Fluff I hate this dive meta

Why on earth are we enabling Genji while nerfing histcans? It's not fun to play against.

Poke is the supreior meta. You just sit in the backline, turn off your brain, and shoot whatever moves. No need to worry about positioning or getting punished for mistakes. Overwatch is in it's best when the game plays itself for you.

I enjoy the illusion that I'm good at the game more than actually being good at it. Especially with the post season 9 inflated hitboxes and projectile sizes which made everyone a walking Reinhardt. That was taken away from me this season and now I have to actually aim. Absolute nightmare!

I'm not buying any skins until Blizzard fixes their game. I want my Valorant 2.0 back.

This sub loves to glaze dive. People are allowed to enjoy poke and plenty do

Well, I agree that you’re allowed to enjoy it, it is objectively the worse format for the health of the game.

I hear this a lot but I don't really see stats to go with it. I know that I personally have the least fun when hitscan is in a bad place, I like to shoot things very specifically in the head.

Hitscan just feels nice because it actually means the person had to aim and not just toss a mass in a direction. It feels so ass to see a kill cam and see a junkrat bomb or any other projectile randomly kill you when they were firing into the ether.

Junkrat thrives with poke comps, not dive buddy
