There's not a whole lot that goes into it. It depends entirely on the map and how many flank routes there are in that map. Generally though, Hog is very weak against double shield and you can only get value from just pure hard flanking. If you care about winning and making the SR go up, I suggest learning Sigma.
That Hanamura stairs fight is brutal. Zarya has a voice line "I'm on fire! I will lead us to victory." It's so frustrating when your main tank leads the whole team to defeat.
Hog should be able to hook sigma through his grasp. Just makes sense hog is weaker than sigma anyways. Edit: Haha I predicted that they would make this change. True intellectual coming through 5head
Just switched to pc from ps (top500 there) so my game sense isn’t an issue. Any tips not involving game sense on how to make a smoother transition, or anything else?
35 sr is just the perfect gain from 1 or 2 ranks below ur actuall rank i played placement for 10 seasons but in season 15 i played rank a bit and went from gold to diamond and i got 35 sr each game
Dude you should do like me, I basically only play custom games now. There are some really cool game modes out there, and you end up up playing with cool people as well.
i'd have to get an extra phone number onto this alt account then play an extra 25 games to be eligible for T500... but uh, T500 is extremely low and isn't hard at all to achieve, wouldn't take long whatsoever to get there
I’ve been playing overwatch since it came out and I’m high Diamond on Xbox and my buddy just started playing a few months ago but he’s top 500 on Xbox. I beat him 9 times out of 10 in 1v1’s but can’t rank up. I’m not making excuses but I think this is bull shit. I literally Win almost every time and he’s a good 1500 sr higher. I guess it’s blizzard being blizzard.
@@Yurusan717 I suppose if you put yourself in bronze you'd spend a bit more time climbing out of that elo as opposed to high plat, where Cyx placed. However, when Cyx says it doesn't take long to get to GM, he's a player who knows how to exploit the mistakes the opponents on the other team make, especially with Roadhog who's amazing at taking advantage of people out of position so for him, if he intentionally placed in bronze, it'd squeeze out another video MAYBE 2. Cyx is a great player and he's great at spotting mistakes other people make and take advantage of them as these videos show. Unlike other streamers/youtubers, he doesn't really have to explain why he makes the decisions he makes in game if you pay attention to his target priority and positioning. Again, using a hero like Roadhog that's self sustainable and good at exploiting bad gameplay, Cyx is able to get a lot of value out of a hero that is otherwise quite difficult to play into games in the highest of elo's.
The pharah hooks were spicy
"We're fine as long you dont int your brains out"
Cut to Lucio inting his brains out 😤
What does int mean?
@@Th3hUnT3R1 It means INTentionally throwing, like you are so braindead that its not an accident
@@tomrl6674 ah, ty
Hey Cyx, could you put out an educational video on how to play roadhog into double shield effectively? Thanks!

Jared Calladine that would make that ability even more useless. His strength doesn’t lye in kinetic grasp.
oh jheez ???
oh jheez sigma is better than hog so I think hog should be able to have at least something to be able to counter him/ make hog better and more useful
@@tobe.moemeka How is Sigmas ability useless, I've seen that shit save so many teamfights.
Casey Nivans compared to matrix it is
This gameplay be fuckin clean. Coordination and spacing on point, hooks and right clicks be hella nasty, keep it up man.
That pharahs finna hear chain hook noises in her nightmares
U fr be hittin these hooks on the pharah and ur team dont care 😂
Watching you and Harb has helped me get to GM
*the comment isn’t available *
and she lives :(
too bad even in masters people won't help you secure a kill after using hook
@@MrTsar-ui8eh
if you tell them before, they might pay more attention to your hooks. It helps alot
@@nocobot978 im gonna successfully hook the pharah rn guys watch for it Pepega
Do you remember me?the "you sound like freshnuts a bit" guy
yeah i remember you typing that
@@6Cyx are you going to work because you are streaming mostly at the evenings?
Also some nutty Pharah Hooks, thank you :')
I love the shocked, "UH-!" when you miss hooks
It took me far too long to remember where I recognized that sub tune from... L4D!!!
YO SAME OMG THANK YOU FOR MAKING ME REMEMBER
"Holy shits"😂😂😂😂😂
your an absolute monster what a beast with these hooks incredible man
you are way too good im a hog main and would kill to be this good at hog
Welcome to masters, where the players still have no clue how to play tank lmao.

18:55 wtf was that symm wall like holy fuck
What is your winrate?
very high
those environmental kills gah damn
My man you make me wish I kept playing overwatch, I was top 500 in season 2 and 3 on console playing hog. But the game is just boring to me now.
Dude you should do like me, I basically only play custom games now. There are some really cool game modes out there, and you end up up playing with cool people as well.
@@theryag863 nah I'm tired of multiplayer in general. I just play solo nowadays and I'm happy with that. Playing borderlands 3 and it's really fun.
Op
yooo what is this surround sound glory
Can you make this unbranded to top 500 so we can get an extra episode
i'd have to get an extra phone number onto this alt account then play an extra 25 games to be eligible for T500... but uh, T500 is extremely low and isn't hard at all to achieve, wouldn't take long whatsoever to get there
@@6Cyx "Top 500", "extremly low"
*cries in diamond*
Love how hes gone from bronze to master and still level 25🤨
pogu
6:58 “Hog is huge!”
Well he’s 600 pounds so... he’s not wrong
And *600* *HP* what a coincidence
Cyxinches ;)
they dont call me "six" for nuthin
Cyx that’s hot
You had a sym on your team I'm disappointed......
why diamond feels harder than masters games lol
Cus people in masters are there cause they were masters during a single meta but the game is easy to retain rank in future seasons.

It really doesn't take long to get GM, especially on fresh accounts.
@@6Cyx is it harder to climb if it's not a fresh account?

I like how no one complains about him smurfing as soon as he gets to masters. Just proves ppl who complain about smurfs are plat/gold
maybe because the diffenrence isnt as noticeable. in plat/gold a gm/top500 hog will just flat out ruin the game.
.ui
Z...
Cyx check out my latest hook im not normal
Unranked means literally nothing, your literally gm the whole video
you lost one placement. if you win every game you would've earned 100 sr per win
Thats not how it works lmao
