Oh god, he still exists. Back in season 1, around GM/M area.. he was the worst to get in a game because all he did was play sym. I feel the numbers in GM/M are a little bigger so its less common to run into the same person, but fuck back then people would literally leave the game seeing him in. It was pretty much a free win for whatever team he wasn't on.

Changes feel great so far , really nice to see DVA not being so anti-fun any more and mercys actually having to do something which requires some degree of skill. Nice that the unvuln and no-LOS requirement is gone, means there is some degree of risk rezzing someone. I like it.

lolol, I have to try that now
Patch notes don't list Roadhog's Take a Breath change for "taking reduced damage" while using it, but the ability text states reduced damage in game so...I think it's in?

The Roadhog change are nice, he's somewhat viable now. I miss his hook, and how he played before. He's super tanky now though, and extremely hard to kill.
The take a breather reducing damage and being able to move is awesome. You can survive a D'va bomb now while taking a breather in the middle of it, or the dragons from Hanzo...actually pretty sure you can survive everything while taking a breather.
He charges his ultimate so fast now too, you're constantly using it.
I like him, but I liked him better before the changes...and he's not as good now as he used to be, but he's way better than right after the nerf.
On a different note I hate when you get put in a group with 2 or 3 people already grouped and 1 of them plays the main healer, or only healer and they do nothing but heal their friend and ignore everyone else in the group. I was there standing in front of the Mercy at a 1/3rd of my health on Winston asking for heals, and she kept damage boosting her D'va friend. I died trying to get to a health pack.

I had that happen a few times recently also.
I got a group twice in a row of 3 that locked Bastion, Torbjorn and Symmetra. The 3 were in low gold, but their season and career high was in the low diamond...so I think they were intentionally deranking.

Shit I was diamond like season 2 and I played lastnight (im a crappy gold now), had some guy call me a smurf. Hell I get gold elims and shit every game on soldier but I cant carry a whole team, once I'm dead no one else kills people. Gold feels like such crap, less likely to get two healers and 2 tanks in gold.

Just finished my placements last night and got placed 2700... FIRST TIME placing Platinum fucking-finally.
Every other "Season" I'm usually placed 2300 and need to gain 200 for Plat, even though I end season ~2500-2800.
I was shocked to be placed 2700 since I went 4W-4L-2D. They must have changed something?!
I've basically been waiting for the D'Va and Mercy changes, shit was so aids. Games felt much better without that cheese.

Ya I placed 2700 then dropped to 2400. I refuse to play at nights now or weekend nights, all the shitters and ragers are on then.
I do agree, as a soldier main it was super annoying when mercy's would use rez to avoid dying (makes them invul for a few seconds like those who get ressed) then by time she was free game i had a whole enemy team around me ressed.
So yeah the changes are good but its almost guarantee like if i I kill pharah that mercy will res so i have to kill pharah twice now!

this game needs a solo-queue only queue. Almost nothing triggers me faster in this game than being added to a shitty 5 stack that refuses to communicate or god forbid pick a balanced or relevant comp. It's especially worse when that happens and the other team is a six stack that actually works as a team.
