Game ended with me getting 40 kills and 14 deaths

Hey, I am an old overwatch 1 player recently returned to OW2. In the old days I played somewhere between plat and diamond and would love to get back to that level. I feel like I lost a lot of knowledge and the game massively changed in general. I think I have around 50hrs with tracer now and feel still pretty bad. I do love Tracer although sometimes I feel like I am massively underperforming. My biggest pain points are probably game sense, knowledge where my team and the enemy team is and blink management. Very often it feels far too chaotic, maps like Ilios or Lijang are a good example for that. I wonder if there is anything I can focus on to improve. I do know the videos from Spilo holding a short off angle, timing with the team etc. and try to incorporate that into my gameplay. Sometimes that works, often it doesn’t probably because my timing is off as my team oftentimes dies before I can have any impact. I’d really like to respark my love for that game but I am getting more and more frustrated. I also know that my mechanics are not on a high level and am working on it, however I do believe they should at least be good enough for gold.

I’d really appreciate if someone could look at that cod and highlight a few low hanging fruits, bad habits I have etc. this one I felt I did fairly alright, although it seems like it was quite chaotic due to a pretty decent ball on the enemies team. I am also usually better with my pulse bombs (promise!). I am very grateful for any comments and support. I do know it’s not my team it’s me, and even if it would be my team for where I want to go I should be very easily be able to carry a silver game.

as the title states, this is a f*cking nightmare. i’ve been playing since ow’s release. when i got more serious about it, i easily made it to diamond. then time goes on and ow2 comes out 😐 the highest rank i’ve made so far is low plat but have dropped as far as bronze….. i only play role queue seriously. open queue is also a nightmare but not as bad since i can really make up anyone’s slack by switching. anytime i play role queue now really after season 9 i believe, its just… so bad. seldomly i’ll get a good team that knows what their actually doing. good other support, a good flank that doesn’t die, another good defensive or at least one that can hit their shots dps, and a tank that isn’t getting brutally murdered.

this last match i just played. we had a nonstop switching tank. echo that was decent but kept straying so far away neither support could heal her. a cassidy that literally installed the game yesterday. no joke bro had no idea where he was at or what he was doing. he ulted when we were ALL dead and in front of the enemy team like it would be his saving grace (he got ana darted). an ana that was doing ass then switched zen… which was no better. he was so focused on dmg that he only got 4k heals in the end…then me, who was absolutely trying my hardest to keep everyone alive. i usually play mercy or juno when my teammates are THIS bad since i feel like i can output a lot of healing with them. but no when we started doing good, the enemy pulled out sombra and somehow my teammates just factory reset to default settings. i’d ping sombra they’d do nothing. obviously they won. the entire time i was being tbagged by sombra. it was just a mess. i enjoy this game but i know i am not a silver player. maybe high gold like open queue or maybe even plat who knows. if i just had a good team maybe? i don’t know. i do know this game has endless memes about their matchmaking crap. i wanna hear y’all’s thoughts and opinions on this topic.

[EDIT] since people think im crying about being stuck gold/silver, i’m really not. i hardly ever cry about teammates as it’s usually not the whole team doing this bad. obviously i need to improve, just like anyone else. but none of you can sit here and tell me that you’ve not had teammates throw or do overall bad in general. i’ve even had matches where I’VE done bad. i am not saying im the best on my team 100% of the time. i do a lot of study about my mains. im always willing to learn which is why i made this post but i feel like people are getting the wrong idea. i know a good bit about who i play, their kits, movement, positioning and whatever else. i made the post to be a discussion and learn tips. not get hated on.

I am the ashe/torb/cass on team 1. Streamer mode name "guardianangel"

We stopped their push after p1, decent first round.

2nd round, I decided I'd play torb till p1 as well, he's not a character I usually play, especially if I want to win. I dont play him very often so when I do its mostly just for fun, and I swapped immediately after ulting anyways.

Then we just couldnt get the last tiny push to win. Our rein just kept getting deleted, especially since their tank swapped to ram. How could I have saved this game?

Hi all, i'v'e been trying to pick up ashe as a secondary pick being a cass main, but i just CANNOT for the life of me hit shots. I don't know if its my sensitivity or i just suck and its a skill issue, but i do pretty fine on cassidy, hitting a lot of shots(albeit not all of them).

My sens on cass is 7.50

Moved to ashe 7.50 with a 51.47 scoped accuracy thing.

Is it just different, and ill have to get used to it? or am i having a skill issue.

sorry for lackluster post but i cannot find any help, when moving from cass to characters like ashe or widow(whom i also struggle on). If you need any more of my stats or settings lmk pls, any help appreciated.

I was the best in almost every stat. Pls just look at it and tell me if i am doing something wrong or if I am just unlucky with teammates. I'm not saying that i am the best player but definitely better than my current rank

This happens to me like 7 times out of 10 games. I just can't do anything more to turn the match around and Moira is usually my last resort because of the high damage and heal so that I can carry the game a bit more. I really don't know what else I am suppose to do.

Some background: In OW1 I was a tank player, Hog and Rein were the only heroes I would play. In OW2 however I’ve not really touched tank until this season.

I’ve climbed from silver to plat so far and have been using 4 tanks primarily: Rein, Hog, Mauga and Winton

My question is should I be looking to add another tank to my roster? I know playing loads of hero’s can be quite limiting and not recommended but was just wondering if anyone would suggest just one other hero I should look to pick up?

People always tell me to make plays, even if I’m playing support. But it feels like (in lower ranks) when I try to go for that little bit of damage my tank just falls over. Could be due to poor positioning, I’m not sure. I feel like if I’m not constantly pumping heals into my team, they play respawn simulator. Is this a normal feeling?

I want to add - there always seems like there’s a huge lack of peels lately? I’m guessing this is also a lower rank thing. But I’ll always ping when there’s an enemy behind me. Or I’ll ask the tank to fall back. No response, they just carry on and die. Alternatively, I’ll die and they’ll angrily spam for heals. Is this strictly a lower rank thing or is just the over watch experience? I keep de-ranking because of these issues and I’m not sure how much more I can take. It feels like no one listens to me, and then they yell at me. Sorry for the rant, I think I just need some support? Thanks.

I am tired of hitting headshots, doing 20+ kills every game only to lose and derank to bronze 1, PLEASE I NEED YOUR URGENT ASSISTANCE.

I have about 50 hours in the game now, I love playing him as nothing feels more satisfying than hitting a headshot with that revolver, I always get endorsements, but I just keep losing for some reason.

VOD/ REPLAY/ - A34WDM, I need some seasoned cassidy masters to explain to me what should I improve on, thank you.

diamond 5-3 here (i keep fluctuating)

im trying to pick up snipers, like widow and hanzo, but since then, ive gone on a losing streak, i feel like hanzos arrows are a 1 in a million to headshot. i typically play mei, torb, and genji/tracer. i dont know how much i need to improve and learn, so i need perspectives from others

heres my most recent match, i know i made many mistakes, like staying in and flanking while my tank died in 3rd round, and i wasted plenty dragons, but im sure theres much more than im aware of.

So a bit of backstory. I'm a tank player mostly by necessity. I don't find it enjoyable to sit in queue for 15 minutes to get a 7 minute match on dps or supp so I just go with flex queue (aka tank queue 2.0) for instant matches. I mostly play Ball since I find him very fun to play. This season Mauga has been a plague on my games and I find him extremely hard to play against without mirroring and I don't want to play him since I think he is the most boring hero gameplay wise in the entire game.

I think I did decently well this game with trying to just ignore him but it didn't seem to work well enough. I think my biggest problem is target priority and aim but I would love to have some feedback on my games. Thank you in advance for anyone willing to help!

Hi everyone I’m new to overwatch 2 game (never played overwatch 1 as well) and need to have 50 quickly play matches won to unlock competitive is anyone here interested in helping me out?

I’m here to also make friends and play with others online!

Whoever is interested to help, send me a private message and I’m on eastern standard time and I play on pc version by the way.

Im a pretty new player(like a week) and I started playing Venture recently cause I thought they were interesting. I’m doing pretty well but I feel like I struggle in some spots.

I used to mainly play tanks heroes like Sigma, Mauga, and Dva so I think I’m going in too hard thinking I have more health and can survive. I definitely have more problems so that’s why I came here.

I’m also looking for some general tips in playing Venture.

This was a winning game and I feel I did good but I feel like there were plenty of things I could do better like is my positioning correct? Is my target priority correct? And overall are there things I could be doing better?

I'm a Kiriko-Lucio 2 trick, I've been stuck Diamond 5 the past few seasons and managed to climb to Diamond 2 before falling back down to Diamond 4 this season. I'm hoping I can get to masters soon! I've VOD reviewed myself a couple of times and I think my main issue is that I overextend and die first a lot, if I recall I got sonic'd and headshot without knowing this game, pretty stupid in retrospect. Besides that, I felt I played pretty strongly this game, however my team still ended up losing. We had a pretty horrendous early game defending and attacking, but we managed to pick it back up and almost push the payload before losing last fight and losing the game. Thanks much!

Hey guys,

First time posting here. With the recent drive event, I dropped to gold 2, formerly plat 5. I usually play Juno and Kiriko, when we can benefit from nade I swap to Ana. I used to suck at Kiriko and was good at Ana, but for the last 2 weeks my performance has swapped, idk why.

This game was in King's Row, which is one of my favorite maps to play Ana in. So, I decided to just start with her and stayed her the whole game as I thought i was doing fine. I have been working on my positioning and staying safe. Yet, during enemies attack round one of my DPS said "heals????". I told them they were not on my LOS, so I couldn't heal as I didn't want to peek enemy widow. They told me that I shouldn't be playing Ana if I am too scared to heal.

I finished the game with most heals, less deaths and I think I did fine with my sleep darts especially. I don't think I'd have the guts to peek a widow with any of healers unless I know for a fact they're not good at hitting their shots. Please tell me where I can improve, especially with positioning. I know my aim isn't the best (I was never into fps games up until few years ago where I stumbled upon valorant) and I simply don't think it is going to get any better at this age (Hello 30+ gamers!). But I would love to know better about my cooldown usage & positioning. Also, please tell me if it's worth peeking a widow to heal a teammate.

I feel really lost as tank. I can get away with half decent aim and positioning on dps and support, but my silverness is heavily exposed on tank. I am not sure what I am doing wrong, or even first tips and principles to be successful. When I review my vods, I am not even sure what to look out for. I can find simple mistakes that I make and the ones that are GLARING, but other than that I am lost. I would love some direction, and to be put on my feet to get going in this journey to climb. I haven't been playing that long, and would love to learn.

Hello guys i just played a very interesting game on dps in plat. How this game ended actually made me laugh when it ended because i just found it so funny. I am the Sojourn who is called "Skadelig". I was hoping you would check out the vod and tell me what i did wrong if you have the time.
I ended up with 39 kills while the other team highest was 26 and still lost for context.
I am a diamond tank and support player but i really cant seem to get the hang of dps and it really annoys me when i get games like these but still lose.

I have 2 replay codes for this because they are all equally as bad as each other. It happens every single time I play this game. I don’t know what I keep doing wrong. I get told I’m just getting unlucky with my teams, but that can’t be it. I wouldn’t lose every single game if that was the case.

Replay codes: W6BVKZ- D.va- Esperança A0ANSB- D.va- Lijiang Tower

My Battletag is SarahFoxG, and while I haven’t completed my placements yet, I’m predicted plat 4. (Even though I’ve lost all 5 placements so far)

I also play on console.

It honestly feels like I threw these games even though I was trying my best to keep up with everything. Should I have stuck with D.va? My positioning was probably extremely bad too. I shouldn’t have gotten booped several times in Lijiang Tower, that was stupid of me. Maybe I shouldn’t have been so aggressive on my attacks, and stayed with my supports a little bit more? I think I just want to focus on my positioning here. I definitely should’ve stayed closer to my team I think.

I feel like I’m so useless in this game all the time, no matter what I do. I can’t do anything right. Everything about my gameplay feels so bad. I don’t know what to do…

Title. My theory is that the teams field of view is larger the further back you are so you have more control of the map? Or maybe it's better because there's less of a chance to get sandwiched?

Just been noticing this recently compared to my plat 2 games where for example on circuit royale we'd hold the corner near cart, or the corner on route 66 instead of holding height on top of Cafe.

PC or console:I have wanted to better my skills and such in competitive for a while but despite trying to train and figure out skills on my own, im still stuck in bronze. :< Im a support main, any tips, tricks or any of the sorts would be greatly welcomed! here are the codes FT8X2N 7NMR7K 4BC334 please review any of all if youd like :> Battletag bunknown

So I just placed plat 1 and won my first game after placements then proceeded to go on a ten loss streak.

At this point I can only look at myself as the problem, but I struggle to identify exactly what I am doing wrong sometimes.

Have never had my gameplay reviewed before so would be interesting and helpful to have someone else with a bit more experience check it out and give me some pointers.

I have 3 replay codes.

I play hitscan dps (mostly soldier and tracer). YouCanDoIt in game.

Thanks :)

I'm bored and love coaching so if anyone is interested please DM me or leave a comment and I'll add you on discord and we can do it.

I peaked GM and currently sit in masters for dps and support. Don't care to play tank but peaked master for it in ow1 but would be down to give advice for it as well if you need.

I'd be down to vod review with you present, live coach one of your games, or give you some notes if you'd rather not be social.

This match went well and was a very close win, and I'd consider it to be one of my best/most fun games as Brigitte in a while whilst also being incredibly stressful. I have SoloQ'd Brigitte to this rank, which is my all-time peak. I'm having difficulty knowing if I'm improving or if I'm just being carried because I haven't consciously changed my gameplay as far as I'm aware.

The reason that I'm submitting this review is because I'd like feedback on my Brigitte gameplay, mostly my Rally usage (which in this particular match is terrible, so I need to know how to use Rally better in future!), and also on whether or not I'm timing my brawl engagements properly. Would also like to know from a 3rd-person PoV on if my Repair Pack usage is good or needs tweaks.

Greatly appreciate anybody that checks my replay out, I'm almost at Diamond 2 and would love to hit Masters for the first time. Thanks :)

I don’t know how to get better, no matter how hard I try, if I dps, heal bot, doesn’t matter I just can’t get out of silver. I tried playing different heroes (tbf I was hella tilted by then) same thing. I’m going nuts, 7 whole seasons and I’m only in silver. What am I doing wrong?

i recognize at the begining i left my team inorder to chase a kill that i didnt even finish. (lore accurite rein behavior if u ask me) but keep watching, there are some wild decisions that IDK if i could have made up for. am I too agressive?

This is my first real VOD review request.

Hello yall, Id like to request a VOD Review on JQ. Picked her up recently, watched some guides, and quite enjoy her. I have a 73% winrate on her currently, but the games where I cant just roll over them feel bad. I literally never played tank before JQ. Im talking 1.5k hours in the game and the highest playtime I had was on hog with 45 minutes. So be prepared for some "creative" plays Id say. This game I felt like I really didnt have much impact. I really struggle with the mirror matchup. Also, I know that my mechanics need work, so feel free to point that out, but what would interest me most is the omnius concept known as "creating space" I hear so much about in this sub. No clue if Im doing it or how I could be doing it better. Felt like my DPS were struggling, so Id also like tipps on how to enable them better.

Code: NWQVM5 Rank: Gold 1/Plat 5 Mode: push Map: esperanca Hero: JQ Tag: YapGod What Id like to be reviewed: General Tank mechanics, target priority, decision making, timing of engagement/disengagement, really everything you see.

If anyone finds the time, thanks a lot and cheers to yall!

I feel like venture is the only dps that I can actually play well with until the enemy team counterswaps or just targets me when I try to do anything. I typically swap to mei, reaper, or bastion when im struggling but that also just doesn’t work sometimes since I can’t play those heroes as well as venture.

I'm not new to the game, but I'm new to playing tank. Currently, I know how to play Sigma and Junker Queen, but I’m wondering which other tanks I should learn. What hero recommendations do you have?

A few other questions I have:

• Should I limit my hero pool and focus on learning how to play against counters, or is it better to have a wider range of options?
• Are there any general tips for improving as a tank player?
• For hero recommendations, do you have specific advice for playing them?

For context, I’m Gold 5 on tank and play on console. Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you.

some friends convinced me to get back into the game recently and i hopped into comp for the drive and got manhandled by Zarya in several of my placements. when i look at the tank roster, i don't really see an obvious answer. there's clearly options that are worse (my comfort pick D.Va for example, i got flamed for playing her in the matchup) but i feel like noone has an obvious favorable matchup. is this true? and either way does anyone have tips for how to play into her? for additional context i ended up placing gold 4 and i play on console
