get for damage boosting other players. This card also seem to be showing up way too much.
Oh, you damage boosted 300 damage? Here, have a card! Nevermind the 20k healing you did.
This is true, I'll tab to check and leave if they're on my side. They're invariably terrible/drunk/high/completely taking the piss. They're not worth your 10 minutes.
And I think I'm done with comp now, every match is a ridiculous stomp one way or another, there's no semblance of balance at all in Gold; the whole concept of there being an MMR just doesn't exist there. Then people would rather you play a hero you've not touched in 2 months than make a sensible pick themselves. No one wants to pick anything that'll counter Pharah. No one wants to actually deal with Tracer at all. The whole thing is a train wreck worse than Route 66.
The one 'up side' is that teams will let you pull this kind of shit off: https://gfycat.com/OffbeatConsiderateJunebug But then you still don't win anyway, because they were like that because they were working together, meanwhile your team, well, even with everyone dead can't get on the payload to keep it going at max speed because they all want to flank. Amazingly, none of this happened at 1800.
as a support main
my favorite thing ever is seeing a three or 4 stack.... and all of them going DPS
I literally fucking hate this game at the moment.. Why would you lose on purpose? What the fuck is the point of your life if you troll pick Genji on def and get carried by your team, you then decide your utter useless fucking play isn't enough so you will go mei on attack and ice wall your team in when they are about to win? Not only did their team have 1 of their team leave so it was 5 v 6 so I'm like finally a game I can win, no the fucking blizzard twats stick me with this guy who decides to do everything they can to lose.
Why are 60%+ of my games like this? It is like I am cursed, if I win a game I am guaranteed the next one to get some sort of imbecile whose simple objective is to fail at life.
Some people are trying to tank their rating to play with friends because they outranked them. It's dumb and there needs to be a way to do this without harming your team. I was against a 3 stack in comp last night and their Winston would just sit randomly in the middle of the map. When asked what he was doing he said "Excuse me for a moment while I finish my peanut butter." We got the win against them but it was stupid.
