Boy did I just have a frustrating game, Ana in the game always seemed to know when I was about to jump over a wall as Pharah and had such impeccable aim.

Saw this a few days ago.

Wish I hadn't, I'm started to feel more jaded and paranoid then usual.

Excellent! Thanks to an early start this morning, I finished work a couple of hours early. Time to sneak in a few games of Overwa... UNABLE TO AUTHENTICATE.

Bum on toast. No indication when it will be fixed either.

initial look at it suggests it's going to be carnage - it's very wide open, loads of access to the control points from various angles etc. It's pretty but not sure about the likes of the cars and the jump pads - don't really see what they bring to the map

Mockingbird · 30 Nov 2016 at 10:00

Specifically the cars seem to bring a subgame of frogger.

Good luck everyone for S3, hopefully Blizzard fixed their trash rating system.

I've not been on the new maps yet, but my first thought: Jump pad - the real high noon. Will help mccree as he is slowly being pushed out of meta by soldier and upcoming symmetra buffs/rework.

lol - 1st placement game.

48 elims/38k damage/14k blocked as D Va - still lost......haha

BuzzLloydyear · 1 Dec 2016 at 02:22

This is my life in the placements so far. Playing healer only except for a very short period in this game where I was soldier because 2 healers already picked. (they switched off quick enough mind).

I am not even remotely taking this season seriously. It wound me up so much last time, not necessarily with my ranking, but the people it thought I was on the level of and it was quite frankly insulting. I'm not the best player in the world, but I can hold my own. The people it matched me up with, i'm pretty sure they just mash their face on the keyboard and whatever happens happens.

Played 6
Won 5
13 gold medals

BuzzLloydyear · 1 Dec 2016 at 04:13

Played 10, won 6, lost 3, drew 1. I got like 1910 or something, which whilst lower than my last seasons rank, it appears that I am not doing too bad for support on early readings. Lot of people appear to be ranking lower as support.

It was a lot of fun though. Never really got into Lucio properly before, but I was having hella fun. Charging the enemy Reinhardt and booping him back from his team so my team can open up on them and generally just being a giant pain in the arse.

just Scott · 1 Dec 2016 at 04:32

8-2
3149 SR
23 gold medals

Happy with that

Westie · 1 Dec 2016 at 04:46

gonna main dva a lot this season shes so fun!

BuzzLloydyear · 1 Dec 2016 at 05:54

Yeah, so I have played 5 games after ranking in at 1910. Won 4 and drew 1. I am now 2108! I am improving a lot with Lucio. I am a very active speed mode user now (barely used to use it in the past). I am starting to get the levels between speed and heal right. I am causing the enemy team a load of problems with it, it's allowing me to wrack up a fairly substantial amount of damage for Lucio and I am still healing a healthy amount.

I think I will hit the bed now. It's been a long one!
