Contesting while invulnerable

It shouldn’t be possible. When using abilities like wraith form or ice block, that player should no longer count as a player on the point.

Just my opinion.

How about instead “contesting when using mobility should no longer be as thing”.

Use dash? Can’t contest for 5 seconds.

Defense stalling with ice block at the end of an escort is the worst.

Cryo freeze is the biggest offender since it lasts quite a while and nothing can be done about once it’s active. All the other forms of invincibility either only last a second or two, or in the case of Zenyatta it’s an ultimate and you can still potentially move him off of the point.

I think if they just made it so that cryo freeze heals like twice as fast but lasts half as long, then that would go a long ways towards solving cheesey stall “tactics”

I disagree. this is part of the game, good stalling is a skill.

That is so true. It’s just cheap to hold a point in overtime for many seconds while you are immune on point. Wraith certainly shouldn’t contest a point and Mei in the very least shouldn’t have an unbreakable ice block, should be at most as strong as her wall so that you can break it if your team focus fires.

BOB doesn’t appreciate you taking away his something to do.

It’s worth noting that you can contest, but not capture points.
The one thing that needs a change is Bob’s ability to capture points, he should only be able to contest them.

I’m okay with this because Mei herself could be quicker back to the fight as well.

  1. Pick Mei
  2. Wall on point to cover your entrance
  3. Press Shift when wall breaks

You’re right, the skill necessary is incalculable.

at 2nd point hanamura, you can pretend a lamp as hammond to contest point =)

Ok then give Mei deflect while she’s on point. Oh only your hero gets to have survival skills oh ok.

Bob is not too bad. He was always meant to count as an extra player and is not invulnerable. A couple characters working together can easily take on a lone BOB stalling the point.

You know what’s really cheap. Allowing overtime to engage, if someone steps onto the point within 3 seconds of the time running out. If no ones on the point, you lost. Why is there this pass? I love how overtime has this pass. Buttttttt we can’t have a payload area visual. So you know how far you step off the payload to end the match. Why do you help attackers on 2CP, but not payloads?

How’s that even remotely comparable?

So… Mei uses ice block and just instantly loses the point?

That doesn’t feel great either… it goes both ways.
