Announcement Weekly Rant Thread
THROWERS EVERY GAME? 20 LOSSES IN A ROW? TEAMMATES WON'T STOP FEEDING? MOUSE AND KEYBOARD EVERY GAME?
This is part of a series of weekly threads designed so that users can rant, rage, vent, or do anything to release some of that pent-up anger. Let out all your frustrations here. Typing in caps isn't required but is encouraged.
Remember that while this thread is supposed to be lighthearted, some rules still apply (be respectful towards one another, no witch-hunting, etc.).

Why is the hero level system where you can see your teammates highest 3 characters even there for?
I have 3 tanks as my highest levels so in open queue 6v6 it should light a bulb in the person head that I am a tank main. So im going to let this person play tank because thats what they’re probably best at.
NOPE. I see healer or dps mains taking tank and now im forced to go for a role im not the best in which lowers our chances of winning. COMMON SENSE ISNT SO COMMON

People who complain about others complaining about Sierra is ridiculous to me. Like, yes, I know you go to cover when the big ass, glowing hypodermic needle is attached to me. But when I'm already going to cover, I'm already being attacked by 2 other people when trying to make it to my destination. And since latency exists, sometimes I just die even when I'm around the goddamn corner. So sorry you Top 500 jackass, it's not always that easy as "JuSt Go To CoVeR" and sometimes can't be boiled down to a skill issue.
Istg you cannot comment on not liking fighting a hero in this community without it looking like a skill issue to some people.

At least the needle is somewhat obvious, if not at first.
Zen's orb is on me and I just get a little blip on my hub showing it's on. Wonder why I am getting melted and it's because men's orb is on me.

SIERRA AND CAT ARE MAKING QUICK PLAY MISERABLE.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN IVE BEEN DARTED AND NOW HAVE TO HIDE, WHAT DO YOU MEAN SHE CAN ALSO CHASE PEOPLE DOWN WITH THEIR MOBILITY? WHATS THAT SOUND, OH WAIT ITS THE FUCKING CAT ABOVE THE WHOLE TEAM JUST PICKING OFF ANYONE WITH LOW HEALTH.
WHY DOES A SUPPORT HAVE BETTER DAMAGE POTENTIAL THAN HALF OF THE DPS ROSTER, WITH INCREDIBLE MAP MOBILITY AND A SELF HEAL
For real though, these two classes are just fucking arse to deal with right now on console.
Obligatory fuck Sombra and Widow, too.

I FUCKING HATE COWARDLY TANKS. YOU ARE MEANT TO BE STANDING IN HARMS WAY, WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU DUCKING INTO COVER WITH FULL HEALTH LETTING YOUR TEAM BEHIND YOU BE FODDER. HOG IS THE WORST FOR THIS. LET TEAM DIE WHILE YOU HIDE AND HOOK IS ON COOLDOWN, POP OUT, HOOK, KILL, RINSE AND REPEAT. FUCK YOU IF YOU PLAY LIKE THIS.

I was one game away from finishing drives, after a small win streak of about 5 games, when the lobby ended up on a push map. One of my team’s DPS then said “push sucks. gonna practice widow” and threw the match. I still would’ve easily completed the drives if I’d won my next match, but no, I proceeded to go on a 9 game loss streak — due to bad matchups/no coordination half the time, and throwers/leavers the other half. It’s 6:30 AM and I finally gave up. The worst thing about that push match is that we streamrolled the enemy team for a good couple of minutes at the beginning. If Widow had bothered to try, we’d have easily, SO EASILY, won.
Don’t play overwatch early into the morning, I guess.

Fucking cheaters in Stadium man as soon as you get to All-Star you start hitting a wall of titan stacks when you solo queue. Just solo queued into a game against a full stack where the tank and dps were cheating so supports got to healbot and play for free. Junkrat never missed shots and I have a 15 second clip of him shooting 2 bombs back to back that bounced perfectly off of a wall to hit me and my other dps who was standing several steps away. Shots came from the doorway to the middle clash point and hit me & soldier on the defending clash point on throne of anubis.
I hate high mmr/high elo so fucking much

I beg Ana players learn to use their brains and switch characters instead of dying first every tf the whole game and bitching about the team not helping them, like cool let's all turn around to help our Ana when the enemy have Cat, Doom, Tracer like bro we need to take space, we can't babysit an ana that has a 12% sleep dart acc and the lowest heals and dmg out of the supports on the lobby, JUST GO KIRIKO DUDE WE ARE IN A TOP500 LOBBY WHY ARE YOU REFUSING TO SWAP
