I love the aspect of this game being more game sense focused. So what are some of your guys’ tips to having great fundamentals and climbing the ranks. I’ll take tips for any role, I’m really trying to improve and take this game seriously.

Hey.

I've been playing tankpool since season 7 but after the nerfs he doesn't feel that good compared to Emma Frost, my actual main. Also Dino.

DPSpool seems very fun and I'm seeing him getting a lot of attraction. What's his place in the meta and can you drop some tips?

Thanks in advance.

How to counter iron fist? Just played 2 games in plat where the enemy iron fist destroyed our team. I’m a tank main.

Thanks.

I am in GM2 and mainly play shield tanks like Emma, strange mag and main strange and occasionally play thing and cap but I am hot garbage and die a lot. Either I am push up way to far thinking my team is behind me and next thing you know they are 200m away from fighting off a venom or dive or the supports play a million miles away thinking a BP, spiderman and cap are all out to get them and nobody pings me to back off. Like wtf am I suppose do? Do I just have to look back every 5 seconds or pray that my team is behind me?

Looking to know what have been some good choices, bad choices, and what was worthless risks.

Did I have any impact or was I just lucky?

What's something obvious to you that seems like I was oblivious to?

Was there anything I did where I had the right idea but wrong approach?

Also for some background, my main is Cap, but lately using Hulk since I feel more versatile and easier to solo tank with Hulk than Cap. My other tank that I enjoy is Tankpool if he's free depending on enemy comp. My alts are Strange and Emma if Im solo and/or just need a stronger anchor with a shield. Magneto just doesn't click for me for some reason...not sure why

Haven't been feeling good about my plays lately so looking for advice

I suck. At this point with the amount of time I've put into this game and more specifically StarLord (my main), I should be playing better. I shouldn't be the one in my matches holding the team back and having high deaths. You can watch this replay code and any other games I play if you'd like.

However, what I REALLY want to hear is thoughts primarily on my aim with StarLord. You could probably make a whole book on the stuff I did wrong in these games without mentioning aim and I'm aware of this; painfully so. But aim is a HUGE part of my problems with this character and DPS in general. You can say whatever you want, however you want. No matter what it takes to get through to me because everything else isn't working. Am I a lost cause?

Saw a post in the main sub about how you're supposed to dive enemy supps so Dino doesn't get heals and dies, but in my limited number of games so far, it made more sense to me to pump his head full of lead. What are you all finding more success with? I can't help but feel like diving the supps gets you chomped and killed, even with a coordinated dive.

Like I just think of it as "generic ultra mobile" hero.

This is a new thing for me. I used to differentiate between high mobility divers of yore like BP, SM and Psy. I wouldnt even say SM and Psy match the ultra mobility of the new heroes in their un-trackability.

I think the glut of new heroes has changed my thinking. DD didn't do it. But the series of Deadpool, Elsa and Black Cat is what seems to have tipped me over the edge.

How crucial is it that I know in the moment exactly which hero it is I'm interacting with?

Do you have any tips for keeping them distinct in your mind? Any tips to differentiate between them in the moment?

Now I am mostly a QP warrior so bear with me. Naturally a new character means they are gonna be in every game on both sides. Naturally that makes it seem like he is good etc. We saw the same with every new release.

He does feel oppressive though. Demands so much attention. Not just when fighting him, but if I'm a support I barely have time to reload or this fat fuck has a 50/50 chance of just turning up dead before I can heal him again.

For those that may have a better understanding of the game, is he the release mauga of rivals, or maybe him being in every game makes it biased?

I decided this season I'm going to dedicate time to learn Venom

My biggest issue is that I'm rolling out from spawn too slow and I feel like I have a lot of bad downtime between fights even if my elims are good and deaths are low. I watched several guides but I still don't even know what I don't know. I want to see what higher rank Venom players do.

If you are GM+/Cel+ on PC (or if you were last season), please send a couple of vod codes of your Venom play?

or if your account is public and you don't mind letting me watch your history, you can DM it to me.

I want to get better. Thanks!

I just can't hit anything. It's like my aim is moving through sludge and it's so jerky no matter what settings I use. I have some light arthritis and idk if that's just making this impossible. It's mostly in my fingers.

I don't seem to be capable of tracking or making small adjustments. Any time someone moves and I adjust, my aim just like... teleports and jerks all over the place, and I'm not sure if that's me or my ingame settings or my mouse or my mousepad or what.

I'll give an example in a replay code right here.

Yes I paused several times during the match to adjust my settings and also to type to my team, because they were talking about the enemy Punisher and thinking he's cheating. I know I've gotten in trouble for posting codes where I've done this afk thing before but I wasn't just afking for no reason.

Compare me (Koboldoggo) to the enemy Punisher. I'm not sure wtf is going on with my aim and why it's so horrible. It's like something is actually wrong with me, but is that because my hands and my body is just too fucked up and old and I have terrible eye hand coordination? Or is this something that can be trained?

I'm not sure what settings to use, what mouse to use, what dpi to use and all that. My current dpi is 800 and my ingame sensitivity for Punisher was around 2 but I decreased it to 1 mid match to see if that would help. It did not. The jerking thing continued. I tried to slow down my aim very consciously but the problem with that is then my aim is slow.

How does one get aim like the enemy Punisher?

I'm kind of asking... am I lost cause with aim here? This happens to me with all characters. Hela, Phoenix, Rocket, Punisher, Widow, anyone that requires aim. I'm okay with Namor but... Namor has a giant spear.
Weird thing is I'm not terrible with Widow, Ashe, Cassidy or Hanzo in Overwatch, even before they increased projectile/hitscan size.

I’ve played on linear for tens of hours, but I see many people using dual zone and suggesting it. Is it worth it to learn it?

I played comp last season and actually played about 200 games. Made it to grandmaster. I played comp since season started and I have lost so many games. My win rate is like 30%. I’m a strategist main. I know good positioning and always by natural cover. I’ve gotten a lot of svp as a strategist too. I usually have the least amount of deaths. The problem is my dps. They are incompetent. They go in front of tanks and just try to get kills and it punishes them. They also don’t know how to counter. A lot of the dps are one trick players. When I look at the other team they have either high grandmaster players or celestial and my team is full of low diamond peaks. Do I just need to wait or what am I doing wrong? I’m seriously kind of frustrated at this point.

Ok so I'm a flex player, and I was playing comp with this Hella and Namor on the enemy team. These 2 are SO OVERPOWERED, and i feel like they have aim bot, so I get fed up and go Venom to counter them. Because Dive counters Poke right?

Anyway I do go Venom, and we did win (I honestly don't know how), but I terrible. Everyone on my team got like 10-20 kills more than me, and I just felt like I didn't do much the entire match. I'm not sure how we won, but I think it's because the original tank went DPS when I went Venom, and probably DPSed better than me 😭

I don't really care abt getting DPS diffed, but I do consider myself a vanguard main, so it kinda hurts that I got ruined on Venom :(

Please give me any tips for improving.
