Aye, that was fun! I surprised we got paired by the matchmaker. lol

I really wonder how big the player base is sometimes. I feel like I see the same people very often, even spanning multiple days, not counting common names.

It's like "oh, i played this guy yesterday and he's a pharah main". And then after a round usually 3-4 of same people are in next one.

Compare this to LOL which I'm playing more of now and I never see same people even when queuing right after a game.

The only way to get Torb POTG.


I got the Zen skin and a bunch of sprays and icons. I bought the Mei and Widow skin. I'll wait on the Roadhog since I like the walrus one a lot. I rarely play Doomfist, so I'll just wait to get that one too.

The new map is a Pharah/Widow heaven. It's very frustrating if you are on the otherside of a team that won't counter. I have no idea what Blizzard was thinking other than, "hey this will make a great OWL map!".

I forgot, Doa named it the Slambulance

Yeah I'm torn on the quad tank Horizon A strategy. It seems to take A by storm but always seems to stall out trying to take B and eventually all people need to swap heroes and reset ults.

I think every single D'va in my games since the update was using the Black Cat skin.

They should have sold that one for $10 in real cash, and they would made a fortune. :)

Have another newb question .


For quick match does the thing have a hidden "skill rating?" value that determines who you will match with? last few days i had been wrecking in most matches and today had some pretty bad ones. Could be just luck and one time it was simply two of the most passive players I've ever seen on my team.

When do you guy think it's worth going into trying competitive play, I've had a few people ask me. But Mercy is the only character i really feel decent with to be honest. I'd rather this not be like a situation where when i played MTG 12-15 years ago my DCI rating was overall tanked down to 1500 in draft as i played some awful matches as a newb. Years later that stopped me from getting an elo of 2k overall even with 2070 constructed and it still bugs me today.

The best time to play competitive is once you reach level 25. QP is only good for learning the absolute basics of a hero. It teaches you nothing because no one gives a fuck about winning.
