    She definitely makes quick work of bastion for me

    Yeah, I think her shields are maybe one of the more underestimated/under-used aspects of the game. If she times it right she can basically safe herself and a teammate from an enemy ultimate at point blank range, which can be instrumental in a payload escort or capture point victory. And yeah if you get within range of a bastion or turret with full health and a shield to pop upon first attack, it's a wrap

      That Zarya video was nuts. Need to give her more of a go.

        The key with Zarya is teamwork though and sometimes that difficult to achieve on console. If you can get a Zarya, aggressive teammate and a healer to work together - it can be devastating.

            Not sure if this was posted already but this 17 year old girl got accused of cheating by pro gamers but blizzard came out and said nope....lol.



            After a complaint was filed and investigated, Geguri was cleared of all charges; the manager of Geguri’s team even posted a transcript (link is in Korean) of a chat he had with tournament officials. But that wasn’t enough to quell the controversy. So the Korean gaming site Inventory invited Geguri to perform a live public demonstration of her skills.


            Her live stream:

                Interesting to see that's the direction they choose to go in. Seems fair enough. Definitely is an issue on console more so than PC

                  I think something should also be done to the cooldown but at least they are addressing it.

                    That's what I was most curious about, if they were gonna do one big nerf or a couple small ones. Addressing the cooldown would have worked with also a 10-15 percent damage nerf but 30 is pretty significant on its own if you think about it, it makes the turret pretty easy to solo with a number of heroes now.


                    Not complaining, a nerf was definitely needed on console. Just thinking out loud.

                    Edit:

                    I'm definitely excited to see what changes turret placement, people didn't need to worry about being very strategic before and could basically leave it on its own out in the open. I see people needed to tuck it away in side rooms near objectives a lot more often now

                      Thank you lord for that nerf. Couldn't be more happy. Wished they'd address how fast it acquires targets and how fast it builds his super. Basically I wish they nuked his *** on consoles.

                          I was joking around the other night with some OS guys about this, but anyone else really notice this?

                          Playing with randoms if I find a good team then that team ends after just 1 or 2 matches. If I'm on a team that is completely outmatched then the system has no issue making me play against that team over and over again. Friday night when a few of us were on had this one really good team for a single game. Some of those randoms we were with got switched to the opposing team, and we were really only competitive once. Yet it forced us to play against them for like 4 straight games before we finally just left that queue

                            Blizzard admitting that matchmaking right now is a little screwy because of the "Avoid this player" function. It was causing too many "broken connections" in matchmaking leading to less-than-desirable matches. The feature has been disabled in the menus, but I believe won't be completely removed until an upcoming patch. Jeff Kaplan made a very long post on matchmaking somewhere, I'll see if I can try to find it.

                                Man had bad luck with support randoms this weekend. Had one mercy that had its pistol out more than healing and wouldn't heal the tank. Mind you I walked over and stood in front of her and still got no healing.

                                Than had multiple Lucio that would have speed on when I needed healing. Needlessly to say I stopped playing tank after that string of poor support play. Even if we had no tank I still wouldn't pick it.
