Highlight My 16 yo daughter just hit GM 💙

Post image
4.7k Upvotes

My daughter skipped school today to go to the gym with me and play video games all day and I couldn’t be more proud of her 😅

We’ve been playing together since she was 7, she ranked platinum right away and stayed there for years.

A few years ago she got to diamond and I stayed in platinum.

She started playing on pc and I stayed on Xbox.

She’s been master on pc for about a year, so I went on a grind to try to rank up so I could play with her again.

I was so pumped today because I finally hit DIAMOND and I was excited to play comp with her again, then I come upstairs to tell her and I see she’s 1 win away from GM.

Well she won and now we can’t play together once again, but I’m super proud of her 🎉

(So she’s currently GM on Xbox and Master 2 on PC)

News & Discussion After watching FNAF2, I thought it could be fun if they did a FNAF x Overwatch Collab

Post image
• Upvotes

I just watched the 2nd FNAF movie and thought it'd could be fun if they had a collab with Overwatch. I'm not really a FNAF fan (pretty much only watched the movies and some of the Gametheory videos), but I do like the animatronics (they're really awesome in the movies).

For some reason I spent way to much time photoshoping my ideas badly for fun (as I can't really draw).

If they're not obvious, it's Reinhardt as Freddy, Roadhog as Foxy, Orisa as Chica and Junker Queen as Bonnie. I made them all as tanks as the animatronics in the movie just gave a very heavy feeling.

I love the Roguelike elements of the perks it makes it so fun. Friends and I have been really enjoying the chaos 🤣
Compared to stadium I love the quickness of the rounds. the cards make it seem fairer. I also think the choice of 3 characters and not being able to lock in a role makes me play new heroes I love it.

Hey I saw the news on Ovetwatch Cavalry https://x.com/owcavalry/status/2111053474528157800?s=46 about the contest winners in China and I noticed that DVa skin pretty similar to a design I did back in 2015 and damn there’s no way that was just a casualty, it’s definitely a ripoff of my design 💀

What do you think?

Here’s a speed painting uploaded to YouTube 10 years ago https://youtu.be/N1XB2uCobpw?si=83VOXwSyDZQcmyS3

Replay code if you are interested 8F1D9X

I played the Juno in this match.

Our mercy spend most of the match spinning in circles then left then came back, spun in more slow circles, and left again.

They missed a really great game. Our DPS did a great job using the space our Hog provided. And our hog put on a class on cycling his cooldowns using his breather.

I was basically a frantic flying squirrel who tried not to make too many mistakes( I made alot of mistakes). But thankfully my team pulled through in a rather convincing fashion.

I hope our mercy enjoyed the notification of the win.

News & Discussion How do you guys not feel bitter/frustrated about your heroes getting worse quality skins (or barely/no skins) than others?

Post image
• Upvotes

I can't help but feel frustrated when I see the kinds of skins some heroes gets and quality/effort the developers put into them while the rest get the content that has visibly less care put into it

For example how I waited so long for Soldier76 to get a mythic skin and they completely half-assed it with visibly less effort in it than other even recent mythics such as less details/colors in armor, less special effects/barely visible base VFX, less and boring unique voicelines and so on.

Or his Street Fighter skin for example on the picture that's mostly a recolor of his default skin while others got great looking skins. Or how they tend to keep him in the more default themes with only a few exceptions SINCE OW2 started like Class President 76, Charming76 or Heist76.

Or another hero I like Torbjorn who doesnt even get skins. Or Winston who also when rarely gets something it's usually worse than others'.

And it's not even about the popularity and how much money a hero brings in, because from my examples both Soldier76 and Winston are popular and among the most recognized faces of Overwatch

I shouldn't care about it, but can't help feeling this way when I see something one of the Blizzard/devs' favored heroes have and think why can't the hero I love have things like that?

"duude if the omnic crisis never happened Juno and Ana would 100% be maids bro trust me" yeah sure, whatever. even the hospital doomfist one doesnt make sense because the crisis is the reason he lost his arm and eventually got the gauntlet, why would he be hospitalised?

I can also see Reaper as Badtz-Maru (I want Ram though), and maybe Bap as Pochacco if i’m being real. Idk why I wrote Reaper at the bottom ignore that

I've been queueing for all roles for the challenge and it's miiiiiiiiiiiserable, you'll die without getting a single heal, look at replay and your healer is emoting at the enemy Lucio or something

How much of a masochist do you have to be to enjoy the role?

News & Discussion How to counter (make them swap) Mei

Post image
222 Upvotes

TLDR: as a tank how to counter mei (and some hate to mei mains, sorry but not sorry in advance)

Im tired of this bitch when im tank

No matter if i play far with sigma or domina, this fatass shoots literal logs, or if i play close junker, ramattra, d.mon she just has a stupid stun in primary fire, a prison, an escape button and in both cases, the biggest stun area i have seen in any game as an ult.

I want to know what to do, i primaly main Junker, Domina and Ram, the frustation is so big i lose beacuse i have to be so cautious with her on the game.

And for the mains, its not fait to have a primary fire that does not need aim and does lots of damage AND stun, a secondary fire thats basically the primary fire of all other sinpers, a panic button that heals and lets you choose when to come out, another panic button in the form of a wall that can trap people, and a area stun that the only way out is if i already dashin before it lands.

i really was hoping d.mon was gonna have this insane gamer rage like in normal situations she’s fine but if anything is even slightly competitive then she’s losing her mind. i thought maybe she’d also have this character growth where she has to try and not snap at the meka squad and learn to be a level headed leader.

alas

edit : “it wouldn’t be realistic for her to be mad, but why isn’t she skinny” y’all are so silly
