Overwatch Discussion Thread
Hello, and welcome to the Overwatch discussion thread! Here, you and other PMC members can talk about strategies, vent about the about characters being nerfed, or just share your experiences with the game. You can also vote on questions each week and suggest a guide to be made about specific characters. The only one I have right now is the guide for Sombra, but watch out for the guides on D. Va, Ana, Reinhardt, and Symmetra very soon.
Here's a question for you: Which of Moira's emotes is your favorite? Be sure to share why in the comments below!

Well, that was a great poll. Now what?
2
the words Mercy and nerfed together are amazing.
2
Agreed. I've had a shaky relationship with Mercy, and things aren't like what they used to be. I thought maybe it was time for me to play other heroes, maybe get a new perspective. I still love her, but I don't think I can main her anymore. It's sad, but it has to happen.
I'm sorry Angela Ziegler, but we're breaking up. XD

yup yup.

Sombra has always been a better match for me. I spend a lot of time with her too. We both love annoying the heck out of people, making snappy remarks, and using my teammates to gain an edge. I think this is the relationship is meant to be.
Also, welcome comrade! If you'd like, you can join the Discord associated with this thread. Just be warned: it's a bit more mature than PMC content. Be sure to let me know if you're interested!

Liar

smh all these lies
poll is out of date xD

Yeah, I'm a total mess. Any suggestions on a new poll? Maybe something to do with Moira (who I already hate btw)?
2
new poll: do u like moira :P
1
Done. Still haven't listen to any voice interactions but oh well. Also, where's the Talon skin for her origin trailer?
2
New hero coming soon! And it's a healer.
Pretty hype

Okay, I'm going to change the poll to which Halloween skin is the best once I have a chance to get into the event. Also, McCree won the poll, and it seems we got more than we could have even asked for him. Van Helsing McCree is amazing.
1
So the event has dropped! What is everybody's thoughts?
1
So... The new skins have been released. Mei is now the monster she is, Zenyatta has turned from harmony to chaos, and Symmetra's a dragon. What an interesting bunch we have here.
1
It seems that Kaplan has smiled down upon me and given me the skin I so desired: Van Helsing McCree is real my friends!
1
Okay, I finally updated the poll. HanzoXMcCree seems to be the most popular ship, with PharahXMercy in a close second. The new poll is which character(s) should get a new skin for the Halloween event. Just make sure if you have a second option, put it down in the comments since you can't have multiple votes now.

I'm getting Overwatch for my birthday on the 25th of september!
1
So... What do you guys want for the poll? I'm a bit low on ideas, and the ones I have are super boring.
1
Um, should I change the poll now?
2
Sure, if you want
1
Well, everyone seems to have stopped voting. I'll give it until the end of the day and if nothing has changed, I'll end it.

Working on becoming a competitve Soldier main. Any tips?
1
Have good aim, use healing pod for more then just healing yourself (for example, when you and your team is stuck in a Zarya ult), aim rockets on the ground for splash damage
1
Yeah, I've been trying to work with Ana main I play with to create what is called the "Budget Transcendence", which is basically a healing grenade and healing pod dropped at the same time. I'm also working on rocket jumping and making the most of my Nano-Boosts. The aim bit is a work in progress, but I was able to hit a Pharah with a Helix Rocket. Don't know if that good or not though. Still going to run a competitive Sombra alongside Soldier, so I have a fallback if this doesn't work.
1
Uh, anybody got any ideas for a new main to take up for the new competitive season? I think I'm gonna hang up my Valkyrie suit, Caduceus staff, and blaster for a while.
1
Why did I ever worry about the Mercy changes? Mercy is so much better now lol.
2
I just realized with the new Mercy buff, Mercy is actually a viable candidate for a Nano-Boost. This is going to be fun.
2
So, we finally have details on the new abilities D.VA and Mercy will have.
D.VA got heavily buffed. She now has a new "E" ability, which allows her to launch a volley of mini missiles that do a tiny bit of splash damage that are fired for about 2-4 seconds. She can also use her main guns/missiles while using her "Shift" boost ability. Only downside, her defence matrix time is halfed. Overall, she's gotten more powerful offensive wise, but her defensive capabilities have taken a hit to balance. Overall, I'm fine with it.
Then there's Mercy...wow. I think she got heavily nerfed (Even harder then Roadhog to be honest.) Her power to resurrect people is no longer her ult. It is now her "E" ability. It can res 1 person, and has a 30 second cooldown. Her brand new ult is called "Valkyrie", which allows her to fly freely for 20 seconds, and the cooldown of her res is shortened to 10 seconds for the duration of her ult. Overall, I find that her res is now an ability instead of an ult is interesting, but man, her capabilities have been decimated. She can no longer multi-res, instead focusing on single target ressing, and while her ult will allow her to be harder to kill, I don't she many uses for it, except for being a harder target to hit. Main waifu has taken a severe blow, and I get the feeling she'll no longer by the No. 1 most played hero in competitive very quickly. So enjoy being able to multi-res while it lasts, people.
I'll need to test these 2 characters myself before final opinions on the changes, but I'm very worried about Mercy.
(In other news, I got every single event skin for the Summer Games, all the emotes, all the highlight intros, and even all the sprays. Life is good)

Yup. I'm making D.Va Dogfights now.
Also, I will be playing Mercy less until i learn how to deal with her.

And here I still await a switch version :( It looks like such a good game.
2
I dunno man, still, keep your hopes up.

There's still an app that will comeback out on NS allowing me to stream games. Maybe I could buy the game on my PC and play it on NS? -\("/)/-

This is Minecraft, not Overwatch.

Ah, welcome comrade! Do not worry, you are not the first to make this mistake. Trust me, there's no hard feelings, so stay if you'd like!

Been playing some Roadhog, since people won't be quiet about how he's "unplayable because of all the nerfs"
I don't see it, his gun still does good damage lol

That's not my issue, at least. I just find him unwieldy, or any tank for that matter. Let's go through my thoughts when I play a tank:
Uh...
What?
Where?
Where am I?
Oh.
Ugh...
Why me!?
Yeah, I'm completely hopeless.

I like how this post is filled with staff and the only normal member's post I find is complaining it's an Overwatch thread on a Minecraft fansite lmao
Overwatch is fabulous enough to exist here too

Just cause I can.

I wanna change the poll question to favorite Overwatch ship, but I have no idea which ones to include, save some. Any ideas?
2
Should I make a poll asking what everyone's favorite Overwatch ship is? I mean, I kinda wanna take down the Doomfist poll. Leopard won, by the way. So, should I do it or not?
2
XD I got a Play of the Game just for hunting down a Mercy and the Hanzo she was pocketing. After it finished playing, I look in the chat and see: "HanzoXMercy shall never be a thing. You did well Soldier." I almost died of laughter.
2
lol
Everyone knows PharahXMercy is best ship anyway

Actually, how many characters are shipped with Mercy? There's 4 I can remember, but there's probably more. But to be honest, I like GenjiXMercy best. So cute.
But I'm a McCreeXHanzo shipper so what do I know about ships?

The Cricket skin for Junkrat is the best skin in the game.
No contest.

guys send help
I was playing Competitive Lucio Ball, and after 2 matches, I went to search for another match. The game experienced an error, and now the game is constantly searching for a game, while not actually searching. I can't join any games, and I'm stuck on the main menu
Blizzard fix your broken game ;n;
