Man, I remember reading in patch notes that Junk no longer self damages. I considered him to be OP and mained him all the time. I wasnt even close to the best but I was consistently getting golds and stopping/finishing pushes. The day they removed self damage I felt like a GOD. What I wouldnt give to go back to such simpler times...
This event is a Blizzard psyop to harm the 6v6 arguments. No one in their right mind has said "let's go back to vanilla OW1! The game was so much better with mass rez, soul orbs Reaper, 6 Torbs, 8 second Genji Blade, etc!"
@@nathanbally this is a completely separate event from the actual 6v6 testing, this one is purely a nostalgia thing (and it worked, necros back on ow for a bit)
@@hihigocat Who's nostalgic for vanilla OW1? If y'all are that desperate for classic OW at this point then my god, give up. I don't have rose-tinted glasses on about vanilla OW1, we are talking about a game that after like 2 months of public feedback post launch the devs had to fundamentally change the game and implement hero limits.
brother is a goody silly mode, ofc no one wants to go back to day 1 OW permanently but it is fun to play and be silly. Which was a huge appeal thing back then, the game was whacky. even if its anything on the backend its probably to test 6v6 stability in the 5v5 engine
8:12 Napoleonic Warfare Overwatch Edition, truly the rolling volleys never fail. A true french passtime Even funnier if they get Reinhard, because its stuff like this that made knights in plate armor obsolete over time despite a muskets reload time
Hey Mr Phish, I was the widow at 13:54. Never thought I would get the chance to play against you. Good luck with RUclips and twitch! PS. Thanks for the bot movement, I suck at widow and can’t hit shit if you don’t move in a straight line.
I've been watching this channel since OW1 Beta, fell off for OW2 but this is exactly the nostalgia I needed! It's nice to hear some of these callouts and BS strats again. PLEASE do at least one "gets it done again" during this event, just for old times' sake!
i was a consistent viewer ~6-8 years ago and then personally fell off from overwatch. i was playing a new game and the bow combat reminded me of hanzo for some reason so i went and rewatched the "hanzo is a class" video which is still hilarious and then thought i should check out some of your newer stuff. this video was a perfect thing to come across and it made me so happy to still see you playing with bumbler and jenetic. glad to see you're still doing well, phish!
Everyone playing old Lucio and seeing how impossible getting the floor is lava's achievement used to be is like that Justice League movie where they all got the Flash's powers and could see how unbearable it is to deal with.
Back when OW was fun in a goofy way before it has gotten seriously competitive. How nostalgic. I miss the goofiness of OW. Hoping they'll bring back Junkenstein lab mode. It's the kind of OW I want to play.
Admittedly I never played OW1 but it's crazy that people call it "goofy" since I always thought that Overwatch was ALREADY overly serious and competitive compared to something like TF2
overwatch has always had the trouble of catering to casual vs competitive playerbases and the drop in goofiness shows it. i think they've struck a decent balance now with the limited modes and custom games and it's thanks to them that the game continues to survive otherwise it would only be the super competitive players left
I think having situational heroes in the game that excelled at one thing like the old torb, bastion and symmetra added more depth to the game, but they've all been reworked to be more generalized heroes with almost the same playstyle as most other dps characters. And bastion's tank form was much more fun compared to what it is now, just doom's meteor strike * 3. Symmetra's moving barrier and TWO ultimates was so unique. Unfortunately they're probably never gonna go back to how they were in their "prime"(I might be totally biased, I just think they were much more interesting back then and as a flanker, I loved getting hp boosts from torb and symmetra haha)
Blizzard: People are getting a bit bored of OW2. We need something new to shake things up and get people to play again!! I know what we can do!! Something new, something never seen before!! Overwatch... Classic!
when I first played this mode my first thought after picking lucio was "wow this wall ride is ass, how did I get the achievement like this?" and then it was "wow my amp speed covers the whole map and is 2x faster"
About Lucio wall ride, turn off both settings Wall Ride Backward and Wall Jump on Release so you can do wall jump like before however you have to spam jump 3 times
Overwatch players having to adjust to how the game used to be played: Me who hasn't cared about Overwatch since the first two years it was out: This is just normal?
Seing all these positive comments kinda confuses me ngl, i thought the mode sucked balls - no heroes, balance or general gameplay direction, feels more like a test server more than anything. But to each their own i guess, at least people can chose now
Can’t believe I watched a 2016 Saltyphish OW vid without the mop being mentioned or teabagging play
I can guarantee you on stream I went for the pre-bag spray and ult combo a bunch of times but people are just too aware nowadays
@@SaltyPhish ur spy sucks
@@SaltyPhishthat sounds like an excuse to me
@SaltyPhish skill issue smh my head
That carousel widow peek is such a legendary clip lmao.
If all 6 Zen trans my Blade I might actually uninstall holy f'k that's so rude D:
This legit felt like I was watching a 2016 OW video again. Just a six stack of friends playing the game to have as much fun together as they can. ❤
It's back! For, like... 3 weeks only.
The gamemode is going to keep coming back with more updates as it goes through the years
@LethalByte69 It shouldn't have left in the first place.
Our only hope is it remains in the code for custom lobbies.
More like, a week. Next week we go to Moth Meta, and week 3 is Goats lmao
Dude, my life has been an a constant decline since they took away Our Overwatch. If it comes back... I want it to come back.
Seeing Junkrat killing himself with selfdamage is praiseless

As unbalanced as it may be in places, it's been really fun so far, and it brings back some good(?) memories of playing right around launch.

THE UNSUCCESSFUL WINSTON DIVE 😂
25:54 Bumbler had the best response to someone asking if it was the real Phish.
11:03 that is one of the craziest jokes I’ve heard in an OW video lmao
I CAN FINALLY RE-EXPERIENCE AN ACTUAL FUN AND BALANCED BASTION ULT LETS GO
8:12 Napoleonic Warfare Overwatch Edition, truly the rolling volleys never fail. A true french passtime
Even funnier if they get Reinhard, because its stuff like this that made knights in plate armor obsolete over time despite a muskets reload time
Only a shimada can control the dragons
Shimada so fat
OH MY GOD
Who are you?
7:36 "You're up against the french"

PS. Thanks for the bot movement, I suck at widow and can’t hit shit if you don’t move in a straight line.
Username checks out!
5:26 “Mr Phish…. A second Reinhardt has arrived”
You mean 35:26?
A second Reinhardt just hit the Mercy 😢
Conspiracy theory: they made the characters slightly worse than they were, so people won’t miss OW1 as much
The one favorite clip of volskaya was when lewi and twobolt were arguing if pluto was a planet
Can’t wait for phish’s PHAT mops again 😭
men stressed
men sees 6v6 widow
men happy
Gotta love the ragdoll at 6:27 after old flashbang
watch yo tone mf
17:10 POV: You live in the middle east in 2008 n America found out about the oil
Reminds me of my first potg as Torb. In spawn. While my sentry was on the payload. Good times.
33:54 this imploded all my organs
I’m still laughing
The Harambe mention was wild! xD I relived this s* within seconds.
best video of all time I cried laughing like 5 times holy shit
It's a broken unbalanced mess but it is nostalgic to play this once more
11:09 How is this the second video Ive seen about how Overwatch Killed Harambe LMAO
3:05 Anubis was my first map ever, I played Reaper and my friend played Mercy. Fun times, I hope this game mode stays.
I haven't played the game at all since Overwatch 2 came out but I've been watching your videos, I forgot how much changed this is so nostalgic!
hearing slickery again awakened memories I didn't know I had
Ypu know its peak 2016 OW when Phish is STILL in his NY place
I've been watching this channel since OW1 Beta, fell off for OW2 but this is exactly the nostalgia I needed! It's nice to hear some of these callouts and BS strats again. PLEASE do at least one "gets it done again" during this event, just for old times' sake!

It will truly be 2016 once Salty "gets it done again".
I forgot how terrible support felt in 2016
Should've added about 50% bit crush to your voice in order to get the OG saltyphish experience for this
"Is that the real SaltyPhish" "We're all lucio, what do you think" absolute cinema
_this_ is fun. It can be annoying and exhausting, but it’s _fun_ I’ve missed its era of ow and I’m so happy to have it back even for a brief moment
Yeah current Ow is just kinda boring. The game is probably more balanced- but no more of that crazy chaos and nonsense that comes he OG had
"EEEEEEW BROTHER EEEEEEEEW, WHATS THAT BROTHER"
12:27 man this 2fort gameplay is crazy
Everyone playing old Lucio and seeing how impossible getting the floor is lava's achievement used to be is like that Justice League movie where they all got the Flash's powers and could see how unbearable it is to deal with.
might honestly be one of the funniest Salty Phish videos ever, i miss OW1
First time I've really wanted to play overwatch in 5 years
4:43 someone should make a RUclips video just about their struggle to get the achievement I bet it’d get like 14 million views.
The Zens all ulting immediately after Genji blade is hilarious
I wish this was a permanent game mode.
I forgot how insane Lucio's speed boost was. I literally got whiplash whenever my team's lucio speed boosts
"I can't believe we used to play the game like this"
"I haven't had so much fun playing OW as I have this weekend"
"THE SECOND REINDHART HAS ARRIVED" - Bumbler 2024 5:26

Junkenstein's Lab comes back every october. It just got rotated out of arcade with this patch.

Same with TF2, except the game is just on lifesupport.
Its been gone for so long, but i still quote "come get yer armor" in any game it can pertain too
First unsuccessful Winston dive was wild 😂😂😂😂
This is how I remember overwatch. Everyonehaving fun and is not worried about SR.
17:31 do you mean McCree? There's no hero named Cass in 2016 Overwatch 🧐
35+ minutes of OG Overwatch and not a single reference to Phat Mops.
4:40 your Lucio video was how I was introduced to your content years ago lol
People always say Harambe dying set us on the dark timeline, but they always forget his death was directly caused by the release of Overwatch
They better add this as a permanent gamemode is so unbalanced and stupid but the important part is very fun
24:07 brother does not know about DSPStanky
Blizzard: People are getting a bit bored of OW2. We need something new to shake things up and get people to play again!!
I know what we can do!! Something new, something never seen before!!
Overwatch... Classic!
"9/11 hasn't happened yet" is crazy, Slikery is so damn funny
4:38 Obviously what you have to do is try to get the Lucio achievement again on Overwatch Classic. It's free content.
wait that means old genji is back WE ARE SO BACK
the most nostalgic thing in this video is slickery
I swear to god, every OW1 OG players first map was somehow temple of anubis. I remember 100% it was even mine. It's like, uncanny.
The wallride relied on an engine bug which has since been fixed so it is much harder now in OW Classic than when the game first came out to wall ride.
when I first played this mode my first thought after picking lucio was "wow this wall ride is ass, how did I get the achievement like this?" and then it was "wow my amp speed covers the whole map and is 2x faster"

This brought me on a nostalgia trip to 2016. Janky Overwatch on launch was unbalanced, but crazy fun.
THIS is what I watch Phish for 1!!!
They gotta make this permanent. So many of us OGs would come back
I’m never taking mercy’s movement for granted ever again
God just take me back to 2016 and watching salty phish vids 😭
"he's not gay yet" bro that was savage
Overwatch players having to adjust to how the game used to be played:
Me who hasn't cared about Overwatch since the first two years it was out: This is just normal?
It's back to feeling more like Team Fortress 3
I'm sorry but this video missed a clip of Salty dying to a scatter, i can't believe it never happened lmao
Omg the carnival Strats with the widow 😂
Classic Overwatch is amazing and super fun until legit anyone picks widow
First Phish upload in years.
Aint no way we’re getting “Lucio’s Impossible Achievement 3”
Missed opportunity to make a teleporter right above a ledge
Hanzo is a class, its lucio as a tank, its in the refrigerator, ssslide it in.
I pre ordered this game for $80 back in 2016 lol. I am loving this game mode and still loving your content
I still remember Phish’s Lucio archievement video gosh
This video is pure joy
Come get yer armor!
just started the video, very excited for hook ‘em and cook ‘em tactic.
Seing all these positive comments kinda confuses me ngl, i thought the mode sucked balls - no heroes, balance or general gameplay direction, feels more like a test server more than anything. But to each their own i guess, at least people can chose now
Crazy to think release Overwatch pretty much has as much content as 2024 Overwatch
this video is so nostalgic, reminds me of the time salty was actually funny.
Not even 9 seconds in...and OMFG how did I not think of that joke, lmao they better have given him his old name back ffs
Heard Sym's Shield can be used on someone who already has a shield to top the shield back up when damaged
Back when Overwatch was fun as hell.
MAD respect to the eliminate shirt. I have the same one
0:09 lol that was the first thing i asked my friend when yhay told me about the mode
I love how youre still talking about that lucio achievement. You really peaked on that one
For a limited time, Overwatch is good again.
10:22 is the best bit lmao
need to see the warthog chain and mouse shake method used on an enemy again
There’s the only Voice lines of genji mercy, before that one writer wrecked it and made it phara mercy only
