I think Winston’s shield could use a buff, either to its HP, cooldown or both. It’s pretty much the weakest shielding mechanism of the four tanks with shields now.

It’s hard to conceive of a play test that can rival a multi-million person player base.

Lots of characters eat ults, and some even easier. Reinhardt’s shield destroys Soldier & McCree’s ults, anyone who can shoot a tire destroys Junkrat’s, any shield with any amount of hit points blocks D.Va’s ult, Ana’s sleep dart destroys any duration-based ult, etc., etc.

Not true. She’s in a good place now re: Reinhardt, Road Hog and Zarya. Winston could use a buff, but he was nerfed late in beta because stacking Winstons was so good. Now that you can’t stack him (in Competitive), I could see them buffing him a bit.

I too wonder about the DLC. And does this mean the existing ones become backwards compatible (ie the 360 versions playing on the Xbone)?

Fad.

And how much life did that Reaper have left? He could have been 3/4s dead already.

I don’t see how she’s the _complete_ opposite. She’s strong, she’s tough, she put duty to the state ahead of personal glory. Those all seem ‘Russian’ to me.

A single-player campaign would either need to be balanced for 22 and counting characters, or force characters into using specific pre-chosen ones. Neither is a particularly good choice.

Is the Demon Hunter based on the Diablo 3 Demon Hunter? I only ask because they’re both Blizzard properties, and have the identical name of course.

Who thought D.Va’s ult needed a nerf? Drunkards and madmen, maybe.

Hero stacking is almost always a liability when the opposing team actually remembers they can change characters too.

What’s abstruse about the complex strategy of “get on the fricking objective!”

That’s entirely wrong. Zarya is the highest skill tank in the game, and probably in the top five out of all the characters.

No, I made an error. I attributed the initial comments about Winston to you. I can admit to errors, as most reasonable people can. Whether you’re a reasonable person remains to be seen. Nothing in the error invalidates my points or argument; the specific details rebutting the previous poster’s claims about…

Maybe some reading comprehension classes would serve you well. There’s an important difference between “never” and “not in this instance.” The original context was in reference to supposed stealth Overwatch changes, which there is no reason to believe occurred. “Never,” however, would refer to all Blizzard games, a…

Oh please. If you were 90% less full of yourself, you’d still be insufferable. Do we need to discuss the proven unreliability of memory and of eyewitness testimony (particularly involving a short period in the life of a game several years ago)? Or confirmation bias? No, we don’t. Because my argument isn’t that…

I don’t see how this is an example of their characters being super strange. You think Tycho is the only geek to have escaped from the evangelical/fundie crowd? Kids not being able to play D&D, read Harry Potter, etc. because of batshit religion in the parents is not that uncommon.

Wow, so you’re the guy giving anonymous internet commentators a bad name.

No, you’re right, the supposed Winston buff was from another poster. You just came running to their defence with your totally non evidential anecdote. Good work..
