Another video from a couple nights ago. I start out as Soldier 76, but keep getting my butt kicked, so after my first death in the second round, I switch to the healing pokemon, Lucario.

 
I always enjoy how Terrik is shocked that my healing done is so low when he knows damn well I spend most of the time using blue beam.

ALSO, so much vote betrayal. :(
 
Special mention to the incompetent Symmetra who placed the teleporter outside the base entrance, meaning you'd teleport all of three feet. Woo.
I mean, there are times this is a thing. Like when you're defending the B point of Hanamura or Anubis, or an escort is pushing up to your gate and every tiny second counts.

I hear through the grapevine that Torbjorn gets all the POTGs on the console version. Which speaks to my convictions about the lunacy of trying to play a FPS with thumbsticks.
 
The problem is his turret is exactly the same, AI wise, on PC and console. It's actually become a major complaint because the fucking thing is the most accurate and lethal character ingame on the console version.

In other news I've now gotten a Gold Medal for healing...

...on Roadhog.

ONE MAAAN APOCALYPSE

I've said for over 10 years that I don't understand why console don't offer a mouse and keyboard option.

Because no console player wants to use a 120-button controller.

The funny thing is, the PS2 supported any USB keyboard. The only time I ever saw it used, though, was to take advantage of the chat feature in talking smack online on NFL 2K-whatever.

The Sega Dreamcast supported a keyboard and mouse. I used them for quake and phantasy star online.

Well, SNES had a mouse, too, if we wanna get right down to it... but I just thought that, since sixth-generation consoles and on were all basically using USB connections for controllers anyway, it would seem a no-brainer to add mouse and keyboard support.[DOUBLEPOST=1466109188,1466108634][/DOUBLEPOST]


Well, his first name IS "Gabriel..."

Then why doesn't his mask look like it's having a massive seizure?

[DOUBLEPOST=1466118321][/DOUBLEPOST]How appropriate that Pharah/Mercy seems to be a ship.

That gave me a really weird crossover with Borderlands 2. It started off as like "He's actually the source of all the guns on Pandora in Borderlands", then it was like, "Huh, actually since guns are fucking everywhere in that game, maybe that's where he gets them?" Then "Die! Die! DIE!" would be a really useful skill in Borderlands 2.

help.
 
TIL Pharah can also kill herself with an ult, especially when an ulted Winston jumps in her face while she is using it. (But hey, I killed him :p)
