literally one of the craziest challenges i have seen, the concept of not shooting to the best rank(aside from top 500) in any shooting game is beyond insane
@@kekecaca391 well thats up to the user to learn the mechanical skills of the character since he has a high skill floor. Mix character mastery with great game sense, you're pretty much a menece on the floor. If ball was that broken, every single game would have them rolling around
Lbr if chazm used any other hero and never primary fired hed get destroyed everytime. Ball is the only hero u can literally not shoot and potentially reach top 500 aside from SOME healers.
1:27 I feel the Ana's pain through the screen of finally sleeping the menace who is the *ball* only for him to be immediately woken up by the clueless tank 😢
@@meer7872 sure, for group play and plat+ it's not as hard. solo queue at Bronze-Gold is a different story. when you get team mates with no game sense and terrible positioning, whilst also staggering their deaths... it's not so easy. I had to start season 1 with my bronze mmr from 2016 because I merged my PlayStation and blizzard accounts. I've gotten to gold several times only to be knocked back down every time and only like 10% of my losses are really a healer diff
@@Kamikazeman1234 At that calibre with that luck, any role is difficult. Can't move as tank because supports don't keep you alive and damagers don't make picks or use your space. Can't move as damage when tank won't make space or supports aren't prioritising or positioning well. Support is generally the easiest because one can minmax his healing rotation and generally make his team so survivable that their bad gameplay is mitigated.
I'm absolutely mesmerised how good chazm is with the grapple... Consistent double, or even triple boops, sometimes even quads. It's insane, and as a terrible gold 3 ball, you have so much of my respect. Also lol @ people calling you a smurf when your damage output is so heavily nerfed from not shooting.
Also the technique that he has never addressed nor provided to KarQ or anyone in a tips video: after a boop you don't need to slow down and reignite fireball, you can turn about 45º and that resets the boop rate. He moves between techniques with such natural fluidity, from double fireball boops, double grapple boops, triple grapple boops, pinballing, washing machining, rebounds, wall jumps from every angle and direction and on enemy players!
@@skarloeythomas5172 Yeah that did confuse me on why the double was even working without slowing down. Good to know that you can just turn 45° and reset it. Yup! It's no wonder he's rank 1 ball lmao
I love how Chazm has match chat TTS on, not because he can't read it, but because he IS Hammond, and Hammond needs the mech to translate for him. He has that lore buff fr.
I feel like your climbing will be easier from high diamond and master's onwards as you get matched with players who actually know how to play with ball and shoot the enemies you boop/slam for them to get easy picks (with you not being able to shoot them yourself) so looking forward to that :)
@@omlk_doom1595 with a challenge like this, having team-mates that can follow up on the space you make is way more valuable that the enemy not being good enough to deal with you
Your content is so fun to watch. You're one of my favorite OW2 youtubers. Hell, you managed to get me to try Ball and he's now one of my favorite tanks
I binged this series in under two hours and damn, this is content. You’re absolutely insane. I’m always amazed by people like you who are simply so damn good at this game.
Most regular unranked to GM are super boring. This is so much fun to watch. And there’s no doubt in my mind you will get to GM. Honestly once you get to high ranks and have DPS that can effectively follow up on your slams I don’t think you’ll have much of an issue
He didn't go Sombra to annoy people, it was to counter ball. Honestly seeing him destroy the stubborn widow is more satisfying, because I get such DPS players who refuse to swap out of ego no matter how bad he plays or makes team suffer.
If a player is so fundamentally better at a hero than anyone else in the lobby at a certain elo, the argument that smurfing with a handicap makes it fair isn't the right argument to make. You could argue that the handy cap gives them a chance, but that doesn't change the fact that gm game sense, movement, and mechanics overwhelms the other team without needing to chase kills, especially at lower elos where players dont know to play against ball.
Chazm trying to convince himself that smurfing on a character that has the most cosmetic m1 in the game but without shooting is ethical is some next level fr
Ball is so frustrating to play against. The thing about it is that Ana and Brig can both severely hinder him but you have to be cracked to do it. I had a game a few days ago on Ana that I had 16 sleep darts landed and all were on the GM ball-he only had 1 death at the end of the game despite that. It’s SO hard to kill him even with a full team looking and with him asleep. Even with their tank asleep most of the game, we still almost lost because of how much chaos he was causing while sleep was on cooldown.
@@1lovew1zardz I think he may have been talking about the moral issues of smurfing and how it’s “ok” if you are handicapped with it. (I have no opinion just dropping by)
@@evanmcdonald9134 im just making the point that you can basically get rid of any ability on any hero and get out of bronze if your monitor is turned on
I get what your trying to say about the ranked ladder but i think ball is a more obnoxious doomfist, constant displacement in an area for a 4 second duration then to top it off you slam either continue the cycle or run away with adaptive sheilds.
Tons of high ranked creators out here thinking they can do the most for the team for content, my streamer out here wondering if he can get plat without doing anything this is the overwatch content i didn't know i needed
In a first person shooter, he is forgoing the number one means of user activity. I don't think there is any fairer caveat to going unranked to grandmaster. It's not even illicit in the first place, as it would be the game's issue placing a good player in a low lobby. Dropping to bronze and going up is illicit.
There's a few maps that have small gaps in the floor that seem to count as 'drops' so you can piledrive over them. King's row C also has this. Roll over them & PD
Btw I've been playing with no left click thanks to your inspiration and it has actually increased my mobility and cooldown usage significantly to the point that I force the enemy to switch to sombra almost every game now lmao
It's kind of a separate game in its own right. I always though that if I was 'done' with Overwatch, like I was in 2017 until OW2 came out, I could have decided to play the Ball game, which is almost relearning and rereading the entire rest of the game in a new perspective.
This brought fun back to OW me and my buddy are trying this strategy and went 5-3 in Plat lobby and I got to diamond playing Hammond not shooting and reedit Lucio and its the most fun I've had on OW2 since beta

Yeah you inspired me to pick up ball. I suddenly realized thrat it's tough to play him without technicals -- walljumps and such. He's a lot more technical than I thought..! Are these things supposed to even be in the game?
i could be wrong but i feel as though both challenges are equally as hard especially once you get to diamond and masters. ball so shooting doesnt allow you to finish kills and rein no sheild makes taking space a nightmare whereas with the ball challenge you can take space and disrupt still and with the rein challenge you can finish your kills
Hey Chazms (afk thrower here) to answer your question about what rank you could get by not doing anything. In reverse, the rank you can get by just staring at them is an astounding D5 before you have to start hard throwing. (Hard Throwing: any strategical tactic used to make your team lose. Ineedheals spamming, feeding, NVboops, greedleading regrouping, etc.) It's surprisingly easy to get Overwatch players (even GM ones) to do what you want if they believe you're just really bad (I think it's because they know that you won't attack them so it's kind of like this "action = reward" kind of repititon in their monotonous tryharding.)
I actually want to see if you could get to gm by holding down the S key and never letting it go for the entire game + no E. Think it would make an interesting challenge

No way is rein no shield easier than ball no quads... sick vid tho chazm love it
