Hello, gamers of Hive. I hope you all are doing well.
Today, I will share a game of wits at Overwatch 2 in my second account. This was a competitive game, ranked, probably at, Platinum. My team somehow won this amazing victory despite lagging behind their troops. This game captures my best performance at tanking as I smashed my kill count record while my overall stats remained similar.
Without further ado, let's begin!
The Map And Rank
The map is at King's Row and the rank is Placements. This map is pretty straightforward with 1 major intersection area where a couple of routes are made to counter from either side should a choke point be established.
I recognize only 1 player in this lobby, my teammate Smartypants. He is a generally good player and I know for a fact that he is somewhere in the gold and platinum leagues. So, I surmised that it is a plat lobby.
The first round took us approximately 7 minutes to complete. They put up a good resistance. I had the highest kill in the lobby with the second lowest amount of deaths; I also mitigated higher damage than my rival.
The second round lasted for 5 minutes. Somehow, they broke through our defenses. My death count skyrocketed to 7 times in one round and my overall damage was significantly lower than their tank's which was not a good performance for us.
However, the damage mitigated was significantly higher than his. The real place we were lagging was our healing. Their overall healing was over 27k while ours was at 17k. A whopping difference of 10k healing.
We somehow managed to break their cohesive play and captured the payload in the final 20 seconds. Here, you can also see that their time to capture is more than 2 minutes, meaning they are guaranteed to have ultimate twice. So, we had to play it safe and hard.
We pushed it to their spawn point while holding onto the overtime time. They managed to eliminate us after bringing me down. Thanks to the lack of healing, it was made possible.
My stats at the end of the round soared to 35 kills and did an overall of 15k damage while he had 18k damage with 38 kills. I had a 7k damage mitigation difference with their tank.
The healing department also had a boost. We had about 22k healing while he had about 25k healing.
In this round, we knew that they would capture the point. The main thing to do here is to hold them in the thin route and make it a choke point for them. We planned to kill one of their units. That way, their entire stack structure would fall, and they would have to regroup, which kills time. Eventually, we eliminated their entire squad with consecutive ultimate moves and won the game.
My overall stats were higher than their tank's making it my highest stats ever achieved, but my kill count and damage were significantly lower. Our healing and damage dealt by DPS were kind of low compared to theirs. Yet, our plan succeeded 100%.
