My last season, Hmmm my struggle points this season mainly had to do with Balancing, heros like Tracer, Dva, Genji were to OP on console for me to win as much as I’d like multiple games I’d be winning would be turned around literally by someone just locking Tracer and having more kills then everyone in the lobby combined.
There was also a Pharahmercy meta annnnd Im a Lifeweaver player sooo that’s self explanatory.
My rank actually went down temporarily dropped to plat 3 actually now back to diamond 5 and stopping there for now.
I don’t feel I did anything wrong I don’t even feel my 4 horseman of the apocalypse weren’t good enough, everytime It just came down to broken hero after broken hero.
There’s also calculating my loses from dook 1 tricks on my team, my strategies for dealing with them have been successful so far with varrying degrees of win loses, I need to say to doom players ult to heal at the start of the match always alwayd ult to heal never anything else cause that’s just throwing. This 1 thing I’ve noticed all season has been what seperates the bad dooms from the good ones regardless of the circumstances yes even to finish a kill.
I know Weavers being buffed but it didn’t even feel like he was “Bad” it just felt like everyone else was soooo damn ridiculous, I had genuine fun fighting Cassidy this season tho his damage is indeed insane but he’s a duelist dps Im a duelist support he’s suppose to have some advantage but ehh maybe like a 0.5 or 1 damage nerf or something.
Bastion was fun to play against this season.
I figured out how to effectively fight Junkrat I only learned this this season soooo issue number 2 is gonna be getting my dumb as hell teammates to realize what a flank is and that you should not fight Junkrat head on.
Illari was ridiculous if I don’t break the pylon it was just game, and I needed to dedicate allll of my team energy and resources just to break that thing sometimes and still she has enough damage to just make life a living hell if you decide to actually do the thing that counters her, definitely definitely needs a nerf this isn’t a question.
Everyone probably has like thoughts on Mauga, still annoying as hell as ever to fight and virtually unkillable for a hero like Lifeweaver good thing I got 4 other heros 2 of them being the legendary meta heros Bap and Illari everyones so gitty about, still not enjoyable fighting him btw unless I have a Zen or Ana and even if I pick those heros I need my other support to compliment it sometimes…
All this to say I mean yeaaahh he’s tolerable he’s beatable, it’s just absolutely nothing about interacting with the guy brings me any form of joy.
I’ve also lost a lot to Ball by not switchinf even last point and just saying screw my ult because people don’t know Ball actually haaarrrd counters Lifeweaver like on the same level as Pharah, playing Lifeweaver into ball is low key throwing.
A lot of situations I did just feel like a regular hero on Par with that of Lucio, Ana, Kiriko, Moira was a slight issue, Mercy was a Majjor issue seriously people camp the damn rez but I think I know how to stop it with petal platform now.
When I was against Like Bap illari, Tracer, genji, Mauga, hell Zarya for some damn reason if my tank didn’t switch game was just done, dosen’t matter how good Inwas doing or what I switched to, Brig honestly ain’t good as she needs to be to keep high mobility in check, as well as her struggling to break Illari pylon unless she gets close makes herself extreamly vulnerable and swings on it.
Lifeweaver honestly felt really good to play within himself I could tell I was contributing and the hero was functioning kust fine when he did, but then the already good heros who received even more buffs would come out the wood works and the game just became a chore at that point…
People being out of coms as well and us solos still getting stacks Zzzzzzzzz, people stay out of coms for various reasons and I respect that but as a shot caller (Which is my primary skill and I will accept no disrespect for someones skill weather that be positioning game sense etc in my post thank you), having people constantly out of voice just doing the dumbest thing they could possibly think of like there directly trying to lose is just no, I’ve had to re think about how I use Lifegrip and how to position early just to fix the dumb play I know there gonna make, If I get 1 more Soldier76 visoring from the low ground Im gonna slap somebody, I don’t care if it reloads your gun like since when was that a reason for that to be a low ground ultimate, you have a damn Lifeweaver hell YOU HAVE A SPRINT there’s not a single damn reason I should be seeing as many Soldiers visoring from the low ground as Im seeing, Oh the enemy soldier visored from high and killed everyone instead of worrying about reloading? Geeee I wonder why that happened.
Oh yeah and Venture… I have absolutely no idea how to play against this crooked tooth mo… I mean this delightful new character added to the game tbh… legitimately no idea.
