WHAT IN THE HEAVEN’S REASONS DO YOU HAVE TO NOT SWAP TO COUNTER DIVE DPS WHEN ENEMY IS DIVING HARD AND YOU ARE CLEARLY LOSING TRADE???

Nah dont worry, I am going to get a sick play and insta cap all of them
yes because genji counters everything and is broken op11e!1
I always get Anas and Zens who don’t switch when the enemy Doom and Genji just keep killing them for free 
Can’t forget the Bap players!
When i play Rein as the only shield i always seem to get Doom/Reaper/Junk/Sym when playing against a Pharah who dont switch then call me a thrower when i switch to Hammond to deal with her
lol and i wonder why. ppl keep complaining and wanting to nerf brig and moira, yet on the other hand most of them cant stand teammate support playing “weak” support…
i would have do the same. lol. but i will be winston hiding in the shadow waiting for a good time to engage. no more tanking in the front!!!
Well, one thing role queue exposed was that there are a lot more one trick players out there than we all suspected. Damage was no exception, and may have been packed with the most one tricks per capita.
Think people would have picked up a few more characters in their favorite role by now, but apparently not.
yea, tbh it is really annoying to have that. i would have flex around all characters if it is not working out, that’s why i dont know how their mind work lol
OP, you left your caps lock on
At this point, a role specialist should have a variety of characters they are comfortable with to cover a variety of playstyles. I don’t think anyone expects anyone to have mastered every character in a role, particularly one as wide as damage.
Bur knowing a hitscan, a brawler, and a diver is a must these days for damage mains. You need to be flexible in role.
The biggest thing that always confused me is DPS shouting & moaning for a shield tank them disappearing on flanks not standing behind your shield, like what is the point?
Cuz I waited 12 minutes to play Doomfist, bro.
I honestly don’t think they are DPS mains. I’m just saying.
WHAT IN THE HEAVEN’S REASONS DO YOU HAVE TO NOT SWAP TO COUNTER HITSCAN DPS WHEN ENEMY IS DIVING HARD AND YOU ARE CLEARLY LOSING TRADE???
IS IT SO HARD TO SWAP OFF ZARYA AND HOG, THEN GET A SHIELD OR BALL WHEN ENEMY’S WIDOW, SOLDIER IS CLEARLY HEADSHOTTING YOU ALL BACKSIDE AROUND LIKE A BUNCH OF SQUIRRELS WITH A BANJO???
OMGOSH, THESE TANK MAIN’S EGO. WDH.
im sorry. but these TANK mains triggered me hard.

IS IT SO HARD TO SWAP OFF ZEN AND LUCIO, THEN GET ANA/MOIRA OR BRIG WHEN ENEMY’S DF, HAMMOND IS CLEARLY BAITING YOU ALL BACKSIDE AROUND LIKE A BUNCH OF KOALA’S WITH A XYLOPHONE???
OMGOSH, THESE SUPPORT MAIN’S EGO. WDH.
im sorry. but these SUPPORT mains triggered me hard.
in these day and age where a person will want to suffer 10+ minute queue, most of them are dps mains lol
but still the tanks cant kill those widow and soldier. unlike junk’s trap who can clearly trap hammond and df.
same as these lol, i have seen more genji mains that zen mains or lucio mains tbh
I feel like you missed the point.
i know, you want to say that every role has the same issue.
and what im saying that it is not. dps’s only responsibility is to kill, nothing else lol
unlike tank and support.
Fine.
In regards to my first comment, ya no the shield tank won’t kill the Widow but having a shied makes their widow less oppressive (as does a Ball harasser) which opens up so much freedom for your DPS to do their job and their supports to aid them in doing their job; it’s not just about straight killing it’s about enabling and mitigating…
Second comment is totally subjective but I’ve seen a lot of Zen’s lately (which I didn’t). I’ve also seen a lot of Lucio’s but I feel like that is more or less normal… sort of besides the point because Ana/Brig/Moira are meta-near meta anyway and are a huge answer to dive and grant ample support to DPS mains being able to do anything without being knocked around like bowling pins to begin with, especially if you’re the team being dove on.
But you’re right, the main point was absolutely every role has their own issues and DPS, although they do have high impact, still need to work with the synergy granted to them by their team members to operate at max efficiency, especially if the other team is already doing that.
I just don’t get or appreciate these diary-styled posts and the value (or lack of) they are actually bringing to the forums let alone the community; is it meant to hope that 1 or 2 dps players might read this and go “Oh, finally, yes this was the answer I was looking for, now I will practice this and never lose a round or upset my teammates again”.
It’s a waste of space, IMO, and all it does is highlight tribalism and ignorance that doesn’t actually offer any progressive insight for someone to reflect on.
Without sounding too rude…
nope, just a rant, and let them know that this is not correct. even though it is not bannable. i dont mind them trying for 1 match, but after 1, they noticed it is not working well and enemy is steamrolling, they should swap.
well, dps queue only players are pretty selfish imo. that’s how this all rolled harder and harder.
they only want to play what they want. and more and more ppl queuing up in the same role, increase queue time. owl balance patches not helping, increase more queue time, dps players say they deserve to play what they want after queuing for so long and refuse to swap, make other players unhappy, less play time from these players, add more queue time. dps players longer queue, much more unhappy, alot more reason not to swap.
this is why i have 20+ second tank queue, 10+minute dps queue and 5 minute support queue in my server lol
these endless cycles lol
