Drives: Season 3

So far, my Drives is not going well! :sweat_smile:

Played D.Va for two matches in Stadium. In both matches, my teammates left and it ended in Stomps. So im switching to DPS Support now and seeing if I fair better. :crossed_fingers:

Absolutely love the art design for this Season. Like Galactic Rock Sprites! :star_struck::heart_eyes::partying_face::milky_way::rock:

Today is not a good day to be DPS, apparently. It’s typically the heavy one in my games.
But I got to the second checkpoint. And that’s about what I aim for in the first day.

Doing very well. A lot of winstreaks and few losses. Will be done by tomorrow. Only playing DPS.

Got the first checkpoint in 3 games of stadium and now I’m out of there, see you all in season 4

Idk it was my first time playing comp stadium in a while and it kinda seems like a mess right now like so many nice items were hard nerfed but then like the enemy team’s torbjorn turns into saxton hale every time he presses the e button so idk what’s going on. They hard buffed my precious heal field build at least

I actually kinda wanna play more but the problem is I don’t know if I wanna play enough to get to the 3rd checkpoint

stadium is dead but I hope it’s not dead dead for a while since it is still elite for drives

Oooof

If i have a losing streak like that, im quitting Drives.

I had one in season 1, and it was mostly really close stadium matches, it took me like 4 hours to do the first checkpoint, psychic pain

I remember that. The Season before Reign of Talon was awful!

It actually took my Gangsta Girlfriend and I four hours this time. I am probably going to give up on Reinhardt to be perfectly honest. Dmon is the future.

to tell you the truth im gonna be playing palworld until dmon drops so im ignoring drives completely this time around

i did them last season and while it was a relatively average overwatch experience it still wasnt really worth it

i mean youd have to dangle something crazy in front of me to get me to play comp at this point, im talking mythic prisms or even premium coins because i simply do not care about competitive points

About as usual, which means countless losses and just barely enough wins to maybe get to the second signature tier. If I’m lucky. And if I don’t lose my damn mind first.

Seriously, something as simple as removing the loss penalty (seriously, why IS it even there in the first place? Who the hell profits from it???) would alleviate tons of stress and negativity. Not nearly all of it, but enough to somewhat accept the drives.

Playing a totally different game until they are gone so I can have some semblance of match quality lol.
Drives need to be fired into the sun post haste! Worst idea ever. I would say to fire whoever came up with it but the forums ban your account for “threats” now if you say some random person should be fired, cause its run by chad DVD

I played around 8 or 9 matches last night I think, won half and lost half queued as solo support in low plat. People were particularly grumpy last night, mostly testy DPS players. Some of the games were winnable but then became guaranteed loss because of infighting. A lot of noise thrown at tanks that wasn’t justified.

One game was particularly interesting but also exhausting at the same time. Played against a team on Control that just wanted to mirror whatever our team chose. Ball, Anran, Genji, LW, and Mercy/Kiri. The ball players were practically unkillable, paired up with Anran and it was ENDLESS STALLING :joy: . We lost but it was a really close match and nobody was raging.

YIKES I think I would have just called it around game six or so. Sorry to hear they’ve been that dreadful.

This is always how you know drives are up haha. I think leavers skyrocket.

It’s been going alright for me, I got the 1000 points yesterday. But I queued up with a friend to make it more bearable.
