I talked my son into finally trying comp for the first time about a week ago. He played tank while I played dps (I wish I had the replay). Started with defense on Eichenwalde. We were getting steamrolled in the first part but ended up coming back and eventually winning. Afterwards I asked him what he thought of comp. He said, "Dad, I enjoy Overwatch, but never ask me to play competitive again. Way too stressful."

@@snc237 Comp becomes stressfull because there is more at stake emotionally.

Hey Flats, that's me! 😆😇 EDIT to add some depth to this: - This was my first ranked game in both OW1 and OW2 😅 - I didn't even know that ranked matches have rounds system and so, I thought it will be same as quick play to be honest. - I didn't know that hitting a target that was hit by Ana's sleep dart wakes him up, that's why I intentionally hit Orisa when she was asleep at 2:30 - I have a random right hand condition where my hand starts shaking in intense situations or when I need to react very quickly and precisely at the same time, that's actually why I don't play DPS that much, and that's why my aim on a melee hero sucked at 5:07 - I pretty much always play aggressive, and heroes that allow me to do that are my favorites. - I got placed in Silver 3, and now I am Silver 2 - My main problem at the moment is positioning and where should I stand and hold in most maps, and hopefully someone can tell me where should I hold in 7:47 Cheers!

I love how Flats says to TAKE and HOLD space as a tank. Everyone else says tanks make space but that doesn't help anyone. Anyone can make space. A Widow makes more space on Junkertown point 1 than any tank can. Tanks have to know where the most advantageous places to fight are on every point of every map and constantly fight to control them.

@Royal Messiah It does 50 damage on full charge. As Jadyn Watkins points out, the combo does a total 130 burst damage. This is good on full hp squishies, but it's deadly on chipped hp bars as it can be a straight one shot. You can be the one chipping that healthbar, btw; the range on the thing is 30 meters and it's hitscan. It's also really good on finishing people who just went out of range of your main fire ability really low (as in when you do the combo). It doesn't seem like much, but remember that 50 hp is 1/4 of a squishy's healthbar.

Dude this guy has no potential. This isnt me just saying this because I'm blackpilled and tipsy, this dude has absolutely nothing going for him. He is missing with melee on Reinhardt, losing track of targets (not moving his mouse to see) with Winston, failing to aim and manage cooldowns with Sigma. He is in Bronze and unless he has a massive epiphany, he will never get out of metal ranks. People like this are destined to be carried. They probably have less than 2000 hours played across all video games in their entire life.

I will say despite everything I like how aggressive this guy is. Most Reins I encountered while grinding back up basically just acted as shield bots with the occasional charge but this guy is at least trying to get in there.
The reason Rein is easier to work with at the low ranks is the same reason said low ranks find Orisa invincible: People often don't bypass the tank to shoot the squishies, and often they shoot the tanks from the front instead of from angles. So most of the time they just obligingly plink away at the Rein shield instead of around it. Mind, this can also be "balanced" out by the Reins either being too hesitant or too feedy.
@charchadonto
Жыл бұрын
Another reason is positioning, at lower ranks people either bunch up or everybody tries to flank, but they rarely grab good positions. Which then either gives the reins a bunch of grouped up people to cleave and farm ult on, or singular threats that rarely coordinate effectively.

Hard stuck silver atm but on that hard grind to get better and maybe one day play in a lobby with the GOAT of tanks 😂 got gameplay of my first ranked game ever and let’s just say…. Ooof.

Low ELO Reinhardt is just Hillbilly from DBD

Usually the reason you bubble early is either to block CDs or so the edge of the shield lands on your target for optimal shield dancing
“You are so lost, but honestly I’m so about it.” 😂 that killed me
Never played multiplayer fps before(outside of some early halo with friends >15hours) got 40hr in ow2 with only one comp game played watching you has made me alot less worried about learning and growing in the game. Considering submitting the code for my 2nd comp match once I play it.

Overextending seems to be a worse problem than ever in OW2 for some reason... I don't know if it's only due to the new influx of players, but people don't seem to realize that 1 death can swing fights way faster now
@charchadonto
Жыл бұрын
The biggest reason is the removal of a lot of CC, so overextending doesn't get punished as harschly as it did before. Until you overextend to much and get deleted. Figuratively speaking, in the past when you overextended you had 5 people beating the crap out of you while the enemy tank shields of your team efforts to save you. Now once you get past the single tank, with the reduction of CC you get away with more then before, until you move into an unsaveable position. And get beaten up by 4 people.

That sudden ending to the VoD really made it seem like his life just ended. He straight up DIED IRL.
Not gonna lie, I'd love to know the logistics of why they went Winston in the second round. Like, the enemy was running Winston, Junkrat, Cassidy, Moira and Mercy. And they had an Ana, a Soldier, a Reaper and at varying points either a Moira or Zen. What part of that makes you think "Oh yes, Winton time!"? Like sure, you see Winston against basically everything in high elo but that doesn't translate to all ranks. Why pick a dive tank when there's nothing in the enemy team you'd actually want to get close to?

@@samehsmohamed94 Congrats. I'd say, keep the monkey for opportunities where the enemy either has good dive targets (Ana, Widowmaker, Ashe, Zenyatta and to a degree also Sojourn and Baptiste) or targets that are causing you trouble that Winston is just generally good against (such as Genji who can't deflect or dodge Winstons taser or Zarya who cannot get good charge off his attacks). But otherwise, unless you got really good team comms to coordinate your dives, probably not the best pick.
such a nice comp game to have. mine was with my friends and there was widow with perfect aim getting backed by the entire team rolling us. (reinhardt right infront of her on high ground)
"just make decisions faster" "oh god what have i done"
Played 9 games with Moira in ranked. Won 7 lost 2. 78% Win rate. 238 kills, 23 deaths, 10.35 kd. 64,000 dmg and 90,000 healing. 112 obj kills. 63% Secondary fire accuracy. Got ranked Bronze 4. Make it make sense Flats lol
quote"if there is no ana there is no reason to buble that early" . In this situation ( bronze and every body full) yea. But when there are blocable heals on enemy team ( moira, batptiste, ana, kiriko, life weaver) and you see an already injured ennemey, yea bubble early to block the ennemy team's heal to save their mate is totaly a thing because you wontfinish of anyone otherwise
5:15 That Moira is attacking there teams own Cassidy.
Rein was searching for that melody
Funny they always look at the ground, still step into every trap.
My first competitive match was way too good to be true. I was Orisa, and it was a 2-Map capture game, I believe we lost the first round, then won the second, and on the third round, it was on Ilios. I pushed the tank into the hole, which made the mercy following them die, and a few others died to me too, and we won, and on my FIRST competitive game, I got POTG. HOW?!
I never learnt how reliant orisa was on her cooldowns until I was playing chill or kill and the admin game me infinite cooldowns. I kept spinny spearing ppl to death. I later got kicked tho
Shooting hyperspheres and rock at the same time as Sigma is so damn satisfying, he feels so much more flexible now
Should I send in my first roadhog comp match? Is it self aware to admit that if I did better for the team as reaper then roadhog maybe I should quit being road? I have fun being roadhog but I think I'm not particularly good at it to a slight detriment to the team.. I think I'll just be a reaper main..
tbf on this guy, there's a chance he's looking at the ground so much to try and spot Junk traps? Feel so bad for the Ana who slept the tank so much and our guy just immediately woke them up instead of pinning rip
Gotta say that's a bronze legend

Stop shooting the horse is now your catchphrase
Flats at 12:53 in order to shoot and rock at the same time click rock then hold down shoot immediately after and the second the rock finishes throwing u will shoot

If Flats had a dollar for every time they had to say "stop shooting the horse", they could buy a stable full of horses.
