Fuck yea, I finally hit Platinum. I was at 23xx for the longest time, but I finally broke through ELO Hell. Gotta hand it to the Grand Master smurf in my last game, he asked me to pocket him as Mercy and then Genji'd all over the red team. :smirk:

For some reason I never get to play on the red team. Not even once!!1

Watching a tournament stream on Twitch can get confusing when they spectate the red team. I keep seeing people hide behind the wrong Reinhardt shield. :confused:

Pretty awesome new skins for the anniversary event. The new 3v3 and 1v1 modes are fun as well and the new tie breaker system in those modes is a lot better than draws. What happens now is that a capture point spawns in the map and whoever takes it first (or eliminates the opposition) wins. It draws players out of hiding.

Finally Lucio has a decent skin. I'm worried that the jazz music his crossfade plays will get old quick, though.

Ended the season at 2925, with a season 4 high of 2979. So close to Diamond. :(

Finished 3221: https://masteroverwatch.com/profile/pc/ ... Mazda-1378

Last game I ended up having a gold and unranked duo on my team against high diamonds and low masters, that was fun.

New patch out yesterday, with a new map and big changes to Reaper and Roadhog. The new map is a sniper's paradise, and it's really hard to defend the first capture point because of how many options the enemy has for attacking. I expect steamrolls to be frequent in QP.

New map feels huge. It's so open. Looks really nice. First cap point is indeed relatively easy to take, but the second point is above average hard to take.

My hard drive has died on my PC and with moving it hasn't been a priority to get sorted out. When I do sort it, I'll be playing again :up:

Big changes to the highlight feature, you can save them to your PC/console, and bookmark a match if something happens that you want to record. Also loot boxes will have drastically fewer dupes. No word on if people who bought loot boxes will see some sort of compensation, but I'm sure it's unlikely.

So, Doomfist is available on the PTR right now. He looks pretty cool. Not voice by Terry Crews though :(

Doomfist looks pretty cool, I'll be curious to try him out since I suck with hitscan but would still like to play an assault hero. :up:

I have to say, though, that it was a pretty daft move to make his regular melee attack use his non-gloved hand. :dork:

You have no idea how ignorant you sound.
But I guess that's your current M.O. in all things

He also lacks any basic social skills to be able to play a team-based game. We all know he'd place bronze and stay there.

I'm enjoying Doomfist quite a bit so far. Setting up combos takes a little practice, but it's worth it. It's immensely satisfying to charge into an enemy and knock them into a wall and kill them. The panicked reaction of a lone healer in an enclosed area with me makes me cackle with glee. :owned:

The change to loot box dupes is also welcome. I've already opened 2 boxes and no dupes yet. :up:

Doomfist can stun and knock down a charging Reinhardt (and vice versa) if they charge into each other, just like Rein vs Rein does.

Soldier's new skin has about a dozen custom voice lines, such as "tactical sunglasses activated," It's great. :up:

Can't wait for the new Junkrat map, I watched Seagull's stream while he played around with it at Gamescom and it seems promising.

I started maining Winston and I've climbed like 300 points in no time. Pretty close to master again, might get it before the season is done.

New Mercy changes coming. Her ult doesn't rez anymore, now that's her new E ability and it's single target only. Her ult is now kind of a personal nano boost that lets her fly. :up:
