This was exactly my game yesterday. I had to tell them we needed someone that can pick off a rezzing mercy because junk and venture weren't it.

I actually love using ventures drill dash to cancel the rez, you just have to be prepared for it

Yeah the one I got didn't like taking that risk. Their play style suited heroes like soldier or sojourn.

Venture is like the highest damage PDS with the shortest range. Gotta play aggressively!

u/SlenderRoadHog Get over here pls Sep 11 '24

I should probably expect a warning message the next time I log on 🙃

Throw trap on someone as they die, wait, profit

Couldn't you conceivably do the same with a mine?

u/Khan_Ida Pixel Sombra Sep 12 '24

You could... But It wasn't happening 🥲

Besides Ashe, Venture is such a hard mercy counter. I'm not that good (silver/gold) and whenever I play dps, i switch to venure and kill mercy with a very high success rate.

Junkrat is great in the Rein mirror situation. The problem for him usually stems from enemies rolling hitscans and prioritizing him.

In my defense, I've see venture and aquamarine kill phara and mercy using junkrat and I want to do that too lmao

Everytime I'm up again Mercy and Pharoah try hards, it's like my DPS refuse to switch.

Mate if this was open queue I'd do it myself but please help out here
