      Also, I didn't say this earlier, but I was thinking about it in the back of my mind while finishing up my day at work: The reason I actually enjoyed this style of video the most isn't that it resonated with my hero pick. It was the fact that you are so genuine in your approach to narration. You aren't trying to inflate your ego or trash talk anyone, just give an honest tale of your experience.

    As a doom player I also got flamed a lot and told to switch after one lost teamfight in the past seasons.
    Players seem to think that the hero pick matters more than individual skill.
    I just turned chat off completely and it helped a lot. With chat on, I not only needed to manage my own mental, but that of my teammates as well, even if they get tilted way easier than I do.
    I have now managed to climb all the way to Diamond, which definitely proves them wrong!

I cannot stand ppl who dont know what they are talking about but think they do. Ive gotten like 3 bans for hard flaming my team after they make me swap, i do, play fine and they are still turbofeeding on moira frontlining tickling everyone. If i get forced off a character im enjoying purely so you can stop crying in chat and then you still take unreasonable deaths u better be ready for that flame. Its always the support players now too. The state of the role has wayyy too many of them with inflated egos thinking they are actually good at the game.

    i'm a gold ball main (ball actually carried me to gold for the 1st time last month, i know i suck) and i have to say that ball has never felt so good in either ow1 and ow2. the shields on top of the armor are such a game changer, it protects my armor plate from poke and regens by itself so good and that's not even including adaptive (over)shields on top of the body shield. you have no idea how much time i wasted getting megas because the supports' skill level is just as "meh" as i am (same sr). when ball is going well it's the most fun i've had on any video game in maybe 5 years
    edit: i also get abuse from players who don't understand ball. it's pretty crazy some of these guys are actual adults. they'll get toxic even if you have the most damage and elims and you're tanking.

    Gone through the same stages, though my Yeatle was just a recording but the same tips apply. Ball's so much fun and I found it can really be the unexpected solution in uncoordinated matches with low heals AND against anti-nade. Use Yeatle's 3 S' strategy and find the best way to exploit the chaos. It's like playing Katamari Damacy except you're rolling egos. Hampter's been the answer to switch to in so many matches that it slowly grappled all the way up to be my most played hero.

    As a ball player when I first started playing Overwatch2, when it comes to Wrecking Ball I don't play like a tank instead I play like a ball.
    Wrecking Ball is extremely squishy for a tank and he is built for traversing instead of face tanking everything.
    I had to learn to be very bouncy and always on the move when it comes to Ball, because sitting still is a death sentence.
    Now let me say a few things for new players as well.
    1 - Ball's shield is a safety net, use it when you are in the red. Especially when you need to make a quick get away.
    2 - Aside from the poop & scoop trick, I have one that I find really easy to use on certain maps. Just grapple onto a thin pillar and spin, for a short minute you'll be able to cause damage especially when the enemy team tries to get back to the point and as a added bonus you can release at the last minute to make a quick getaway due to the extra speed and you can run over a few players on your way out or for added protection you can use the shield while spinning. I call it the "Spinning Wrecker".
    And finally be prepared when you gotta deal with teammates lacking in support or don't know how to use a support character. My last teammate had life weaver and tried to send me out of harms way only to get me blown up by D.Va's ultimate.

    Just about every game, I force a Sombra switch. I stay in the backline and constantly annoy them and then just run away swipe a pack and in 3 seconds, I’m back at it again. The worst thing about ball is that often times, a Kiriko (ally/teammate) will try and chase me to heal me and leave herself stranded in the backline. Rule 1 for healers playing with ball with never chase him. If he is a good ball, he will survive and live off of health packs.

    I LOVE playing Ball so much, getting everyone raging is the pinnacle of my existence. You're sniping on height in Kings Row? Now I'm on height applying the pressure. Teammates too far to contest point? I've contested point for 2 spawn rotations back to back. Disruption and banter is Balls game.
    Ana, Roadhog and Sombra are definitely the only counters, we can slingshot into the sky and knock a Pharah off her ability timing or even as she's about to land you pile drive her back up.
    Remember that the payloads destroy your minefield so placing them behind the pay load is a little bit better if it can be helped. If someone is one shot use your grapple to finish them off (like you tried to do to the Bastion) :D great video

      @yoshkahanson7368 ปีที่แล้ว

      Also a lot of players don't realize how much you do for the team unless you're in the POTG. Like if you're pressuring the back line, you're keeping the front line at a 4v3 advantage and stopping the back line from healing even if you are slept, I try to throw a couple jumps side to side in when I'm 1v1 with Ana so she might miss the dart. Stall the point so they have less time on the next if you can't do anything else. Reload only in the ball never outside of the ball (2-3 seconds of scouting time if you ask me) then recontest when you have shields again

    I stopped maining ball after OW2 because of the absolute disgusting amount of toxicity people had towards him. Watching this was so much of the end of OW1 for me. Now that he is buffed I am starting to get back i to him and I love it so much. GREAT video!! Hope you keep in touch with the Hamter play💪🏽

    Ball is my go to anytime I'm not having fun. He is super under appreciated and loads of fun to play and learn.
    When I'm sick of sweating as a support main, Hammond reminds me to "Be the Ball" and keep rollin'

    I love playing ball, but the thing that taught me how to play him was mount and blade. He is CAVALRY! Quick, effective strikes and causing a panic or route of the enemy is his specialty. On defense, you set up and crush any pushes to your point. Hammy Spammy baby, much love!

    learnt two things:
    1. Gamers are nerds... like crazy nerds. Telling someone to TKO themselves because of a choice (that is IN THE GAME) is nuts!
    2. Never underestimate the impact a good mentor can have!

    There needs to be something In the game explaining that some heroes fundamentally function differently than others, even if they're in the same roles. Same goes for support players who get flamed for not being heal bots.

    As a doom and ball main both of these movement heroes are so much fun (I play doomfist for picks and etc in my own way it works because displacement doom is boring af) I’m glad to see people pick up these hero’s and get value from otherwise very difficult characters very good !!!

    As a fellow Baller, I'm so happy you actually covered the verbal abuse aspect as well. The toxicity in this game is already seething, but playing Hammond on top of that?
    Season 1 & 2 was pure abuse lmao, but so far after the buffs, most games people have kept quiet. I've only had a game or two so far in season 3 with ball haters on the same team.

    Well, it looks like I can see that wrecking ball and widow maker users have something in common 😭 I’ve been trying to master widow for a while. And the first thing I get told when I queue into a game is that I’m dogshit and I should die. It’s crazy how a video game warps people’s view on how the people behind these characters are human too. It’s hard, really fucking hard. The entire server was on my ass once and it can get overwhelming. If you suck at them, you’re called names. If you’re godly at them, you’re called names. It’s like a double edged sword and there’s no way to avoid it.

  • @BeachLookingGuy
    @BeachLookingGuy ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I love Wrecking ball, it's Such a fun hero. One of my simple setup's is to get behind the enemy and just shoot at them from a distance to cause a distraction. I will shoot at them for as long as they turn around to shoot back. sometimes you get lucky and cause enough distraction for your team to capitalize on. If the enemy stops focusing me that is when I will come in swinging around and knocking them all out of position.
    When im really on a roll (no pun intended), i love to spam the "frustration detected" voice line.

    You touched on the secret to countering sombra...you have to stay close to health packs and aggresively start headshot firing back the second younger hacked..You'll win every fight and she'll switch.(only works when isolated)
    Also you grapple wrong for swinging under bridges..you have to grapple as high and as far behind the bridge as possible to poop and scoop yhoguh it...if that make sense

    I feel you about the toxic teammates in Comp. When the team gets the payload in or wins one round people start leaving and going afk, I usually play dps and the healers start yelling at us telling us to protect them when we do, and they just don't heal us so we can fight. It's just too chaotic for me to handle sometimes in competitive. It gets me super stressed out and then I start playing really awful because they all yell at each other or just leave.
