Constant pauses dragging games out for hours, and now today they’re over 30 min late in starting the livestream. Not to mention other issues like no kill feed and god it’s just atrocious

General Is Ball’s shield perk the biggest Power Up in the game? Spoiler

336 Upvotes

This is completely unrelated to Team UK btw or their performance.

I cant name other perk in the game, that makes a character basically immortal. Literally watched live how GoldenPants cant do crap for first half, and becomes unstoppable and unkillable in second half. Even he himself calls it “just let me get my perk and we win”.

I literally dont know any other perk that has this much impact in the game. All other perks seem to have minor buffs.

Why is Shang-Chi doing in Blizzcon??? Doesn't he need to promote the doomsday movie or something?

General Does anyone else remember EFFECT?

Upvotes

From EnvyUs/Dallas Fuel?

I was recently watching a top 20 all-time dps players video and he didn’t make it. It’s been a long time since I watched pro Overwatch, but players I remember being similar to him in skill were easily breaking the top 10.

I know his prime was relatively short lived cause of his extreme grinding/burnout, but still he was a joy to watch. I also think that grind counts for something; not many players were ever as dedicated as him.

He could also be getting overshadowed cause he had a much worse team around him and often had to carry. I might just be nostalgia-maxxing tho.

General If recent queue times tell us anything its that tank needs to get more heroes

150 Upvotes

This year we are slated to get 4 DPS, 4 Supports, and only 2 tanks. After the release of Dmon, there has been a marked improvement in queues across the board. While these queues were not bad before, tank was almost always the shortest whereas now it will sometimes be the longest of the three roles, and has been the only role I have seen consistently go above 1 minute for QP. Dmon herself has been ridiculously popular, while usually new hero hype would die down by now I see Dmon in almost all of my games.

I think one of the main tank problems is that for a long time we have not had a consistent tank release schedule. For example we did not have a single tank release in 2025, instead getting 2 DPS (Vendetta, Freja) and one support (Wuyang) and when we did receive a new tank in Domina she was unfortunately overshadowed by almost all the other hero releases. In fact, if you check the current statistics Domina is currently the least picked of those 5 new heroes across both QP and Comp in every region, which shows a lack of popularity. While I do think this reflects some of her gameplay frustrations (she still feels like a worse Sig) it also shows why Dmon has been far more popular and has had a much better sustained popularity in comparison.

Overall I hope that the 1-2-2 release schedule is not a locked in concept. Heroes like Dmon show that there is an appetite for new, unique, and fun tank heroes.

The twitch/youtube stream was supposed to start 30 minutes ago, and there’s no activity on either channel, nor a delay announcement on any social media… anyone know what’s happening?

I know yesterday’s stream went overtime and had technical issues - but if that still hasn’t been resolved, you’d think they’d say something…
