How does /v/ feel about Pharah?
Indifferent
JUSTICE RAINS FROM ABOVE
She's underpowered tbqh
Im am legendary with her. She is op as fuck.
>>340290998
Love her.
I feel a team isn't complete without her.
I don't particularly like her, but I use her because she's one of the only heroes with splash damage. I suck with Junkrat, can't get the balls to arc right, or I can't get close enough.
>>340290998
Feels like pubbie scrubs are finding out what blue plate specials feel like.
Weak class.
Relies on enemy team being bad
Is about "air superiority" but cant even really fly.
She's surprisingly weak given her abilities.
Buff when?
>>340291148
JUSTICE RAINS FRO- UGH
>>340291293
with junkrat on defense it doesn't matter where you shoot, just shoot and never stop shooting
>>340290998
She's kinda shit honestly.
Hitscan is very strong in this game, and she's got pretty low HP and she's slow.
I want to like her, but unless i've got a mercy up my ass it's hard to stay offensive, you have to play her very cautiously and attack from angles they don't expect until they start looking up.
She'd be better off if some of her health was converted into shields
>>340291530
I mainly want splash damage on attack though, to disrupt their static defences. Junkrat's too inconsistent in my hands.
>>340291268
Any tips? I feel like I'm pretty good with her, but still while it's easy for me to get 3-4 gold / silver medals with characters like Tracer or Hanzo I can't say the same thing about Pharah
I want to marry her
Literally the best girl and character in all means in this game
>>340290998
I like to play the hero but it's very hard to win games with her.
>>340291447
I agree. They need to buff her before focusing on d.va.
>>340290998
Pretty weak if the enemy team is competent.
Feels surprisingly squishy.
>>340290998
she's fun until the enemy team gets a decent widow. Then fun is no longer allowed in the sky.
JUST- ugh
>>340291728
how the actual fuck can you be this big of a rat in a video game?

God fucking DAMN is this bitch getting old to play against. They dropped her bodyshot damage to 100, but that's all they fucking did. Didn't increase her charge time, didn't drop her health, didn't increase her recoil or her cooldown between shots...It still takes only two bodyshots to kill 70% of heroes
I'm salty.
She's cute.
How are you supposed to use the concussive blast? It looks real useful but i never find the opportunity to use it
I love Zenyatta's line when you kill Pharah in her ult.
>>340292094
wait, when did they drop body shot to 100 damage?
I heard there was a patch, but it didn't seem to have any balance changes.
>>340290998
Totally in fucking love.
>>340291728
One tip I always give my friends, is ALWAYS, ALWAYS try to stay in the air, moving nonstop. Never walk on the ground for more than a few seconds. Going on roofs are fine, just make sure to always stay above ground.
Try to use her concussive to push an enemy to a wall, then shoot that wall, since you'll have a higher chance to kill. It is also a good way to separate yourself from enemies.
Like Blizzard reccomends, try to hit where you think, or, if you get directly above the enemy, just aim it right at them, you'll most likely hit them.
But seriously though, best tip there is, is to NEVER stop moving as Pharah.
Oh and another thing, using her ult on one person is completely fine. Just make sure not to use it on a torbjorn turret, it will kill you faster.
>>340291736
>limbs
>>340292317
>stay in the air
That is by far the worst fucking advice
SHe's pretty good if you aerial flank and land direct hits, but gets shat on as soon as a mccree who has learned to use more than his rmb appears
Soldier 76 and widowmaker counters her hard too
>>340290998
Annoying at best in the hands of a capable player. But in friendly matches it's hilarious to bug zap her out of the sky with Winston.
>>340292137
People get fucked up by it, throws them off guard. It's useful while you're fighting anyone because you fuck up their aim. Shoot at support and tanks whenever to mess their shit up. You can also try bumping people off ledges
>>340292317
That's funny, I actually tend to stay ground based more often.
Being in the air makes you a HUGE target. Especially with how slow she is. Go aerial when you need to take someone on (especially tanks), but I try not to advertise myself to every hungry spamzo or shitowmaker on the enemy team
>>340290998
Best porn. She has the definitive fuck my ass look.
splash damage is absolute shit and no skill on her movement is needed like soldier from tf2
only "advanced" thing is press e while in the air to move about
>>340292137
It's fun to use it on cliffs. I've done it to Reinhardts who've ulted my team and is doing his charge or something. It can save lives by getting that slow Teutonic fuck away from your guys for just a few seconds.
I'm no good with her. At all. She looks like she sucks a mean cock though.
>>340292317
Good god no. No no no. If they see you coming, you're doing it wrong. If you stay in the air, they're gonna see you. The biggest catch with Pharah is that the rest of your team needs to be distracting. She does her best work looping around back during a push, or even just before a push. You could be the distraction that allows your team to push in. Just stay out of the air until you need to be there.
>>340292493
>>340292381
She dies quickly, tons of heroes are bad at hitting airborne targets. There's tons of cover even if you're airborne
>>340292094
you made yourself a target with poor choice timing. You should count yourself lucky that the widowmaker was bad and didn't just headshot you straight up.
>>340292317
>ALWAYS, ALWAYS try to stay in the air, moving nonstop.
Nigger this is awful advice. She's too squishy to do this.
>>340290998
>people never hit shit with her
>people don't use her E for movement nearly ofte enough
>people never rocketjump
>people never bully enemy widows and hanzos
Pharah is fucking great, my favourite character to play as, so much fun. but seeing other people play her makes me mad as fuck.
only thing that is kinda garbage about her is her ult, i am now high enough on levels that i can barely get a good ult off, it needs to be cancable.
basically you have to kill roadhog, widows, hanzos, mccrees and soldier 76s before even thinking of using your ultimate.
basically you ult enemy lucio mercy and reinhardt and have to keep being in the air for another 2 seconds just to wait and look at the widow/hanzo far away taking their sweet ass time to aim at your head.
anyways, most fun character in the game.
>>340292553
>splash damage is absolute shit
wich means you have to actually hit the enemy.
wich makes her hard to play.
>>340290998
Needs a slight durability buff IMO.
>>340290998
Anabuis skin is actually my favorite skin of her
Pharah needs a good amount of supporting to be 100% effective
I wish her E was more useful. It should do damage or apply a slow or SOMETHING other than knocking bitches back.
Think about how much utility a character like Junkrat has in his kit. Landmine for great close AoE and jumps. The trap is also really useful.
Pharah's E just feels a lackluster.
>>340293045
use it to knock yourself back to escape shitty situations
>>340292838
>splash damage is absolute shit
>wich means you have to actually hit the enemy.
>wich makes her hard to play.
Her direct hits do less than other classes much easier spam and pray
>>340293045
use E exclusively as a movement tool.
it's fun to use it for knocking bitches off but you barely ever have the opportunity to do so, as a movement tool her E is fucking great though.
>>340293235
direct hit is 120, no damage fall off. the damage is perfectly fine.
>>340293156
Why would you ever be in shitty situations with her kit anyways. If would much rather it be a slow orb or whatever, something you could combo making it easier to kill someone from above maybe.
Or just straight up make it knock back Rein even though his shield.
It's so fucking bad compared to other abilities, unless you play on meme maps where you can knock people out over the side.
People need to spend more time on the ground and inside closed spaces with Pharah the rockets don't need to be aimed and the self damage is more or less non-existant. Especially in comparison to the other classes that can harm themselves.
>>340293427
It*
>>340293396
120 is pretty shit when people are rocking 500hp bars.
Why take Pharah when you can take Mccre or Tracer or Soldier and be more effective?
Pharah is literally the overwatch, you need to be extremly on point at anytime and have a global sense of whats going on. Need to track every piece of info you can and use it to your advantage.
In your average random/grouped game, she's absolutlyharam.

>>340290998
>Left click
Godly, 120 direct hit rockets is the skill ceiling is crave
>Boost jump and hover
dude nice, super mobile, escape, vantage points, nice we quake now
>E
I use it but I feel like if I'd shot two rockets instead they'd be dead instead of just getting knocked around. I dont feel like this synergises with her well and while the little extra jump boost is nice it seems like a wasted ability to counter the fact that shes a mobile rocket laaunching death machine
>Ultimate
I completely misunderstood this ult and got myself killed repeatedly, this shit is for close range back assaults against a small number of choice targets. The jump ult tactic you'd expect to be most effective is just way too dangerous for you and makes the ult largely ineffective unless part of a huge team push or the enemy is otherwise totally distracted
I feel like I could not use E or Ult and still have a pretty nice time with her
I like how her playstyle is inspired by Quake.
Alot of Overwatch feels inspired by 90s shooters.
>>340292493
>Being in the air makes you a HUGE target
I almost never look up. I can't fight airborne faggots and pay attention to what's right in front of me. The common person thinks this way so his advice to stay in the air makes sense.

you're not really supposed to be the tank killer, and no tank has the range to even compete with you in a 1v1 so 5 rockets when you have 6 before reloading should be easy as fuck
>>340293427

>>340293614
Pharah is more fun
>>340291448
JUST -UGH
>>340290998
i don't have enough rule34 of her
>>340293773
She's clearly inspired by UT and quake, who the fuck even plays tribes.
>>340293990
>pic related, using shift to get around the enemy frontline is shit.
Or you could just press Shift and hold space, like it intended for it.
It's terrible design, it doesn't fit her role or kit at all. She is not made for disruption she is literally an offensive hero.
Hell, Pharah's E would be much more fitting for Winston if anything
>>340293675
Even in fucking willy waving seagull videos he gets fucking solo res'd by his pocket Mercy girlfriend.
She doesn't have any defensive abilities, her E is poop unless you can throw enemies into a pit and she's too squishy, which is just odd because she's the third(?) most well-armored character.

Which character has 'cancer ice horse up'?
>>340294004
>>340291448
Her ults useful as fuck for team wiping and clutch plays, you just need to not be a retard.
The biggest problem is people use her boost and think "oh this is great for the ult!" and boost then ult, prompting enemy snipers, or even anyone who has even medium range to just point and click you and you're dead.
Get behind them on ground level or on a ledge where they can just about see you.
If they see you pre-ult, you're already dead.
be sneaky
>>340293614
Because those two are boring to play as
People pick McCree because they love the easy kills. I admit I pick Soldier often when I can't be bothered with any of the other character's gimmick and just want to shoot Meis.
>>340294154
>Or you could just press Shift and hold space, like it intended for it.

>>340294154
E gives you a lower flying arch and a lot more momentum and speed, you will get less likely hit by widows and you are still out of range of mcree flashbangs or shit like that.
it's less about getting height but about flying real fast.
>>340294358
>this guy is only good because he's good
Good Pharahs? Amazing.
Shit Pharahs? Waste of fucking time.
Give her an alt fire mode for bigger splash damage, but only 25% damage for direct hit.
Or give her more HP as damage boosting her as Mercy is useless if Widowmaker or Hanzo spots her and can aim.
>>340294223
Are you just plain bad at video games or something? Splash damage automatically reduces skill needed. Don't get me wrong, you can get good with her, but it isn't very hard. Mastered her in like 30 mins when the game was f2p.
High skill ceiling characters are characters with fiddly and complex mechanics, shooting rockets isn't fiddly or complex and allows for basically only one playstyle.
Your game isn't as hard as you think it is.
>>340290998
Gets taken out way too easily.

I use her when the enemy team does shit like play 3 torborns bc randoms can't ever seem to figure out how to destroy turrets and her splash is pretty good for that. But yeah a good widowmaker will completely negate her.
She is the direct counter to bastion players and turrets.
Making a bastion rage switch because you keep sniping him is great

Her skins are all so good. The purple recolour, the two anubis ones, and all the legendaries. None of them are bad except maybethe origins edition one
>>340293730
other then Rockets the two aren't even comparable
Solly has second most health in tf2 where as Phara is in the second lowest tier of health
once you stop trying to play Solly it will work out better.
I like Phara as a Rein counter, easy to hit his shield and you can keep it down or make him very cautious about using it
>>340294915
Why is this allowed?
>>340294963
i feel exactly opposite for whatever reason
after years of tf2 solider was probably the class i enjoyed the least
i like playing pharah a lot
>>340294925
she's nowhere near as durable as the TF2 soldier
that guy could take a fucking beating, pharah in her full suit of armor has as much health as an autistic indian tech support wearing cloth
>>340294882
Can still pretty easily tap fire her down as a Soldier.
>>340294882
>unstoppable
Widow will still be able to oneshot her while she's slowly floating in the air, Soldier will still shoot her down all the time, and I doubt they will nerf McCree's left click so him too.
easily most fun hero to play.
>>340295041
>all those lovely skins with great designs
>the origin skin is just brown poop
>>340294949
Drastically overexaggerating. It's like the direct hit on TF2, not hard to use at all unless you have cerebral palsy.
Pharoah is literally the character you dont have to aim with and is good for clearing out people who bunch together or camp.

When you're holding the hover button with your right thumb, do you move your left thumb over to the right stick to aim?

I'm happy about her. Great character design. Nudge towards Tribes 2 players (like me). Egyptian Samus, not afraid to get her hands dirty, voiced by the lovable Romi Park in the JP version.

There is no source until the patch is released, this is going off the Blizz forums and the vague replies given by the employees. Basically they've said a number of characters will be rebalanced for ranked play, Mei will be toned down offensively, D.va buffed in some way (althought she seems fine to me besides taking headshots in a mech suit) and McCree will be rebalanced to be less perfect
>>340296074
If you ever watch seagull games he does not really objectives ever, he just straight plays TDM and kills everyone. Its his role in his shitty never won anything comp team as well.
>>340296310
i don't think mei really needs nerfs.
enough characters can play against her, and she counters some others without good escapes or range.
she also comes with a good amount of utility.
people complaining about mei are as bad as people complaining about bastion.
Play against a team with Junkrat/Reaper/Reinhardt/Mercy/Lucio and no 76/Widowmaker and you'll do great as her.
Like every single hero in the fucking game she's good against some team compositions, neutral against others, and gets countered damn hard by some others.
Knockback rocket off the map is always a comedy kill on maps where it's possible too.

Feels like a less effective junkrat. Less dps overall, slower reload and shooting. Very awkward to play without being babysat by a zarya/mercy. Too many strong characters exist right now with near hitscan weapons. Her air movement feels too slow and she feels too fragile. Wish she had more aerial speed, some shields, and maybe either faster missile speed or reload speed.
>limbs
>>340296847
I love Mei but at the moment she feels far too robust. She decimates the 200hp classes witht the freeze headshot combot while having 250HP of her own despite also having two lethal damage escapes one of which is a perfect shield that she can break out of by choice + heal + a wall in a game with a lot of chokepoints. Mei is absolutely godly. I hope they dont but I wont be surprised if she ends up with 200HP and no 'solid freeze' debuff with her left click, only a slow and turn rate reduction (which is still totally fine for landing a headshot with)
>>340296804
Balance changes for competitive, ranked mode. Nerf the least chosen character for the duration of the entire beta and since full release.

she only really counters reaper mccree and some tanks(though mostly needs 2 freezes to kill)
>>340297178
I've kinda gotten over my Mei hate but the other day we met a team on Gibraltar that had two Meis to wall off the short tunnel at the start constantly, McCree's roaming around under/over that tunnel and a Widowmaker+Pharah covering anyone trying to go over the point and flank the Meis.
It was just pure fucking cancer and a testament as to why they should not allow stacking.
>>340293675
4:46 isn't aimbot?
>>340297595
People underestimate the right click at range, it isnt that hard to aim with the hitboxes even at long range. I almost think the ice shard should be her primary fire
>>340297580
Right now nothing counters a McCree you have to hope and pray that somehow the McCree is so bad he misses all of his right click. Even getting the drop on him from behind and attempting to freeze him he still has more than enough time to turn and either Flashbang and kill or just Right click and kill because of the range anyway.
M2 from Range is how to kill McCree with Mei because the vast majority can't aim.

>tfw M2 headshots a Tracer
>>340297904
well you try to bait the flashbang with iceblock.
same as reaper baiting the flashbang with wraithform.
20 tick makes this kinda hard though.
but in theory mei should kill mccree at any range.

you're either from reddit or you're just trolling
She does everything junkrat does but better if you have aim and situational awareness. Gets shit on by hitscan weapons though
>>340297816
Genjis dash passes through enemies so you know hes always going to go a set distance, he also hangs in the air kind of because theres no decent when dashing forward in the air. He knew because the genji dashed right through him if he turned around and shot he wouldnt miss
>>340297529
You must play against some real scrubs
>>340298532
Junkrat has the benefit of not having to peek to deal damage and bear trap is great for Tracer/Genji/McCree
She's fun but unfortunately her hard counters are the most popular characters.
>>340290998
she's too slow in the air
>>340298689

use it to boost yourself around and blast people off the edge
>>340292838
>people never bully enemy widows and hanzos
your an easy target for widow
>people never rocketjump
what's the point when you barely keep momentum?
>>340298738
I enjoy playing junkrat more and I'm much better with him, don't get me wrong. But in a competitive environment pharah completely replaces him as making an bear traps are normally killed off instantly and the displacement rocket can cause absolute chaos if placed correctly. I'd rather have a knockback either way which junkrat does have but his is fairly short range. They play the same purpose but junkrat is easier and better in low level randoms where pharah is harder and more useful in higher level games
>>340292137
consider it your second boost, you use it when you use jump to engage and realise things are just too spicy for your delish brown ass you use the blast to push yourself and enemies away to give you a quick escape, practice knocking yourself back first, then work on the map awareness and start pushing yourself behind walls and enemies out of cover with it, you should be able to pop a tank into the air and get a few solid direct hits out of it while they're disorientated
>>340298532
I disagree junkpills fire faster, reload faster, and people can still take full damage from a grounded pill if they hit it. You can pepper an area from cover safely and randomly get kills and blow up turrets easily. Pharah has less shots and you needs to be in the air to be the most effective, otherwise be junkrat.
Plus c4 > concblast since it does the same thing plus 100 damage or so.
>>340299134
Pharah is offensive
Junkrat is defensive
there's no reason to consider them contenders for the same role
>>340290998
Quake Slut
>>340290998
Rocket Launchers in old FPSs are my favourite weapons to use so she's naturally the character I have the most fun with, it always feels good to land direct hits, specially against other Pharah's who are trying to do the same to me.
Also she's best girl, but she does need a little buff either to her speed while in the air, her rocket speed or a bit of her health should be replaced with amor, nerfing Widowmaker's bodyshot damage would also help.
>>340299289
This. If you are going to compare them in terms of dps then rat does way more and doesn't need to show his face to even do it
>>340293990
This is the most retarded thing I've seen.
Widowmaker hardcounters pharah. Hitting her in the air is just so easy.
She really isnt an anything killer.
>>340299226
I should add you really want to stick close to buildings and walls while you're flying not just for cover but also so you can use this to get away fast.
It's a real decider when it comes down to whos a better pharah in duels and surviving being seen by Widowmaker
>>340299134
>competetive
You mean where 2 McCree's will shoot her down in 2-3 shots?
>>340299063
>your an easy target for widow
depends heavily on the map.
i find great success in specifically targeting widowmakers as pharah, cause once they are gone the whole map is your playground.
especially on hanamura or something like that.
also whoever thought that putting 2 big med packs to the left of the main gate (from attacker side) was a good idea is a fucking idiot.
Pharah
Is
Best
Mum
Pharah is the most beautiful OW girl, this is fact.
She could use a slight buff though, increased air mobility would be nice since actually flying makes you a giant target with 200 health.
>>340300089
why did someone feel like this needed to be made?
>>340300218
better get used to this face nigger its going to be the definitive D.Va on /v/ forever
>>340292553
her movement is more skill-based than soldiers
for instance, you need to know when to never use it because you move at a snails pace in the air despite having a fucking jetpack which makes you a big fat target asking for death
and there's lots of skill in just changing hero when they have a widowmaker player
>>340291791
She's fine the way she is. How does she need a buff in any form?
>>340290998
i wish she had more health, or armor or something
the amount of unfunny tumblr level memery this shit game has spawn is phenomenal

That doesn't answer my question, anon.
Is this a forced OTP or is there some actual basis on it? I remember Blizz said one of the girls was 100% lesbian, but didn't say who.
>>340299331
If you actually go by the "categories" you're a shitter and should uninstall.
They're the most ass backwards shit blizzard has ever come up with.
Junkrat fucking ruins some maps on koth and attack where pharah is much better suited for certain points on defense.

she's samus with a jetpack.
Is there any better feeling than successfully rooting out and killing Widowmakers and Hanzos as Pharah.
