The DC punishments are severe. Sudden Death is a terrible mechanic. Healing support doesn't get the same kind of credit that DPS or tanks can get. Not having a solo queue and grouped queue separate is a bad idea.

I was playing a ranked capture map and everytime on defense we'd get a Zenyatta and a Symettra and no tanks. I could either be the healer and 3rd support or be the tank. It was a nightmare. Only time I was ever happy to be on offense in Overtime. Because as bad as we were, the enemy team was somehow worse.

Probably just going to stick with Quickplay if I solo queue.

Finally got a third legendary skin at level 52. And it's one of those wolf Hanzo skins. I guess this means I have to join those guys.

I got 4 legendary skins so far and 3 of those were Ultraviolet Tracer. Which would be the worst skin in the game if it wasn't for Zarya and Mei skins.

Rez is such a great ability. I've been practicing using it more aggressively, a couple games earlier I used it too early but this match every rez was an excellent rez.

Me too poops, but support was always going to be the first added and I want an omnic to have a different role.

Snipeheal looks like it will be super hard to play, is a ranged class with 2 medium range abilities, those abilities look super useful though, preventing healing holy hell. She's going to wreck turrets, bastions and other healers.

I just hope they don't intend on releasing one hero at a time. They really need to do it batches of 3.

sorta related but your boy Zenyatta is getting buffed.
"Zenyatta is getting a little more shields, and he goes a lot faster when he uses his Ultimate.

They should make Bastion an actual tank. Omnics are best fosho

Also they should make an Australian who isn't a villain. Racism

I played Ana, Reinhardt (No changes), Mercy (Some minor ult mechanic changes and damage boost damage boosted) and Zenyetta in the test realm.

Zenyetta is really, really good right now. He's a tank buster that can heal and has an ult that pretty much gives him invincibility. I think they must have buffed his healing by a lot too, I was struggling to keep up with a teammate Zen when I was healing as Mercy.

Reinhardt synergies extremely well with Ana, in addition to just being able to go ham with the boost, when she sleep darts someone they become really easy to charge into a wall.

Ana is really cool, but the lack of mobility means you don't get to go to those cool sniper perches.

Zenyetta and McCree might be too powerful right now. McCree got near sniper damage and near sniper range without a nerf to his RPM so its like fighting Hanzo if Hanzo had a good ult and fired twice as fast.

D.va is now hard to kill with a super good ult and lots of mobility.

Because Zenyetta, McCree and Ana are all good at killing Pharah, she's probably out of the meta which means Junkrat is probably going to back in for AoE denial.

Roadhog has so much health it's like fighting a raid boss in an mmo.

I'm starting to really like and be decent at playing Genji.

Seriously, what is up with those people over level 100? I have played at least a few matches every day since I got this game and am level 66 and I already feel like I've played it way too much.

New character is fun, D.VA finally useful. Still not sure about Zenyatta. I think he just needs a complete rework.

Olympic event has me playing again. Been playing D.va which I really never had been before and she's good now. I like Ana, and I'm getting better with her. Hitting a blinking tracer with a sleep dart feels good.

Oh I got Swedish Torbjorn so I'm happy about that. Just want swiss Mercy tho.

I imagine lucioball is to rocket league what WoW's pet system is to pokemon: a cute but not very good knock off.

Was dicking around on the PTR. New Map is going to be excellent for snipers and turrets.
