Good players in Overwatch time their own cooldowns precisely. Professionals time the cooldowns of their opponents.
Every week, absurd, exciting, or simply funny moments happen in Overwatch that are often captured in a “Play of the Game.” We have searched social media and picked three special highlights for you. Enjoy our 3 “Play of the Game” moments of the week.
Every Reinhardt player probably knows this moment: the ult is ready, and you just wait for the golden moment to slam the entire enemy team to the ground with the hammer. But like so many before and after him, Jheuloh messed up the hammer strike and hit the shield of another Reinhardt. But how does one make up for this mistake? By simply getting a 4-fold kill afterward. Nothing easier than that.
Strategy and planning are the keys to success in Overwatch. But how can one plan the enemy resurrection by Mercy if you can’t start it before reaching the battlefield? About as Phluffy shows with D.Va. Thanks to Widowmaker’s extended vision, he can see Mercy approaching in advance and activates his mech just before the resurrection. What could have quickly become a game-changer is thus truly nipped in the bud.
The best “Play of the Game” moments don’t happen when you act perfectly yourself, but when the opponents make a crucial mistake. This was also the case for Winstony, who just wanted to stall time as Pharah on Ilios and was flying around the control point. Arrogant as the enemy team was, they wanted to bring the flying Egyptian down from the sky – a stupid idea.
Have you also experienced a particularly cool game scene that you captured on video? Then just send us a link to the video, and maybe you will find your clip again in this post next week!
Last week, we showed you the horror duo – the perfect combo of Mei and D.Va, a bit differently.
