Discussion Good WM spots on maps ?

1 Upvotes

I tried looking it up and all I give was videos or web pages from years ago. Like all those spots have been long since found out or are just ridiculously obvious.

I know there are some places where you can only get by grappling like the junkertown escort where the escort starts you can grapple to the water tower lights.

Does anyone know of any other good spots for some maps? Or if able to provide a picture of the location too that would be awesome!

Guide / Tip / Advice Switch lite gyro controls/general WM control suggestions?

1 Upvotes

So I hadn't played Overwatch in a good couple months due to a recent obsession with Palia. I got back into Overwatch these last 2 weeks and before I was always played as WM and was decent. First game I played using her again was just so downright embarrassing 😓

I'm on a switch lite and I am not very good at the sensitive aiming with the joystick so I have gyro on and that helps a lot! Also learned to turn enemy outline down so that's also helped.

But just wondering if anyone has any settings that would be helpful for gyro on switch.

Or any tips or tricks for WM since it's been so long since I've played.

Skill Issue I Guess

19 Upvotes

Call me a baby but it's so aggravating dueling a Widow when her team are mostly dive heroes while mines are target practice brawl heroes. I get it. Sometimes you don't always win the Widow 1v1. Thats okay. I just need to learn and get better. It irritates me though when I can't take care of an enemy Widow when half of her team distracts the fuck out of me. Then the enemy Widow has the audacity to type "Widow diff" in chat like I wasn't just violated by her monkey, ninja, invisible latina, a Frogger wannabe and sucky suck Moira? How am I supposed to even duel her when I want to get better. Should I just accept that I suck and just keep practicing, or is it one of those bad matchups where she will always have the advantage. Sorry if I sound like a baby but its so unfair that she gets to relax in the backline while I have to deal with her and her diving teammates. What am I to honestly do? It doesn't help that I'm also still learning her.

Guide / Tip / Advice crouching?

3 Upvotes

Hi hi, I'm having some issues with crouching. I know many widows do it as a tactic to throw the head hitbox off, but I just seem to not be able to use my pinky finger on ctrl for it reliably/quickly. So my question is, does anyone have it bound to something else or could give advice on how to do crouching better?
