Maybe you should take a break from OverWatch? Sounds like you're not having fun, which makes you play worse or get tilted easier.
I often take mini-breaks from OverWatch, then I play better and have more enjoyable games when I return.

I will continue emphasizing that this meta is the worst the game has ever had (goats was not consistently run by the majority of ranks) and that 2-2-2 was a not an amazing solution to fixing goats. Its just not fun to play this game right now with double shield.
This is a fantastic post and I want to emphasize how much i agree with your doom point. Hes an all or nothing character already, nerfing him wouldnt change the root problem

I know earlier I said I was going to take this season seriously, but after 12 hours all I can say is nah. For both tank and support I placed in the 2490s. So cool, just a win or two from plat then I can start my diamond grind. Well after 12 hours, I'm 23xx for tank and 22xx for support. It just went all downhill with sub 50% w/l. Every game is just a disaster lol.
Back to playing causally and messing around in arcade.

That's cause the counters for that rely on composition flexibility ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ but then you'd have another goats variation i guess
The fake 2-2-2 people often went for in quickplay the weeks before siggy dropped felt better than the actual 2-2-2 so shields are definitely looking like the problem.
Going back to the young liar post, it's like most damage picks were ride or die hitscan players leaving them in struggle city thanks to shields.
That they actually gave Ana the self nano gave me false hope they'd consider more changes, never gone back too much after moira dropped.

It's a shame, while it could never be a truly balanced mode, there were always some character tweaks that would make it more playable.

QP is so relaxing, because I don't have stress about loosing SR if we don't win and leavers are instantly replaced.
Another good thing is if I want to play tank I get games almost instantly. Like under 10 second queue times.
Thought I was the only one. Seems they try to push a hotfix for the Reaper/Sym tele placement bug, but I guess it only applied whenever you start a match?
That's why when you click an old unsaved Highlight, you'll get the "Client Request Disconnected" because Highlight usually get removed whenever a new patch is released. The replay did get removed though.

They may need to not hotfix it or remove all highlights and do a proper patch.
Also anyone watch replay and think it's slower than actual real-time game?

Probably want to take 2-2-2 balance as a whole, I'd expect a large balance patch hopefully soon.

The one change I'd like to see with Orisa is toning down the slow after halt, its way to punishing.
I find the best counter to Doomfist is Zarya. Must be good with flicking bubble.
IT'd be really cool if they did a Nevada/desert/area 51 map! That'd be my dream actually ❤️ Make it happen Blizz
The DPS in these games are just so...bad. Why are you playing Widow when you can't hit anything? Why are you playing Mei and Reaper when there is a Pharah that is a huge problem.
The healers have been on point and I generally don't have anything bad to say about them, but these DPS players. Holy shit.

Check out how Fitzyhere shuts him down. He's on twitch but he has Youtube vids dedicated to destroying Doomy.
McCree? Can't find the Doomfist. Mei? Can't find the Hamster. Just a shitshow all night. Losing brawls? Stick on Ashe and slow charge that ult so we can use it twice in the match if we're lucky.
despite how great she is right now I feel like I rarely see Sombra these days
which is funny considering how incredibly prevalent she was in qp way back before the stealth/translocator changes

I know for m'self - just now got a Zen potg for a triple holding down point B Paris Vs. Sigma and Orisa. Our tanks were a Ham and a D.Va.
Y'know that's true... I think it might be that Vs. Doom and Mei, she's kind of less survivable than they tend to be in the teamfight. Hack is strong but rocket punch is kinda' right now, problem solved.
Why what behavior have you seen from them? Generally I found kids especially more cooperative than stuck up adults that gets tilted when you tell them to switch up.
Yeah, it's very satisfying to watch Fitzy just destroy GM/top 500 Doomfists and force them to switch:
Watch and learn!
It's very obvious seeing DPS players who have never played Sombra switch to her to try and counter a Doomfist wrecking shop. They try to play her as a budget Tracer going on flanks and trying to hunt Doom instead of playing bodyguard to supports because peeling is a completely alien concept to them.
Of course, Sombra has always been the one hero who's had an abysmal win rate in ranks lower than GM and Master because she actually requires coordination to be effective.
Thanks for this - I am deffo one of those budget tracer sombras. 😬 So is the general idea , instead of going invis and being a backline harass, to stick with your main team/healers and just right click any doom/enemy that comes into sight?
Sorta.
For Doom specifically Fitzy will position himself out of sight, with a viewing angle on where he expects the Doom to slam into his team so he can immediately be hacked.
Fitzy's other big gambit is that no one will shoot you to interrupt the hack if you're falling towards them from above, so throw the trans straight up, look down and hack as you appear above the enemy.
...which works super, super good when you have a team that'll help and heal you when you use Trans to stay in the fight instead of to escape it. Not so easy at lower SR.
