The #1 Zarya player in the world. Skip to 5:30 to see start of her matches. She was accused of cheating, she has an absurd high win rate of 80%+ with 420+ games played. She got up a live stream and completely dominates some of the best Korean players in the world. There were even 2 professional players who bet the poopslap of gaming (They quit forever) that she was cheating. They have now quit lol.

I have a new favorite cheese strat on volskaya industries on attacking the second point.

torbjorn.

You set up on the stairwell outside the main B capture room where the moving platforms come in.

Everyone takes turns setting up turrets and upgrading them to lvl2 on the moving platforms that rotate into the cap area and let them run inside and start wrecking people. Turret after turret after turret until you have your ult. Then you just wait for it to enter the b cap room, press q and blow everyone up as you take the point.

If the turret survives and is taken away, just drop another one and go.

I hate attacking against this. Almost every good way to take out a turret is taken away due to it moving and it having the high ground.

Impressive run and hilarious that people are betting their gaming career.

I was more amazed at how damn close he was sitting to his monitor, I'd go blind in a week doing that.

Or i just read the article
quote:
One of the highest ranking Overwatch players in the world, Gegury, has been cleared by Blizzard Korea over allegations that she had somehow managed to hack her way to a top spot position.

The 17-year-old, who plays as Zarya, first caught the eye of other Overwatch players when she began to compete in regional tournaments. With a win rate of 80 percent in 420 games played, Gegury quickly became one of the most revered players, but it wasn't until her team kicked out some of the other major Korean teams while playing in the Nexus Cup qualifier that people started accusing her of cheating.

Bunny hopping, so dumb. Zarya wrecks in the hands of a good player.

By the end of the stream, Gegury was in tears, and said the stress of the accusations over the past few days had finally gotten to her.

I really like this game, but *********if Torbjorn isn't almost ruining the game on consoles right now.

Lame. Seems decently balanced on PC. Junkrat is a great counter for Torbj imo and usually seems to work.

Someone posted a bunch of data on the Overwatch subreddit confirming that Torb is getting a lot more wins on console vs PC and has a much more favorable K/D ratio on console vs PC.

Part of me wonders if the name molten core isn't a dig at riot for never releasing their custom 1v1/2v2 map that was at all stars a few years ago.

I figured it was just a reference to the world of Warcraft original raid zone.

The different stats for torb on PC vs console is interesting.

Yeah, honestly, the only way to counter multiple torbs on console is to have an extremely coordinated push which is only going to happen if you have a premade team of 6. I will probably start trying harder to find people to play with here pretty soon. Molten core is really frustrating as well, the turret you are about to kill suddenly has 800 hp, which is pretty much impossible to take down.

I've played recently with some guys off reddit. Its gone ok. The best part is that I don't feel I ALWAYS have to run support to win the way I do with randoms.

At first, I hated torb, but the more I play him (even on PC) the more I grow to love the guy. He's pretty versatile and his ultimate is underappreciated, even without a turret.

I've been having so much fun on volskaya industries on attack at the 2nd point with my floating assault turrets of doom.

Environment kills are my favorite. Why did you break it down right there, though? Save that for an ultimate buster.

It was obvious we were rolling that team, and I wanted a fun end to the clip.

I just got windows on my Mac and thought I'd see how I like the pc version. My God it's a revelation compared to console.
