I finally have something to look forward to at Blizzcon other than Diablo news
i'd honestly be surprised if we don't see a new character before blizzcon in november, we already know that a sniper (possibly sombra, but we don't actually know if that name is attached to that character) was in development during beta
I hoped that Brawl could have some wacky rules, like "no visible player names" so that you can't tell friend from foe, or "friendly fire" for extra madness...

Friendly fire, junkrat and Pharah only. For when you really need people to learn to aim..

Most games with special modes take a while to suss out different ideas and make them work. All brawls are kind of beta test game modes. I'm sure blizzard is keeping track of which ones have the highest plays and will keep those around.

They could have added a "the floor is lava" quirk this week since you can essentially fly forever

Titanfall had that as a game mode and it was cool.
First competitive match: all pugs, all coordinating on mic, all putting in effort. I heal the team to victory, get Mercy POTG
Second match: All pugs, no one has mic, no one says anything, we get melted out the gate
Third match: All pugs, couple people on mic, but someone on my team quits in the first few seconds. Eventually, everyone leaves but me, I decide to just stick it out. I get fucking POTG and all the medals cause I was the only one on my team
I've been so ridiculously busy the past few weeks, so I've barely been able to even touch this. Hopefully I should have some more time for it soon.
I heard there were some nerfs recently? Who copped what?
On PC widowmaker's scoped non-headshot damage was pushed down a bit so she can't kill 150 health characters with a bodyshot, and she can't recope after unscoping until the unscoping animation finishes. On console she's unchanged or maybe just the scoping change applied. I think on both PC and console mccree's fan the hammer damage was cut in half? And on console only, torbjorn's turret's damage was cut by 30%. Other than that all I remember are some bug fixes for teleporting into strange geometry with Reaper getting fixed.

mcree's fan the hammer does less damage
widowmaker takes longer to charge up, can't cancel her "come out of sniping" animation anymore, and she does less damage with bodyshots, but does more damage with headshots
Was widow's shot charge time increased or just her ultimate charge rate
She doesn't do more damage with headshots, she does the same as pre-nerf, they just increased the multiplier because the base damage went down

I know this was a problem Halo had back in the day.
Nobody wanted to play ranked and preferred casual. So it was very YMMV.
Well I'm 2 for 2 on these competitive matches. First one we got an afk. I wish they could just sub in a quick play player. How are there not bots to do that too?
Otherwise, it's been way more fun. I love it when people get serious. I'm finding that people use much different characters in competitive. Although one match we won with 3 winstons....

That feels so much less broadly useful than rez though
yep
but in exchange for a persnickety ult you get to do lots of damage all the time
i think that they just erred the numbers a bit too high on it possibly to compensate
or zeny's a bit faster, perhaps
They had arcade mode. Is that what you mean?
make 0cd Junkrat a real mode
sure, that's one idea
I believe I can flyyyy
I believe I can touch the skyyyyy
There was also random character mode.

I also did not care for that one
deathmatch might be interesting

i reflexively pop it whenever i hear someone starting to yell in japanese
I panic whenever I hear Japanese and run away from the point. The seemingly increasing number of Genjis makes that less effective.

Just the ult.
Which makes me super excited for her buff to happen

Which I understand.
Even when my team does poorly, there's always ways to try and carry the match.
I don't mind carrying on defense, but on offense it's not good.
