Oh, so the Anniversary Box is a big trick because you can get old stuff you missed in it, and aren't guaranteed at least one drop from the CURRENT event.

I wouldn't call it a SCAM, but I got everything I cared about in the old events, so this is really just lowering my odds of getting what I want.

my biggest concern was this just opened up a bigger pool to get dupes with
---

That actually won't be affected. It's still doing the thing where it determines whether it's an event or regular item before checking for dupes, which is a problem, but in this situation you shouldn't get any event dupes unless you have ever single event item in a rarity class. Could still get a standard item dupe if it determines a slot is a standard item and not an event item first, though.

ah I see

I'm a little disappointed that the all heroes versions of PVEs are gonna be separate days, they don't come bundled with the regular version
---

Junkenstein's revenge is both easier and harder than other PVEs because it gives you much more freedom on moving around and being where you're more comfortable

but everybody has to be on their role so much more harder than the other PVEs

Ana sleeping bosses and boosting mccree is essential

hanzo has to know where to put his ults

soldier HAS to be on crowd control the entire time

so its somehow less freedom

its intense
---

It's still by far their best event.
---

It might be better than the other PVEs because of the reasons listed (so far its not driving me insane) but The Snowball one is my favorite

Lucioball frustrates me too much
---

I wish Lucioball was a permanent mode. Id be playing it daily

Got two legendaries in a box, but one was gold and the other was Orisa's new skin, and I don't use her. Too bad.
---

I've been getting a bunch of halloween skins. An event I never played in before
---

got Genji's sentai skin from the one box. too bad I don't play him
---

Genji is so hard to play I dont know how so many people seem so good with him. I try to do what they do and almost always just end up dying. I even changed his controls around so he can jump and shoot easier and I still feel bad with him compared to actual decent or better Genji players.

R2 is primary, R1 secondary. L2 jumps, L1 dash. X is deflect. Try that.
---

I can give it a shot. I was using

L1 Jump
L2 Primary
R1 Deflect
R2 Alt fire
X Swift Strike

Yay Mei's snowball offensive ^_^
---

Dammit accidentally restored and now I gotta rework Hanzo again. I accidentally hit R2 first instead of X and then whoops. Oh well shouldnt be too difficult to find the sweet spot with him again. Gonna try out Genji now

Random dumbass update that erased all of my highlights

god dammit
---

*gets 2 legendaries*

*Money and that dumbass Evel Knievel Soldier outfit*


fuck
---

I got a couple epics, but they were non-event stuff. When you have as many cosmetics as I do its rare you get anything. Like Ill blow through all the grays and blues in 10-15~ loot boxes and maybe have the new epics by then. After that its the long dry period.

Yeti Hunter is up

don't like this one so much
---

Snowball, its 5 minutes at MOST, you can get anywhere from 1.5k to 3k xp

and I dunno, I think its fun

yeti is meh. really drawn out, and you only get like 300 xp
---

i got brigittes new skin!

i recently started playing again last week after like over a year off. its like a whole new world lol
---

Yeti hunt is probably the best event game. But only playing as the yeti, mostly.
---

Im really trying to see the appeal of Petra. Anyone like this map?
---

Nope. It's pretty bad.
---

They probably wanted a map with more natural aesthetics and less sci-fi ones and didnt think the details through.
---

That hole in the middle is awful.
---

The middle battlefield was the only good part

Then it fucking collapses and become a giant hole

It becomes the worst part
---

The worst part is you dont get kill credit if you destroy the floor and people fall to death

Fun fact

its entirely possible to win as DPS Winston in Yeti hunter without ever getting a single piece of meat

you have to be smart about your jumps and shield, but you can just straight savage bumrush the meis and win

they certainly don't expect that
---

Just lost a comp match because everybody decided to drink idiot juice

we were doing great, 2 2 2, good communication, etc

then round 2 came. everybody dropped healers, I was the only tank, everybody stopped talking

we lost

round 3, everbody started saying "LOL ITS JUST COMP"

Like..WHAT?! THATS WHAT YOU SAY ABOUT QP

WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED TO YOU MORONS

we lost
---

I won like 4 matches in FFA Comp placement

got 1700 silver

I won 7 matches in season 10 placement

1200 bronze

uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
---

Stuff I need to get:

Mei's hopping emote

Mei's Dancing Emote

Orisa's Puppy Emote

Moira's Blackwatch skin

Pharah's Bedouin skin

Genji's sentai would be cool just to have but I like his Carbon Fiber one better, also I don't use him

thats all I can think of at the moment
---

I just tried playing Uprising

having beaten it on Legendary, playing it again on Hard made made me sick to my stomach

I'm never touching this again
---

I have no idea why I keep playing this game.

I haven't enjoyed anything but PvE or Mayhem in literally over 100 hours and I hate everyone I play with.

I just can't stop. Fuck.
---

Mayhem is so good. It's so much fun, anybody can do whatever the hell they want and it's great being drunk on all of that power.
---

It started with us losing one guy. WE ACTUALLY ONE THE FIRST ROUND WITHOUT HIM. But we were on attack at Blizzard World. Defense was a whole totally different thing. Then one jackass started dicking around and throwing. Picking a random different DPS every time he died. Such as Doomfist and hanzo of course. Then finally HE quit

eventually.....:

yeaaaaaa

As you can see, I lost the round. I will fight til my last breath is what I told them. Then yea, didnt work out. So we were tied and they got attack again. They just needed one tick on the map to win. So I decided to go out in a blaze of glory and picked Mah Sweet Main, Mei and her golden gun. If you can see the text, the team pitied me. At least I can SHOW them I was giving it my all

UNFORTUNATELY I dont have any visual aids for this, but my last stand wasnt glorious. I met them at the first choke at the gate, I was shooting them and punching them as they ran in, but they just ran PAST me and claimed the point. I didnt even have a Warriors death.

5 GOLD MEDALS IM SO AMEIZING. As you can see, this was the day I won the respect of a bunch of randoms in Comp. and yea, reminder, THIS IS COMP. Some of them even added me since they thought I was a cool dude for standing my ground. This was an interesting match. I regret not recording my last stand but I was so full of adrenaline it slipped my mind and I didnt consider it would make a funny video. Always keep the camera rollin, everybody!
---

hey pun if that happens again choose characters you need achievements for and ask the enemy team to help you with them

pretty easy to get lucio's triple boop or doomist's meteor strike on everyone with enemy cooperation!
---

lol

did that happen to you?
---

Nah, just seen videos of people doing it and such
---

got that macaroni lookin Torb costume

meh
---

I got an ugly non-event Doomfist Legendary skin and Lucios epic event skin

Just in case anyone is interested in some extraordinarily "ok" gameplay. No, it won't be 24 hours of overwatch.

Live in 5 or less! Starting my attempt at a 24 hour stream. Starting with Overwatch Mystery Heroes and playing many other games throughout the stream! Come by and say hi! =) twitch.tv/serevarno
---

Really getting tired of all the worthless pieces of shit who decided that the game going super well for them means they get to be cocky overextending garbage and throw the game because they're head was too big.

Group. The. Fuck. Up.
---

Was probably a dumb kid or something. Why are there so many DPS Moira? Like what the fuck shes a healer and has the lowest DPS in the game and there are Moiras just draining enemies while people on their team need healing. So terrible

Got to the 2 heavies at the end of Legendary retribution

the reason why i died and why everybody followed is because I didn't know there were gonna be 2 of them

god dammit
---

lucioball is up again

@neonreaper
---

so are the events just gonna keep repeating or is there gonna be a new schedule?
---

Lucioball was fun today and I am sad that it is gone
