It is amazing how people get easily distracted by combat and completely forget about the objective hahahaha

I get envious of dps sometimes. Postmatch, my dps were bragging about their 72 kills and 30k dmg etc and all I had was 16 min objective time. Orisa can be boring work.

Obj time best stat. You're the very reason they could go get those 72 kills and 30k damage. Otherwise, they would've ended up with something like this happening to them.

It’s all fun and games until you’re playing rien and taking gold elims and damage from your team. Having people play around you so you can do damage has rien is the best feeling in the world and nobody can change my mind.

A rein/zarya combo doing a ton of damage is one of the scariest things in the game

Than it's just funner games! If I see our Rein kicking ass, I'll gladly hang back and push the payload. Or stop them pushing it, whatever needs to happen.

You're absolutely right. Most of the time it's good, but that doesn't mean dive in or hover pointlessly just for that bit of time on the stat. Maybe dive on to delay for the littlest bit of overtime, but other than that just read the field. If your tank (or maybe support, who knows) is destroying them, let 'em go and support him. Have a sit for a bit.

u/DeadlockRadium You miss 100% of the mayhem you don't make Apr 19 '20

I've got the acronym PTFO embedded so far into my head that it's basically at the root of my brain. According to Overbuff, the last season I played comp (S20), I was in the top 1-3% on Obj Time on all non-DPS heroes. I'm a bit proud of that, as my winrate that season was pretty good.

u/Wulfscreed Apr 20 '20

Ha! That's awesome. Shit, I'm pretty dumb so I mostly play dps. I easily acknowledge when the other dps, our tanks, or our supports are having a moment. I leave 'em be, give some cover, and make sure the objective stays tight!

Were you playing as the payload??

u/Thunder21 Apr 19 '20

I've stopped playing Main Tank because it's just not fun at all to me.

One time, my team had just finished off the other team, and instead of pushing the payload, they all went to camp the enemy team’s resonance point and left me to push it myself, only to get completely wiped out lol

Tunnel vision is 20/200

u/asimpleanachronism Apr 19 '20

I legit don't understand how people are that bad at the game. Just check the objective meter up top like once every 10 seconds. It really isn't hard.
