Overwatch

Meta will change for sure with Hammond. Been playing more Zen recently and getting some decent compliments from others about playing him well. If he's left alone in the back line to heal and discord he's a monster at long range.
There is nothing more satisfying in this game than peaking around a corner and unleashing a fully charged volley of Zen balls right into a Widowmaker's face!
 
Maybe I'm just at an awkward rank or something then because for me it honestly feels like the majority of games one team had absolutely zero chance... (for instance the amount of games where one of the teams can't even leave their spawn the whole match)

Edit: of course it'll never be perfect, but that's true of lots of other competitive games and they manage to do a bit better than this

The problem with playing in the low ranks (below diamond) is that you get so many people who only play their "main" character(s), and therefore you're at the mercy of whether your team's mains work well together or at least better than the other team's mains.

That's why there are so many one sided games. The MMR is close enough on both teams, but the team composition is completely random as people have such a limited pool of characters that they can/want to play with.
 
Just played against the best widow I've ever seen......I've played 100's of hours and this widow was unreal......completely ruined our team on attack.....Kings Row. Totally dominated. Must have been a smurf account as they account only had 12 hours total widow play time. Honestly unreal....simple couldn't counter her at all with all the changes we tried everything. Either that or hacks! one or the other!! Just simple amazing head shots.
 
Probably why people been stuggling with moira last season. In description they say meta has changed and now moira isn't very good.

There seems some good info on them pages probably worth a read.

I find this strange, as Moira is traditionally a good healer for supporting tanks, and the current meta seems to be triple tank with Rein, Brig and Zarya. Anyway, I'm still better with Moira than Brig.

Moira doesn't have much a place because Mercy is op and Zen is the only one that stops Grav/dragon combo. Although this is only really true at high ranks where comps matter much more.

See thing is in current meta with long fights and everyone grouped up moira runs out of healing energy and it's hard to build up more.

Also this meta prefers the quick kills you get from using mercy damage boost or zen discord.

But moira is getting a 20% buff to her biotic healing regeneration and mercy is getting a healing nerf so maybe things will change when the balance patch hits.

Edit: As Scott says she really doesn't have a place right now because mercy is so good.

Streaming ranked on my 2nd account at 2800 if anyone wants to watch. Probably just gonna play Widow/Mccree/Tracer or Mercy if team needs a support.

My rank has been up and down a lot this season at start I dropped to 2900 then up to 3666.

Right now I have dropped back to 3045 so if you wanna team up play some games scott let me know. My tag is GINNNNY#2449

I have only played solo this season so it be nice change.
 
My rank is trash even after winning 7/8 out of my placement matches. Not played rank since like season 3 though whereby i dropped a fair bit dueto a REALLY bad season performance.

Want to climb back into gold but doing this as mainly a support player is really hard work :(

What's your tag? Feel free to add me... uF0n#2333
 
Good run today - won 9 in a row. Up to 2701SR - Solid team comp with a great Symmetra who was spot on with teleports etc into the back line.

According to Overbuff stats - I'm ranked 390th out of 28,000 Moira players - in the top 2% world wide.

My seasons going downhill I since my controller died on me, I was at around 3550 when it broke now Im at 2850. I couldn't get same model again 'razer wildcat' so I upgraded to the newer model 'razer wolverine' and although it feels better it's a lot different to what Im used to and the sticks are a lot stiffer.

I have had a play about with the in game settings today turned everything up faster and it feels better.

Hopefully I can get a good climb on tomorrow.
 
I have a wildcat sitting in my drawer which i only use for the odd single player action game on my pc, let me know if you want to downgrade/swap ;)
