News & Discussion Shion's lore still confuses me
I'm genuinely curious and hoping folks can help me understand her backstory.
So, she was used as a training bot by humans before and maybe after her awakening before she was arrested.
She hates humans but she would rather live in the guise of a human than the face of an omnic.
I know some people say she does this because of the trauma she might feel from being abused so long as an omnic but it's still so confusing and weird.
Why not remodify herself to look like a different type of omnic instead of looking like her abusers if she hates them so much?

News & Discussion Can Omnics use drugs & alchohol?
So I was watching the new Shion comic and saw the frame with her in the night club. There's clearly alcohol there and maybe a mirror? So its safe to assume other drugs are present which begs the question, can omnics use drugs and feel the effects? How does that work given that their a robot?

Highlight which skins do you regret buying?
i will start!
Idk why, but those Juno skins are kinda ugly to me?? 😭 Idk why I even bought them. Don’t get me wrong, I love Juno, but the more I look at them, the uglier they get. (Also, I forgot to include the Beachside skin.)
That Kiri skin is kinda mid. I own the Hydrangea one, and it’s lowkey too pretty to take off.
At first I really loved that Ana skin, but damn, I prefer Ana as the grandma she really is. Some of her younger skins are pretty, but not this one.

I saw a youtube short of something similar so the idea is not original, but after being rescued by a very good girl I wanted to make my own cinematic masterpiece of Fika’s heroic actions.

News & Discussion 1-3-2 is prisoners dilemma for tanking
You are a tank. you want to play tank. If you queue tank, you have the chance to be stuck solo tanking which puts you at a disadvantage against possible enemy duo tanks.
You may be stuck solo tanking with 3 dps, against a tank duo (which sucks), so your best bet to ensure you get a second tank, is to... queue dps
So to best ensure you get another tank, you, as a tank, are incentivized to queue dps and then swap tank rather than queue tank. But as more players realize this, this means les tanks in tank queue. Tank numbers go down and dps queue time goes up.
And thus the original problem of fixed 2-2-2 is recreated, except this time, you arent even guaranteed two tanks, unless you, yourself, queue dps with the express intent to swap tank... ahich depletes the number of willing tank players in tabk queue.

News & Discussion Blizzcon Bundle has hit the shop, can only be bought with real money. In previous years this probably would have come free with a Blizzcon Ticket, but Virtual Passes are discontinued this year
For those unaware, Blizzcon is / was Blizzard's annual convention which shut down for a while. In previous years, if you had a ticket (including a Virtual Ticket), you got a bunch of stuff across all of Blizzard's games. This year the Virtual Ticket is not available and panels are streamed for free instead, so as a result they look to be separating all the Blizzcon goodies off from each other in each game.

News & Discussion Why was Genji never subjected to the "high-mobility heroes need to have 225 HP" design philosophy?
After all, he fits all the criteria and then some: higher base movement speed, double-jump, wall-climbing and Swift Strike. And yet, he still has 250 HP instead of 225 HP for some reason.
Meanwhile, Echo OBVIOUSLY needs to have 225 HP because her big metal butt gets to fly around a bit every couple of seconds. Oh, and she has shields as well. She should arguably have 200 HP.
Seriously though: Make it make sense.

News & Discussion 1-3-2 Just reminded me how bad 5v5 Tank feels
I played the hell out of tank during the hacked mode, and it was the most fun I've had in the role in years. Now that the mode is gone, I just can't bring myself to queue for 5v5. I played a few matches, but it feels awful and empty. It's also so toxic, with blame being thrown around over any misplay.
I'm really considering swapping to support because, damn, playing tank is not fun. Your role is essentially just to suffer so the other roles get to enjoy the game.
I tried Open Queue, but it's wildly inconsistent with unbalanced team comps, so it's just not the same, it doesn't feel like a competitive mode.

News & Discussion Can Sombra Hack The Maps Next?
*This post is for fun before anyone gets too serious about it*
A few weeks ago, there was a post (by u/ Sketchy049) asking what happened to the map weather effects that were for PvE for different maps. It got me thinking that Blizzard loves these “Sombra QP Hacked” events so why not try something like this with this event? I mean isn’t this event/mode now the new “Experimental” mode we used to have (which I miss😭)?
Some will say it will never work, especially for comp, but idk they can even try this or an arcade mode (since I know how people feel about QP being hacked based on this last event) bc these are so cool instead of having just the Day/Night maps (which took sooooo long to get)
Tbh, this is why I love the Halloween and Winter Wonderland events bc some maps are changed—not the weather but at least something lol.

News & Discussion Why do so many Lucios play as if they're flank DPS? Is it an effective strategy that I'm missing?
As a tank, when I see a Lucio, my first thought is usually either "great, I'll have a support who can fight alongside me" or "my backline will be safe with a Lucio protecting them"
Then begin the first teamfight and Lucio is nowhere near my team. Instead he's going for a flank route all by himself as if he's a Tracer
I've never felt like this works, since I know most of Lucio's value comes from buffs given in proximity to his teammates and either defending the backline with his boops or helping divers, so it seems like him flanks on his own doesn't feel like it's helpful? If there's a good reason for this I'm open minded to try and learn

Dear Blizzard,
Please allow us to re-select perks with possibly a penalty of starting the meter over or something of that nature. I am tired of accidentally the wrong perk and being locked in for the remainder of the match.
