RIP Symmetra. I don't think she needs a nerf. I understand Torb nerf (4 Torb stack on Quick Play is annoying) but the Symmetra nerf is dumb. Time to dump Symmetra from the meta until she gets a buff.

Yeah, I agree the Symmetra nerf was an unnecessary one. She wasn't a strong pick to begin with nor her turrets were a problem. Hopefully, Blizzard revert her changes as most people disagree with her nerf.

On the other hand, Mccree is stupid once again. He can actively snipe people now.

Widomaker here... I made someone cry. You can read their butthurt posts on the side there, claiming that I'm a "noob sniper" and that my team is carrying me. Kay, 27 eliminations with a 47% kill participation is I guess noob-ish.

Widowmaker is Pharah's counter, why they didn't decide to pick someone else to count me is just hilarious. I made some new friends after this match. And the person who you can hear talking is my friend, not me. For some reason my recording wasn't picking up me talking apparently.


I play on PC, Persephanie#11828 if anyone wants to play with me. I also play as a mean Zarya, Ana, Winston, Mercy, Lucio, McCree, Reaper, Tracer, and Genji.

I'm a level 90 on OW, but my competitive ranking is like 39. I think its hilarious that I'm being dragged down by players that either. 1. quit. 2. refuse to work with the team or 3. have a main like Torb and they refuse to switch off regardless of offense or defense.

It's out of control playing with randoms. "Competitive" isn't competitive unless you play with a party imo. There are too many variables to dictate your ranking otherwise. For example, back to back games I had quitters, then the third I had a Ana main lol. Lost 3 games in a row due to this. Competitive is a joke imo.

Haven't lost a match with Ana yet. Roadhogs, reapers, Trollborns, and Pharaohs beware.

Side note: I main pharaoh. Not worried about McCree. I don't dance around in the air anyway. Git Gud.

Competitive IS a joke right now. And the prize at the end is hardly worth getting anyways, I'm not even bothering with it right now. I haven't even gotten past the first ten matches you need to play in order to see where you're sitting in ranked because it's that much of a joke... Despite that I actually was on a winning team for the very first game.

I've read the complaints and it just doesn't even sound like fun. Although I do appreciate the one her per player change. It's nice that I now won't have to worry in the future of facing three Torbs, two Bastions and a Reinhardt combination.

But yes, it's annoying that there are a crap ton of players who don't understand the concept of what "teamwork" means. I used to be that person who would pick the sniper in attack at the very beginning, but then woke the fuck up and realized how much of a useless character I am for my team. However, some people think because they're "really good" with a character, doesn't necessarily mean you're being useful. Kills literally do not mean shit in this game, even if you have a twenty player kill streak going on. I've encountered several Torb players who keep saying, "I'm a good player, I main this dude. Don't like it, leave the team then" whenever someone tells them to change for Attack. Dude, all you're doing literally is building one turret and maybe shooting a few people away if they attempt to destroy it. That's not helping even if you have the turret on the payload.

This is really the main reason why I refuse to do competitive. That and the five people I usually play with aren't interested in it.

I just lost the stupidest way imaginable it was sudden death we were attacking so as a good reaper I decided to go hunt some enemies the problem is that everyone on my team did it no one pushed the payload and we lost

So I just learned that streaks matter on ranked. Win a bunch in a row and your wins will mean more and losses less for a period, the opposite goes for loss streaks. If you start tilting or get a bunch of leavers a few times in a row just leave and do some quick play for the day.

Also I have a secondary account and have been thinking about doing something interesting for a smurf. Like only playing battle mercy on placements or something, and then trying to carry myself out of the inevitable 30's.

Any other ideas?
