forest lynx
#

Coulder is so uninteractive

#

Makes me hope Hog stays far away from Stadium

acoustic kiln
#

tracer is gonna be hell to deal with

ornate hedge
#

why am i getting rookie 5 dps as all star 2 support

livid marsh
#

Stadium doesn't have sr based matchmaking

forest lynx
#

Low cooldown Tracer I'm dreading already

#

You can build her for power and Cooldown and she'd shred anything with little interaction

#

We don't even have torb

ornate hedge
#

tracer weapon power is insane i tried it yesterday with the workshop trick

#

symmetra ability power is also really fun with it

#

her turrets shreaddd

#

this is the code if you’re wondering

#

J4X71

forest lynx
#

Especially with a high fire rate

#

Tracer genuinely shouldn't be in Stadium

ornate hedge
#

fire rate is def going to be a problem

ornate hedge
#

ap doesnt work on his turret

#

and i didnt see a difference with his ult

forest lynx
#

Another problem is Orisa the fucking WALL

#

Who thought giving her the ability to be an actual dozer was a good idea?

ornate hedge
#

honestly not a problem if you play as cringe as her

#

theres at least 1 build for every character to counter infinite self heal horse

forest lynx
#

Dawg the only way I can is AP go BRRRRR

ornate hedge
#

what character

forest lynx
#

JQ

ornate hedge
#

oh

forest lynx
#

YEAH

#

I can get my health to the thousands

#

Ain't gonna matter when there's a Mei and an Orisa bullying you all game

ornate hedge
#

yea thats a tough matchup

forest lynx
#

Worst is that I can't kill the Mercy flying in the air

#

So that leaves me with Soldier and Kiri

#

Literally the anti-queen team

ornate hedge
#

honestly the worst tank in stadium rn

#

battling with orisa for the spot

forest lynx
#

Not really no. That'd be Zarya if anything

ornate hedge
#

i think she can still be good

#

she's just too boring

acoustic kiln
lunar veldt
#

any plans to make rein playable in stadium?

novel crag
#

Do they plan on adding matchmaking in Stadium?

hallow fog
#

And then they wanna further split it into qp/ranked

clever imp
#

(For soldier, not dva)

fallow socket
#

clone is still good, honestly the extra 2.5s only helped if you had bad tps

paper snow
#

if she only does 6 that means 100% tracer will only do 12 dmg

#

firerate and mag builds will be more annoying on her forsure but I feel armor is the easy counter for her

#

since her pellets will feel like tissue paper

fallow socket
#

armor and crusader hydraulics

paper snow
#

yeah

#

then she will do a total of 2 dmg a shot

#

50% from armor and an extra 10% for hydraulics

#

wow thinking about it she's actuall gonna suck so much

#

there are so many early game items that make her guns useless

forest coral
paper snow
#

firerate and survival with ap to build bomb fast

forest coral
paper snow
#

yeah

#

but its stadium

#

everyone can buy it

#

so it doesnt matter

#

her bomb will be annoying tho

forest coral
#

so you're forcing multiple people to invest 4k / 8k and an item slot into dealing with you

paper snow
#

like ap bomb tracer who is unkillable

forest coral
#

instead of putting stuff into their actual builds

#

sounds like a good deal

forest lynx
#

That's terrible for the game

forest coral
#

esp since you can get wp power item that partially ignores armor

#

for just 9.5k

#

you're probably already building wp

forest lynx
#

Codebreaker shouldn't be the end all be all

paper snow
#

that negates 20% of dmg

forest coral
#

so add another 11k

#

into dealing with tracer

#

getting pretty expensive

paper snow
#

yeah

#

but that item is good

forest coral
#

pretty sure the rest of tracer's team just steam rolls you

#

at that point

paper snow
#

or you can buy bloodhound

#

to deal more and take less

#

there are options

forest lynx
#

Or Tracer could not have any access to the items that everyone else has

forest coral
#

bc wtf is ogundimu's reduction field gonna do against half the burst damage in this game

paper snow
#

then buy divine intervention

forest lynx
#

Heck I'd take a redo of all the items so they're character specific only

paper snow
#

or buy martian mender

forest coral
paper snow
#

there are items that counter burst

forest coral
#

why do you keep recommending survival items

paper snow
forest coral
#

like are you sdaying people should be buying 3-4 survival items

#

just to deal with that shit

paper snow
#

and can win you matches

forest coral
paper snow
#

especially on dps

#

or support

#

unkillable zen

forest coral
paper snow
#

I mean how do you think tracer will be unkillable

#

with survival items

#

wow

forest coral
#

outside of super niche situations like playing dva against 2+ beams

paper snow
#

big suprise

forest lynx
#

Genuinely would rather have the 110% AP for my builds

forest coral
#

exactly

paper snow
#

divine intervention is so good for dealing with chunk

#

you realize

#

divine intervention

forest coral
#

i used to pick ogundimu's reduction field for situations like playing dva against zarya

#

but then i realized

paper snow
#

is percentile

#

so the higher dmg you build

#

the less I take

forest coral
#

i would rather just massacre the entirel obby

paper snow
#

right

forest coral
#

than try to tank trade a zarya by taking a little bit less damage

paper snow
fallow socket
forest coral
#

genuinely like

#

that item i cannot tell if it is actually doing work when i get it

paper snow
#

you are simple man

#

with simple taste

#

and I can repsect that

#

but survival

#

is lowkeyt

#

goated

#

I can just eat reaper ult

forest lynx
#

Survival is only good early game at best

paper snow
#

and like survive so much

#

dva bomb

#

nope

forest coral
#

do i know if the lifesteal from phantasmic is actually being helpful do i know if im actually getting overhealth on my engages

paper snow
#

junk tire

forest coral
#

no clue

paper snow
#

yummy

forest coral
#

still getting that shit round 2 ever single game as genji

#

and round 3 ever single game as dva

paper snow
#

do you realize lifesteal with reductions makes it more op

forest coral
#

no i feel like lifesteal with more damage makes it more op

#

since you're like

#

doing more damage to lifesteal

paper snow
#

building more reductions means you heal faster

#

and take less trades

forest coral
#

okay counterpoint

paper snow
#

ok

#

stats dont matter

#

in OW

#

really think I care

forest coral
#

90% winrate doesnt matter ur right

paper snow
#

the reason you win

forest coral
#

keep getting a 40% winrate getting survival items

paper snow
#

is because no one knows how to build reductions

#

I bet you

#

I can counter your builds

forest coral
#

awesome

paper snow
#

in a custom game

#

if the meta shifted

#

and one day everyone built survival

#

your winrate would plummet

forest coral
#

how they're gonna be doing 0 damage in return

paper snow
#

Im not asking you to build zero dmg

#

I asking one or two items

#

build dmg early

#

build survival late

#

clearly you dont have a brain

#

so I have to dumb it down for you

forest coral
#

okay so what's going to happen to the orisa that built 5 survival items when i kill her supports in the first 5 seconds of the fight

paper snow
#

I never said 5

#

if everyone in that lobby

#

bought one survival item

#

of teir three

#

they would stomp you

#

and you would complain

#

that they are so hard to kill

#

divine intervention

#

literally negates 20% of you dmg

forest coral
#

i am a non dva player otping dva and going like 23 wins 2 losses in my past 25 games

#

building no survival but phantasmic and gloomgauntlet

paper snow
#

hey buddy

forest coral
#

same story as genji

paper snow
#

that is survival

forest coral
#

yes those are good items

paper snow
#

you cant say i dont build survival

forest coral
#

first 2 purples i get every single dva game

paper snow
#

life steal is survival

#

doesnt count

#

your arguement is invalid

#

so youre a liar

forest coral
#

every other survival item is just not good to build into

paper snow
#

they are

#

you just dont know how

#

overdrive core

#

give 10% weapon pwr

forest coral
#

no its bc when i did build survival as dva i had an abysmal winrate

#

like a sub 30% wr

paper snow
#

and prevents one oneshot per life

ornate hedge
#

erm actually

forest coral
#

then i stopped building any survival besides gloomgauntlet phantasmic

ornate hedge
#

the thing that makes u take 15% dmg over times is goated with gloom gauntlet

paper snow
#

Im not telling you to dump survival

forest coral
#

and had an above 90% winrate

ornate hedge
#

so survival IS worth building into

paper snow
#

Im saying know what items do whaty

ornate hedge
#

i had a 92 building 6 survival and stalling point for ages on dva

#

post baby dva nerf too

ornate hedge
paper snow
#

so you heal what you lost

forest coral
#

would it be better with gloom gauntlet than phantasmic flux

ornate hedge
#

why remove either one

#

keep all

#

infact go 6 survivals

forest coral
#

maybe the moral of the story is just that dva is busted

ornate hedge
#

it works

paper snow
#

thats the real moral of the story

#

divine with conduit is also busted for supports players

forest coral
paper snow
#

and reduction with life steal is based as well

paper snow
#

you have small brain

#

you build survival

forest coral
#

i cannot see the overdrive core whatever the fuck being good on any hero but like mercy in rez valk builds

paper snow
#

you just act like youre above it

paper snow
#

10% weapon dmg

#

and you get a free death every respawn

ornate hedge
#

overdrive core is kinda trash ngl

forest coral
# paper snow you build survival

i think there's a diff between picking up super offensively oriented 'survival' items and building reduction field and divine intervention personally

ornate hedge
#

its like that mei thing that u get auto cryo

paper snow
paper snow
#

they help you live

ornate hedge
#

its only 10 wp

forest coral
paper snow
#

my point was about tracer being easy to counter

forest coral
#

also like

paper snow
#

armor is 4k

forest coral
#

wtf do i do if i win a fight

paper snow
#

and even if she adapts

#

I can always buy one item to counter her

paper snow
#

but most ppl get one tapped

#

and complain

#

the point of survival

ornate hedge
#

lets be real all tracers will just build into survival and maybe a little wp

paper snow
#

is to have a fighting chance

ornate hedge
#

thats her only real downside

#

the hp

forest coral
# paper snow armor is 4k

and im saying if one genji spends his slots on armor and ogundimu and the other is spending his on mark of kitsune and wp the first one is NOT going to be carrying his team

paper snow
paper snow
#

that's dumb

#

he can be healed

#

and help with the team fight

#

instead of dying to kiri or cass

ornate hedge
#

survival is also just broken on tanks or supports that can draw out games from 1v5 till their team arrives

forest coral
#

by doign an insignificant amount of damage

ornate hedge
#

none of the dps rn can do that

forest coral
#

while the other genji instakilled one of the supports

ornate hedge
#

maybe mei reaper

paper snow
forest coral
#

that is no longer healing the first genji

paper snow
#

I have a survival healer 76 build

ornate hedge
#

that stupid running biotic build is so bad

#

ur throwing if u go it

forest coral
#

i feel like i get enough survival on genji

paper snow
#

get out of here you child

forest coral
#

with the lifesteal melee power and 1500 quick melee heal item

paper snow
#

speak when you have a brain

forest coral
#

then phantasmic

ornate hedge
#

hey stop we're all inclined to talking i like reading everyones opinions

forest coral
#

that's generally all the survival needed for 90% of the game

paper snow
#

but you still get one tapped by cass

forest coral
#

??

paper snow
#

divine prevents that

#

if you are both glass cannons

forest coral
#

let me get back to you next time i get one tapped by a cass

#

dont think ive seen that happen in 2 weeks

ornate hedge
#

i dont think divine can stop 1 shots

paper snow
#

obviously the cannon with a hit scan will always win

ornate hedge
#

and cass players in stadium cant aim lol

paper snow
#

just simple

forest coral
#

can tell you about all the casses ive one shot with my non divine intervention genji build

ornate hedge
#

they just shoot tank and flop their ult

paper snow
paper snow
#

idc

#

your opinions are invalid

forest coral
#

is a plat player just malding at me bc i think his idea of building 4 survival items on dps is stupid

paper snow
#

literally all Im saying is build survival if you are having a hard time

paper snow
#

I said 1 max

#

2 if needed

ornate hedge
#

ok wait 4 survival on a dps is not good

paper snow
#

like waht

ornate hedge
#

ah

paper snow
ornate hedge
#

well you should have 1-2 on anyone anyways

paper snow
#

hes just ragebaitng

ornate hedge
#

so whats the issue here

paper snow
#

idk

#

hes trying to be annoying

#

I said buy one item to counter tracer

#

he said haha funny number go brr

ornate hedge
#

it doesnt even have to be survival tab anything that gives lifesteal or things like lumerico count

forest coral
paper snow
#

then proceeds to rant about survival like its asss

forest coral
#

can kinda get shit on by cybervenom

ornate hedge
paper snow
#

then tell me about the two items he runs in sruvival

ornate hedge
#

and i just solo ult any of the ones i see in my games

forest coral
#

but i feel like it's one of the strongest round 7 builds

ornate hedge
#

dont try that stuff near me

#

i fell thats when its the weakest

#

everyones already overtuned and you're just some random running man

paper snow
#

I do healer 76

forest coral
#

nah i feel like the big ass 100% ap heal/damage field with cybervenom liquid nitrogen can actually be kinda disgusting

paper snow
#

more effective

forest coral
#

as long as ur playing with ur core

paper snow
#

frontliners and back off with hunker down

ornate hedge
#

yeah if you have to pay that much attention i feel its not worth it

forest coral
#

hunker down is goated

paper snow
#

so much dmg so much healing

fallow socket
#

does the field apply cyber and nitrogen?? i never tried it bcs it doesnt say ability damage it just says matches heal field healing

forest coral
#

gives it actual kill threat

ornate hedge
#

also i think hunker is kinda bad

forest coral
#

i used to do the one that gave people overhealth whenever you used bio field

ornate hedge
#

ttt and motk with double helix and 1 shotting people by round 3 is too good

paper snow
#

hunker down with back off is so good

forest coral
#

then they buffed it to 50% reduced duration instead of 70% reduced duration

paper snow
#

and it stacks with frontliners

forest coral
#

and realized it gen does insane dps

ornate hedge
paper snow
#

essentially the floor is lava

ornate hedge
#

then again i think dps is boring

paper snow
#

and you cant die

#

nor can your team

ornate hedge
#

just 1 tricked tank killer mei to legend

paper snow
#

its so nice

ornate hedge
#

ill have to try alot of these

paper snow
#

I one tricked healer 76 tank killer until reaching all star last season

paper snow
#

so by 30% you have a good rocket great healing and decent dmg

#

I just go to 15% weapon pwr since on soldier any higher kinda feels meh or just requires way too much investment

paper snow
#

obviously focus on stats

#

but never diss having one or two survival items at a given time

#

since they can just be useful

forest coral
#

i mean yeah i think phantasmic flux is the best item in the game

#

for basically every non support hero

ornate hedge
#

its up there

#

but best is a stretch

forest coral
#

maybe not the number 1 best for every hero

#

but in general i think it's the best item

paper snow
#

that shit is gas

ornate hedge
#

yea most versatile for sure

ornate hedge
paper snow
#

that shit is so good

ornate hedge
#

i held point for 12 minutes on dva remeched 9 times

paper snow
#

especially if your support dont heal alot

forest coral
#

just feel like almost every single non support hero can get phantasmic flux as their first purple and not have it be a mistake

ornate hedge
#

6 survival items

paper snow
ornate hedge
forest coral
ornate hedge
#

when meka punch was doing crazy damage and her melee didnt scale on wp

forest coral
#

meka punch nerf 💔

paper snow
#

nah

#

the new mecha punch is gas

ornate hedge
forest coral
#

i mean i agree

paper snow
#

I think its way better now

ornate hedge
paper snow
#

since you can scale its dmg

forest coral
#

im always going to miss old meka punch

ornate hedge
#

they never expect you to tank their 4 solo ults as her

forest coral
#

but i still get it first every single dva game

ornate hedge
#

and stand in your face

paper snow
#

dva smacking you with the blaster and healin is so funny

ornate hedge
#

bam remech kills em

forest coral
#

new meka punch can abuse the 1500 melee heal item so much round 1

paper snow
#

also

ornate hedge
#

i havent played tank much since i found out it scales on wp

paper snow
#

dont sleep on them rockets

ornate hedge
#

been farming support

paper snow
#

them things are fun

ornate hedge
#

got to all star 2 today

#

ill play her later or maybe rn

#

and go wp

paper snow
#

especially early game

ornate hedge
paper snow
#

matrix item

ornate hedge
#

usually remove it 5-6

forest coral
paper snow
#

with firerate

ornate hedge
#

even after boosters

#

it shot like mauga miniguns

#

i think thats why it got removed to be fixed

paper snow
ornate hedge
paper snow
#

did you know there was a glitch to equip all 4 perks in the base game

ornate hedge
#

i saw

paper snow
#

the patched it immediately

forest coral
#

i really hated new meka punch until i went to practice range and was like wait this shit scales with wp attack speed now

#

maybe it isnt so bad

paper snow
#

it also feels a lot stronger

forest coral
#

also getting booster reset even if u dont land a melee in boosters

paper snow
#

since you are more likely to get those kills early

forest coral
#

is kinda niche but it def feels nice

paper snow
#

I think WInton

#

will be annoying

forest coral
#

meka punch was lowkey my fav power in the game so when i first saw the rework i was malding

ornate hedge
#

ima q a tank match rq i have to try dva

paper snow
#

tracer wont be bad but winton and brig might be

ornate hedge
#

isnt it winston pharah brig first

forest coral
#

i think if they give brig 2 whip shots

ornate hedge
#

then tracer mid patch

forest coral
#

the mode is cooked

#

double boop lucio is already lowkey a top 3 most annoying power in the game

ornate hedge
#

remove lucio entirely

forest coral
#

lowkey might just be one of the best powers in the game in general

ornate hedge
#

the thing that makes him do more damage if u get booped into a wall is so annoying

#

same for zenn kick

forest coral
ornate hedge
#

yes it all scales on ap now

#

with the power

#

he's still bad healing

#

but not much of a throw

forest coral
#

i forgot is amp it up a set healing per second or is it a multiplier on his base healing per second

#

did the crossfade healing buff give him 25% more amped healing too

ornate hedge
#

idk anything abt stats on him

forest coral
#

i think that was one of my only genji losses

#

this season

#

genuinely it got to the point where so much was happening in the last round my game was lagging

#

so i fucked up game deciding blades

#

lowkey i think prepatch my top 3 most annoying powers were like

#

shadow clone mini bob double boop

ornate hedge
#

hold on in a game

forest coral
#

trying to decide if i fw martian mender

#

it's just like idk what i'd replace it with

#

since i already run phantasmic flux gloomgauntlet

ornate hedge
#

remove orisa from the game

ornate hedge
#

its just a stat pad

forest coral
#

have seen those builds where orisa just javelin spams

ornate hedge
#

thats what this one is doing

forest coral
#

with the javelin spins tosses a javelin power

ornate hedge
#

i use all my dm for that then their dps sprayed me

forest coral
#

most of the time i just use dm to cover my whole disengage

#

feel like if i focus it anywhere else my team will just crumble before anything gets done may as well do it myself

forest coral
#

every single time i had blade he had beat

#

and every time i dashed on him to try to confirm a kill he'd have boops or overhealth or amp it was just so damn annoying

#

if i was playing better mechanically that game i probably do deal with it though

#

lowkey if i could make one decision for this mode besides removing junk i would just kill off every single power that gives a second charge of an ability

fallow socket
#

i dont think its very good lol

forest coral
#

i mean i'm pretty damn sure that one was good

#

but i liked that it had the drawback that she gets less cd reduction on swing hits

#

i dont know why every double ability power doesnt have smth like that

#

i cant think of a single double ability power that isnt elite

#

micro missiles is prob the weakest and i still pick that shit every game

ornate hedge
#

lucio orisa

#

idk how im going to win this one

forest coral
#

i think lucio is genuinely dva's only counter in this mode

#

esp if he goes double boop

ornate hedge
#

my juno is going rey's broken build

#

the dive one

forest coral
#

usually if there's a lucio i try to go mark of kitsune + liquid nitrogen early

ornate hedge
#

if she has a brain unlike the juno i had earlier she could carry

forest coral
#

and just make it my #1 priority to kill him off asap

#

idk i just always went double axe queen as second power back before i became a dva otp

fallow socket
forest coral
#

but i also used to pick soaring stone bc i thought it was fun so

fallow socket
#

like why did u pick exhaust and tommygun then

forest coral
ornate hedge
#

yea

fallow socket
#

yes

ornate hedge
#

reymecury

#

bro i cant do shit

#

this orisa is so weird

#

like actually

#

she has so much cd red and is only round 2

#

spear after spear

#

then lucio boop

#

then ashe coach gun

#

the juno cant even use the broken build

#

got rid of the whole reason its good

#

removed every survival item

forest coral
ornate hedge
#

motk ttt and taking advantage of the fact stinger does ap dmg

#

so u can proc cyber venom with her gun

forest coral
#

oh my god she can proc cybervenom and liquid nitrogen

#

that genuinely sounds hellish to play against

ornate hedge
#

no need for liq nitrogen

#

they cant run anyways

#

if u land 3 of the 12 shots she shoots in 1 burst they almost insta die

#

if u time it right u can speed blitz a mei/reaper

#

torpedo and land ur shots the second the torp lands

#

0 reaction time

forest coral
#

so do u run double missiles power

#

or the hyper ring overhealth stuff for extra survivability or what

#

damn i'd love to try this build some time but i think in my past 50 flex queue games i've gotten support once

acoustic kiln
#

now that i hit pro

fallow socket
#

so u can stay in their backline longer

acoustic kiln
#

its time to ruin my elo by trying to make AP mercy work

forest coral
#

yeah bc i feel like that shi'ts kinda busted to enable aggro style

acoustic kiln
fallow socket
#

missiles are good but only for the burst with ur gun, u dont rlly need 2 charges that just means ur spending more time aiming torps rather than shooting ppl

verbal lake
forest coral
#

do u ever go for the black hole slow

acoustic kiln
ornate hedge

dont find it fun

# ornate hedge true

It was the first power I tired when stadium launched. I thought it’d be so fun cause it turns mercy’s most fun utility (her movement), into a healing option. Then I found out that the healing was pitiful at best

#

Sad cause with increased staff range + quicker GA + shorter cooldown, it could’ve cooked

ornate hedge
#

i think its the best option for mercy otp's when its a full dive comp

#

reaper genji queen

#

so u dont have to risk ur life

#

and u can just ga then cancel with a jump

#

and heal

acoustic kiln
#

turns out

#

attack speed does increase how fast symmetra's beam ramps up

#

so unless they change that on release she can almost instantly get level 3

ornate hedge
#

3rd game in a row with an orisa managed to win this one im so done playing tank rn

ornate hedge
#

i love solo shattering mei

#

❤️

novel crag
exotic pilot
#

can they nerf zen survival build

#

its highkey making me tweak unironically the strongest build in the game

acoustic kiln
#

the devs are toying with me

#

they give me satan's most incompetent demons as teammates for like 10 matches in a row

#

then they give me 2 legendary skins from a normal lootbox

#

does this game hate me or love me just PICK ONEEEEE

tired verge
#

the juno build gotta go man 💔

hearty lodge

is anyone else seeing a rise of hackers in stadium?

i usually get stinger 3rd round instead of hyper healer

#

by round 5 you're a problem for the whole enemy team

#

picking people off one by one

#

they cant do anything

proven knot
#

got it. I’m just getting the build for a friend

ornate hedge
#

alr

proven knot
#

that one build that lets juno spam anti heals on primary right?

ornate hedge
#

yea

proven knot
#

does it have a real purpose outside of that

ornate hedge
#

ttt

proven knot
#

my friend mostly plays with me and i almost always get anti heals on dva

ornate hedge
#

three tap tummy gun that makes your gun scale off ap

proven knot
#

oh ya that ones good

ornate hedge
#

well the extra damage u get after using an ability

#

scales off ap

proven knot

oh three tap doesnt

#

its damage is set

#

mark of the kitsune tho scales

ornate hedge

idk the difference mb

its one of them tho

#

@hearty lodge Friend has a few questions. Why blink boots first?

ornate hedge
#

I think it’s so you can get MOTK working early

#

since double torpedo isn’t that good anymore?m

proven knot
#

i trust his judgement

proven knot
ornate hedge
#

the guns just do so much u dont need the torps

#

Essentially wasting time charging them

Honestly torpedoes do kinda suck

#

Anyone want a new missile build for Dva? Remade it for this season

ornate hedge
#

i could use it

proven knot
#

sure. I got a code for it but the build has no flex items

ornate hedge
#

bet

proven knot
# ornate hedge bet

VD0V5. I forget what I chose for the last power but honestly it kind of doesn’t matter and you can flex it

#

the key here really is just going all in on AP stuff and relying on facetanking as your only sustain

ornate hedge
#

alright

#

ima finish this support game then try it

proven knot
#

three tap tommygun & mark of the kitsune are really good here for making the missiles deadly even at range (tho you’ll probly never kill anything like this)

ornate hedge
#

i love diving into peoples faces anyways

#

ill never be at range

proven knot
#

ya you should

#

its good there too

#

sometimes you do poke a bit for ult charge tho

ornate hedge
#

Understood

#

yay sigma mei

#

amazing

proven knot
#

should be able to force ice block on mei easily

ornate hedge
#

ive beat that before but its so draining

proven knot
#

ok thats fair

#

sigma is annoying

ornate hedge
#

sigma players cant hit anyone but the tank with ball

#

if a mercy was standing still rezzing they still miss

proven knot
ornate hedge
#

not at all

#

my team is trolling too arguing abt being liberal or something

proven knot
#

anyways you can avoid it with dva boosters in theory (fly straight up) but honestly its probly better to just accept ur gonna get hit by it

ornate hedge
#

doesnt help its mercy zen and the mercy is pocketing her boyfriend cass

acoustic kiln
#

yuck

ornate hedge
#

its really bad

ornate hedge
#

the build is really fun

#

just beat a mirror dva

forest coral
#

easily the most broken build that's ever hit stadium

#

and the most corny

ornate hedge
#

even more than ball build moira

forest coral
#

if i run into the juno build again lowkey prob just not gonna play stadium until it's dealt with

ornate hedge
#

just hard focus her

forest coral
#

tried that

#

it gives teh rest of her team so much damn space

#

and she gets so much sustain you need elite mechanical consistency

ornate hedge
#

the new anti air thing works well

#

even moira can kill her

#

if u play safe

forest coral
#

@proven knot would u say that dva's worst supp line matchup in this game is lucio zen

#

bc it genuinely feels oppressive for the melee build

#

honestly dropping gloomgauntlet for the first time ever bc of it

proven knot
#

Some changes I made

ornate hedge
#

the missile build might be better then melee

proven knot
#

No sustain items at all and I’m running the item that slows with ability damage

ornate hedge
#

or mixing both

proven knot
#
  • mark of the kitsune and three tap tommygun
#

It makes missiles super deadly even at range

proven knot
forest coral
#

and gradually go more and more into ap

#

but this time im just full out committing to ap

#

i feel like trying to hard commit onto this backline cant work

#

esp with mei rein

proven knot
#

yeah it just doesnt

#

like lucio stops engages so hard

#

so imo dont even bother with meka punch

#

i think your choices are either some sort of ranged weapon power build with fusion driver

forest coral
#

double boop + snap kick + discord + mei and rein ignoring matrix

#

is so eww

proven knot
#

or all in on missile build

#

youll have to get creative getting around rein shield

#

but you should be able to kill lucio for booping you back

forest coral
#

honestly it was fun

#

bc i had to learn a new playstyle mid game

#

instead of running down individual targets with burst and snowballing i had to play off angles to break their bunker

proven knot
#

feels bad :/

forest coral
#

since rein was running the fuck ass shield hp build

proven knot
#

i hate shooting the tank

forest coral
#

i mean if he's just going to sit main and hold shield all game

#

im going to walk onto some flank and make him look at me

#

and if anyone steps even an inch over bounds to force me out

#

legendary loadout + mark of kitsune + liquid nitrogen gg

#

lowkey that's one of those games where one of the roudns crushes you so damn hard it feels genuinely unwinnable then you slowly start to consider things like

#

okay if i make any mistakes whatsoever with my dive i get booped and discorded and matrix wont save me bc a sped up mei and rein will walk on me

#

half the time zen is playing on a sightline where i take too much damage just trying to stage and any places i dont take damage take way too long to get to and my team gets run down

#

so what if i just like

#

soft engage ..

#

which means i have singlehandedly solved brawl comps

forest coral
#

like she has super duper strong missiles and that's just acherry on top it's not even like a notable part of the build

proven knot
#

is it that one that was posted earlier

#

also i think im gonna hit allstar tonight. missile build is kinda insane

#

i think it loses to orisa but other than that i think its a good matchup into every other tank

forest coral
proven knot
#

?

forest coral
#

yeah that god awful build

proven knot
#

lol

#

my friend just started running

#

he called juno mid before

#

now hes calling her broken and s tier

#

I’m liking it. I can finally stop choosing anti heals on Dva

#

honestly 3 tap tommygun and mark of the kitsune is a pretty insane combo

#

You guys think this tier list is accurate? I do disagree with Dvas spot tho

neon galleon
#

I feel like Zarya is kinda too high since she doesn’t exactly have too much utility aside from damage

#

I would probably put Moira higher up in B since those orbs can be so fucking annoying with spreading cyber venom and nitrogen-

#

I would probably swap Orisa, JQ, and Sigma around with each other? All things considered Orisa can have a somewhat easy time denying their value if she uses her cooldowns right since the only thing attack that isn’t an ult between the 2 that spin can’t block is the rock and honestly Orisa can have an easy time just….ignoring Rampage-

ornate hedge
#

zarya too high

#

jq too high

#

cass too high

#

moira too low

#

dva too low

#

ashe maybe back 2

#

mercy maybe up 1

proven knot
#

idk where I’d place Ana. Feel like she’s good but literally only with Dva so

neon galleon

i think reaper is the most like his normal overwatch

ornate hedge

not much craziness

proven knot

and dva solves both issues

#

Idk how to feel about Reaper

#

i see too many Reapers just do absolutely nothing

#

but then some are a terror

ornate hedge
#

exactly

#

too hit or miss

#

i think he deserves that spot

neon galleon
# proven knot Idk how to feel about Reaper

This is coming from my experience playing Reaper in the mode, he CAN become a nightmare to fight and he DOES have some ways to fight back against his counters in the mode, but his dive potential can take a beating once the enemy catches on to who you’re going after first. However there is still some consistency to his performance I find which is why I think mid B is better for him. Would probably swap him with Mei honestly cause to get reasonable damage on her you HAVE to focus on secondary fire which leaves her utility lacking and to make her utility worthwhile you are losing out on a fair bit of damage

proven knot
#

oh ya almost forgot

#

genji is good

#

def not c tier

neon galleon
#

Yeah I would probably put Genji high A, but I also suck at Genji so I’m not the best to describe him in Stadium-

proven knot
#

hes just the best flanker imo

ornate hedge
#

i feel like genji can enable people who are usually bad at him to be good at him

proven knot
#

idk i also see a lot of bad genjis

#

but i dont think hes like reaper

neon galleon
proven knot
#

everytime i see a bad genji its p clear there’s a lot they could be doing better

#

and then reaper just sometimes it seems like he can’t do anything at all

ornate hedge
#

esp vs mercy juno

neon galleon
#

In a way kinda like Spy from TF2, if you try to dive as Reaper while there isn’t any action going on, you are GOING to get your ass kicked, but if you go in while the enemy is distracted by the rest of your team, then is the time to make a play. Genji on the other hand simply…has more options to get in, get the kill, and then GTFO even when the enemy team aren’t really engaged yet.

proven knot
#

oh and lastly i would put Dva in S tier but i get thats a hot take

#

some bias there probly

ornate hedge
#

i'd make a new tier for d.va 3 higher than s

neon galleon
#

My thing on Reaper definitely has some bias to it but I’d still say he is at least B tier worthy due to my experience with him. definitely more worth it than Mei. Unless it’s against Orisa. For some reason random Orisas on my team have problems with Mei-

proven knot
#

a lot of people call dva bad in stadium

#

and i did pretty well with her on pc and console last season

#

and this season

#

but also like im pretty good but i rly dont feel like im carrying a bad character

hallow fog

whats with the matchmaking

#

you play support?

#

sup queues are long cuz of everyone wanting to play sup

not cuz blizzard messed anything up

queue tank or dps and its instant

#

so blame the mercy and moira otps

proven knot
#

emongg?

#

idk

forest coral
#

i agree with jq placement post nerf

#

but there's no way dva isnt the best tank right

#

there's also no way genji isnt s

ornate hedge
#

genji isnt worth s

#

hes not broken

forest coral
#

maybe there just havent been good cass players in my lobbies for whatever reason

#

but i feel like i do not see that hero do anything often

#

in the past few weeks every time i've seen a dps dominate a lobby it's been genji freja or ashe

ornate hedge
#

alot of them need to be changed

forest coral
#

i feel like soldier is b

#

lowkey

#

they removed the sprint biotic field power bug and i think the viability of that build lowkey relied on that

#

and most of his other standards builds are like

#

yea hthey were good early on but i feel like soldier is just an easy target nowadays

#

my dps elo is normaally high diamond low master and my winrate's been really good so theoretically i should be running into the really good dps

#

but i feel like i havent run into a single one of the really dominant casses that i've seen in ranked

#

the casses i do see usually just get devoured by my genji or dva builds

#

also i feel like genji just does not have many bad matchups at all

hallow fog
forest coral
#

zarya matchup can be annoying i feel like i've run into a dva as genji like once in the past month so i dont know how much she shits on genji

ornate hedge
proven knot
#

but

#

ppl just keep fking losing on dva

forest coral
#

maybe juno is a struggle but i also feel like genji is one of the only characters that could potentially contest the evil ass juno build

forest coral
#

you either get it or you dont

#

no build is going to carry you even if ur just kinda throwing shit at the wall

forest coral
#

while other tanks it's like

#

half the rein powers will just play the game for you

#

but dva is extremely voltale in either that player is useless or that player is singlehandedly annihilating your team

#

with a hero that already has a very low pickrate

forest coral
#

sometimes makes it really hard to play neutral, can punish a bad engage harder than most other heroes, can break your build by just bubbling the person ur trying to duel

#

i feel like bubble is the only thing that can somewhat consistently ruin my genji engage

#

sometimes need to get a whole ass item to make the mu feel okay

#

also is kiri really s tier

#

i feel like the only time where kiri has actually felt dominant or oppressive as a character

#

has been when the 5 second clone shit was everywhere

#

i feel like that power is lowkey ass now

#

but maybe my 2 heroes just have a really good MU into kiri

proven knot
#

dva nvmd

forest coral
#

i havent lost to a zar as dva in ages that matchup is free

proven knot
#

its so easy

#

i legit autopilot

forest coral
#

rein can pin to you and hit you around cover orisa can spin over to you and spam cc you queen can dash over to you cc you hit through matrix

#

against zarya you just need to track a few bubbles and play ur cover

proven knot
#

i barely even track bubbles

#

maybe early rounds

#

later rounds im just shooting

forest coral
#

my 2 losses this season were to queen and rein

#

but rein doesnt count he had that bum ass juno build on his team

proven knot
#

idk i barely even count my losses

#

sometimes people just want to lose

fast rivet
#

over 20 minute queue for stadium support????????????????????????

neon galleon
# forest coral also is kiri really s tier

Probably a lot to do with clone trauma but she does have stuff like healing making allies attack faster, Kitsune Rush making enemies slower when you trigger it, Kitsune Rush healing, Kiriko has a lot of stuff that can make her a problem

#

how exactly does weapon/ap lifesteal scale with reaper?

neon galleon
tepid finch
#

death step build

neon galleon
#

….he has like….35% lifesteal naturally, and one of his powers make it become doubled once you teleport in for a bit, why would you need more AP lifesteal??

#

Especially on a build that literally just gets you killed for most of the early rounds

#

No amount of lifesteal is saving your ass in those early rounds

tepid finch
#

ap lifesteal is actually the only viable way to build that setup

#

it makes a noticable difference in the earlier rounds

#

before the update u could only get like 20%, now u can get 40%

neon galleon
#

Again, in the early rounds you are dead when you use it, bottom line. There is no amount of lifesteal saving your ass in those early rounds when you got shit like Firestrike and Carnage that can just rip you to pieces, or the multiple characters that can stun you out of it or overall just stop you from getting value off of it

tepid finch
#

no worries, I pick it at round 3

neon galleon
#

Reaper is one of those characters that can take a fair bit of rounds to properly scale up, and needs specific items and playstyles to maximize his early game gains so that his late game can become as monstrous as possible. The last thing you should really be doing is going a build that makes you a sitting duck all because you use one of your abilities

tepid finch
#

I just play strangle step tank build to get money early

#

still wanna know what the numerical increases are in connection to his base lifesteal

neon galleon
#

Again he naturally has like 35% lifesteal and strangle step gives him doubled that, I find getting more lifesteal isn’t exactly a priority on him

tepid finch
#

yeah well guess u haven't played that build enough

neon galleon
#

Besides I doubt they fully stack since the nerf only mentions his base lifesteal

proven knot
#

but hey at least they didn’t shoot her bubbles and give her charge right?

# proven knot anyone got a reaper and freja build for stadium

I don’t really got a solid Reaper build in place, I mainly grab whatever I feel like grabbing along with making sure I grab Vanadium Injection, usually at around round 3 cause I’ve notice your ult drops fast past round 1 if you aren’t building for it. Powers though I have a pretty set in stone 4 being Spirited to Slay, Wraith Renewal, Harvest Fest, and Shrouded Shrapnel. Spirited to Slay and Wraith Renewal are always grabbed while Harvest Fest and Shrouded Shrapnel can be changed or swapped if needed

she's hard, i like movement characters but she doesn't keep momentum well like doomfist or wrecking ball sadly

proven knot

Yeah she’s less of a dive tank than they are

#

Their roles are a bit different

hearty lodge
#

but she has better burst dmg

#

she antiairs which in stadium is very well appreciated

proven knot
#

consistent ya

hearty lodge
#

and can counter my Juno build

proven knot
#

doom can one shot with charge tho

#

oh ya

#

how is that anti air perk

#

i never choosevit

hearty lodge
#

it's weirdly inconsistent

#

it's not bad

#

it's actually really good

#

but it's a bait item

proven knot
#

I have no idea what I would drop for it

#

I need 3 tap tommy gun and mark of the kitsune

hearty lodge
#

i like it cause it makes the Juno vs Juno matchup so easy if you know the tech while they dont, but otherwise it's redundant on everyone else almost every time

#

it's insane on direct hit Junkrat tho

#

the thing that makes it good is that it triggers three tap tommygun

proven knot
#

so it works like 3 tap right? I can shoot them from a range and it does a ton of damage?

hearty lodge
#

so you can build three tap on a character with slow shots and make it work with the antiair item

hearty lodge
#

it triggers the 3 hits of TTT

#

because its DoT that the game considers made from a weapon

proven knot
#

ah

hearty lodge
proven knot
#

I see

hearty lodge
#

you can actually build it to counter mercy as well

#

it's not bad... but it's purely situational

#

i love it's introduction in the item pool

proven knot
#

Mercy is super common on console. I can do it with my build as is

#

But if it made it even easier

#

its worth a mention in my future guide

hearty lodge
#

do you use TTT on dva?

#

always

#

every build

hearty lodge
#

i can see that working with a 4s dash and your miniguns

hearty lodge
proven knot
#

i think

hearty lodge
#

she's probs the best tank for it

proven knot
#

ttt and kitsune is incredibly broken as a combo to the point where you should always be building it IF your character can justify doing so

hearty lodge
#

you can one shot squishies if you have a TTT charge prepared and all your abilities to use

hearty lodge
#

i don't want to sound like a one trick pony but most my builds use that combo

proven knot
#

i can essentially one shot squishies from a range if they get no healing with it

hearty lodge
#

it's just so much good burst damage in a game where people heal so fast they seem immortal

proven knot
#

the only time i dont use kitsune is when i build weapon power

hearty lodge
#

people are using it on soldier, juno, dva, lucio, reinhardt, ashe, freja, junkrat, ana, it's just so insanely good

#

the worst thing is, i don't think it should be nerfed

#

i legit think we need more combos like that to make the mode interesting

proven knot
#

i dont know what they should do with it yet

#

its blatantly broken on dva and juno

hearty lodge
#

the game is gonna be SO interesting once they add consumables

#

i can see genjis buying a bunch of them to steamroll the early in rounds

proven knot
#

like rn im trying to hit legend and its legit been so easy with the combo

#

i dont even choose sustain items

#

i dont need them

hearty lodge
#

on juno you just take a 4000 item and you become immortal

#

that plus the hyper ring giving you more overhealth and you can confidently build damage

#

and the combo is so cheap it's not even funny

#

junkrat can't afford it tho...

proven knot
#

oh ya i think i pinged you with questions abt the build

hearty lodge
#

they need to buff junkrat

proven knot
#

ya my duo took those back lol

hearty lodge
#

mainly junkrat's cash income

proven knot
#

idk

#

hes tough

cant make him too good

just a nudge more so he doesn't end with 17.5k consistently on round 3
