I truly respect cloudy for not giving up in this challenge, that only says how much of a strong mentality he has. I mean anybody who have watched his streams following this challenge know how unlucky the guys is with the matchmaking and the map poll. Every other streamer would just given up at 500 games doing something like this. I honestly believe this challenge is imposible, but if someone can do it that one is cloudy for sure
One must imagine LHSisyphus happy. The never-ending Orisa, Bastion, Mauga, streamsnipers, throwers, it may take 10,000 games but he will never give up. o7 o7 o7
Someone tried to do this before but they got banned just like you before they could finish their challenge. This is a very ruthless and spartan-like training that has a lot of potential for improving on reinhardt though. Being able to win without that extra 1500 health is already baffling, but getting to masters as well? That's even crazier. You have a lot of my respect.
@Matsroe if gaming is something you do in your free time and you do it to have fun, it's not an issue. I unfortunately had a big ego and a competitive mindset, so it stopped being fun and started only being about winning or talking shit in the chat or just using the adrenaline to stay up for 3 days straight. At the end of the day, a game is just a game, and there are more important things to be pouring my energy into.
The problem is that your teammates expect an occasional shield when they see you pick rein, just like you expect to be healed as a tank. Now imagine you are to go into these lobbies doing this challenge, and you get a dps only ana and/or mostly dps moira on your team. You're probably going to flame them for throwing, but just like you "they're trying a new playstyle". You can't expect to keep your sanity when you're not willing to compromise and are met with the same mentality from others.
That's just not the same thing lmao. If you're playing Mei and only walling off teammates or playing Ana and never heal teammates that's not even playing your role correctly anymore, that's not a "new playstyle" that's straight up throwing. He's in the frontline still taking aggro and while he's probably a lot more vulnerable he's still playing his role correctly. He's playing the same way he would if he was constantly suppressed by old sombra or broken shield. It's not like he's charging in a straight line towards them or jumping off the map due to some "new playstyle" You can accomodate for a tank taking a lot more damage but you can't accomodate for 0 dmg or 0 heals.
You will do it, Cloudy. I have never believed in anything more than I believe this. You. Will. Do. It. Today IS the day. Thank you for all of the incredible streams. I'm glad to see you finally put out the video, big man. Congrats on all of the hard work!
As if unranked to GM runs weren't bad enough already... at least now I know what's going on with all my teammates being unable to use basic abilities or aim lmfao
lets say, each match could last 25-40 mins per game you played 1500 games no shield, with streamsniper etc reached lv 130 i sometimes wonder how can a streamer spend so much time doing repetitive task, the mental fortitude and dedication, geez you deserved a break man
Maybe you mean: I can't reach GM with no shield even though I've been top 50 for the whole exisiting of OW1 and OW2 so my point is actually wrong and you need a shield to reach GM?
Blizzard sucks lmao. Who is that butthurt over a little smack talk. Espc when ur responding. Not even initiating. I hate to be that guy but gaming is getting soft and I hate it.
Atp ive started abusing it. I've been comm banned/banned for a month just for mild toxicity. Might as well return the favor because with enough reports, you can get muted just for saying gg.
I hate to say it too cause I hate when other ppl do, but why was I getting dogpiled on for saying Wolverine in Marvel’s Rivals doesn’t need a fucking buff. Mfs were saying that just because he’s busted in high elo doesn’t mean he doesn’t need a buff, and that it should be easier for most of the player base to play him. Are you serious? In no field would you think to reward someone for doing sub par work, better yet, making it easier to do so. Ts is crazy.
3:48 can someone explain to me here how diamond is top 500? Like I play console and top500 is masters, so I’m just confused. Was it like the beginning of a season or something???
this season has been my worst season since ow1 s15 having barely won any games in my 40 hrs of playtime, mainly playing support and getting tank diffed almost all losses is just so frustrating, i wish 2-2-2 makes a comeback so that at least on tank i dont get coinflip games anymore. Statswise i played my best support since ow2 release but everything i do seems to be useless :/
Absolutely love the dedication and effort you put into this challenge! It’s fascinating to see how you adapt to Rein’s playstyle without relying on his shield. The way you manage positioning and rely on team coordination is really impressive. Definitely changes how we think about Rein’s role in the gam sometimes, it’s not about the shield but how you lead the team forward. Keep up the great work! 💥👊"
tbh I wish there was more than shatter clips. It doesn't give much insight into no shield rein. Idk how one would improve with no shield I just see shatter.
@@ArchitectBHyou will always get to 50% winrate even if you consistently throw, since you just get put with lower skill players. Hes throwing because he would have a higher rank if he were to use his shield. I also dont care that he is throwing like this
All of these soft people crying in the comments, “i would report you” “you were trolling” omg stop acting like little girls, what has the gaming community become?
People are incredibly soft these days, down side of gaming becoming mainstream I guess. If what Cloudy said in this video is what got him banned that's just crazy in my mind.
Has anyone ever actually proven that quickplay has an impact on your rank in competitive? Like, has anyone done a side by side comparison of the difference, showing their comparative QP performances and then their full comp placement games to show that there is a difference? YK like an actual scientific style comparison. Or are people just guessing based on their own experience and what they've seen, because that's not scientific at all lol
Your account schould be permbanned for throwing games, blatant gameplay sabotage, and then having the audacity to complain to your average diamond teammates for not playing like a top 500 player, truly a disgrace to the ow community
I have no evidence of this but most U2GM accounts should get banned, but even if they do it doesnt matter because these are all clearly throwaway accounts made just for the video? it wont matter even if they do
Huh? After hundreds of games, even though he’s playing with a disadvantage the ranked system puts him where he should be. If he was worse than the diamond players and “throwing their games” he’d be in plat
Bro there was a gm Smurf in my plat game that only shielded and i was a tank on the opposite team and i was being blammed for not doing my job on tank lmao. Idk who started this but ppl are Smurfing to get these vids. Ps: the smurf tank literally said he doesnt got to try while we dont. i feel bad for the ppl who enjoy Smurfing that low.
yo where the fuq is the no hammer rein? if me as a low masters tank who has never played rein can get mid dia... all i can say is... do it, ez. qp was played on dps. Get masters w no hammer or you bad.
Alternate Title: I Smurf on Support in QP to get to Plat Shieldless Rein on EU PC servers to prove that teammates really are holding you back from Diamond to below shield is required but once you have good teammates you can finally play Tank

Cloudy because of you I basically one trick Reinhardt now and i climbed from plat to masters in a two seasons! Truely inspiring gameplay, keep it up big man
Despite the several well known Reinhardt's at the top of the mountain, to me Cloudy, you stand above them all as the number 1 Rein OTP in the world lmao

Yeah but he's throwing, no shield is a throw by itself. Why give players another reason to quit overwatch?
I'm sorry bro but he could carry the games way harder with a shield lol. Not every game he loses isn't his fault

I miss playing Rein but the game was ruining my life
Can I ask how it was ruining your life? Games are hobby that you do when you have nothing to do at home, just wondering how it affected your life

idc cloudy still the goat
Ahata funny about seeing this vid is I had a rein refuses to do any dmg and we still somehow won. It was 9ne of the most frustrating games ever.
Ngl if I finish a game and see my tank who has been on Rein the entire game have 0 mit I am going straight to the report button I don’t even care
he can’t do more tho
Lower ranks don't care about the shield if the enemy team is dead. He would farm shatter so fast that would negate any other ult. lol
13:45 dawg this is Masters, no one is gonna go in with a Rein who won't shield lmao
How many hours did he have on rein in this acc?

Ran into eumongege once or twice. Going to check the next vid.
Proving rein is useless without his shield is so stupid. His whole kit is what makes him rein. Just throwing for fun is good for videos I guess.
