Pharah is an interesting case of dps that gets better the better your team comp is. No mercy? She sucks. Mercy? she is pretty good. Mercy+Lucio? she is hella strong.
This is probably why soldiers win rate is so high. He doesn't even need a healer to function.

Completely agree with that.

There are alot of heroes who do well vs her besides Soldier. I would count Genji, Widowmaker, McCree to them.

I would count Genji, Widowmaker, McCree to them. I don't argue with that, but I happen to enjoy playing Soldier as of late. It's easily my most competent hero choice among those that deal with Pharah decently.
On the subject of shitting on Pharah, I think I got the perfect revenge game. I was Roadhog defending on R66, and I must've hooked the enemy Pharah 10 times, delivering a delicious shot to the face each time. It was brutal, it was glorious, and I don't feel bad about it.

also a good choice vs her for sure

10 defense coinflips in a row... went 1-9.
10 defense coinflips, the odds for that are 1 out of 1024.
Fuck this trash game.

I just lost 2 ranks (2 matches) because our team didnt want to pick neither a healer or a tank. Ok I can heal, but without a tank we'll lose.
Blizzard should force matches to have at least one of those roles before the match begings.

IIRC after placements I had rank 51. Dropped to 48 the same day after playing solo. Then gained rank back from playing in a stack. And then... I've played like whole feel of solo.
Currently sitting at rank 32. How low can I drop? >.< people are terrible and solo competetive is a nightmare.

not really Overwatch QQ. But stupid super Patch days at Blizzard. My internet isn't fast, so those take an eternity. I am guilty of playing super evil Pharah alot though. The rocket + shift jump that shoots you up to the sky box ceiling is awesome. No hooks no nothing except Widow can get you there. And most Pharahs don't use it so you can shit on them haha.

-Gets stomped on Volskaya Industries. -De-queues to find a game with different people. -Traveling to Volskaya Industries. -Leaves game, looking for different people/map. -Traveling to Volskaya Industries. -Leaves game, looking for different people/map. -Traveling to Volskaya Industries. -Leaves game, looking for different people/map. -Traveling to Volskaya Industries.
Fuck this idiotic backfill system. If I leave a game before it starts, give me an option to join a different one.

Sometimes I hate this game so much.
I liretally carried the team trough the first round defending at dorado. Soldier 76, 3 gold medals and a silver one. Stopped various ults, one of the best games I've ever played. Team was defending and idiot team mates kept pushing as if they were atacking. Still we managed to stop the payload.
Go into next round, we atack, eneymy team has two healers, Lucio and Mercy, 2 roadhogs, a reaper and some other. What does my team picks? Hanzo, Genji ans Tracer. Told them we need someone like reaper but that i'm not good at him, they don't change. Finally I chnage to reaper, But im not good with him, still we manage to push a Little. Tracer refuses to change. Hanzo and Genji change but its too late and we lose.
Tracer thinsk she was the best ´player from the team because at the end she got more damage than me (we both played soldier the first round). Idiot don't understand that his stupid damage is worth nothing because it was just spam that was healed by lucio and mercy in seconds and we needed héroes that could kill high hp targets fast.

Goddamn, I get so many leavers in my competitive games. And the fact that you still eat a full competitive rank loss when you're playing 5v6 is bullshit -- particularly when the games are close (like losing 2-3 on a control map).
|
Genji should glow when he's using deflect or something else that's super obvious. Literally the only thing that makes me rage in this game is when a Genji kills me from across map when I'm using my ult as McCree.

Alright, When are we going to be able to choose maps like in CS? Out of 10 comp MM games, 6 volskya, 2 hanamura, 2 china tower. Its ridiculous.
Also, WHY ARE THEY LEAVERS IN ALMOST EVERY OTHER GAME?! Why do I even try to play comp MM?! Oh yeah, because I expect there to be players to communicate, coordinate, and try to win as hard as they can. I just get leavers and idiots that don't want to try to coordinate attacks.

My god. Solo Q quickmatch is fucking unplayable. I'm getting matched with people who are in the low rank 40s. I'm currently competitive ranked 57. =|

Rank 63 boys!
The things I deal with now are streamers who lose their fucking minds if they solo queue and lose a game that goes into overtime :/

I am pretty sure that logic is a completely foreign concept for Blizzard. On Temple of Anubis we won the attacking half with 6 mins left. On defence we held untill the last 20 secs. All of a sudden the opponent receives 2 whole minutes to attack. WHY ? We didn't lose at 2 mins left, we lost at 20 seconds left. Give them their 20 secs and that's it - this is what they earned. How does that make any sense ? As soon as the 2nd half ended 1 guy from my team left... Probably because the punishment is non-existant. Now we lost in 5v6... But still, we managed to hold the point for much longer than 20 secs. So basically Blizzard's completely nonsensical and abstract rules won the game for the opponent. Of course after the game I lost whole rank... I mean one man less doesn't mean shit in Blizzard land.

you lost because of a leaver not because the system grants a last attempt, instead of taking away time. Channel your anger towards the right thing.
Anyway today I got the ult feeder card on road hogg. Wow i feel bad now. Game put me in lots of carry your team games though and one thing I can't is carry people. Rip. Oh and I hate the you shouldn't play dbls mentality. Had a 2 Hanzo 2 Zarya thing going and then after a discussion everyone switched around >.< . You also never get a dbl Winston going sigh.
