Board 8 > Overwatch Summer Games 2017 starts today.

(+) Yeah! (+)

I'm so drunk on power with Mayhem mode that I can't play regular well anymore lol

I KEEP GETTIN FUCKING ICONS

GIVE ME SOME SKINS ALREADY FUCK

caps

That's how it goes when most of the skins are legendary. Item update for me:

New skins - 1/7
Voice lines - 40/50
Player icons - 41/44
Old skins - 10/12
Victory poses - 15/16
Emotes - 4/4
Intros - 3/5
Sprays - 28/30

If I get all gray/blue items I will have them all and be back to dupes (unless I get epic/legendary items) in 4 more loot boxes.

That riptire buff

This is the sort of stuff I mean with Doomfist's punch. The hit box on it is so screwed up

Mayhem mode? Oh! You mean "Defense almost always wins" mode! Or is it "Overtime is 10 minutes long" mode?

Yessssssss

I wish they made Riptire a little less squishy. Orisa's shield is being buffed again on PTR. I guess they love her shield more than Winston's and Reinhardt's. I mean Hp wise Rein's shield is great, but now it doesn't cover as much area as Orisa's.

So aside from being next to a cliff or avoiding Doomfist altogether how are you supposed to avoid being hit into a wall by Doomfist? Very few maps have a big enough open space where the 50 feet you get sent flying back doesn't result in a wall and even if you just barely hit it after you finally quit moving you still take full damage

Play more Orisa.

Incidentally, Orisa currently has the lowest play rate of any hero in Overwatch.

Just wait until Fortify is on cooldown. You could also blindside her flanking and there goes half of her HP. Pharah is the safest counter to Doomfist, but on some stages he can even manage to reach her height and fist her into oblivion. I get the feeling they're going to change the mechanics of the move and/or the cooldown. Right now at least the hit box on his rocket punch is seriously broken

Anyone watching the World Cup?

got a great loot box haul!

While its not the colors I wanted, I DID GET ONE OF TRACER'S SUMMER OUTFITS (I wanted the great britain one but I'm not gonna complain)

Then I got Doomfist's blue outfit


Sweet!

I can't decide if I like Widowmaker's beach outfit more than her human skin color outfit.

Dumb non-event Bastion legendary skin

Ha. I recently got a Zen legendary skin, and I now have every single one of his skins. I've never bought any of them and I almost never use him.
---

10 event items left now with 6 being legendary skins, 2 epic skins and 2 highlight intros.

got a lame ass red junkrat skin. back on the old grind
---

Got a Sombra epic skin. I have wayyyyyy too many Sombra skins.
---

Got Hanzo's intro and McCree's skin.

Felt like I was having a decent game with Roadhog, but my team lost and I didn't even end up with a damage medal.

Until the patch hits he's ACTUALLY worthless. Like, yeah, I'm sure he'll be viable post buff even if I will never play him ever again, but right now he's basically a throw. Can't even reliably kill Zenyatta.
---

Got American McCree oh ya

Literally my first loot box and I don't even want to use it anymore.

Irony.

lets not do the whole roadhog discussion thing again

You're a bit late.

I got a bunch of icons again

daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaang

I mean we went to talk about McCree skins and you brought it up 5 hours later for no reason.
---

It took me about an hour to get the Lucioball loot box because my teammates kept getting salty and stopped playing once the enemy scored a single goal (Or they just wanted to fuck around and not do anything to start with). Had one match where we were up 3-0 and then the enemy scored and one of my teammates spammed, "Thanks" then just danced for the rest of the match. We ended up losing in overtime.

Anyone else have this issue? I think I had maybe three games tops where everyone kept trying till the end. Feels like such a weird thing to occur so much.
---

^ I feel like it all comes down to arcade mode in general being designed really badly. Because you have to win to get progress towards your loot box, it ends up being more stressful/"competitive" than even the actual competitive mode. They wanted it to be a "just for fun" mode but because everyone playing is there just for loot as fast as possible and nothing else you get stuff like people leaving after one Lucioball score or one flag capture very often.

this was only *3 posts up when I told you to shut up about it

my post and this post can be seen on the same screen so I thought it was justified

Oh by the way, free for all Deathmatch is insaaaaanely fun. I've played about 10 times and got awesome highlights each time. Team deathmatch very fun too, and more classes are viable there...but in FFA you can truly relax or experiment or tryhard, whatever, don't have to worry about hurting your team or your team hurting you. I think I might give up quick play and play deathmatch forever.
---

Wow my team got wrecked by a Zarya even though we had more than one way of dealing with her. Dunno why our Reaper and Sombra sucked so much.

OK but....time is a thing...

OK nevermind, you do you!

You and your damn PTR

Deathmatch seems like it would suck with Doomfist now.

Maybe I'll make a Mystery Heroes Deatmatch custom game instead.

But we're not having a verbal conversation, its a forum and it was still one of the latest posts

but as long as you'll stop being a baby about it, I'll drop it here too!

Ana's beachball Emote!

Legendary gold. So depressing

Found a new hobby while in Waiting. Putting somebody to sleep with Ana and spraying the pillow beneath them

Doomfist is OP in deathmatch yup...I hate playing him, but even I gave him a try and I rocked without any effort

...but someone's always going to be the best in such a mode, so at least he's weak to long range characters so you can pick that if he's being really annoying.
---

I wanted to play Pharah, but the enemy had a good Widow so I went Winston until she switched to Reaper and then I switched to Mei. I basically just trolled this enemy because I wanted to play Pharah and her being around made it too difficult.

Mei is my Main but man she is so much fun in Mayhem


who know being a jerk would be so much fun!
---

Mayhem unbeatable team.

Winston
Zarya
Doomfist
Mercy
Symettra
Junkrat

Can't lose.

I got two things of legendary gold in my 5 Twitch Prime Loot boxes, which was nice but I hope doesn't screw me out of event legendaries later.

Troll sleep dart Ana is fun too as she can effectively take out anyone on the opposing team. Winston is probably the most fun to play in that mode though.
---

Yep! Total Mayhem Winston is the most fun thing in the game!
---

Lucio is pretty nuts in Total Mayhem too. So much amping it up. I also love Soldier in it because oh yes Helix Rocket every two seconds.

i only played total mayhem once after it first came out. i played as winston on defense in route 66. the attack team couldn't even round the first corner with the payload. i basically parked my ass on it, dropping bubbles and double jumping when i needed to get healed by ana. must have been a really frustrating experience for them!
