Managed by this point to get some time in with everyone, but Mercy is still far and away the one I play as the most.
I'm not so fast-twitch shooter as I used to be, so it's good to help support those that are. Lucio's a blast as well, both with the passive heal and the speed boost, but Mercy's the closest I have to a main. After her it's probably Reinhardt and Pharah.
Honestly though, there are only like three characters I haven't been able to have some fun with. And I probably just need to watch some videos and try again with them.
My biggest disappointment is simply my lousy luck with loot boxes. Level 24 at the moment and I bought 5 other crates as well for the hell of it, and of those 29 boxes I still haven't had a single legendary skin so far and 80% of the time it's been sprays.

I've finally wrapped my head around how to play Symmetra, and she's now my go-to character for games where my team's on the defense.

Lord have MERCY~! 14 resurrections, with three of them being for 4 players+ - 2 deaths despite taking 40% of the entire team's damage. Yeah, I rock as Mercy.

I'll be getting a PS4 and this game, along with others this weekend. All I'll be waiting on then is the TV series/movie. And there better damn well be one, or I'll be slightly annoyed and then continue playing the game.

Maybe I'm just awful at him, but I find him incredibly hard to get a kill with and I often end up flat on my face. Well,winston is a little harde and very dependent on the other team comp. Winston against a Genji/Symmetra/Widow and even hanzo,you will have no sweat But against a roadhog or a soldier 76(he can easily out-dps you in a straight fight) you get your as busted.It is more a case of teamplay and knowing your target. Overwatch is neat like that. Every character has a counter and the game encourages you to swap characters to adapt to new strategies and team comps.

I'm trying right now to work out a solid way around Tracer. Teams with Tracer on them are my kryptonite.

Winston is a pretty good Tracer counter.

Winston is a pretty good Tracer counter. Which makes it a shame that I really suck with Winston. So far I'm bouncing back and forth between Pharah and Genji on offense, and Symmetra or D.Va on defense.

Just have Tracer stunned and you can basically kill her in one or two shots.

I prefer McCree's flashbang to Roadhog's hook because you can afford to be a little less accurate with them. Also good for stopping a Reaper in Wraith form.

I've been meaning to play around with McCree, but he feels like a dude you have to be DEADLY accurate with, while with Pharah, I can play around with splash damage.

I've found Junkrat works really well against Tracer. They always manage to dash into my trap, and then a couple of grenades or a mine, and they're dead.
Speaking of Tracer, I was playing an extremely organised team today that was wiping the floor with us. They had a Bastion and a Reindhart on the payload, with a Mercy and Lucio healing them. Anyway, I switched to Tracer and caused absolute chaos from behind them, and we ended up winning. I bet they were raging.
