Thanks for the review, Emongg. Much appreciated! Played a game today as Winston on Gibraltar, and already noticed improvements to the gameplay from following the advice! :) I do want clarify a few things though, cause obviously the description I wrote when submitting didn't quite get my point through: - I was not blaming my teammates at all for the loss. But I do realize in hindsight that it did actually sound that way from the way I worded my description when submitting the game, so my bad for that one. I mean yes, I did wish that they contested high ground a bit more than they did, but I probably should've taken more initiative on that and asked if they could play high ground with me. - My description of the game was mostly of the second round, because in the first round we got super snowballed like you said, and I think both me and my team just kinda panicked and had no idea what to do. And that was obviously exactly what it looked like too :) - In my description I was also trying to ask (in a very roundabout way) if I was in fact doing the right thing by staying on the Winston, considering the fact that my team obviously was playing mostly around the payload and not contesting high ground with me. I was considering going Zarya just to play with them and protect them from the D.va, but I felt like despite me not doing amazingly on Winston, I was at least pushing the enemy team off the high ground a lot of the time, where as Zarya is just pretty terrible on Gibraltar and mostly wouldn't have been able to contest it at all. But my conclusion from watching the review is that it can be fine playing like that, as long as I have the correct target priority and also fall back to reset/help my team more often. Also, I did NOT hear the Mercy ressing under me, otherwise I would have jumped down to kill her instead of the Kiriko. And yes, I was very aware that Kiriko was probably just gonna teleport away, but it was probably just a "me winton, me see enemy, me jump" kinda thing. In the end I'm glad I can serve as another example of what NOT to do when playing tank, haha. Definitely looking forward to keep improving and hopefully maybe get back to diamond again at some point.
@@I_am_a_cat_ don't be that guy. don't be the guy who's a jerk to someone who wrote a long comment just because you don't have the attention span to read it.
"me Winton, me see enemy, me jump" is a perfect description of my own Winton gameplay 😅 thank you for submitting and letting us learn alongside you! it takes a lot of courage to put yourself out there for critique and it also takes a long of courage to admit you didn't communicate as well as you could have. too many people will just blame other people for somehow not magically reading their mind to know what they meant. not enough people acknowledge sometimes they don't always say exactly what they mean. good luck on your climb!
@@smacc3968prob not but i was just saying what he said the comments would say for fun lol but i bet some people do only if the character is really strong maybe but easy to play
The best place to learn is ranked because you get punished for mistakes that usually you won’t be punished for in quick play. Plus you also need to learn how to work around a team in ranked as your hero which is also important but you can’t really do that in quick play when most people don’t even try or are are just refusing to do their roles job which can lead to bad habits formed. That’s my opinion tho
I only hate the ones who have no clue how to play Doom but just because they heard he is one of the best that they should and them we end up losing because they never played Doom before

I highly doubt he's going to read all of that. Just saying. He already did the review. Its done and over with.

Stop pushing and ulting below half hp and down in a teamfight. Just stahhhp
@@RantKid Yeah, that's obviously something I have to work on
As a fellow overwatch player I have ZERO target priority
it just comes with time and practice! no worries.
As a widow otp I just shoot whatever peaks me usually works out 😂
spam EVERYTHING
I get blamed for having to back out of a fight that I was going to win but would end up dying if I stayed
im the opposite instead, im like a bull with blinders
my friends: "which streamer is telling everyone to go doom and ball?"
me: :x
Okay? Good for you?
I main Ball and I finally got a compliment from an enemy. It felt good especially since they were Ana
2:40 lets say point is under the bridge, do you hold server room or do you hold high ground?
I'm silver and I'm tryna learn to improve
Can you please not tell people that dooms really good right now so that we don’t have dooms in our games learning how to play doom.
does people really learn Doomfist/any heroes in ranked?
@@smacc3968prob not but i was just saying what he said the comments would say for fun lol but i bet some people do only if the character is really strong maybe but easy to play
okie tytytyty
@@smacc3968they don't necessarily learn heroes. More like they hear they are good, pick them, and then get rolled and blame the teammates

That’s my opinion tho
Loved this video for target priority, something I really struggle with sometimes
hate when tanks counter swat counter swap counter swap and we never get an ult 😩
Emongg please dont promote Doomfist, we get a fair share of Doom players already 😂
I only hate the ones who have no clue how to play Doom but just because they heard he is one of the best that they should and them we end up losing because they never played Doom before
When he ulted to me that’s a good ult because he make them use two
Watching people ult when down in a team fight and below half hp hurts worse every time I see it. Wtf are these players thinking?😢
you have done this too. you're lying to yourself if you think you haven't. we've all done it.

Here is my helpful comment

I am leaving a comment
Does he like comments tho 🫣👀
???? Who cares???? Grow up.
@@I_am_a_cat_ Why are you so insufferable? 3 different comments threads is just you being an asshole for no reason. You grow up.
2:12 Spoiler: His first match became him (DF) vs Sombra, Cass, and Sigma before the end of the first round. It was a time. 🥲
