bro how you kill them now???
had 3 games -2 mauga and 1 ball
mannnn this is unplayable
ball litteraly unkillable is nonstop full health and kills the backline nonstop
and mauga i dont even start
he is standing there and 3 people shooting at him and he stays full hp???
for the love of god give us 5vs5 back
this is ridicilous
its worse than double shield
That’s the thing… You dont
Word has it, there is a game that started this morning after the patch, and it’s been going on all day. Each Mauga is unkillable and they are both sitting on Nepal point one at 0%. Some say, that game will never end until the servers shut down.
Ball is the same as he always was: you either deal with him with stuff like Sombra (maybe Cass?) or he just runs wild, playing his own game. I don’t think this has ever been a good thing, either now or in OW1. Does nobody else remember Sigma Ball, or Hook ‘n’ Ball torture comps? At this point it seems like this is the way it’ll always be with Ball.
Shoegazer made a thread with a clip showcasing how Mauga can survive a turret Bastion shooting him through Bap’s IMAX while being blue beamed. The way to counter Mauga is for all people of the Earth to lend me their ki, so that I can summon a spirit bomb large enough to take him out once and for all. Until that happens, you’re just going to have to deny him hits while he’s glowing the best you can, probably by going Sigma. Good luck, gamer.
ignore them and kill the supports…as always the supports carry the game, always target them first if you can…and if they dont have immortalities up of course cause yanno you gotta play around that busted dogcrap design.
And now, for an Overwatch classic:
>Have to kill Supports
>On Defense as Damage
>Map doesn’t have reliable flank routes by its own
>Not an OWL Sweat so Widowmaker/Hanzo/Ashe consecutive headshots are off the table
>Any long range damage is denied by healing/immortality
>Swaps to Genji to Flank
>Dash+M2+Melee
>One of the Shurikens hits Bap’s arm instead of his head
>225dmg.jpg
>Suzu + Regen Burst go off, instantly nearly at full health
>Entirety of team looks at me with malicious intent
>Burn Reflect to stall for Dash
>Escape that death trap back to your team
>“Omg Genji what are you doing you’re so bad”
As much as I think Reaper is a meme, a dps lineup of like Reaper/Cass actually owns both these tanks
Mauga - you need Ana+Zen. Ana nades his E. Only really works if they don’t have a kiri. She can also sleep his E and if Kiri wakes him then nade. Had a game earlier that this tactic worked a treat and i was on hog who is normally trash into Mauga now.
Ball I don’t know. Also had a game against him earlier and he wouldn’t die. He wasn’t really killing much but he was stalling the payload so much by rolling through we didn’t get very far. I mean, what a dumb tank that can just roll through over and over, go to health pack, and do it again a couple of times with a slam or 2 and build ult, then repeat.
Ball has become a bit of a joke in low ranks where he can win games without bothering to shoot at all.
Hammond every game: it’s bowling time
Mauga, kill supports first. Ball, play as a team, stay grouped, heal through his dives and just ignore him. If you don’t isolate yourself, ball is useless. You don’t need to kill him
Or, at least, until next patch.
D.Va matrix eats his entire haha now, and other abilities that prevent him from doing damage are also substantially better since they eat a much higher pecentage of the duration. Genji deflect and Sigma succ both eat up two thirds (66.67%) of haha’s duration now, up from two fifths (40%). Barriers in general are also much better now against Mauga.
By stacking counters
Mauga: Sigma Ana Zen
Ball: Hog Sombra Brig Zen
Nice way to let him build his ult in super quick time
Hog is still a counter because hook can disrupt him, but the armour changes mean that he’s not going to kill ball pretty much ever.
Hog can’t kill ball by himself. No single hero can. His job is to disrupt ball with hook. Ball will never die if he gets to roll around all game
There is no way, you just can’t, that’s the point of these stupid devs.
You dont. Every tank is Orisa now. You ignore them and only start to fight them, when their team is already dead.
Regardless of derogatory intent, if this patch is what it takes for tanks to be harder to kill than the backline then maybe it’s good for the game. Maybe.
i played rienhardt. Had no problem playing and killing muaga. Ball is more difficult to kill. He has too much mobility compared to Reinhardt. However it isnt always about killing, sometimes taking an all important role out of the equation for a few seconds is the differnce between victory and defeat. which is why i keep winning against ball.
