@shinobody It’s a pretty constant issue I have with e sports. Especially for games I don’t understand. I can’t watch league or dota games at all because there’s just too much going on. Even Overwatch is hard to keep up with sometimes and I know that one pretty well.

Overwatch: I VALUE DOOMFIST ABOVE EVERYTHING, HE ISNT BROKEN. *previous game against him* *I tell other team to prepare for doomfist* *He tries using my 'mercy player' to be toxic* *He picks genji and doesn't do anything most of the game* *I get POTG as Zenyatta*

Problem with Overwatch is that it never joined the F2P genre. Overwatch 2 wouldn't be as big as Overwatch on release. Probably a dead franchise in a few years just next to Diablo

@Blizzard_Ent Hey, Blizzard. I've been around since the first Diablo. LOVE the games. I just wanted to bring up a problem I've had for the past week. When I open loot boxes on Overwatch the screen is just the background. I can't really see anything else other than if they're skins, sprays, etc

If you have a real, genuine personal issue with someone based on the hero they are playing in Overwatch, it's time for you to go outside.

@DOWSEYtv I feel like the largest issue for MMR is that there just isn't a large enough playerbase for it to function *** it should Overwatch and Warzone can have sbmm because their populations are much much larger and high tier play is more common

"just mute chat lol" that doesn't fix the fact that the majority of the playerbase is toxic. i literally had less toxicity in all of my overwatch games combined than i did for a handful of league games

A game where TEAM performance dictates your "competitive" rating - if someone is playing badly but REFUSES to change it up - you have every right to criticize them... but not in the nursery of Overwatch. Fix the system! Reward players for individual performance as well!

I just think it would be cool if WoW could get the Overwatch 2 treatment one day but I’m not sure how realistic of an idea that is or if it would even fix anything. Either way, it’s an interesting conversation to have, I think!

@its_jessiebee Yep! All 6 of those accounts are going to be de-ranked to 500 SR and then sold as smurf accounts 🙃 Overwatch has no issues whatsoever.

@Goddess_R6 I'm getting port network issues way more often then usual now. Lagging in the middle of reinforcing, battles, etc. Doesn't happen in Overwatch, Apex Legends, Risk of Rain, or any other game I can think of right now.

@RedexBB I've been openly gay/bi for as long as I've been playing overwatch and I've had zero issues with people idk about being a woman. what I've learned is that not many people with intially have a problem with you unless you give them a reason to
