Kind of, more frustrated really.

Why did they have to give Pharra a fucking rocket launcher out of every single weapon in the world. Can fly, noob rocket-launcher, ridiculous splash damage and an even more annoying ultimate.

Literally No skill: the starter character.

A little. You don't really improve much by playing Overwatch. If you want to get better at Overwatch, you're better off playing TF2, CS:GO, or Quake.

Shit will get better once ranked comes out. Right now you're either queuing into teams of retards for no reason, or partying with friends to pubstomp (again, for no reason).

Not defending the game, because it really isn't that great, but the idea behind some of the characters was to include play styles from different FPS genres via different characters. Phara is the Quake/UT character with the high jumps and ttt missiles.
>>
>>340159668
If anything, I'd say pharah is a balanced character. She has pros and cons, not OP or UP.
If you were going to do anything it would be to buff her health a bit but it's not that necessary

I know I sound butthurt as fuck but it's really annoying to play against her in 98% of the games. She is almost like Widowmaker, she destroys all fun and you have to play around her. I would've been fine if they just gave her an assault rifle or something but not a fucking rocket-launcher.
She already has a "rocket" ultimate where she covers a great area and does decent amount of damage, they didn't need to give her the rocket-launcher. I just find her extremely anti-fun and she makes the games really boring. That is just my opinion though.

Yes, they wont nerf him properly

He will still be meta in the next 6 month from what we know about blizzard.
They already nerfed him once in the beta and didnt manage to make him worse.

If they nerf what they said they will, the only thing different will be that he kills some of the tanks somewhat slower.
He will still wipe anyone else with the stun -> flashbang combo and his single shot medium range dmg and his ulti will be the same.
They just said they will make fan the hammer not kill tanks and reduce its dmg a bit.
But as long as your team doesnt consistent of several tanks (which has other drawbacks that can be counter picked) he will be at the very same level of effectiveness.

So i always laugh when someone butthurt kid is like "lmao wait for the nerfs retard" after i wipe them with mccree.

What?

If anything he is much more balanced than Phara. Atleast he takes somewhat skill considering he has a grenade-launcher and not a rocket-launcher which goes straight all the time. Phara has unlimited amounts of escapes due to her jetpack, Junkrat has one possible espace and that is if he wastes his mine to jump away.
If anyhing they should nerf his martyrdom grenades or whatever when he dies, they are complete bullshit damage wise. Maybe his regular damage on the grenades a little bit as well.
Other than that he is good.
>>
>>340161329
Junkrat's grenade launcher has an arc to it, it will not explode when it hits the ground and he can't fucking fly.
>>
>>340158667
god yes

there are only 2 game modes, all the maps are designed the same (spawn, open area, chokepoint, objective, chokepoint, open area, spawn), there are already best and worst classes for each role regardless of map, and blizzard is not releasing balance or content patches any time soon. not to mention the fucking fact that there is cosmetics loot gambling in a b2p game, which is a complete fucking scam.

i guarantee the only patches coming in the next month or two will be additional loot crate bullshit.

>Skill compared to Pharah

My fucking sides. Junkrat is the most fucking brainless area denial character in this game. Here's a hint, the fact that his explosives arc is GOOD. He does more reliable splash damage than Pharah, he can mine jump so there does Pharah's "verticle" advantage without making him a huge target like Pharah. Junkrat can just stand back and mash left click into an objective be rewarded, Pharah has to aim her rockets.

If you're getting killed by a Pharah you are straight up being outplayed considering Pharah is one of the only characters in OW that actually needs to aim and lead shots because her damage is direct hit or nothing.

Since Hearthstone, Blizzard has used an algorithm in their matchmaker that basically forces you to a 50/50 win/lose split. This applies to Hearthstone, Heroes of the Storm, and now as confirmed by multiple sources including myself and my friends, Overwatch.

It's not a sophisticated tool either, it's a blunt force instrument. Basically, they have an algorithm that can extremely roughly estimate people's ability, so if you win by say 60 or 70% over the course of a few hours, the game will automatically slap you with complete bullshit teammates, against an opposing team that's either a premade or filled with much more skilled individuals than what your BS team could possibly hope to win against so that there's a 99% chance of a guaranteed loss. And it will keep doing this, until the 50/50 is restored. The same applies if you lose. You get put with amazing teams where you can literally AFK and still win.

This creates a game where 90% of the matches are lopsided pubstomps with zero challenge, and 95% of the matches depend on anything but your own skill. Even if you get better, even if you and your friends get better, you will still only get a roughly 50% winrate.

This all renders all kinds of tactics and advanced gaming useless. It was especially obvious in Hearthstone where you could literally pour hundreds of bucks and dozens of hours of learning from tournaments etc into the game, and still stay at the same ~50% winrate as those friends of yours who just bought the game... friends whose decks you always beat 99 times out of 100.

This is a real shame. More and more people are becoming aware of this, and yet this is the third game Blizz has made with more or less the exact same algorithm.

Low risk high reward is always cancer. Yesterday I watched a Widowmaker on my team miss a shot on a flying Pharah, deliberately tank a rocket (not even attempting to dodge), then get the kill anyway because the sniper charge is so fast.

>...(cont)
I can't believe there are still people who haven't either realized this, or bothered to actually google about it to find out what's going on.

It's effectively the same shit Bethesda pulled with Oblivion all those years ago: Any levels and experience you got would be entirely useless, since all enemies were scaled to match.

It's insulting, even borderline criminal for Blizz to pull this shit, especially in games like HS and HoTS that pretend to be pay to win, where relatively speaking you get literally no advantage whatsoever even with legendary top-tier tournament decks you KNOW how to play. And it's what destroyed Overwatch for me and my friends in no more than a week of it being released.

Of course, we knew what to look for, as we'd seen this shit in Blizz games before. As it stands, WoW is the only Blizz game remaining without such overbearingly powerful artificial matchmaking elements in place.
>>
>>340166332
No, not wrong.

Pharah gets 120 on hit, and her splash does 13 THROUGH 80. Not like fucking Skillrat who's 80 flat. Pharah's splash damage is pathetic, if you're getting killed by Pharah's splash damage you need to be more aware of where she's trying to shoot you from and kill her. Being in the air makes her a giant, slow moving target for all hitscan weapon users.

>>340169339
1. You're standing on 54.8%. That's literally close enough. Expect to see a streak of losses soon. Also, wait another hundred matches and see where it's going when the dozen or so matches are too few to make that 5% of a difference you've got.

2. The system also isn't perfect, and reportedly has more trouble keeping up with full team sized, skilled premades. So if that's your case, why don't you try it out in solo or with but a few friends and see what happens then.

She is good on defending maps but if you plan on playing her on attack your team is better off getting a second support.

A lot of people underestimate how much damage her M1 does and will often walk through multiple turrets to kill you. It doesn't work.

>>340170825
She is very situational.
Very good if you are defending the first point in assault maps.
You should immediatly switch if the other team took A though.

On payload maps she is mostly garbage.
And she is completely useless on king of the hill.

Scrap that she is actually only usefull on assault maps where the teleporter can shine the most.
>>
>>340171143
I've found she works best on capture and hold and defence side of payload only.

Even defending maps she's too easy kill by tracers, road hogs and widows that try to single you out. Also, her sentries are just too fucking easy to spot and kill no matter where you put them.
>>
>>340170825
Symmetra cannot carry and requires your opponent to be stupid or angry enough to chase you. If your team is already winning, she can seriously reinforce that advantage to snuff out comeback potential, but by herself she is not very impressive.

She's fine on payload maps, just again, switch her after they've pushed a decent distance.

She's actually better on payload than assault maps because the map size is usually a lot bigger.
>>
>>340171317

Trick is building up your ultimate and putting the teleporter close enough to the action that one of your team mates dying isn't even an inconvenience. Also her turrets are tricky but I have found putting them in groups of 2 OOS in doorways and ledges works best. Just be sure that if your turrets start attacking something you gotta go over there and help. Give your enemy a bigger target with more health so they don't just splash damage them both dead.
>>
>>340171197

>And she is completely useless on king of the hill.

This is just poor trolling Anon. I have gotten play of the game on KotH maps with Symmetra. You just can't be fickle with her turrets. Don't be afraid to move them around every kill or two.

Scrub. Pharah is perfectly fine, she counters some heroes, get countered by others. Her explosions deal the same damage as every other explosion in the game (junkrat, zarya and 76's right clicks). If anything, her ult needs a buff (like simply the option to cancel it) because it's kinda rubbish

Just played three rounds, got Play of the Game in two of them, once as Zen for shutting down a Bastion ult and killing a McCree as we took B on Volskaya and once as Symmetra for taking on a Roadhog, Widowmaker and Reaper alone (I got lucky with their reload timing).

Her ult needs to be a circle she places on the ground and when you M1 is launches her in to the air and fires all her missiles at it at once.

I don't even play Pharah and I think her ult gets countered too easily.
>>
>>340173119
>nigger assblasted for getting rekt by a pharah as junkrat
Why didn't this scrub switch characters? Junkrat litteraly can't do anything against pharah.
People still don't understand this game is rock paper scissors, and allows to switch characters whenever and without any restriction unlike mobas.

Mcree is confirmed not balanced by the developers, they're nerfing his fan or stun.. Same goes with D.va confirmed for a small buff.
>>
>>340158965
>>340159127
Agreed, her rockets honestly have less punch than the TF2 soldier IMO, her boost doesn't give you any momentum, just height, she's slow and gets insta-killed by other heroes like McCree and Roadhog with his hook. IMO she's like a slower, squishier version of the soldier, with way less damage output. I wanted to main her for a while even but got tired of dying to little things so often. Plus her ult can just be canceled or rendered useless by almost anything in the game, it's incredibly situational. Can't even ult if they have a Dva, Widowmaker, Hanzo, Soldier, Roadhog, McCree etc.

So Blizzard keeps tagging cheaters and repeatedly bans them even if they buy new Overwatch copies and tie them to new Bnet accounts. How do they do this exactly? Do they leave a file behind, or do they read your geographical location or some unique hardware ID?

if you took the reload out of combat roll you have literally made that useless.

Just add a cooldown to Fan. Like as infuriating as it is to get comobed we probably need SOMETHING in the game to shut down Tracers and Genji's.

But if you can bait out the Hammer with something like Ghost Walk or Ice Block then the McCree should be in trouble, not just mash it again. This also stops him from ripping tanks a new asshole as well.

>>340178765
what about make fan and the instant reload tied as a skill? so they can use fan and after that empties they get a quick, not instant, reload so they can follow up with regular shots? that way they can't fan roll fan again? I have no clue how to fit that into his kit without removing the roll, but since it's useless without the instant reload removing it might be best.
>>
I seem to find the fun in a new hero every week. 4 weeks ago it was hanzo, 3 weeks ago it was genji 2 weeks ago it was phara, 1 week ago it was junkrat and now i'm finding rodhog pretty fun to be good with. I'm still having fun, but i also don't have the time to play the game 24/7.
>>
>>340179370

This.

Put fan the hammer on a CD like S76's M2. It's at the point where people use it over his M1.
>>
>>340179167
junkrat only needs a second or two on his mine and maybe a small ammo reduction to make him less spam friendly. McCree needs more of an adjustment to his kit if he's going to be anything but a combo character. But reaper and S:76 are still very viable, just not as versatile.
>>
>>340179167
Reaper is great. He makes his own health kits, and has two escape options. Not to mention he is better at killing tanks than Mccree as reaper is not fucking useless for 8 seconds once he uses his wombo combo.
>>
>>340179615
All you have to do to shutdown junkrat is play pharrah.
>>
>>340179370
I was thinking more of being able to Roll then Fan in an Oh Shit situation, which is what the devs orignally actually designed it for.

The problem is he can get off 2 Six Shot fans in about a half a second, and 12 shots is more then enough to kill anything that moves.
>>
Am I the only one that thinks its bullshit that enemy heroes can move through Reinhardt's shield? Tracer I get cause she just teleports through it anyway but he doesn't have any viable range and watching Junkrat riptire through the shield and explode to kill you is bullshit.
