Discussion Results of banning Mercy every single game

306 Upvotes

We decided with my duo to do placements for dmg and tank while banning Mercy every single game because we are totally sick of ashe mercy smurfing sometimes mnking poison pandemic.

It was beatiful of course but also sad and hilarious because in only 20 games we met - mercy otp who says: gg iam mercy otp and proceeded to literally just walk around as Ana and healing like 1000 dmg. Dmg player leaving with no comment after mercy got ban twice. The mercy player asking why the hell you banned mercy, random replied - maybe so you dont get boosted? Then the ashe left and match was cancelled, ashe was very low level account and mercy was private. The mercy pocketing absolutely broken hitscan meta heroes while often combined with mnking and smurfing is such a huge issue on console..

Discussion Is it me or s76 is crazy oppressive?

81 Upvotes

Everytime a s76 catches me just a bit outside cover I get tracked like crazy and die instantly. Also it's the hero I have seen most cheaters on.

Imo a hero with mobility, range, self-heal and a very good ttk without skill shots needs something turned down.

Also I notice every bad dps player turns to s76 as soon as they see they can't do anything.

For context I'm in Masters and a Illari otp.

I think the rank reset did more harm than good mixing gms with diamonds and I have never seen this amount of s76 played and cheaters/boosted people.

Discussion Some matches in gold are honestly harder than in diamond

63 Upvotes

I am a diamond support Juno main who is currently doing dps placements on Echo. So many of these "gold" players are doing things I started seeing close to diamond. I can get away with more shit on Juno in diamond than Echo in gold.

I know I am probably worse on Echo than Juno but the difference in the players I should be playing against is 3 ranks.

Discussion More zen/ximmers than usual lately

This issue is rampant and completely and utterly ruining the game. What can we do about this issue to bring attention to it? Is there even anything that can be done? Petition? Comments? I'm so tired of it, the game is literally unplayable on console. The game is pretty challenging enough for me as is, but what seems like a sudden influx of cheaters is completely ruining it for me. 1/3 games for me it's at least one cheater. Everybody else will have a regular amount of damage and these mf's will have 10-15k more than everybody else. Blatantly flicking onto people and shit. Genuine lowlifes I have so much unfathomable hatred towards these pathetic people ruining this experience for all of us. If you want to use your mouse and keyboard for the love of God go play on your computer.

Discussion Dealing with widow on sup

3 Upvotes

I could really use some tips on dealing with good widows as a sup, obviously trying to stay out of los and use cover are a must, but some points in certain maps make it quite difficult to manage that and retake point/car (such as circuit royale 2nd point on attack) if the widow is well positioned. I mostly play moira and mizuki, but also ana, kiri, illari and cat sometimes. Probably a skill issue on my part, ngl, but I would really appreciate some general tips to apply against her

Discussion How to get better movement ?

2 Upvotes

Hello everyone, I am a champion support main, and I just wanted to know how I can improvement my movement. I do strafe, but it just seems slow? I watch myself back on kill cams a lot, and although I do throw people off, I’m still fairly predictable/ easy to hit. When I see the bots move in VAXTA, like I want to be able to move like that, or even PC players, like champion sojourns are missing all their rails sometimes because some people’s movement is so good, I really wish I could do that! I know this is on controller, but even my controller friends have insane movement, so there must be a way, any tips? Any settings too? Thank you!
