Points of interest: A) go to masteroverwatch.com and see if you're ranked. Apparently, a bunch of the pros are ranked on this site. Wolfeyez and I are both on the list.
huh. Apparently, I am not, in fact, the world's worst Mercy; I'm actually like the 9500th best. Who knew.

Still need practice though

Anyone ever get the impression that the fights these super heroes get in... are a LOT more bloody then even normal police shoot outs?

Overwatch is like if Marvel was nothing but the Punisher.

Everyone's superpower is Gun and everyone's weakness is Bullet.

And when I think about it the technology they often use aren't anything that is exceptional for the universe they live in (quite a few of them use standard issue weapons).

Maybe... the Overwatch universe should train better cops.

The Overwatch definition of superhero isn't the same thing as DC or Marvel.  They aren't vigilantes, they're former soldiers, scientists, and criminals who happen to be in a position to make a difference.

The shorts also make it pretty clear that these guys are a big deal compared to the average fighter this universe.  See: in Alive and Dragons, the squishy snipers casually take out several armed guards at close range.

You misspelled seance.  Are possessing Draignean?  Are you actually a ghost in the shell? You have to tell us if you are, that's the rule

Superhero: a Hero with Super Powers. There are exceptions generally (which is a Superhero styled hero) but yeah that is the definition.

But judging that they all carry guns and their powers seem to be exclusively geared towards combat, yeah I am going to go with that they are either Vigilantes or NRA representatives.

Ones with a life outside of vigilante work... but then again most heroes who aren't Batman do.

Wow, that line was pulled farther out of place than a suitless D. Va hooked by Roadhog.

You are being so obtuse right now.

Loving Roadhog more and more. He's turning into my go-to guy for carrying really oblivious teams that aren't terrible mechanically. That pick potential on the hook counters a lot of stuff that tears up unorganized teams, the self-heal means you don't need to rely on whatever idiot pulled healer, and his ult is basically just a free few seconds where nobody can touch the objective. <3 fatty, just stand beside the cart and tell all the Tracers and Pharahs to fuck off.

Great game. A few balance issues that I don't really mind that much (McCree, Widowmaker), but other than that it feels fantastic to play. Typical Blizzard game polish.

Yeah, Widow... like, give the sniper a hitscan weapon and mobility, sure, but don't also give them good CQC tools. For how simple her kit is she's got too much in it, given that she can oneshot almost anyone. Hanzo at least has the tradeoffs of requiring you to be able to aim and play at mid-range instead of from the back of the map.

I gotta say, the only thing I really want them to add, aside from more maps, is an audio cue when you hit someone. That ding from TF2 is just so damn satisfying to hear.
