New Reaper buff on the PTR is...wow. Nigga has lifesteal instead of orbs. Yea I like that, I kinda feel like that makes him useful again. I had stopped seeing him in competitive. I don't like the Roadhog nerf, but hope that it still plays well. It's basically going to get rid of a lot of his grab kills...but shooting faster seems okay. |

Thing is, with Roadhog, I feel like they'll never find the sweet spot for him and its a damn shame cause I love this baconator. I only main D.va and Lucio but I occasionally use Roadhog so I know this pain. |

Hog is a great hero, but if they do this, I think he'll fade out of competitive use. |

For some reason the only offense character I can play is Symm and she just isn't comp viable so I avoid those roles and stick to tank and support. |

I think Symm is really good in competitive depending on the map...Her teleporters are CLUTCH. |

Roadhog is a horribly designed character who is somehow more oppressive than launch McCree, I don't get the uproar over the nerfs. The ability to stun and dislocate a character every 8 seconds is still incredibly potent and he might have to (shockingly) coordinate with his team instead of doing everything himself. This last round of balance changes is the best in a long time imo.

I think the Reaper buff is fantastic news since I can see it putting Roadhog out of the meta and severely cutting into dive comps. As an Ana main, I hate dive comps. As long as my team can keep the Reaper off of me I think I'll love this new meta.

First few competitive matches didn't go well. Went 1 win, 1 draw, 3 losses. And had some really bad luck in last loss...We got put into a Route 66 game as defense...dominated really early and had a guy on their team quit...which ended the match. Then got defense on Anubis, had a Torb who didn't set anything up until after they started pushing, they rushed with little resistance...and then that same Torb lagged out 3x. We lost. Very frustrating.

I'm digging uprising. Anyone want to team up on pc i'd be down. I started a few days ago on PC. I really like it so far. It´s a hard game to get into and i suck like never before, but with some time it will work out. If you are interessted, we could change battle ids and play a few games. teddygrahams#1827 |

How's the new comp season? I haven't played in a few months and I'm getting exhausted thinking about placement matches.

Ok, so. I've only played a little bit of Overwatch. I couldn't quite get into it because it just felt like sensory overload, too much going on. Though it was kinda fun. Someone convince me to buy it, tell me what I'm missing, because I need something new between now and the Destiny 2 release.

Might be worth waiting to do placements until the end of the season since the Roadhog/McCree/Reaper changes will probably shake things up considerably. I think I might try to get mine in after the event ends but before the patch and then just stop playing competitive because it's a garbage game mode lol. |
