As much as it absolutely pains me, I have to agree with Metro.

Overwatch is shit, and anybody liking it, should automatically be barred from entry to the KODEX. It's banal boring popamole shooter disgusting shit.

Pub stumper hero stumping pubs, news at eleven.
I'd wager 60-70% of the playerbase is doing random/pub matches. Why anyone thinks it's a good idea to balance games around a fraction of the community is beyond me.

Way to go agreeing with the biggest idiot on the Codex. No wonder you got your dumbfuck tag. Saying things like "herp derp, if you like a game I don't like you should be banned from the Codex" is the most retarded things you can say.

You should be barred from the Codex for being a creepy pervert.

He picked the most boring character and he's playing against complete noobs... Bastion is pretty easy to beat if you are not a complete idiot. And if you know the map. The game was released yesterday, so don't expect much.

On a side note, I'm pretty sure Blizzard did some crap with the Lootboxes, I'm getting shit compared to the beta.

Correct term would have been noob stomp hero.
Regardless, balancing for high skill organised play seems to work mighty well for Valve.

Wait, people are having trouble with bastions? That camp in the same spots or - god forbid - the noobing platform on volskaya?

Must be kwan servers.

For once, I must agree with the general Kodex Konsensus, it looks really boring.
Well, the world is full of Blizzard fanboys, I suppose that there will be always an active community for this game.


The enemy outlines behind the walls is retarded as fuck.


The enemy outlines behind walls is the special ability of widowmaker. It charges when she deals damage, so a decent widowmaker can use it with a few minutes in-between. It lights enemies up for the team for 10 seconds.

It's a pretty solid ability, but seldom as spectacular as a good mercy, d.va, Junkrat or Pharah ult

Too early to say how many people stick with it. ATM I got ~50 people on my battle.net friends list and there are 15+ of them playing overwatch at any given time I check.

It's quite fun to stomp pubbies as a 6-man. Voice comms and coordinating ultimates is super stronk, and pubbies just fire theirs all Willy-nilly

Wyrmlord waifu is top troll when you rush enemy spawn



Got a respawning McCree and Genji too before they wisened up. By then, we had tellyporter and sentries at point A. They never got to the payload :3

Nice!

Today I learned Roadhog works great with Symmetra's turrets. I'm also starting to think what would happen with 2 Symmetras in the same team, never tried it, but the damage from the turrets would be just insane... And it's always nice to have a second teleporter if the first one is blown. It might work with the right team, I'd try it sometime to see how it goes.
