    anyone tryna play some HotS? i need one more game for the event

    I would be down but I ran into a game with idiots and another with people straight up hacking
    I did not even know what they did until I watched the video that was just sad to see a nova swapping places with her clone a butcher with full blood from the start of the match and a illidan using hunt often as was able to be basically immortal

    Think I am going to get back in for a while with the Anniversary and such...is the PS4 community still fairly active on here?

    Definitely don't want to go at it solo after being off for 6 months.

    I hate getting harassed to heal or watching others harass people into playing a healer

    It can go a step further too lately and I see red when it does, had someone last night, go off on our Zenyatta, because " Zenny is a secondary healer, I guess you all want to lose, why won't anyone go second healer, you guys are trash" SAID THE GENJI......

    THIS RIGHT HERE.

    Those motherfuckers are all the way across the map screaming for heals so I respond with group up with me and oh no here comes the WAHmbulance!

    I don't see as much of this in QP because nobody really gives a shit but when I was still doing comp I'd get this shit as mercy all the time, especially if our other support was Lucio

    no dude, that's not how either of those heroes work, get back here or get a health kit

    Free to play weekend just happened, could be responsible for the bad games?

    The problem with OW QP now is that a lot of the people that want to win play comp now, so QP is full of people fucking around, or practicing new heroes before they play them in comp.

    QP was mostly fine before comp started, you'd get the occasional goofy stack game but it was 100 times better then it is now.

    I'd rather practice in some sort of Comp practice mode, that follows comp rules, but where SR isn't affected, but is used for the matchmaking. I don't want to foul up a QP match based on my good DVA based MMR, with my awful McRee and Pharah practice, but right now there's not much choice. I did consider making a practice DPS account, but getting to level 25 on a 2nd account would be a big time sink.

    Solo queueing in QP for me has been 5 ish losses in a row, which I assume tanks my MMR, and then like 5 wins in a row, and repeat if I keep playing after that. Like clockwork.

    It's almost always a steam roll too.

    If I double queue with my brother we get much more even games it seems, even in no limits mode.

    Well, I don't know what the heck is happening in QP with regards to player quality or whatever, but I am certainly getting way more PotG than I used to. So, that's a boost to my self esteem.

    This morning on defense on Eichenwald, had to fall back to point A. Playing Junkrat and from behind me I hear "It's high noo-", at which point I spin around and pop a grenade into McRee's face and drop him. I was giggling so hard I almost let Reinhardt knock my head off.

    I played a bunch of competitive over the past few days and I assume it's just bad/good luck, but I've had one actually competitive match and a bunch of blowouts. There was a Hanamura map where we actually traded blowouts until we finally ran out of time. It's...really weird, and not a ton of fun.

    That's been my luck lately as well. Unless I get lucky, Season 4 is going to be my worst comp season.

    Yeah, I thought I had the only skin I'd ever need.

    I don't ever plan on playing Genji like, ever, but that is some hotness.

    Damnit, with all the crates from the Nexus challenge I got up to maybe 800 credits, I can probably squeeze in enough for one legendary quickly but there's like four I want.

    I've been saving my first golden weapon purchase for whenever a Genji skin came out that was ostentatious enough for it.

    I think that day has come.

    I guess I'm just frustrated because it feels like the vast majority of skins this game gets on events are silly or seasonal or have some sort of gimmick or are a reference when what I want more is lots of skins that are more "normal" designs that I feel then character might actually wear on missions. There's a few in here that could fit that I suppose, but the ones that do don't excite me much.

    The last event was the only one that really had a skin theme that did it for me, and it's the only event I missed out on. And thanks to Blizzard's shitty timed exclusive strategy I can't get those ones now.
