I'm a Winston main funny enough, but you must not have been touching Comp, or had games wherein people can aim. Storm Arrow is a major problem for everyone, Winston included. Brig can beat him in a 1v1....again, he's an awesome squshie/sniper harraser...but to me, he doesn't feel quite "strong" enough. Miro has said the same thing.

??? I'm high diamond on one account and plat on my second. Winston is great. He was literally a must pick up until brig came out.

Brig beats the entire cast in 1v1 besides Phara Hanzo and Widow So that's not saying anything. Brig is ridiculous.

Was Diamond some seasons back, Gold this time, and down to silver due to this being the worst season in OW, Diamonds and Plats I run with have dropped 200-300 SR due to leavers/throwers. Also keep the SR talk sparse, I'm pretty sure I can aim better than anyone on these forums, even with Zen. SR is indicative of my horrible teammates, not my overall skill.

keep the SR talk sparse shut the fukk up

Brigitte is the worst thing to happen to this game.

Brigitte is the worst thing to happen to this game.

It was a necessary evil. She's the only tracer counter in the existence of the game and she single handily put a dent into dive which was literally the only way to play this game at a competitive level before she came.

We just have to wait til more characters comes out to balance brig. But even with how good she is she does have counters. Mainly Phara and Hanzo.

It's a nice change from dive, but it's weird, people won't even run dive when the other team isn't running Brig now.

Winston was my favorite hero to play, but I picked up Brigitte quick. I play support at a higher level than other roles anyways.

Hanzo rework probably helped kill dive just as much as Brig too.

You losing all these games but the only thing every one of your teams have in common is you.

I'll never understand blaming your team when you can just focus on improving your own game. That's the "secret" to climbing.

True to an extent. Hanzo is ridiculous as well now.

Yeah he rips though tanks just as easily as Reaper now, and from range. Has a better ult and better mobility (overall) + sonic arrow.

Something that REALLY bothers me is how hyper responsive the healer on the enemy team always is. As soon as I fukking breathe on an enemy his teammates heals that person almost instantaneously. I've never had healers like that on my team. There have been so many instances where I get someone down to 1 HP only for them to be healed so quickly. Meanwhile the healers on my team are dimwitted and retarded. No awareness or anything.

for the most part yeah, but plat is the epitome of elo hell. I was stuck in it for seasons, ive finally made diamond and cushioned myself a bit above it to avoid plat players. Its filled with smurfs/throwers. Once you get out its such a breath a fresh air.

him not getting out of plat I can see his side on it, but him falling all the way to silver? naw, you're just bad

The toughest spots are on the borders of two ranks (2900-3100 for example) after that games are a lot smoother.

But you do have to change your playstyle depending on what rank you are. Playing someone like Zenyatta at plat is a lot harder than playing him at master. Once you get higher your team actually peels for you and you don't have to 1v1 Genji and Tracer as often.

Right now you can climb easy by just playing meta heros, (Rein/Zarya/Hanzo/Mercy/Brig/Zen) and you should be fine. Especially Brig and Mercy.

Big facts. Moira was annoying but I lived with it. Then they added another low skill cap healer who fukking deletes everybody. Who the fukk signed off on that shyt. Theres no way they tested her and said this was fine. You can't even play flanker anymore, Genji and Tracer are in the lowest fukking place ever, Rein is basically dead, McCree is useless, etc.
