This was POTG, but without the "Hello there!" at the beginning, and I wanted to add that in because I could.

The real attraction is the Junkrat shot, of course.

i would like if i may to present to you the best widowmaker play of the game ever

i must stress

this actually was play of the game

and, and, and i should add

against this team

we lost.

(i was on a terrible team. basically tracer and i knew how to play and nobody else seemed to know how the game worked. like, at all. we actually won a few and it was all me and tracer carding.)

(and less stupid there are reasons i am top 1% gamewide in kills with widowmaker mines, and this actually is kind of a potg for my mine placement. it's just also intensely stupid! (⌒▽⌒) )

solarbird: (widow)

Coming around that corner, I was looking for enemy Widowmaker, who was quite good. Instead... Junkrat? Well, fine I'll take the shot either way, but such a disappointment. (⌒▽⌒)

The push to the second point - which starts at 2:30, and the video is already cued there - was really a lot of fun. I just wasn't having any more of Bastion's bullshit.

(I shot better later, though really, I was shooting pretty well here - particularly for a warmup game. Literally first game of the day. Particularly the sequence that ends up Play of the Game, against Mercy, Tracer, and Orisa, in rapid succession.)

As losses go, this was very pleasant. Less so as the game went on and they all realised, "all we have to do is kill the Widowmaker and we win," but still. Shot percentage reasonable, crit count rather nice, killed half their team in rapid order a couple of times - generally, as I said, pleasant, even if we lost.

12 crits in 6.2 minutes, working out to 19.4 crits/10 minutes, which is basic unit for record keeping. And that's quite nice, if I say so myself.

Orisa!

I am not a big Orisa player, like at all, even though I do OF COURSE adore the best pony. But I will give her a go occasionally, particularly at the Well in Illios.

Most people these days, they see an Orisa on the point there, they stay back. But apparently, enemy team didn't know about this green orb thing she has, and I had so many environmental kills omg.

It was hilarious, and so - obviously - I had to share it.

solarbird: (widow)

The first three of these kills were Play of the Game. Ingrates didn't even vote for me when we lost, but it was clearly not my fault.

(Placements are a trainwreck. Silver, here I come!)

[shorter POTG clip]

solarbird: (widow)

Let's start the game with play of the game, shall we?

(They did not recover from that. It was delightful.)

solarbird: (widow)

Just keep hoppin', Bastion. That'll save you. For sure.

solarbird: justice rains on your face (pharah)

You don't see a lot of quad-kills with Pharah without barrage involved, so I was really quite happy with this. It was one of those teams that Mercy and I couldn't drag to a victory no matter what we did, but that didn't stop me from doing.

solarbird: (tracer)

The last three of these kills were POTG, but the POTG video didn't capture all of it, so I grabbed the longer form.

shameful!

Punching Bastion to death is always the best. Particularly as Widowmaker.

solarbird: (tracer)

One, Four, One.

The "four" was POTG. The rest weren't included, hence this clip. But it's been a long time since I got a quad with a pulse bomb.

(potg version)

solarbird: (widow)

That 76 had been a little bit of a problem, until, then, he wasn't.

Since the changes I posted about, I'm shooting a pretty consistent 15-20 points better than before, and never worse, under any game circumstances. I've shot over 80% multiple games and only shot below my old average twice, both times, in take-any-shot-because-we're-being-overrun-so-badly games. I still have a way to go in figuring out all the new (and so much better) math, but... it's a good trend.

eeeeeeee I hardly ever get POTG as brigette! But I did here! ♥

solarbird: (widow)

This was pretty much the only time we stopped them. I kept them stopped until they managed to kill me. After that, well, target one, and they cruised.

solarbird: justice rains on your face (pharah)

This team, I mean... this team. It was one of those who went way too far forward at every opportunity and yet wouldn't get on the point - we took it the first time because it was clear and I was the only one willing to set foot on it - and where I knew, as soon as we lost the point, we weren't taking it again. And I was wrong, but only because of this. (I also killed the fifth of six enemy team after this clip ends.)

After this, they knew who to keep down, and won easily. But at least I got POTG.

solarbird: (widow)

This was rather delightful. Unfortunately, after this, I was target number one and was the recipient of multiple solo-ults, and we lost. But it was still delightful.

In a later game I was opposite a Widowmaker I'd been playing with before, and she was beautifully brutal and the rest of her team was keeping me from getting to her, until I saw she was in a position I couldn't reach from where I was, but which I could target while in mid-air, and headshot her, and we took the first point.

Then I did it again, and she changed to Lúcio, and then Brigitte. I tried to say hello! But she wouldn't acknowledge me - except with her mace. (⌒▽⌒)

solarbird: (widow)

Right out the gate, I made a few impressions. IN THEIR HEADS.

(Mercy helped. ^_^ )

solarbird: (widow)

We lost, but I made 'em work for it.

Also, guess who finally finished placements? This spider! I finally have an SR again! 2112, which is apparently a funny number if you're into classic rock.
