Turning 90 degrees mid teamfight to bring the hammer down on Mei is absolutely peak Rein. He might not have the mechanical skill yet but underneath he’s got the Rein-heart.
Imagine holding a game hostage for 30 min and being confident your skills will carry and outperform bronzes. Only to lose to those bronzes. I can't think of a better humbling experience.
Back in OW1, I'd run into people who would smurf gold just to grief both teams. They'd do stupid strategies that only work cause of the skill difference - like spawn camping with a pocketed Hog. Then they'd start BMing their team who's been having to take 4v5 team fights the whole game.
@@andreabenton7798 by "hostage" in this situation they mean that the two dps were actively delaying the end of the game, which basically "held the match hostage" and didnt allow for anyone to move onto other matches for 30mins, JUST because the dps willingly did nothing on defense. edit: like the match became a ping-pong/back-and-forth experience and was set up like that by the dps flats was pointing out :d
@Andrea Benton Well that's definitely a risk if they actually care about winning. If their goal is to push the match as far as possible, then one team fight where your bronzes die right away at the end of the game is gg. Even top skill players don't win 1v5 against bronzes.

I really don't understand, back in the early OW days, gold was PISSLOW and I mean PISSLOW elo. I understand that they are technically a smurf for playing in a lower division, but...
@@alexandrecuny2186 gold is not and never was "pisslow" its the average rank of an average overwatch player. Plat is already better than most players. And that's just facts...
@@DomenG33K gold in the early days of OW was painfully pisslow. I remember back in season 4 or 5 of the first OW running the account of a friend from low bronze to low plat in 3 hours

8:54 to explain him jumping around like that. At the end of rounds with a map like this it puts a "change spawn room" message and you can just keep pressing that button making you teleport around your spawn room
I remember a Gold game with an absolute gigachad Sig and Bap who forced a win despite our DPS duo que pulling this crap. The trolls threatened to report them too for ruining their XP farming. You meet the best and worst of folks in this game, sometimes both at once.
@JoJo-ke5yz tired of the cheater videos why? There's too much cheating. How to make it known to the devs? Constantly call them out. The devs don't care about the casual players they care only about the streamers and E-Sports. I see it with many games.
Rein slam damage is honestly the one thing they should never remove from rein. The nerf was acceptable but being able to just "POP" instanuke someone that is right on top of you disrespecting your space. My mans needs it.
Kind of off-topic, but I love the fact that two players on the enemy team are called "Feuerrabe" and "Feuerfrosch," which translates to fire raven and fire frog in German. They're probably a duo. (Edit: I kind of forgot that these are probably default Blizzard battletags. Still cute, though.)
I swear big streamers dont understand how often this happens. Regular players get these AFKs/trolls at least once a day. I climbed from bronze to diamond, nd i can tell u with absolute certainty that i found ppl like these in all the ranks. It gets less and less often the higher u go, but it still happens
If you have 2 dps trying to draw out the game, the idea is to take the enemies dps and send them to spawncamp the trolls, and then everyone else plays a game without dps. Of course this requires basically the entire lobby to work together, but I believe in random strangers to also have a burning hatred for said trolls
Both teams working together? I think I've seen enough lobbies where either team might have a cheater and the team with the cheater just hard going for the win. Even though they know they are rage hacking. Enough to know that ain't happening.
I love these spectating bronze videos cus I actually feel like I learn little things from your critique and bewilderment about some of the stuff these players are doing
I feel bad for the Rein having to take that L as collateral damage but hopefully he takes some solace in the fact that that Reaper got exactly what he deserved.
Does anyone know why Rein pin is so inconsistent? You can be standing dead center in front of him and it’ll bounce you off or you can be 3 feet above him and get vacuumed in and just die sometimes. Super annoying just for the uncertainty of playing with or against it
Yea as a rein main I know what you mean. They basically have to be directly in front of your charge to get grabbed by it otherwise they just get bounced away.
Bite you lip and say gg we got rolled and move on it ruins your headspace so if you don't give that impression the troll isn't having fun. Or t bag every kill for psychological damage.
my friend had a session where he played 20 games and 18/20 had throwers or spectating team mates. doesnt help that he’s gotten the same throwers so many times he’s recognized the username of every single thrower (not the defaut battlenet names)
8:54 Thats caused by the change spawn option they introduced a while back. When the point is lost you can tp to the new spawn but since it was the third point he just got tp'ed to the same spawn.
I still think making reins ult doing some damage was one of the best changes they made. I’m totally fine with it not being enough to one shot enemies, but even 100 damage is enough to secure a vital pick. I’m really liking where he’s at in the game. The other day I pulled up barrier at spawn for my widow, let her get some shots in without pressure. Then I dived onto payload to get it rolling.
@@Pedro_eqwthing is next match you play like shit because it kills your brain, if you want to improve you will but some days are hard and you cannot win every game by playing better.
As a casual console Andy your splashed in tips for characters really help a lot. Hope to see your adventures in other games too in the future. ( on RUclips)
Of course the one time Flats breaks his "its a you issue, dont blame your team, that happens like 1 out of 20 games, its meaningless, if you're good you'll climb" mentality, its for a Rein lol
Lol you're acting like his team would be able to do anything useful with the shatter to begin with, bro could slam all 5 of them right Infront of his entire team, they would absolutely struggle to get a pick.
When you switched to Tracer it didn't actually go to her location, it just loaded in her guns and HUD on top of Rein's location. It did the same thing when you went from Cass to Tracer.
I remember having this happen in plat as the two dps just went perma invis Sombra with a Tracer just blinking around enemies making fun of their aim. All the while once it mattered they would show up just to make the game longer... Was the only game I was glad we lost.
Having confidence is some weird secret drug in videogames. I remember when i used to play fortnite. I spent a lot of months being awful and mostly hiding to win games. Every time i was convonced i was dead and just YOLO'd for the fuck of it, i would inexplicably do pretty well. Cut to a few months later where im already convinced that i know what im doing and im actually pretty good at the game. TL:DR get in there and trust yourself. You wont get it right every time, but you will be playing your best
I love how flats is actually trying to help this rein lol he always says these aren’t educational but he saw this wasn’t the rein’s fault so he tried to help. Nice!
man this was really hard to watch. it was one of those games where you want to get out of it as fast as possible but some slimy troll keeps the entire lobby hostage.
Flats' energy in this is completely different than normal, its back to Old Flats, like Overwatch 1 reviews instead of the energy he normally has with this, and its almost offputting, but very much amazing to watch.
Got my game hijacked by a Lucio/Sombra throw duo pretending to be randoms and just trolling the game. The Sombra was actually playing their role at least, Lucio has 800 healing after 2 rounds, had 1 kill and 19 deaths. My only theory out of that game was that the Sombra was a smurf and playing the game to their advantage but the Lucio wasn't and was just hard throwing with their buddy in plat/diamond
Longer matches do give a little more xp but it's not a noticeable amount. Kinda annoying that they're doing this when new players just want to play the game.
Love the vids flats, i have learned so much about rein from watching your videos. Anywho, the other day i had a tank in comp, bronze 4, who was in voice coms and literally said "oh great another anna. Gg on the loss." We still won with me on mercy and the anna.
that teleporting in spawn at cap is fun, when they cap if your in spawn it gives you the "switch spawn" option, but it doesn't switch you, it just rerolls your position in the spawn room, and if you spam it you just blink around, only happens on payload defense in my experience
I'm really glad this video just popped up on my homepage because I just experienced someone holding a bronze game hostage for the first time yesterday. It was a mauga that just did nothing half the game on the enemy team. We ended up winning
9:00 that’s the new teleporting to next spawn feature, it considers that final spawn both the old and the new and since the teams spawn in lines, the teleport with put him in each of those spots 1 by 1 every time he presses the interact key
@9:12 I think it was a camera issue. You saw the camera for Tracer being in the same place as Rein's location and assumed Tracer was in Rein's location (but in reality, the camera hasn't moved to Tracer's actual location just yet).
I like this vid. I'm a bronze rein that recently hit gold and this gameplay reminds me a bit of my older self. You actually gave some great info this vid.
8:54 The game gives you the option to switch spawn at the end of a round on def payload, but if you press it it just putts you back in that spawn at a difftent location... so spamming it can be... jarring
9:00 at the end of a game it pops up with the switch spawn message but it just tps you randomly on the last spawn. That’s what happens if you spam it LOL
The Rein/Kiriko/Zen combo is truly beautiful. Since their DPS were full trolling, the Kiri focused heal/cleanse and the Zen basically became the DPS 😂 love that E: 6:40 elims E: 8:45 cleanse What a W trio 👌
Which swing tech do you want to use? I know how to shorten swings for a faster block cancel, or to aim the cross hair to the side of them to extend the swing, or swinging the camera in the direction of the swing, or just wiggling it slightly while mostly tracking the target?
i had no idea you were the one responsible for my favorite reinhardt mechanic. i used to be like "UOH IM GONNA SHAT ALL OVER THE ENEMY" now i know its called a "Flats Shat"
At the end of overwatch 1 I was a low silver tank and a low gold support. Now I’m a low diamond tank and haven’t touched my support, but let me tell you. Even when you carry as tank in low roles, it’s so hard to climb with throwers and smurfs, it’s impossible. The only reason I got out is because I started playing with a great group. One who was honestly a Smurf but we play with him because we genuinely like handing out with him. We are so much fun together it’s a good time
I’m not in bronze, but I’ve had many a game where there’s straight up nothing you can do when your team complete fails at everything and you just can’t do any more than you’re doing
It’s weird, there’s a few characters where doing the right thing will hold you back in lower ranks. Sombra/tracer for instance, your tank isn’t going to play too aggressive in low ranks because “where are the dps?!?!” And your distractions become useless
The key here is that the "right thing" changes depending on what your team is doing. You trying to toy with both of their supports while your team isn't pushing or engaged in a team fight isn't "the right thing". Their team will turn around and kill you and then your team is inevitably going to stagger in. If there are no plays to be made with dive characters...even if it's just at that portion of the map...swap off dive. That's the "right thing" to do. Swap back when it becomes useful again if you want. Sure at higher ranks, especially for dive characters, you'll find that more play options become available to you based on people generally being more engaged/active. It isn't your team's fault that you dove in and got burned though. Find the hole in your team's play and try to fill it with an appropriate dps character.
@@TheEpicTsube that’s what I mean though, unless something else is going on that didn’t get communicated to you the flex dps controls that engage, or is suppose to anyway. If your tank doesn’t know that then the entire playstyle of having a flex dps is completely out the window
The same thing happened to me recently. I was playing mercy and both mine and the other team were not playing and the only people playing was me (mercy) and the other teams mei. It was so frustrating went on for three rounds only to lose
Old video, but happens to me a lot. 1 day I win 4 in a row, next day so many afk and troll I lose 4. Now, if I lose one I take a break so the people I queued earlier will likely not be in my game. It works

i actually got held hostage in a game by the other team recently and beat myself up for not having had submit it
9:00 at the end of a game it pops up with the switch spawn message but it just tps you randomly on the last spawn. That’s what happens if you spam it LOL
The Rein/Kiriko/Zen combo is truly beautiful. Since their DPS were full trolling, the Kiri focused heal/cleanse and the Zen basically became the DPS 😂 love that
E: 6:40 elims
E: 8:45 cleanse
What a W trio 👌
Tracer’s not doing anything? Become the Tracer! 8:53
BRO
THAT REAPER PANIC ULT AT THE END OF THE MATCH MADE ME PHYSICALLY UPSET. 💀💀💀
9:25 seems like some bug with the spectator cam not updating properly when paused
17:16 - the way I cheered ... lmfaooo my poor neighbors
Slam Damage IS LITERALLY ALL BECAUSE OF YOU, AND EVERY SINGLE DAY I AM THANKFUL FOR IT. FOR GLORY AND HONOR

DEMON SLAYED! BONK
Is that LA Noire music in the background? What an inspired choice and good taste Editor.
The "okay I just witnessed an execution" got me
That boat...I survived a hog hook a few days ago thanks to that exact same boat, lol. That boat is either a devil, or an angel.
That's that L.A. Noire bgm. nice
Which swing tech do you want to use? I know how to shorten swings for a faster block cancel, or to aim the cross hair to the side of them to extend the swing, or swinging the camera in the direction of the swing, or just wiggling it slightly while mostly tracking the target?
The videos title is rein being hostage in a bronze lobby when i see the game the rein is dashing so stupidly i am impressed
a rare flats being nice to the bronze player actual poggers
“they’re making their own pve experience” is so crazy but true
So hard rooting for the success and failure of the exact same team
"Not really high rank, maybe Plat or Gold"
My ass sitting here barely able to make it out of silver: "I'm fighting for my fucking life!"
i had no idea you were the one responsible for my favorite reinhardt mechanic. i used to be like "UOH IM GONNA SHAT ALL OVER THE ENEMY" now i know its called a "Flats Shat"
I remember this I was the zen (NAVYVIPER) and the dps was complaining about not getting healed fast enough
oh my gosh that was you??
@@kablamoo101 yea
I think the rein didn't realize he had shatter in some of these fights lol
At the end of overwatch 1 I was a low silver tank and a low gold support. Now I’m a low diamond tank and haven’t touched my support, but let me tell you. Even when you carry as tank in low roles, it’s so hard to climb with throwers and smurfs, it’s impossible. The only reason I got out is because I started playing with a great group. One who was honestly a Smurf but we play with him because we genuinely like handing out with him. We are so much fun together it’s a good time
So you’re telling me I just watched a reaper do this for who knows how long to then lose because he panick blossom’d?
With the title of the video that summarized my competitive rein plays up until this week im finally getting somewhere
I’m not in bronze, but I’ve had many a game where there’s straight up nothing you can do when your team complete fails at everything and you just can’t do any more than you’re doing
It’s weird, there’s a few characters where doing the right thing will hold you back in lower ranks. Sombra/tracer for instance, your tank isn’t going to play too aggressive in low ranks because “where are the dps?!?!” And your distractions become useless
The key here is that the "right thing" changes depending on what your team is doing. You trying to toy with both of their supports while your team isn't pushing or engaged in a team fight isn't "the right thing". Their team will turn around and kill you and then your team is inevitably going to stagger in. If there are no plays to be made with dive characters...even if it's just at that portion of the map...swap off dive. That's the "right thing" to do. Swap back when it becomes useful again if you want. Sure at higher ranks, especially for dive characters, you'll find that more play options become available to you based on people generally being more engaged/active. It isn't your team's fault that you dove in and got burned though. Find the hole in your team's play and try to fill it with an appropriate dps character.
@@TheEpicTsube that’s what I mean though, unless something else is going on that didn’t get communicated to you the flex dps controls that engage, or is suppose to anyway. If your tank doesn’t know that then the entire playstyle of having a flex dps is completely out the window
respect on the la noire soundtrack playing!
14:50 You can headshot with Shatter???
Rein Main: This makes me question many of my games now.
The same thing happened to me recently. I was playing mercy and both mine and the other team were not playing and the only people playing was me (mercy) and the other teams mei. It was so frustrating went on for three rounds only to lose
Old video, but happens to me a lot. 1 day I win 4 in a row, next day so many afk and troll I lose 4. Now, if I lose one I take a break so the people I queued earlier will likely not be in my game. It works
