@aaronkellerOW Hello Aaron, the #1 problem in Overwatch matchmaking is and will always be smurfing. Until something drastic is done about smurfing, ranked ladder has 0 competitive integrity.

@aaronkellerOW Cause I'm not gonna lie, I'm playing Overwatch since the closed beta of OW1, and it's the worst competitive experience I had on the game since launch because of that broken matchmaking

@AndresOlimon @OnepegMG @g0atMoth Yep. Exactly what I predicted about the system. Reviewing the killed POV is stupid especially with the broken netcode in EFT. The only way is CSGO Overwatch way. Review the suspects perspective.

Overwatch is fun, but man, when it sucks, it sucks. People be toxic for no reason other than to do it. I play Ana, and because I only got 1 nano om defense, I'm the problem, despite having 2 of our 3 kills. I'll take the comp ban. **** that.

I told myself I was gonna give overwatch 3 seasons to fix itself, first season I got one shot by a sojourn and was the most unfun meta, second season you still got onshot but by a pocketed mercy and a hog. They took way too long to nerf stuff. This season I get plats in my high

Why is it that people are confused when there is a gamebreaking bug in overwatch they literally delete the character to maintain the fun of playing the game while they fix the problem. So yes gamebreaking=ban. Stop acting like children ffs

@dvveet I’m super anti-Blizzard everything rn because of their legal issues so I always encourage people who ask to steer away from Overwatch for now.

@JuanArtxz I haven't had a problem with the 1660-S where I couldn't run a game or get lag. Every game that I run it always worked with no lag or anything. Games like: Call of Duty, Overwatch, Halo Infinite, CSGO, Red Dead and more big games on high/ultra graphics

@JusttheletterBS Not to say I wouldn't want further patches, but you're comparing apples to oranges here. Games like Overwatch are live service games and intended for competitive play. Smash is neither of these things. Frankly, we're lucky we got any balance patches at all.

Took some trial and error, and some lengthy breaks to angrily play Overwatch, but I managed to catch my Walking Wake and Iron Leaves. Used a Skeledirge for IL and supported an Iron Hands with Clodsire for WW.

@KobzELFN @YaBoiDeathwish 2 of the 4 ggames I showed were full priced games, with Overwatch also being full priced in the past but converted to free to play just to make more money this issue extends further than free mobile games and impacts the full priced triple A games too

YUP that was my last Overwatch game this season. what a ******* horrible game! game keeps on crashing (due to server issues?) while we’re winning! getting some random gold and plat on my Master lobby! @PlayOverwatch guess it’s time for me to finish Ori and the Blind Forest.

@aaronkellerOW Overwatch matchmaking is still a nightmare. I'm a GM support player and I've been getting diamond teammates while the enemy team has high GM/T500 players. This makes the game incredibly unbalanced and unfair. Can you actually fix this issue?
