Regarding Genji, that explains a lot.
I have a friend who started maining genji during the beta, and just never stops talking about the “old, better, genji” lol, I guess I can see why now
lol oh yeah he was a monster
there is a clip of seagull in quickplay really early on before comp even released (it may of even been on release), and its an anubis attack that only lasted like 1minute because he snow balled them so hard

Did any of you remember to rate the match quality after the end of each game?

Level 1 turrets too. Where the hammer wasn’t just a tool to fix… but a tool to evolve.
And this mode layout

Bastion shield anyone?
I remember i used to 1trick classic torb, then i stopped playing, and when I returned to the game i did so bad on new torb it sent me to bronze
I really wish they’d let you choose patch iterations for heroes in custom games at least. Would be fun to get custom matches going, running 2017 metas.
don’t forget Genji Super Dash and triple jump
junk’s ult could kill himself
Roadhog hook 1.0
Hanzo Scatter arrow
Imagine Role Queue with the old 4 Roles
Attack
Defense
Tank

I miss support Sym and Torb.
Dieing of my own ult as DVA was hillarious
Started playing Overwatch during its first beta.
So yeah, I was there and I remember.
Things that will shock people:
Level 3 wasn’t a very good ult.
Mass Rez Mercy was underpowered.
Torb scrap… actually I did forget about that one.
Reaper Souls were bugtastic.
You forgot to mention Symmetra’s delightful lock on beam, which she used to make Genji cry.
Oh yeah and remember when Defense Matrix was an all-in ability?!

Yes and tbf… with the current knowledge of the game, I think its good that everything was changed. Especially now with OW2, everything would just be clunky AF.
Oh man before arcade mode there was actually unique brawls and not just existing gamemodes + team deathmatch
As non-existent as this was, I really miss this
Stacking Torb Armor, Brig Repair Pack, Sym Shields and Brig’s Rally.
JQ has nothing on the old Overhealwatch
I remember all of it. I remember everything on this list. The 75 hp you’d gain from Scraps. The Mass Rezzes I pulled off reviving 3 players at a time. Everything. I even remember Orisa’s 200 Ammo on release. Sombra’s Invisibility on a Timer. I was there for almost every single change in the game.
What do you mean? This IS the documentary. We’re living it.
They took Tracer, removed her butt pose, and what else? They still haven’t shown her feet.
It’s like they took a diamond and turned it into coal.
- Symmetra shield
- Junkrat damaging himself
- Scatter arrow
- Genji bleed damage (beta)
- Bastion self-shield (beta)
- Brigitte stun
- Reaper’s old teleport
- 8 second blade
Ah, the good old days when OW had soul to its design even if it was mostly ridiculous stuff, it was still fun and competitiveness was not even a thought. Oh, how times change where everything is watered down and boring now and we’re even losing entire identity by allowing crossover skins into the game. Sad and pathetic.
I long for the good old days, it is too bad we can’t just go back.
