nothing felt solid

2017-10-11 13:37:55 UTC  

hots is the most barebones moba out there

2017-10-11 13:41:58 UTC  

takes a while to get used to

2017-10-11 13:42:10 UTC  

i think its awesome

2017-10-11 13:44:36 UTC  

well

2017-10-11 13:44:51 UTC  

in my opinion, i feel like the way blizzard handles balancing is bad

2017-10-11 13:45:52 UTC  

well i guess its the result of having the community decide balancing for you, not the grandmasters/top500 players who actually have some credibility behind what they say, but the golds who make up the majority of the community.

2017-10-11 13:46:55 UTC  

someone called mercy's buff/nerf ass and said jeff should replace the balancing team. they got banned for 30 days without even breaking any of the community guidelines.

2017-10-11 13:48:23 UTC  

well i think thats different on games

2017-10-11 13:48:29 UTC  

they are HORRIBLE on hearthstone balancing

2017-10-11 13:48:34 UTC  

pretty fine on hots

2017-10-11 13:48:38 UTC  

blizzard always add a huge patch at once without incrementally changing the heroes over the season. the result is that no one can keep up with that one change and metas no longer work. it's depressing when mercy one trick players cant even play mercy anymore because of her rework. they're probably going to implement an actual fix to the character rework after a week like they usually do. eg bastion's buff

2017-10-11 13:48:43 UTC  

overwatch seems fine too

2017-10-11 13:49:02 UTC  

not really, they nerfed defense matrix and buffed mercy and junkrat.

2017-10-11 13:49:31 UTC  

anyways, when bastion released it was essentially whoever supports the bastion the best wins the game. which in of itself was pretty sad, and blizzard took a week to actually fix the issue.

2017-10-11 13:49:37 UTC  

Ni hao

2017-10-11 13:50:19 UTC  

now any decent gm levelled player can shit on the other team as junkrat whereas before buff he used to be a character that required some amount of skill and gamesense to play

2017-10-11 13:50:25 UTC  

well ive been inactive in overwatch

2017-10-11 13:50:28 UTC  

cant judge that

2017-10-11 13:50:31 UTC  

for league: FUCK THAT

2017-10-11 13:50:37 UTC  

balancing around pro players is dumb

2017-10-11 13:50:45 UTC  

they only care for the upper 0.00001%

2017-10-11 13:50:47 UTC  

junkrat holds two mines that dont require aim, and do 120 damage each

2017-10-11 13:50:56 UTC  

and is splash damage mostly

2017-10-11 13:50:59 UTC  

^

2017-10-11 13:51:22 UTC  

so if using one wasnt bad enough to destroy most of the 200~250 health heroes

2017-10-11 13:51:52 UTC  

he now has two, along with a nonstop barrage of grenades(his primary fire) that dva cant even defense matrix anymore because blizzard nerfed that.

2017-10-11 13:52:20 UTC  

two mines for 120 each? what the hell? xD

2017-10-11 13:53:04 UTC  

lets not forget that there were junkrat mains in the top 500, that had no problem with junkrat before buff. but since the golds and platinum players complained lets buff junkrat for them!

2017-10-11 13:54:23 UTC  

if junkrat could be switched off so easily, lets buff bastion back to where he was when blizzard first buffed him as well, because i he can be switched off really easily as much as junkrat, if not even more.

2017-10-11 13:54:31 UTC  

honest, fuck pro shit

2017-10-11 13:54:35 UTC  

pros are a tiny minority

2017-10-11 13:54:51 UTC  

their job is to master the noobie stuff

2017-10-11 13:54:56 UTC  

to be honest it would be a good idea to just leave overwatch where it was god damnit.

2017-10-11 13:54:57 UTC  

its not noobs job to master the pros stuff

2017-10-11 13:55:11 UTC  

but no changes at all are boring too..

2017-10-11 13:55:32 UTC  

yes, that's why you should add heroes not butcher the kit of an already existing hero

2017-10-11 13:55:34 UTC  

i like frequent changes

2017-10-11 13:55:41 UTC  

fully agreed

2017-10-11 13:55:50 UTC  

top500 mercy one trick cant play mercy anymore post buff

2017-10-11 13:56:17 UTC  

they just handle balancing poorly, case and point.
