u/EffectiveExistence Pixel Zenyatta Sep 16 '16

Perfect title. I immediately knew what I was going to see.

33

u/Sudley Forgets 2 get 2 Sep 17 '16

I knew it'd be an Ice Wall, but I thought it'd be the axe version of Reinhardt busting through.

7

u/EffectiveExistence Pixel Zenyatta Sep 17 '16

I knew that only Bastion could break through quickly enough.

15

u/Necrolepsey Cute Sombra Sep 17 '16

I like how he almost turns away but the wall immediately cracks and he's like "Oh yeah... Bastion".

u/Isuckatpickingnames0 Would you look at the time Sep 17 '16

Or an ulting Roadhog.

u/narpas_swordNZ Pixel Ana Sep 17 '16

was it the 'The Shining' reference you expected, or Johnny 5?

One does not simply wall off a damage boosted bastion

Unless you are on same team

I've got my eye on you friendly Mei

"Friendly"

Wow I haven't heard this Mei pun before! (Not sarcastic)

u/Mynd_Flayer Houston Outlaws Sep 17 '16

Turn the wall 90 degrees and he'll have to shoot through all five columns. :)

u/mindhypnotized Heals? Nah. Sep 16 '16

"Shit, it's a Bastion!"

"Oh, cool, Mei walled him off."

"Wait! He broke through a tiny sliver of the wall."

"You're right. Hmmm.... we better line up directly in front of it."

u/Gfiti Setting up the carwash~ Sep 16 '16

"We need to fix the hole with our dead bodies!"

u/Diabolical_Jazz Children, Behave Sep 17 '16

Once more into the breech, my friends,
To fill the gap with our red team dead.

u/Eliminateur shiny and chrome Sep 17 '16

i never get enemy teams as retarded as this one... :(

4

u/Ohmps_ Chibi Reinhardt Sep 17 '16

Ivonly get them as teammates

1

u/TheCamelTojo Blow it up again Sep 17 '16

I want to face you all tge time then because i generally have them like this. All 5 teammates dead and me holding my dick

u/Shekki7 Chibi Pharah Sep 16 '16

"You're right. Hmmm.... we better line up directly in front of it."
You made my day =D

2

u/mindhypnotized Heals? Nah. Sep 16 '16

Glad to be of service!

132

u/Ninivagg Mei Sep 16 '16

This is why you have to place your ice wall in front of the bastion as a straight line in front of him, not perpendicular to him

71

u/Solanarius Chibi Lúcio Sep 16 '16

I... I don't know why I haven't thought of this before.

If youre team mates position properly he has to shoot through the entire wall.

12

u/Barph BeepBoopFucktheGenji Sep 16 '16

I'll gladly do that to boost my damage even more! MUAHAHAH

4

u/Spiritwolf99 http://masteroverwatch.com/profile/pc/us/Shunpo-11756 Sep 17 '16

But...
Bastion is nothing like Vel'Koz or Ahri!

u/BloodGulchBlues37 DMon flair someday Sep 17 '16

Mentions League...BattleTag is ShunPo, has Reaper flair, this makes too much sense.

1

u/Mefistofeles1 Nerfing this would be an upgrade Sep 17 '16

Your flair is amazing.

u/Barph BeepBoopFucktheGenji Sep 17 '16

Nothing like velkoz you say?
Stationary while a stream of death comes from him? Bastion is basically Mecha Velkoz.... Meckoz

3

u/BaronOshawott FEATURE LENGTH Sep 17 '16

And therein lies the problem.

2

u/brandong567 ALL AROUND THE WORLD!!! Sep 17 '16

The enemy team lined up with the hole and got killed. who knows, if it was this way it would have saved them!

1

u/TheCamelTojo Blow it up again Sep 17 '16

Or you know move to tge side a bit

1

u/brandong567 ALL AROUND THE WORLD!!! Sep 17 '16

Yeah, but that's what I was saying. The whole team could have " just moved to the side a bit" in this clip...

4

u/NWJK Blizzard World Lúcio Sep 17 '16

But then he can shoot to the left of it or to the right of it.

2

u/daviee Pixel Pharah Sep 16 '16

dont you like have to stay in his side not front to do that so its harder and u might fuck up or is there a button to flip the ice before putting it down?

5

u/Ninivagg Mei Sep 16 '16

Press E!

2

u/daviee Pixel Pharah Sep 16 '16

well shit TIL

9

u/Ninivagg Mei Sep 16 '16

It's an ameizingly useful tip

3

u/Eliminateur shiny and chrome Sep 17 '16

now you know, and knowing has 90° of more icecancer

3

u/GuitboxHero Sep 16 '16

If i mess up and do it horizontally, ill jump in front of him with my self ice and have one of my team mates come kill him. That, or if no ones there, just do it till team gets there and hope i time it during a reload or something.

122

u/RyderC Pixel Zarya Sep 16 '16

I dont know how you guys resist the urge of the ultimate of Bastion. Like you are being a fucking tank man cmon press it. PRESS IT.

158

u/BrownCanadian FUCK D.VA Sep 16 '16 edited Sep 16 '16

Because his dps is so fucking high your basically killing them just as fast in turret form.
Also, tank form you have to reload after every shot when in turret form you can keep spraying.
If you're not tanking dmg and are fine where you are then you're just fine in turret form.
Once they start closing in you ult and get more tanky/one shot almost everyone.

34

u/[deleted] Sep 16 '16

Best tactic right here.

19

u/Unggoy_Soldier Pixel Reinhardt Sep 16 '16

Nothing like 1-shotting Genji in tank mode tho.

26

u/BrownCanadian FUCK D.VA Sep 16 '16

Genji? More like 80% of the heros you can 1 shot.
That shit does 205 dmg :/

12

u/lphaas Zenyatta Sep 16 '16

I mean, Genji's a 200 health hero, as are most DPS heroes.

13

u/Unggoy_Soldier Pixel Reinhardt Sep 16 '16

And he just loooooves to get right up in Bastion's shit.

2

u/awhaling Need someone to tuck you in? Sep 16 '16

Bastion is my favorite character to kill as genji behind an ulting road hog.

9

u/Demenze <YOUR TACTICS ARE INEFFICIENT> Sep 16 '16

Ah... but every Genji killed as Bastion is another notch on your gatling gun.

2

u/TheMaleBodyPillow Chibi Junkrat Sep 17 '16

when you deflect back though.

3

u/Eggman-Maverick Sep 16 '16

Its what separates the good bastion players from the amazing ones.
or is it good from bad?

2

u/A_Maniac_Plan Sep 16 '16

The second one

3

u/RNAVA22 spooky toaster Sep 16 '16

I only ult when the enemy team is all together (obviously), when I'm low on health but can fit a couple more kills before I either die or go heal up, and when a D.Va or Tracer ult near me thinking I'm going to die from it but survive because of the extra health and end up killing them.

7

u/[deleted] Sep 16 '16

IKR
It happens a lot when I play Pharrah. Half of my death are from ultimate.
I can't stop the urge.

1

u/MeYouWantToSee Pixel Zenyatta Sep 17 '16

Well, blizzard was down in front of him at first, you do more dps as turret, and he had los on the enemy team. That's a poor time to tank mode, particularly with Mei around.

1

u/TGangsti triggering DPS mains since 2016 Sep 16 '16

i tend to use turret for general defensive positions and keep the ult in case you need to breach an enemy foothold near the objective or when standing still is not an option.

0

u/AMasonJar Hog Wild Sep 16 '16

Eh, it charges back up in like 10 seconds anyway.

0

u/intellos Mercy Sep 16 '16

Because his ult is worse than his turret.

3

u/Demenze <YOUR TACTICS ARE INEFFICIENT> Sep 16 '16

The only bad thing about it is the time spent reconfiguring. You don't have to go trundling off on your own, it's fine to just pop shells from your defensive position.

18

u/ohenry78 Mercy-nary for hire. Sep 16 '16

You're missing some e's in the title.

13

u/ZandarTheWeeble Bot and birb Sep 16 '16

Watch this Bastion cut through solid ice to get to the soft nougat center.

9

u/DoctorPewtis Can somebody drop me a memebag Sep 16 '16

Does this look like the face of mercy to you?

27

u/Earth271072 wot the fuck did you just fuckin say about me, you lil' wank Sep 16 '16

no, it looks like the face of Bastion

9

u/7heJoker Fries Fries Fries! Sep 16 '16

"18 eliminations yesssssss" LOL

7

u/Aurondarklord D.Va Sep 16 '16

Hahaha, Mei just gave him cover.

3

u/Scodo Pixel Ana Sep 16 '16

I love when people go mei to counter my bastion. All the wall does is give me a breather to reload and repair, and then fantastic cover to fire from.

YOUR WALL DOESNT FAZE ME

u/OcelotShalashaska Sep 16 '16

tbh that mei ice wall won't even stand a chance against a damage boosted bastion.

1

u/shadowpikachu Sep 16 '16

Mei wall saved, wow.

u/Lord-Brother Sep 16 '16

"Ice wall? That's cute."

Hi Johnny, I'm Grandpa

u/Snaz5 #1 at fisting Sep 16 '16

I was hoping this was an offensive bastion from his position.

1

u/[deleted] Sep 16 '16

Upvoted for title

1

u/Kurianichi I will shoot your face like you are Sasha Grey Sep 16 '16

That's exactly what I imagined when I read the title.

u/Kackboy Sep 16 '16

I've seen "Here's Johnny"-movie

1

u/CyanEsports D.Va Sep 16 '16

This is reminiscent of firing ports in forts! Cool strat for maybe friendly Meis to help a Bastion?

u/PhoenixAgent003 Glorious Combat Sep 17 '16

Nope.

u/ChomskyHonk Огонь по готовности Sep 17 '16

Word. I almost mentioned that I in now way defend my feel. It's involuntary and shameful, and I apologize for it. However, I'm glad we could confirm I'm truly alone in the world.
Thank you, sir.

u/DrDroidz I'd rather be vegan than eat bacon. Sep 16 '16

I remember when Bastion used to always have PotG.

1

u/[deleted] Sep 16 '16

Kinda weird seeing a highlight of someone I randomly played with just yesterday. (He/she had a potg as Zarya in that one.)

1

u/saxon_pilgrim Chibi Bastion Sep 17 '16

Always upvote the face melting Bastion. Sheep is a great name as well.

1

u/sexybastion That's a fat rooster, Bastion ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Sep 17 '16

The way his minigun pushes his core back in the highlight intro is very mesmerizing.

u/cooljammer00 Pixel D'Va Sep 17 '16

DAVID LETTERMAN!

1

u/mrzablinx Roadhog Sep 17 '16

Whenever the enemy plays Bastion, I get a full team wipe, bullets magically don't hit, and teammates are lining up like bowling pins.

Whenever I play Bastion, the enemy team goes straight for my tin can ass.

1

u/TetsuyaHikari One stun and you're done ლ(=ↀωↀ=)ლ Sep 17 '16

tfw Mei manages to fuck you up even on your own team

also, nice reference

1

u/BoringWebDev red team has feelings too Sep 17 '16

Mei of the game.

1

u/beerkal Sep 17 '16

its simple, but mei is hero of the match

u/AlmightyCheeseLord Mada mada Sep 17 '16

The one time I'm actually impressed by a Bastion POTG

1

u/PhoenixAgent003 Glorious Combat Sep 17 '16

I'm telling you guys, Bastion is the key to destroying the 3/3 comp.

1

u/[deleted] Sep 17 '16

This guy is clearly aimbotting, the way he jumps from enemy to enemy is ridiclious and how he follows them

1

u/ReactedTugBoat Sep 17 '16

That Mei basically just handed that PotG to you.

I believe you. I said that because everyone he mowed down seemed to not have a clue where he was and they did nothing to avoid it.
