I finally gained enough confidence to cosplay D.Va last week! ^_^

Jeff Kaplan: Reaper is absolutely central to the game’s story. We’re excited to reveal more about his world view and who he is as a person. Sorry that these things take time to develop. We’re moving as fast as we can.

I perfectly timed my Moira fade to out play this mccree who was tea bagging our tracer.

Disciplinary Action: Taimou, TaiRong, Silkthread, and xQc

Can we see a sign in OWL that says "Let D.Va's Mech Crouch"?!

Posted: 09 Mar 2018 09:47 AM PST

I thought I'd add my own idea on here. These signs are a revolutionary movement

Mei's reload is OP.

The Fact that xQc has always used Trihard 7 needs to be addressed by OWL, and the ban should be explained recognizing this.

Posted: 09 Mar 2018 03:18 PM PST

By the way I see no chance of this post not being taken down, but I really hope we can start a discussion about this.

If you aren't aware, xQc was banned for (among other reasons) posting an emote in the Twitch chat 'Trihard' and then a 7. This emote is used by many bad people in Twitch whenever they see a black person on stream, because the emote is black, but it is also used as a greeting when paired with a 7, the 7 being like a saluting hand. xQc sent Trihard 7 when a black caster (Malik) was on screen, which he claims was coincidental, but he was banned. It seems pretty clear that it was coincidental, because He's been using it on the OWL channel since Jan 12th, which was the 2nd day of the OWL. Malik wasn't even brought on for a month later. See this log.

The main issue in my opinion is how Blizzard has not addressed this point in the enforcement and explanation of their ban. It may very well be justified, but they have a responsibility to fully explain this to avoid over penalizing in case there was a poor judgement call. http://tab-bot.net/overrustlelogs/overwatchleague/xqcow

One Reaper shot away from death, and then... (Satisfying Widow 4k)

Someone on /r/OverwatchUniversity said to stop running away from Genji Blades and enemy ults. I took their advice.

BUG: Brigitte passive healing gets blocked by stairs (crosspost /r/BrigitteMains)

Posted: 09 Mar 2018 01:34 AM PST

And probably by other vertical map geometry, too.

I made a bug report about this on the PTR forums a week ago and it hasn't been fixed yet, I don't think anyone even read the report honestly. Here's a link to my original bug report.

You can easily test this bug by going into a custom game with two friends or into the practice range. Stand on a staircase and have an ally stand on the platform above the stairs. If you now hit an enemy, Inspire will not be applied on your ally, even if they are in range of your passive and even if you have line of sight to them and can target them with your Repair Pack.

Standing on the stairs and hitting an enemy won't heal the allied bots

Comparison image of standing on top of the staircase, healing is applied

There's also some wonkiness with standing on a high ground as Brigitte and having your allies be on the ground below you. It seems you have to be standing right on the edge of the platform if you want your allies to get tagged by your passive.

Standing right on the edge, healing is applied

Take a step back, no healing

I feel that a bug like this will make Brigitte much worse on maps with lots of stairs and verticality, say something like point A of Numbani. If anyone would like to test and document this further it would be much appreciated, I don't have friends to try this stuff out with.

All these OWL sign requests met and not ONE “Give Junkrat Mittens”??? For shame!

Posted: 09 Mar 2018 06:45 AM PST

Sure he may try to explode you with spamming mines but he's very sincerely asking for a pair in Russia. We can have Zen walk but not give the Aussie some mittens? For shame, OWL fans!!

If Pharah was realistic

Posted: 09 Mar 2018 08:07 AM PST

As some people might have noticed, the hover jets on Pharah's suit aren't aligned with her center of mass.

Assuming they are the only source of thrust, they would throw her into an uncontrolled somersault whenever they are fired because they're positioned too far back. I think the coding team must have misunderstood the art team when they saw the suit's design. Clearly, it was never intended to fly.

My proposal is to remove Pharah's hover jet, jump jet, and barrage abilities. Instead, pressing Q would cause her to curl up and roll around much like Sonic, essentially turning her into a Rip-tire for several seconds. This would make up for the lost mobility caused by removing her original abilities. Running into enemies would deal blunt impact damage, and set them on fire (because of the hover jets firing wildly). Of course, you would have to add sounds; something along the lines of pots and pans being run over by a locomotive. Because Pharah is spinning rapidly, her voice lines would need a sort of "vibrato" effect; think, "jUsTicE mOvEs sWifTLy!"

I sincerely hope Blizzard is willing to consider my suggestions to improve the realism of Overwatch. Thank you.

Edit: (in case it wasn't obvious, this post is 100% a joke)

Here's a 3D print of Reinhardt I made today. 10cm of Honor and Glory! Sorry if a little blurry--shot through a 1-way mirror that distorts things a little.

Ultimate name change concept.

Posted: 09 Mar 2018 12:52 AM PST

Soldier is a Hero who gets picked a lot especially by new players. I see there is a lot of misunderstanding what his ultimate (Tactical Visor) is and will therefore never use its full potential in literally every Elo.

I would give it a new name: Summon Dva. Why? bEcaUSe eVeRY TimE I uSE tHaT ULt, a f****** dVa aPpEaRs aNd bloCkInG mY sIghT!!!
