Change all that and he's useless. The whole point of the character is that he wins 1 v 1 matchups. He's slow as hell, and has zero team support capabilities.

What's a good strategy against Trobjorn? Specifically when he has a turret tucked away in a corner.
Also I'm tired of seeing him in game highlights.

Also how do you Winston? You jump in, pop your bubble but your gun has no range and outside the bubble he is shockingly squishy so what to?
I'd like to know too, tried Winston a few times but didn't seem to do very well at all but some people wreck shit with him even without a pocket healer.

All that glowing red makes you too easy to see IMO. I ended up going with Ra instead. But if you landed that from a loot box, 'GRATS!
You just said why in your own post. Junktat, Pharah, Snipers will eat your turret for lunch. Inly dumdums will go head first into your turret as you said yourself.
You want to waste the ult to save yourself from dying? Well I guess thats your perrogative.
There's a ps4 group messaging thing I would suggest getting in on, has over 80 people and people always fill in groups with it. Not sure who all can invite to it so maybe someone can speak up on that.

Add yourself to the Google doc and search for quote to see on PS4 community.

For me it's just my general anxiety turning into performance anxiety.

So no one's up for PSN?
flashbang is team support as it'll stop anyone, that includes ults and people tying to kill your allies.
Considering hes being run 2 at a time right now in leagues, ask yourself why they would do that if he is not somehow also helping to support others

I would like to get invited! I added my details on the community list for OW, and I'm part of the GAF PSN community.
PSN: BladeofAura
And now I'm taking a break from playing OW... by watching OW. Nearing the end of the lower bracket in Agents Rising Day 2 and there's some sick play coming out.

Just played a match as Torbjorn and got my ass handed to me by a Reaper who kept managing to sneak down a flank and shred my turret multiple times. Either him or a Genji reflecting back the shots is a good counter.
Now a Torbjorn turret AND a Bastion shielded by a Reinhardt... I've seen my team lose so many attacks to that combo.

Question!
How do I play defense against a team with 1 Reinhardt, let alone 2? Torb is my favorite, but he doesn't have great mobility for getting around Rein's shields, and turrets aren't strong enough to punch through either.

Hello

Only took 25 levels
pretty sure 25 is the pity timer, haven't seen anyone say a higher number than that before getting a legendary (be it skin or gold)

Pharah's good for this. Boost up and over the shield and hit him from behind. Even indoors where there isn't airspace, you can hammer the shield with rockets and drop it that much quicker.
Alt fire the shields. In fact, people shoot those shields, they break you know? I keep seeing people go "welp he had the shield up guess we need to flank around 3 corners now"... no, no you dont you need to shoot that shit into oblivion so he panics.
Cross post from the other thread to continue here:
That's literally me. I shudder at PvP games. Here it's nice because there are no loadouts, no in-match shops. Just straight up characters vs characters, constantly countering each other. It's amazing.
Still hate dupe Meis...

Well time to quit for the night. Starting to get salty about losing. Got to 43 today though so I'm okay with that. Managed to get a McCree Legendary as well.

Ah. Sounds like a plan. She is probably my second favorite, so that won't be too bad. Rein just seems like such a damn popular pick I keep running into. Need to get better at countering.

Reinhart's shield can defend from his turret for ages. Hell, a user just mentioned having trouble with that matchup.
As an old engie/medic main Torbjorn's turret feels relatively weak. The fact that it doesn't have a third stage innately means it lacks that extra kick. You really need to rely on his actual weapon more than engineers do.

Got 1000 gold tonight, bought Mercy's Valkyrie skin. Looks so nice and she says "Til Valhalla!"when she uses her ult.
Might buy a Lucio skin next. Was thinking of hockey player skin, but frog looks so dumb that I kinda want it too.

Yeah, one thing I learned quickly, and one of the pains in the butts of always playing with random teams, is the vital importance of counter-picking. Having a main is nice, but I've lost so many matches where every other player besides me stuck with the same character the whole match, which is absolutely the wrong way to play this game. I think that's part of the reason I enjoy it so much, is that it's not just "run in and shoot, and if you lose it's because the other guy is a more accurate shot than you." If you're dying over and over again, it's a sign that you need to switch things up.
Speaking of which, another highlight of my night was my very first time playing Genji. I've always been nervous about playing him, but the team vitally needed someone to flank the enemy, and I knew that flanking is Genji's specialty. Not only did we win, but I got POTG for sneaking in behind the lines and slicing up three enemies with my ult. The feeling of satisfaction as I skittered up a wall and came up behind a Widowmaker who had no idea I was even behind her... just amazing.
I can't freaking breathe! Help!

So I just finished my first week of playing Overwatch, and I've been having so much fun. So glad I decided to pick this up.
I didn't get really excited about this game until just about a week or two before it came out. I had watched the initial reveal trailer when it was announced and thought it was interesting, but then it vanished from my radar for a long time after that. Then the open beta started and I got to play a bit of that and I fell in love. The game just feels great, the characters I tried are all interesting and fun to play I haven't played everyone just yet, I will though), I love the art style and tone, and it was just super easy to get into and have fun. After the beta, I binged on all of the animated trailers and read up a bit on the game and the world it takes place in and now I'm super in.
Probably my favorite character to play at the moment is Hanzo, because he's tons of fun, I really dig his design, and I love bows and arrows in games. It's super satisfying to get kills as him. I'm certainly no the best, but I like to think I'm pretty decent as him.
That said, I have at least one character of each class that I love to play so if there's a role that needs to be filled, I can totally do that. For offense, I really like using Genji, though I also like Soldier 76. For defense, I like Hanzo obviously, that said, I need to try out more of the other defense characters and learn them better. D.Va and Reinhardt are the tanks I play the most of and they are both tons of fun and for support I love using Lucio, though I am putting some time into playing Zenyatta as well.
I actually don't have much data on my career profile, as I spent much of my time playing the Arcade mode on the Weekly Brawl. which was just stupid fun. I look forward to all of the future weekly brawls and the shenanigans that they will bring to the game.
My personal favorite play of the game today for me was when I was playing defense on Hanamura, where as Hanzo, I managed to loose an arrow at just the right time, and took out Junkrat's tire Ult right when he used it, killing him at the same time. That was satisfying as hell, and it's how I learned that I can destroy Junkrat's tire Ult.
I'll would love to play with an PS4 Gaffers who would have me on their team, if you don;t mind having someone who's still learning and may not be all that great at times. My PSN is King_and_Clown.
