Overwatch

Thanks I will save some potg then get a few together and upload.
Most the ones I get with brig are grav combo's but I won't upload any of them.
 
Nice, I love rein potg.

Very effective clean up afterwards. It wasn't until this season that I actually learned not to charge after earth shatter.

I had a good run on team mates this season in solo que but early hours of this morning had people literately throwing game after game (not leaving spawn etc), very frustrating!!!

The avoid team mate is such a great feature I'm so glad it's there now at least I can go in the next match knowing I'm not getting same guy.
 
Just got my account suspended for disruptive gameplay. I have 16 hours in competitive this season with 60% winrate, 2700SR. I pick Torbjorn 100% and I play to win. Despite people hurling abuse and trying to throw the game for me, I'm still climbing SR. Win or lose, 3 golds or 4 golds, they still report the Torbjorn. I would rather play another game than have to play another hero. Now I'm getting my chance. What a toxic playerbase this has become
 
Yeah this is a problem. Just last week my son was complaining about a teammate playing Torb on attack... I pointed out that the guy wasn't going to change and might be best with Torb even on attack if he one-tricks, so accept and be supportive... Torb got POTG and played really well, and my son actively congratulated him at the end... Lesson learnt!
 
i would only report if it wasn't really working and the Torb was ignoring everyone or simply saying they wont change, as in many cases it doesn't make a lot of sense on attack. You lose 40% of the time and you're not prepared to change, I can imaging that would annoy some tbh.
 
Torb is great is some situations and terrible in others why would you choose to keep playing him 100% every situation?

If you are throwing the game people are going to get upset.
 
My account has been silenced twice now, once for 6 hours and then currently for 6 days... Abusive chat...

It's not entirely untrue although I would say it's more like mild banter verging on slight harassment (e.g. if the other team are a bunch of obvious smurfs talking **** while crushing everyone, I might ask them if they got alt accounts because they got sick of being so badly beaten at their true ranks)... Or occasionally bemoaning the terrible matchmaking when the game is one-sided (both when it favours me and when it doesn't) - turns out people get really defensive and butthurt when you suggest that perhaps all of us gold/plat players aren't great at the game and the matchmaking plays a big role in who wins...

I just can't help myself!
 
I have had really good season and really enjoyed it and I got to 3487 a couple of nights ago, so I got within one game of masters. Playing in diamond I have been learning a lot this season about positioning and when to attack when to run etc and it's easier for me to tell where I'm going wrong.

I have dropped a bit today had a few bad games and before I got off I accidently quit 1 second before my match ended and lost 50sr lol.

The hardest thing to fight against seems to be the zarya rein combo so powerful this season.

I played more this season than any other already have like 150 hours on brigitte.

Zarya + Rein combo being strong... sounds like the meta has come full circle! Adding Brigitte to this combo certainly makes it more potent. You said that you have learned a lot this season... any notable tips that you can share with us plebs in Gold?

For the brigitte the first thing to learn is the one shot tracer combo, it does the maximum amount of burst damage. You shield bash into melee quickly cancelled in to whip shot, this does like 150 damage in less than second and this is the go to combo anytime you attack someone.

Second thing with brig is hug your tanks just stick side by side with rein or zarya and it's really hard for anyone to kill you, just don't do your own thing just stay with them all times.

In general the things I learned are stuff you probably know but I just seen how important they are this season like staying grouped and only attack when it's a winable situation. For example if 2 of your team mates died before the fight has even started just wait for them to respawn. Or if half your team dies quickly in big fight just die quickly and regroup back at spawn.

The other thing seems really important is combo ults, it's so easy to take a capture point with a grav hanzo ult. Also I learned with ults not to use them if your losing a fight, it seems much better if your losing a fight just to die regroup and go back in with 6 men then ult when your all alive ready to take full advantage of it.

Also I learned how important character switching is and what to swap to what situations,
For example if im playing brig on attack and we can't get near first point and we have 3 heals I would swap the brig to a rein or monkey for some extra pushing power.
But if we were attcking and only had 2 heals and it clearly wasn't working I would swap the brig for a mercy or Lucio.

The other thing with character switching is contesting in overtime I started switching to lucio or dva in overtime just to get the contest.

I learned a lot about positioning like never overextending also pulling back when you are losing a fight and pushing in when you are winning a fight.

Also if you have someone overextended on your team sometimes it's better to just leave him to die than die yourself trying to help them.

So it's all basic stuff really it's just much clearer to me now what to do in what situation.
