Does anyone find Hanzo to be of any use in close quarter combat? I know as a 'sniper' character that's not the point with him but in case you fight another in a close quarter combat..then what? Any tips?

 

[Demoskinos]

He's real cool, but Widowmaker just shuts him down so hard. He really needs that shield buff from symmetra or armor pack from tor so your not terrified of moving in her territory.

Yeah, he's basically a free kill for her. Tracer at least has her blinks to make Widowmaker earn that kill Zen just plods along at a pretty average pace with a fairly wide hitbox and enough HP that a strong wind could take him out.

So I wasn't aware of this, but apparently the title was already selected.

Good Symmetra strategy.

Oh good, griefing has already started in Overwatch.

Guys complaining about randoms, just play with Gaffers. Had some great games today, all have been fun. There are no situations where people stubbornly stay with their first pick if it doesn't work with the team

That's impressive. How much do you get for a duplicate of a legendary skin?

Edit: Does anyone know if damage boosting as Mercy boosts ultimates and DOT things like Widowmaker's mine?

Shoot a scattershot at their feet if they get close to you. It one-shots some characters.

At the feet? hmm ok I'll try that. Thanks

 

[DrArchon]

So whats the best way to attack point B in Temple of Anubis? Every time I'm on the attacking team we pretty easily get to point A and take it, but then we get completely shut down going after B, usually because of some combination of Hanzo/Widowmaker and Bastion/Torbjorn. I've tried leading charges as Reinhardt, but that doesn't work in pub games where 9 times out of 10 my teammates are too scared to follow me into the fray.

also you can just shoot arrows without charging them, can be very effective.

Hanzo is effective medium and sometimes close range (depending on who he is going up against)...the fact that his arrows are so generous and the low tick rate while doing high damage makes it very hard for me to approach Hanzo.

I see a lot of people just rapidly firing arrows if the enemy is low on health, otherwise charge it up slightly and then shoot.

Here's a new video by Kandyrew that gives a lot of informations on how to counter Mei, might be useful to watch!

I should probably specify that I mean the ground in front of their feet.

I thought it was someone at first, but ignored thinking it might have been an environmental effect since I didn't look closely lol

Always flank them, this is best done from the left side. As Reinhardt you can get a nice charge and ult in when you come from the left. Never try to go through the front unless you somehow can close the gap while in the air. Also try to just spam their position with Junkrat nades without them being able to get to you when they just camp

 

[TheBowen]

How do you use mcrees ultimate effectively. I just seem so shit at it

 

[Rhaknar]

Just found out I have Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday off work

I gotta remember you can go really far on the left side. Thanks for the tip. I almost never see that map so I'm not really used to it just yet. I love Junkrat so I'll try him out as well.

Last match I charged in with Reinhardt and stunned 5 guys with my ult, but the rest of my team was sitting back and sniping (one of them was Reaper) so we never got in.

This is hilarious.

But if someone did this, I'd be pissed. Consoles need a player rating so we can crack down on this if it happens.

 

[petethepanda]

200, which at least puts me just a few short of buying one.

 

[MGrant]

I think it's funny that getting more deaths than average gives you a green stat in the after-game report. Like, "Good job. You're getting better at dying!"

Dammit Tumblr.

 

[darklin0]

I pretty much carried three matches in a row as Zyra and eventually they decided to counter with two Zyras. xD

I hope no one ever figures out how to counter her lol.

So what's the best way to sync up with Gaf players?

 

[Haines]

Try this again.

Easiest way to find Xbox players who use a mic?

 

[Zemm]

yeah watching EsportsArena and it's pretty obvious McCree needs looking at by Blizzard.

I seem to recall you being on the fence about overwatch. It seems like overwatch managed to catch you in it's icy grip.

Spoiler

It's permanent.

 

[Two Words]

I wish levels were associated to characters. It would make tracking experience easier and be a more honest representation of team composition.

 

[Garrett Hawke]

Just got an orange Pharah skin, the white eagle one

Also got 150 credits and a dupe pose so an extra 15. Probably my best box yet

How do you get credits from items? Can I sell stuff I don't want or is it only dupe items that get converted to the currency?

Dupe items automatically give you currency when you receive one in a box. Only other way is to just out right get gold from a loot box.

You know a game is good when it causes you physical harm. My upper back / neck area is killing me today ;_;

Frekin good Tracers stress me out so much... first time I had to take a break from this game for a couple hours because of frustration.

 

[Ketch]

damn, genji is the best. 1 v 2 or 3ing and coming out alive with a kill is so good.

Can someone please explain to me just what in the fuck went on here? Apparently I killed 3 people in one blow !!! The other Hanzo and Pharah were way too far away to die from my slash.

Right when you walk under the arch you reflected hanzo's ultimate and it went back towards his base and killed some people off screen.

 

[MagicWithEarvin]

Lucio + Mercy + Reinhardt is such a great combo for escorting the payload:

Hahaha we need a skin like that for McCree
