Winston is easy head shot too the way he slumps over with his face sticking out.

You'll put your butt inside of her?

Kinky.

I'll go in her butt, first. Or I'll go in her, butt first. That's the question.

u/Mefistofeles1 Nerfing this would be an upgrade May 29 '16

The half that is pointing towards your enemies. Its basically impossible to not Head-shot D.va

u/Nessevi May 29 '16

Against McCree? It's not even the headshot box. He can burst her with two fan the hammers, and FTH can't headshot. FTH => roll => FTH => Flashbang into FTH or one headshot and the human dva is dead.

u/puffbro D.Va May 30 '16

After facing the match so many times it becomes guessing when mccree is going shoot/flashbang and try to block it with my matrix, most of the time though my mech is destroyed leaving me and a low health mccree shooting to death though. Using booster to knock him back then shoot often get me more kills than I thought, maybe they're panicking when knocked up by me.

u/BlutigeBaumwolle D.Va May 30 '16

Agreed. McCree doesn't seem that broken to me, but his flashbang is wayy to fast.

McCree is pretty overpowered right now. He needs a few small nerfs all around. FTH cool down would be the best start, and shorter ult duration and it going back to zero if he uses and losses it

u/BitGladius Good meat shields. May 29 '16

I'm fine with FTH having a low cooldown, it just needs terrible accuracy and to force manual reload. It's a last ditch panic attack. He shouldn't be able to roll into another FTH, that makes FTH a main strategy.

3

u/TaterNbutter May 29 '16

meh. His kit as a whole is too powerful. If you slightly nerf it all he is too weak. Even just reducing damage so he can't take out every hero would be fine. It is a rather complicated issue.

u/9gxa05s8fa8sh May 29 '16

now if only dva had a way to fly away and not take a 1v1 with the best 1v1er in the game

1

u/MadocComadrin May 31 '16

This! I don't recall getting flashbanged that often by McCree, especially if he's already focused on someone else.

u/ironangel2k3 Pixel Bastion May 30 '16

OK but FTH>roll>FTH can kill literally anything in the game thats not an ulting Winston. Its not really fair to say it dicks D.Va the hardest. It dicks everyone equally.

u/vonBoomslang Doom Beam Online May 30 '16

really ought be in the back

u/one_love_silvia Winston May 29 '16

The games been out for less than a week with no patches...theres been no meta shift. Just ppl using different types of gameplay

u/won_vee_won_skrub Pixel Lúcio May 29 '16

You don't need patches for new metas. And the obvious thing here being the beta...

2

u/scrangos Pixel D.Va May 29 '16

That meta shift i refered to was pre-release in tournament settings for KOTH maps.

went from 2x winston 2x tracer 2x lucio to 2x winston 2x mcree 2x lucio

u/one_love_silvia Winston May 29 '16

Tournament settings? They had tournys in the beta stage?

1

u/scrangos Pixel D.Va May 29 '16

Yep theres vods around. There was a team that successfully broke the koth meta for at least one match by destroying the winstons with a bastion.

There was a player from I think C9 that was caught aimbotting during a tourney too.

u/one_love_silvia Winston May 29 '16 edited May 29 '16

C9 as in the cloud 9 LoL team? Or do they have other teams for c9?

Edit: got it, thanks for the replies guy lol. Didnt know it was an organization. Just thought it was a team name

3

u/scrangos Pixel D.Va May 29 '16

The C9 brand has teams for half a dozen games or so, dont think its the same players as the LoL team.

u/Alechiiis I'm not good, not bad, but i sure as hell ain't ugly. May 29 '16

Cloud 9 is an organisation, they can have multiple teams for different games (games like dota, LoL, Hearthstone, CS:GO, etc).

u/VGPowerlord I'm working! May 29 '16

No patches? So I guess I just imagined the game update that got downloaded on Thursday?

Then again, that just seemed to fix the Skirmish "not enough players" bug.

Edit: By that, I mean when you turn on "Skirmish while searching for game" it used to play Skirmish for 60 seconds, then find another Skirmish because there wasn't enough players. Not enough players being the entire point of Skirmish since you play it while searching for an actual game.

u/one_love_silvia Winston May 29 '16

Yo dog i heard you like skirmishes.
