So recently i thought i would give widow and hanzo a go and it was whenever i killed the enemy widow they would curse at me in chat or make a excuse for me killing them.
Even on my own team this smurf went widow and after he died alot to the enemy widow i asked if i could give it a shot and he just went for on toxic and just started insulting me to the core.
So do all these players have small egos or just the onces who smurf and get beaten by a gold player?
Well, it’s a common trend that characters that depend extremely heavily on marksmanship/headshots in a game tend to attract the more… how do I put this…?
Egotistical sorts.
Though if you play Widow or Hanzo extensively in OW then you’re probably subject to flaming often from all sources regardless of how well you do.
I can kinda get people who play widow having a big ego (though that’s still sad) but hanzo? A blind leprechaun can play hanzo and get a few lucky headshots.
I play a lot of sombra and hanzo is one of the easier dps to kill because of his hitbox. They do get really mad at me and curse/send nasty messages. Probably second behind Rein players but that’s understandable
No, they aren’t lol. I was the one who prompted Geoff Goodman to address the size of Hanzo’s projectiles.
They are tied with objects like Genji’s shuriken for smallest objects in the game. Genji’s shuriken do not 1 shot and are actually enormous for projectiles btw.
Why would you disprove your own thing. you said they where like boulders. but yet they are the smallest projectile in the same.
Also you know projectiles have to be alil bigger then a hitscan thing right you do know the difference. Try hitting someone with a very small pixel that has travel time.
If Genji’s shuriken are one of the smallest objects in the game but are still enormous then it stands to reason that projectiles in Overwatch are not relatively “small” by any definition of the word.
While I disagree that a particular main has a particular ego (since I don’t believe people’s attitudes to be universally defined by a single hero choice), the people you described would most likely have big egos, thus get upset when they are challenged.
For some reason if Genji’s shuriken were capable of one shotting and then in addition to this Genji also possessed the ability to make his projectiles fire at hitscan speed, I doubt you would hold the same stance on the matter.
it makes sense for projectiles like Genji and Lucio’s weapons generate to be big because they do not 1 shot.
Hanzo’s projectiles move at an even faster rate and the hero is rewarded with the lethality of a headshot for a shot to the chest.
