40 credits away from being able to buy a new Legendary skin. No clue which I want to go with, even after looking over the characters I play most often.

I think my most satisfying kill was sending D.Va's cotton candy-coloured mech (which was about to self-destruct) back to the sender as Reinhardt, and I had annihilated the opposing team when they were all caught in the explosion.

D.Va has always been my bane of existence, so you can imagine how happy I felt when that happened.

Lol. that is awesome. Its great to turn people's tactics against them.

Like Winston's punch/melee needs a buff not a reinhardt level of killing dudes but his normal punches feels like im hitting dudes with a wet cardboard.

There is no reason his big ass should be hitting as light as he does

Overwatch |OT2| We'd Recommend You Try Nerfing Bastion

I remember when he had a shield, that shit tilted me.
Bastion by himself is ok but when it becomes aggravating is when he has a Reinhardt shielding him, range characters protecting him and a healer. You really need a coordinated team to break through all of that.
I don't like playing widowmaker but when I see turret spam I say No, fuck your shit. *switches to Widow.

I agree with what you're saying except for this, and even though I don't think they're OP, I think both her and Bastion are too strong for the level of skill needed to play them, especially Bastion.
BUT, as someone who regularly reads this thread I know people are going to disagree and shout "Git gud" etc etc.

Bastion just isn't that powerful, even in casual play. There are at least seven easy ways to beat him off the top of my head -- Junkrat around a corner, Pharah ducking out and back in behind cover, Roadhog getting close, Widow sniping him, Zarya bubbling herself, Genji deflecting his shots, or just get any DPS hero behind Reinhardt.

He and Mei actually require a lot of thinking and preparation to play properly. And a lot of running away. They're probably the first characters you'll realize are super annoying at beginner levels, but not any moreso than a good Tracer, Lucio, or Winston, who can be downright infuriating.

Anyone got some funny team names for running 6 of one character? Solder:76s is definitely 'Call of Duty', and I've heard 6 Winstons called 'Detroit'

I am so UNBELIEVABLY fucking salty right now.

Okay, so, attacking on King's Row. We manage to take the point, but the payload grinds to a halt in the street, not long past the arch. We are fighting over this damn thing until there's like... a minute left on the clock? And I see one of our guys go "gg." Well, I get that, it's looking pretty unlikely. But dammit, I don't feel like giving up! So I Pharah my way around, past their tanks (Reinhardt and Roadhog) and manage to rip out their back line (Mercy and Roadhog). Suddenly, the payload is MOBILE again. Team cleans up the tanks without their healer, and it goes clear to the point, rolling over the feeble opposition the remaining two members raised. I go all "NOT DONE YET" in the chat, because dammit, that shit felt good!

We hit the checkpoint, drive through it, blow the hell out of 'em on the other side, and get past the first bend inside the factory. Only then do I get taken out, at which point I find... that asshole, swagstick (swear to god that's his name) hanging out in the spawn. Totally AFK. Well, I run back, but by that point we're pretty much solidly stopped. Put up a good fight, rack up some more kills, push the payload another couple of feet, but we're a man down in some of the hardest-fought terrain in the game. He's kicked for inactivity and his replacement shows up right when the clock hits overtime, enemy Mei drops her ult on the payload, and that's that.

God dammit.

Winston would probably be the best tank if there was any sort of coordination at all. Too many times you try to be aggressive and your team just sits back and doesn't push with you.

I know they claim that the game shipped with 12 maps, but after about 100 played matches I still haven't seen any evidence of Volskaya and Gibraltar's existence.

Played pretty much all day with Gaffers, was so much fun. It's a night and day difference between playing in groups and with randoms.

Shout out to Rhaknar, Joek, Zemme, Zero, FeD, Tovarisc (Mercy MVP <3), Fulcrum, Cybit and all the other dudes

That is pretty impressive. Gibraltar is probably one of my most played maps and I've played Volskaya plenty.

Depends on where they are stationed, in a lot of maps there is always a chance to come from behind.

So essentially what you're saying is you don't like an actual team working together correctly and needing the same to counter? lol

Dude, a team working together should need a coordinated team to beat them.
