Why do you play comp?

Competitive Discussion

I do it because it’s my life’s goal to reach silver someday. Realistically it’ll never happen, but I try anyway.

44

Because i want golden weapons

45

I like to hurt myself.

i play all overwatch modes just to have fun, but i prefer competitive because i find it annoying when players are constantly leaving and new ones take their place

I love the game. It’s intense, varied, and full of interesting mechanics. I love strategizing and getting the most value I can out of my favorite characters.

Emm…I used to play comp because it was longer than quick play. Not necessary more interesting. I feel quick play is more interesting. I also used to play because of golden guns. And also just to see where I can rank up to.

But I noticed comp was just about try Harding. I hate trying hard in a game. And unlike quick play the atmosphere is so dark in comp. So now I just play for the heck of it. It’s still longer than quick play. And I haven’t finished my golden gun collection. Have about 3 or 4more to go. So I’m gringing.

Quick play will always be my best mode. Not because it’s relaxed. I’m relaxed either way qp or comp and I do try my best in comp because I know I’m not the only one there so I have to play my part. But because Quick play let’s me play against all SR brackets. And I get to see what it could be like in higher ranks. Whenever I play with or against GMs I feel good. I don’t want to play against my rank all the time knowing they can’t carry nothing. It feels nice to get carried once in a while I’m just keeping it real

I play for golden weapon points, no point trying to climb and improve as you get penalised unless you improve dramatically vs your team.

53

I play comp because I want my team to try and I want to better myself.
the golden guns are just icing on the cake

54

idk it makes me hate people… freaking afker’s… this is a new low for throwers… -triggered-

Comp.points to get gold guns =)
Tbh havent played in ages, so this season placements didn’t go so well, even tho i healed my team as if i were the only healer alive (lmao wtf) As said me playin comp won’t happen again, had afk people every match and like 4 leavers in 10 matches. Just hope that there will be other ways to get comp.points =’)

I play comp because I enjoy the difficulty.

I also like the mental aspect of it. I like long matches. Quickplay is fun but it feels too short.

57

Well, i can think of 1: You haven’t played comp…

58

Yes, so how can I say why I play it then?

59

Comp. Solo Q. Voice off. Chat off. Brigette ON!
Best way to play this game, the caps lock of FUN! (Not for the enemy, they are miserable :slight_smile: )

I enjoy listening to teenage boys argue.

61

Because the game is more fun with tanks and healers. If you play those roles in quick play it’ll be solo healing or solo tanking for 4-5 DPS. That’s literally the only reason I play comp.

Serious post.

I was playing to see how far I could climb, but I had a change of heart and now in playing to have serious fun and that means my team having tons of fun too.
Good thing they have an awsome Brigette 1 trick to enable all their crazy antics!!!

I play competitive because I really like the game and I’m a sadist.

65

Gold weapons. Also i sometimes want to play the game without 6+ snipers in one lobby or just a somewhat balanced game. But that’s only good until the wanabe pros appear.
