I can't believe how balanced all the classes are from the start
Jun 09th 2016
46
Torbjörn's turret is a fucking annoyance, too
Jun 09th 2016
47
All the turrets need to be toned down a bit I feel
Jun 09th 2016
48
      I think once the game's been out a bit longer...
Jun 10th 2016
50
      Hanzo,Widowmaker, Pharah wreck him
Jun 10th 2016

      good idea about nerfing the direct hits

Jun 26th 2016
73
you can practice against AI
Jun 27th 2016
75
yeah I played a couple matches vs the AI, def glad that's there
Jun 27th 2016
78
I'd recommend hitting the practice range.
Jun 27th 2016
76
I've stuck mostly to the support roles so far
Jun 27th 2016
79
Yeah, unsurprisingly.
Jun 28th 2016
82
I think I am going to swap to green thumb (jump on stick)
Jun 27th 2016
81
I just jumped in after training. I didn't play the betas
Jun 27th 2016
77
      the characters are relatively easy to learn
Jun 27th 2016
80
           learning the maps is crucial
Jun 28th 2016
83
I got a Play of the Game...WITH MERCY. So I'm God now.
Jun 29th 2016
84
pistol'd somebody to death?
Jun 30th 2016
85
it's usually 3+ rezzes + a pistol frag
Jun 30th 2016
87
      ^basically. it was actually anticlimatic
Jun 30th 2016
88
finally got a couple of them with Lucio
Jul 11th 2016
100
      i think those are the first I've ever seen from a Lucio. good shit.
Jul 13th 2016
107
If you're playing competitive mode don't be an asshole
Jun 30th 2016

Jul 12th 2016
101
                          Agreed, limitation of the platform.

NEW HERO - ANA
Jul 12th 2016
102

Jul 13th 2016
108
Aaaaand balance changes!
Jul 12th 2016
104
Much needed changes
Jul 12th 2016
105
the hero stacking change isn't all good imo
Jul 13th 2016
106
Mercy got some great buffs.
Jul 13th 2016
109
      Mercy self-heals? That's news to me
Jul 13th 2016
110
           she has regen. if you stop taking damage for a couple seconds
Jul 13th 2016
111
                if that's true, she won't get ult charge from that
Jul 13th 2016
112
                     you're probably right since it's a passive ability.
Jul 13th 2016
113
Competitive mode is kind of killing my high.
Jul 14th 2016
114
Ranked in any competitive game is stressful as hell
Jul 14th 2016
115
I'm very picky about when to play it
Jul 15th 2016
116
      It's this one line that says it all
Jul 15th 2016
117
           could you imagine if every team with a Zarya and Mei
Jul 15th 2016
118
Ana....naaa
Jul 22nd 2016
119
I think she's fun to play, but I don't know if she's good.
Jul 22nd 2016
120
compared to other supports she's just not optimal
Jul 22nd 2016
121
      She's actually not bad at all
Jul 23rd 2016
124
New patch gives Ana faster fire rate and slightly larger clip
Jul 26th 2016
126
I stink at this game, but it is fun
