the map with the cars is so dumb

why

PTR update

Roadhog Hook
- Added some more line of sight checks towards the left/right of a potential hook target. This means it should be easier to hook someone who is sticking halfway out of a doorway, or behind a thin pole, etc. These checks are also used for the persistent line of sight check, so if a hook target moves behind a slim object like a stump or a lightpole, they won't be released anymore.
- Hooked targets are now slowed heavily while they are stunned, even if they are in the air. This means if someone is strafe jumping away from you and you land a hook, they are a lot less likely to slide out of line on sight, breaking the hook.
- Fixed a bug that could allow you to hook someone and pull them behind you if you spun around before the hook landed.

Ana
- Biotic Grenade duration reduced from 5s to 4s

Sombra
- Hack cooldown reduced from 12s to 8s

these changes are coming out fast & cool

tried playing with a steam controller and gyro controls, as hanzo

target range made me feel good about myself, so i went up against bots

i'm not touching a controller for a fps for another million years

they also made the hack faster to execute in a previous ptr patch and you can apparently hack sym turrets now with the ultimate
but really being able to use the hack more often is a change that was very needed considering how you have to manage her cooldowns and how much you had to "choose" between hacking a health pack or an enemy

[Ladle]

screw this, the only times I win games is when I do bad


edit: hi I'm Ana and I have 4 golds except in healing

I just pulled two widow one-shots in a row on 1v1 where I simply grapple onto the roof and the enemy grapple up in the air.

High ground isn't everything :3

ok the "your competitive score next season depends on you competitive score last season" thing is complete horse stuff because once you're in the depths of bronze there's no crawling out of that hell

to give you an idea of the people i'm paired up with, imagine for a moment using earthshatter and getting nearly the entire team stunned, and the second you try to kill them while they're down your team's mei blocks the entire path off and by the time her wall clears the entire enemy team has recovered. this is some genuine horse stuff

[Nymph]

its not all about you though. You have to think about all the high ranking players people would have to face if they reset SR and did the placements again.
