i used to wish i played ow1 more...but then i remember i did come back multiple times and it was usually very dead with 12mins queue for supp and upwards of 20 in dps
A little detail to add to season 8. By the time it was implemented most of the team went on holidays, so pretty much no one was available to do hotpatches like we now have, therefore we got stuck for a month with Mauga Meta for a long time. At least it was better than the year of goats
I’m so glad your channel is pretty much all positive / informative OW content. It gets so tiring seeing endless videos about how “greedy blizzard is” and how the “game is dead”. Definitely subscribed.
I mean to be fair, a lot of the hate towards overwatch/blizzard is warranted. The game as of now is really fun but let’s not act like it didn’t take blizzard 2 years to finally make ow2 enjoyable.
nah anything post ow2 season 8 has been utter garbage in my opinion, the hp rework kills any form of fast paced dps playstyle, tracer, genji etc can no longer make solo plays and one shot no matter how good ur mechanics are and it feels miserable
@@Legend_616 its not about balance its about what i said, the quick assasin playstyle and being able to one shot people from full hp is now nearly impossible and kills the fun for me... there is no "being wrong" its my opinion and many others feel the same
@@Rwils999 fair enough... lmao. Even tho I played support most of the time since I started in 2017 I mained moira for a time so I guess I got off scott free
I dont understand your comments on season 5 and dive. Due to a lack of communication and coordination dive was not played in the medal ranks (95% of the player base). Only in GM and perhaps Masters dive was effectively played. In the medal ranks dive heroes (!) were played but not dive as a concept (!). I really dont understand you problemizing season 5 as (quote) "one of the worst time of playing the game." Most players consider it being peak overwatch.
I remember seeing a stream of a support player during the mauga meta in ranked where the enemy tank had paid for mauga but the players tank hadn't brought the bp and was getting stomped and eventually the tank player left mid-game to go purchase the premium bp to be able to play mauga so they could actually have a chance of winning. insane how busted he was
Make an Overwatch 2 all seasons ranked video plz! All your videos are great quality and i love watching them. nice change for positivity tho. Not so sure on the Stylosa dig, even tho all his complaining about the gilded skins has been annoying recently and is not as bad as he makes out
Hate on brig all you want but the desire to NOT nerf dive in any shape or form is what led to its downfall. And right now, we are going back to the tracer and winston jail
I'm surprised that you didn't mention just how fucking miserable Sojourn was for the first eight seasons of the game. Literally for half a year straight, Blizzard just LET this character with almost as much mobility as Tracer, with an area denial tool the size of Mei's ult, with a better soldier 76 primary and Widowmaker sniper attached to it, run fucking RAMPANT throughout the game. Not only that, they gave her COMPENSENTORY BUFFS after slapping her on the wrist with shit like reducing her crit modifier on her rail gun which, ✨didn't fucking matter ✨ when that would still do 195 damage - a stray fart would end up killing any 200 hp squishy afterwords (or god forbid you were tracer.) Oh, and she would end up just getting pocketed by Mercy which let her have her one shot back until basically the Season 9 change, and her railgun was changed from 30-130 to 1-100.
I believe 6v6 was also made that number was because a 5v6 has a higher chance of winning then a 4v5. especially with how roles play a big part with who dies in a 5v5, compared to 6v6
I found your channel on like your first or second vid when you had 1k subs and I have been watching you ever since I have seen all your vids and keep up the good work I love you vids
I need my babygirl junkrat's mythic. I need a whole season for junkrat and junkrat only. my handsome ray of sunshine... nobody could make me hate him. he's so beautiful. so majestic. he deserves everything. I'd sell my soul to blizzard if they gave my wife a season and mythic....
No. I can never (and will never) forgive Blizzard for what they have done with Overwatch 2. Saying that it is in a better shape that how it was prior is both dishonest and ridiculous: THEY LIED! FOR SIX MONTHS STRAIGHT THEY LIED! You should NEVER let this lie slide. Remind them of the lies they served us at EVERY SINGLE TURN! Don't accept this failure that is Overwatch 2.
finally someone with a positive outlook on the game!! ofc ow has its questionable moments but I'm so tired of the negativity in the community thanks for your videos:) been subscribed since you had like 3 vids and will support you❤
You know what i hate about the current season tho? If you open the game, not know what date it is, you would not know about the halloween event except one little orange text BELOW the my hero academia colab text, before it was like "oooooh halloween, spoooookkyyyy background" now what? Now we get the bad (imo) deku skin and the other ok skins and not even a cool new pve mode in adlersbrunn, they just added some passive abilities into pvp and called it a day >:(
You were so unfair to season 5. For the casuals, the dive comp was just a fun strat that needed a skill to actually pull it off, you made it sound like it was as powerful as the goats. There were other strong comps during that time like Pharmacy, the Zarya+Rien with a Hanzo DPS and a Locio support, and Genji was pretty counterable. Even in the pro arena, players would pick charecters like Widowmaker with no problem.
10:12 I still believe only TikTok brains and people who don't follow Overwatch messaging could've been let down by how the PvE turned out to be. After all it's the same people who demanded Overwatch 2 devs to stop making the PvE because "the game would be dead" otherwise. I liked how the PvE was and would've gladly paid for future additions.
this vid is mostly a yap session. Season 5 Dive meta was considered some of the best and you missed most of of OW2 seasons. Lifeweaver was incredibly underpowered, Illari was OP af with pylon on release and s1 of OW was a complete and utter failure of a launch. Also calling content creators doomers for calling out shitty microtransactions is just interesting
every new season it feels worst and worst, when you think they cant fuck the game more bam, they fuck the game more, and every ow2 season will be bad without pve
Keller had nothing to do with the greedy corpa decisions Blizzard instilled on them. The downfall of Blizzard started when they merged with Activision, but for more deepdive analysis, I recommend watching a video of the creator by the name of Flats that goes over an article, which talks about the shifting mindsets of people working at Blizzard under Bobby Kotick etc. Even if you don't like Flats, he makes good points and goes over the entire article - which, in return, explains EVERYTHING that happened to Overwatch while switching from 1 to 2
It's sad because I'm a minor and they got rid of the feature to add people and they got rid of voice chat so I can't talk to people I can't add people I can't invite people it's really just alone and it's a social game And just really bad Sombra was one of my favorite heroes top 5 to be exact and they got rid of her they butchered her so now it's just like really bad can't even play her 😔
its possible some people prefer more parts of ow2 rather than ow1 . both had extremely high highs and very low lows it depends on how each player weighs every individual aspect of both games :)
Dont get me wrongn, but saying OW2 is pretty good hurts. U seem like a average player so u should know most stuff they did since ow2 was lying? They nearly did nothing the fans got promised on, balancing is pretty rough, skins are wayyyyy to overpriced and more
