I think you guys are all just on the natural upswing of the meat-conveyor we call the crappy SR system in Overwatch... sure it could be the patch, or maybe following the big glut of losing streaks you were talking about a week or so ago you're now getting it back. Time will tell
After being stuck at 2750 for 100 or so games, I have gone from 2700 to 3285 in 2 days solo que. It has completely changed the game for me, Im loving it now it's back to brig brawls and stuff, lots more different comps now and knowledge of what beats what seems more important.
Before the patch it was very hard to carry with my favourite characters so I was just hard stuck 2750.
I've being saying that Brig would be a big winner from the new patch, not just for her own armour buff, but also because she gives out armour. Am I correct in thinking she did not get a shield nerf when the others did?
Yeah the armour buff actually buffs brig in 4 different ways and before patch double shield Brig couldnt get close enough to get a hit to switch the healing online.
Her shield is still 200hp which isn't much but it's more effective now with the new metas.
