Arctic/Siberian is OK but Zarya definitely needs better skins.
Do you not see her Goth skin?
It's boring. Pretty much just different hair style and some piercings. And some extra straps on the armor I didn't notice until I fired the game up just to check what I was talking about.

HA I wish I was recording. Got knocked off the edge at Illos lighthouse, but was Lucio and was able to ride the whole edge till I got to the other side and survived.

She puts spikes on her gun.
It's almost as good as the Explorer Winstons, where he puts bedrolls on his gun.

I dislike the goth aesthetic but actually really like the world war aesthetic so I'm probably gonna pick up her siberian front skin at some point
So does Widow not get knocked out of zoom when she gets hit? Because it seems like she stays zoomed in no matter what.
Which seems really fucking stupid to me, when there's things like Bastion getting knocked out of repair mode by getting hit.
If I'm flying out of the air in an auto-shotgun mech and blasting away, Widow should not be able to nudge her aim over to super-headshot me on the way down despite her eating a shitload of buckshot.
As far as I can tell shooting widowmaker has zero effect on her aim.
I've reached the point where I can play either Zenyatta or Genji without totally embarrassing myself.
I'm not sure if I'm too aggressive or if the other pugs are too passive, but playing Genji usually results in my spending 20% of the match staring at a respawn timer. It's worth it for those deflections, though. There is nothing quite as satisfying as sending one of Hanzo's goddamn arrows directly back into his smug mug.
Try being a more conservative backline sniper with them. Zen is great at orbing and sniping down long sight lines while the rest of his team fights up front.
It's Genji that ends up getting killed frequently; with Zen I play as support/artillery and generally last a while.
Holding back and sniping as Genji seems to achieve relatively little. His projectile speed is too low to really snipe with (except against turrets) and his damage is only average. I think in a serious game I'd be better off swapping characters than trying that.
If you're accurate, sniping with him can do a lot of dmg. They can be hard to hit though. Whittle people down (or let your team do so), go in and finish em off, and get back out.
Also you want to be constantly mobile, double jumping, and climbing walls. I have a hard time keeping that up.
Zenyatta can be fucking terrifying to play against when he can hit headshots dependably
And since he doesn't have to depend just on healing to build his ult, he can get them fast
When I'm playing zenyatta and I see the enemy tank is roadhog I know it's gonna be a good match

That's actually a really good idea. Widow has a high enough skill ceiling that she can kill even her "hard counters" in close range. The inability to scope while taking damage would greatly diminish that problem.
Why is zenyatta not a gross abomination and instead a male decent looking guy
Can women not be spiritualists
Even the monk leader who gets killed is a male
None of the Omnics seem to have gender as a thing at all.
You don't really have to have breasts to be a female-themed robot.
The robots we see have male hips, male legs, male torsos, male voices
If you're building robots into a human form which is already sort of an impractical technical challenge compared to just giving zenyatta tank treads
then there's no particular reason that those "neuter" body shapes have to default to what is really male. You could just as easily give 'em a female hip ratio. A V shaped torso vs an hourglass shaped one, neither is really inherently more practical or natural for a robot body, right?
Besides iirc one of Zenyatta's lines on the nepal map even refers to that assassinated omnic as "he".

I will say, Roadhog's hook is really not fun to play against when it seems nearly entirely random if he hits you with it. Very little skill in avoiding it because even when you do or you block it with a wall, you still get yanked past everything and dead.
Also, if you want to have no fun ever, try playing against Bastion Mercy Reinhardt and Zenyatta on Hanamura B. If you walked into the checkpoint area you died instantly they had such absurd point and click ranged dps.

Worst thing is when the shitty tickrate lets him drag you around three corners.

Playing as Pharah I got pulled even though I was flying behind a pillar on purpose, ended up getting hooked straight through it and went back through the geometry. It was very frustrating.
You guys act like it's easy to hook people. But if he can see even part of you, you get hooked.
It's a hitscan skill with a fairly large hitbox, so yea it's not that difficult. At my mediocre level most roadhogs finish games around 50+% hooks landed which are generally all autokills. I don't begrudge him that but it feels like there is very little counterplay because even when you dodge or purposely block it, nope here you gooo dead.
I don't mind Roadhog because he's so big and fat that once you instinctually know the range of his hook you can just stand outside of it and plink away at him pretty easily. Just keep track of when his hook is on cooldown and you can push him around pretty easily.

its not hitscan. it just has a large hitbox and the game favors roadhog more than his target

McCree can also die in a ditch. I hate that stun/insta kill nonsense. So easy to get off. And the rate that his ult charges is disgustingly fast.

I was Mercy, zapping a teammate. Wasn't a Junkrat/Pharah explosive.

The bullets go where you're aiming. So if Genji reflected someone else's bullets at you, "ouch".
try dropping mei's ult on it
I've once deflected a McCree's highnoon to kill his Mercy.
The best part is that it changes her ult line to "Heroes never die... for a price."
omg those cats are AWESOME
do we have a link to who did those??
I kept hearing that version last night in a game and had no idea why (I never got a good look at either team's Mercy though). Good to know.
I can't count how many times a Mei on my team has blocked me right after exiting the ship as we are all racing to the checkpoint in KotH.
