Already answered the question. Look at your own game play and adapt. To expound, if you’re the Mercy and you aren’t getting value of the mercy then you’re not adapting.
Your hero picking argument is riddled with conflicting validation requirements. No one has agreed with you and the same point is being conveyed over and over, focus on yourself. I’m inclined to believe that you’re trolling tbh. I have to give you the benefit of the doubt that you’re not really this detached from reality.
Mystery heroes is fun and I learn a lot cause I try so much heroes that I would not pick in normal game.^^ I found out that some of them are actualy fun and started to play them also in normal modes. But still, when I wanna have fun and don´t care about game - this is the best mode cause it doesn´t matter that much. But I guess it also screws my stats a lot.
If teammates were good with various picks, even if their hours dont show it, leading to wins more often, I wouldn’t be concerned.
But that’s not the case. In fact, I tried not being concerned much & just play a few times(mainly when doing those bs “challenges” that lock a skin behind 9 mandatory wins), didnt turn out well.
No. Im not the one going with a trash pick. And no amount of heals will help shieldless Hog or Hammond. No amount of dmg boosting will help a player that goes Widow but misses shots. That bs is my fault?
No you didnt.
If Im not getting value from Mercy its because of crappy teammates that pick DPS, shieldless Hog & Hammond instead of Rein & Zarya. Meaning no defense for me & no pocketing for them. And if a terrible Tank teammate does pick Rein, they overextend & charge in alot. Try blaming that crap on me.
Wanting good team set-ups & no trash picks means Im trolling? Go ahead and use that typical term if you want. In fact, it shows that you Mercy cannot carry. She cannot win without Rein & Zarya present.
Overwatch isn’t Paladins, Healers are screwed if their teammates suck.
One more thing, Mystery Heroes is rigged. The game decides whuch team gets all the good picks and which doesn’t. Its not fun to be stuck with characters that cannot counter Doomfist, Genji, 2 Pharahs, etc.
Plats and below are ashamed of their rank so they need the private profile option omegalul
It is required by law in most places.
How are they supposed to find excuses to flame you if they can’t comment on your past game history.
But you just confirmed my remarks, yes? The loss is never your fault. That’s why you want to see the profile – you need to find someone to pass the blame to since introspection is, evidently, painful.
Nice rhetoric. 
That’s not mastering a hero. The only way you can know if you’re improving on a hero is if you climb in rank. In which case, you still can’t tell people who are in the same MMR than you that they should only play the heroes they have the most time on.
Dude, I don’t care about your excuse? The whole point of me calling it out was so I could dismiss it. As I already said, it’s a poor excuse that doesn’t change the fact that a handful of individuals have invested thousands of hours in Overwatch but stay in the same rank for more of their competitive career.
No excuse you can make up will change this fact so I suggest you stop trying.
I’m a console player. Don’t speak on behalf of “most” console players.
Uno:
in response to me questioning why people feel the need to see other people’s profiles. You’re clearly insinuating that hero profile stats (mainly time played) reflect how good you are with that hero.
Dos:
in response to me saying:
Tres:
In response to be saying:
The above is referring to your point about how your best hero is the one you have most hours on
I’m kinda over this. If you don’t even understand what you’re replying to, just stop arguing and dragging this on. We’re clearly not getting anyway if all you’re going to do is say no and retract your previous statements. Well, more like you just forget they existed.
I dont have to find anyone, all I got to do is see how terrible they are as Widow, or see that they pick Hog & Hammond, which btw,shows that they’re just DPS players that queue for Tank just to get in a match faster. And crap like that happens 99% of the time.
I don’t play DPS much at all and I play both Roadhog and Hammond.
Yes I did, twice. Your refusal to accept the answer isn’t on me.
Never said your straw men weren’t infallible. It’s been said many times that you have no control over them only yourself. You have to adapt. If you refuse to adapt then you have to accept the outcome. Entitlement does not negate accountability.
Everyone wants a good team setup. This level of denial however comes across as trolling. Perhaps I am giving your intelligence too much benefit of the doubt. Also the focus on Mercy carrying really gives it away.
Overwatch also isn’t World of Warcraft, The Witcher 3, or League of Legends. I’m confused why we had to list what it’s not but I guess that’s what trolling does. Distract from the point.
Lol sorry mate I’m not gonna bite on another hook.
How winning with a certain character, not mastering them? And Comp isnt where the majority of the playerbase is.
Keep calling a fact an excuse. In fact, DPS players that have thousands of hours in on characters are just fine in Comp.
Says the person that tried saying otherwise about voice chat o consoles. Just because you bumped into players using it,doesn’t mean others have.
Lastly, none of those quotes say Most Played. I shouldn’t have had to be clear on the part about hours spent, but apparently I do. If a player picks someone that that have no hours in on, they’re throwing. I know players tend to have Top 10s or Top 5s, not just one favored pick. If they pick a character they just never used or barely did, and never switched, that’s when there’s an issue.
After 4 years, why pick anyone else aside from your best picks?(besides having enough of going nerfed to death Tank or Healer). I dont see the point of doing that when the result will be a loss.
They’re just DPS. In fact, what about the real Tanks, do you play as any of them?
The trash teammates are the ones that have to adapt. Not me. No wonder you spout adapt, you use DPS Lucio, Ashe & DM among other DPS. Only DPS can do so much no matter what the team has.
Mercy cant do that. She cant deal big damage & isn’t all that mobile(without teammates, her glide is useless). She cant win alone and because Blizzard designed her the way she is & keeps making actual Healers weaker. The player cant do anything to change that.
Paladins is an OW clone, but far better overall. I bring it up because Healers there arent team-reliant. They can do alot alone, they can adapt. But not Overwatch’s Healers.
They’re definitely tanks, my dude.
I’m starting to understand why you lose so often.
Then ask in text chat?
They’re tanks. Stop with this no true scotsman bs
Hog & Hammond dont have shields.
They dont rely on pocketing.
They have op damage & solo survivability.
The complete opposite of Rein & the rest. They’re DPS. And if you use that Off-Tank term, that just further proves it.
Consoles dont have that.
Classical tanks don’t have shields. They have high HP with self-heals or damage mitigation abilities. Roadhog and Hammond both fit the classical tank archetype.
Then too bad. Private profiles are here to stay, so either deal with them or get a pc.
No they dont. They’re not like Rein & other Tanks.
I dont see Rein with op self-heals. I don’t see Orisa or DVA with op adaptive shields. Oh, and Sigma’s Kinetic Grasp is nowhere near Hammond’s adaptive shield, he still dies quick.
Hog & Hammknd are DPS with far more health. And thanks to them not having barriers, they’re feeders.
I actually swap between DPS Lucio, peel Lucio, and speeding deathball Lucio because… Adaptation. And when I lose on Lucio I don’t blame the other healer, dps, or tanks. I watch my replay to look at my mistakes and try to improve in the next game. Some times I even find that, gasp, Lucio while my most time played is the WRONG PICK. That’s on me.
I’ve swapped off Ashe lately for Honzo and Widow. Impending Ashe nerf keeps me from wanting to get used to her current power level. But I can say that Mercy pocketing an Ashe is pretty stronk. Not sure who DM is.
Mercy is one of the more mobile healers… No one can win alone… This is exactly where you smack of trolling.
Never played it, don’t care about it.
You don’t need to see anyone’s profile to make your game play better. You need to inspect your own replays an fix your mistakes. Get some wrinkles in that Overwatch brain cause it’s pretty smooth right now.
Yeah, they do. I’m not sure what sorts of MMOs you’ve played, but tanks generally don’t have group protection measures. They have one job – to draw aggro and get beat upon by the enemy so that the comparatively squishy DPS and healers don’t. That’s what they do. It’s actually the Reins, Orisas and Sigmas of the world that are the neo-tanks.
