By Dark PhaZe Go To PostMy McRee is starting to get pretty good. The damage fall off fix really really did the trick.Like Hanzo's ult, it's pretty much usually only good for scattering the team off a point.
…Problem though is that nobody is taking an L to that ult anymore. Minus something like a mei or Zarya ult, I can't get a successful multi kill to save my life. If its not Reinhardt blocking the damage its everyone else scattering under storm drains.
I don't really have any nor am I completely sure if there should be a solution but yea..
It's probably at it's best zoning now, but if you coordinate, you can get kills with it. If they're behind a Rein shield, just walk behind yours and let it lock-on 100%, drop theirs, and let your team start to clean up.
You know your team is lulz when everyone is shooting at a dude and you're still hitting someone for a huge majority of the damage.
Good god

By Dark PhaZe Go To PostStarting to main Rein lately.A good rein will win you so many stages.
Too many people pick him and are REALLY terrible with him. Just have no patience. feel like they have to be mashing keys.
Patch Notes - 7/26/16
HERO BALANCE UPDATES (I'm only posting part of the update)
Ana
-Biotic Rifle
Rate of fire increased by 20%
Magazine size increased from 8 to 10
McCree
-Peacemaker
*Primary Fire
Damage falloff range decreased by 10 meters
Damage falloff amount is unchanged
As a result, even with this change, McCree’s effective range is still higher than it was at launch
-Alternate Fire
Rate of fire increased by 15%
-Flashbang
Recovery time (i.e. the amount of time before McCree can fire again) decreased from 0.5 seconds to 0.35 seconds
-------------
Happy with the Ana change.
McCree's range definitely needed dialing back a touch. We'll see how it fares in the wild now though.

By giririsss Go To PostA good rein will win you so many stages.

It's crazy how bad some guys are with him. Particularly learning this as an enemy Rein, and many guys have no idea what to do when I make it a focus to take them out. It's super easy to bait them into a pin attempt and end up hitting them with the counter pin, slash, and e combo.
Starting to really understand my damage potential offensively as a Rein too. He's maybe the best character in the game for Mercy revives too--as you can time a pin for the moment of vulnerability after a res without giving the enemy any time to really react.
By DY_nasty Go To Postjust saw a team kill high noon for the win what is life even about
like roaches into the wall cracks when the lights turn on whenever I high noon
By data Go To Postcancerous dvas all over quick play. like 4 or 5 in every gamehaven't found that.
I've been getting one a game.
What's been more annoying is seeing bad pairings in competitive on my team. genji + tracer.
Or Pharah picked against a team running McCree, Bastion, Reaper, D.Va, Rein.
my first playing with mcree
out here sniping widowmakers lol. i should've been playing with mcree ages ago. he is my stand

I instinctively don't trust certain character choices to do shit other than pad their kd and fuck else.
By Tea Go To PostI instinctively don't trust certain character choices to do shit other than pad their kd and fuck else.I have no problem with the 4th player to finally pick Reaper after others filled positions. But holy shit do you know you've already lost when the lobby has just been created and two immediately choose a flanker.
i was extremely disrespectful last night
nothing makes the enemy more shook than getting pin combo'd to three consecutive deaths by rein
that shit is so personal

Yeah........ :(
By Dark PhaZe Go To Postpretty sure lucio + zen is the new meta
It certainly is in competitive
gotta love people who argue for shit comps
the bastion and torb comp when facing off against a mcree, widow and pharrah ftw
and im stuck as lucio to just watch the massacre

I just want team mates that realize flanking is a possibility. I keep getting teams that all just chill together and use no other parts of the map. Sitting ducks.
I think my win ratio is so bad despite my stats being good ugh.

Had my best performance last night -- don't think I've ever seen anyone get 5 golds in a match before actually.
By Dark PhaZe Go To Postzenyatta?Yep, mostly! I did a little Torb first since we had no builders but then I switched to Zen who is my primary character now. That Overbuff site says I am in the 99th percentile on medals with him apparently although I've only played 27 games with him so my sample size is pretty small, haha. 1.7 gold, .93 silver, .96 bronze per game.
By Tea Go To PostI just want team mates that realize flanking is a possibility. I keep getting teams that all just chill together and use no other parts of the map. Sitting ducks.It is a skill to lead and communicate to pubby teammates how to win and have them respond positively. A very, very difficult skill.

Flanking is certainly possible. But it's really not a solo activity. Outside of tracer, the other flanker is really only genji. And genji's real utility only comes out when playing with your team.
Tracer can get away with being solo more than Genji just because of survivability (and spamability).
Even most of the pro's say the same on stream when people ask them why they're not playing genji more in solo-q.
By Kibner Go To PostIt is a skill to lead and communicate to pubby teammates how to win and have them respond positively. A very, very difficult skill.It can not be consistent. Some people just can't be reached. And a match is so brief, there's little chance. It's even worse here because people speak different languages...

In quick... i really stop caring.
In comp tho......
You don't even have to flank from behind though, which you can also do with reaper in pubs, you just have to realize that there are different map avenues to the same place, angles to take so you can cover and even vertical spaces to capitalize on. I get the team that just rolls up to or behind the payload in the most exposed way and I just sigh.
As the healer a majority of the time. I know.
There's so little i know about a lot of the maps cause i'm stuck in certain places.
Trying to play more dps classes in quick play to be a better healer. BUt yea.....................

I would have gotten this on PC if I had anything decent, but had to settle with PS4. You definitely can do a lot of cool movements with PC and better reaction times to stuff. Don't have the highest sensitivity on so it does feel slow compared to the PC gameplay I've seen from people
Wouldn't mind double dipping in the future

By Tea Go To PostI think getting this on ps4 was a huge mistake.
it's never too late to come to the winning team.
Its a shame how little I play mcree. I'm a beast with him. Feel compelled to play support and keep these shit pubs in it.

How did you miss out on the McSkill, McRightClick, McWidowmaker eras? McCree is still lots of fun though.
I wish I was more consistent with him. Some days, I'm landing headshots without trying. Other days, I'm not hitting a damn thing.
Sad, but true. lol
Weight lifting Zarya looks amazing. Should have already been in the game, instead of the goth ish she has now. >:/

im also damned good with tracer too i can just never commit to playing with her because i feel like it puts a lot of stress on my team (i never trust my team basically)

By reilo Go To PostI'm kinda annoyed at myself that I haven't picked this up. I really wanna play it on PC.Only $40 over here, brah.
I should be getting a lot of time in the game this coming week and weekend thanks to Quakecon. Always fun to play games there face-to-face with people I usually only know from online.
