I played Mauga one time and my wuyang bubbled me and got mad I ran into the enemy team.

Now to be fair... I was half health and I think he gave me that buble to save me. But I really felt like a bowling ball for a few seconds.

u/New_Mousse4257 4h ago

I mean.. the bubble gives you a ton of health and a knockdown so idk what he expected

Personally I wouldn't have been mad even if you were at half health cuz the ring would've healed you passively while you were bubbled, and you running into the enemy team would've given a chance of converting [losing our tank] to [knocking down the whole enemy team]

u/Creepystrainz 3h ago

Mauga turning into a human bowling ball was probably not the intentioned wuyang strategy πŸ˜‚

u/Blaky039 Sigma 34m ago

Wuyang ult is like nano. You have to dive into their team it doesn't matter if it's a good play or not, you just have to. Let ana/wuyang know you tried.

u/Outrageous_Gas7842 4h ago

Immaculately satisfying

u/New_Mousse4257 4h ago

I keep rewatching it on repeat 😭 I'll be chasing this high for the next weeks lol

u/SyrusG 5h ago edited 2h ago

Okay see this clip is exactly why we need to start looking at teammate cooldowns when we ult them. Your Orisa just used their only movement ability and then the one ability they have that slows them down (if they didn't take the perk). It's like seeing a tracer recall and going, "yeah the tide should be w u rn big dawg". We gotta look for these things or at least call them out before it's done

How do you gigabrains keep track of all that in the action plus your own stuff plus who's alive and where plus ults plus the objective plus whatever my noob brain forgot about

u/maresayshi 29m ago

you don’t. you prioritize information based on what you are actually trying to do

u/-justiciar- 8m ago

it’s a skill

u/A_S_Levin Phara 5h ago

Orisa did well to make the most of it tbh.

Most wuyang ults (and even a lot of nanos) I see, people just use it as a way to escape sticky situations. Like they take the free health and run away lol

u/mccainjames11 Junker Queen 4h ago

It’s so frustrating, just push in! If I’m tiding you I’m probably healing you too

u/BlueGlace_ Lesbian Time Jumper 2h ago

Shi bro if I'm getting ulted by Wuyang I don't care how squishy I am I'm diving their backline

u/rip-droptire Doomfist 12m ago

As a doom main I feel that. 50 hp without my ult? As soon as I hear "The tide is with you!" all my cooldowns are getting used in the direction of the nearest enemy support

u/A_S_Levin Phara 4h ago

Legit bro even in diamond people often just run away with it.

Tbf often the wuyang doesn't time it that well. Even in this clip they got lucky (maybe it was calculated idk) with orisa having her own ult to follow up with

u/New_Mousse4257 4h ago

Absolutely, the Orisa is the mvp of the play, especially with how they timed their ult

u/A_S_Levin Phara 4h ago

Tbf a lot of support ults are gonna be like that haha.

You still enabled that play so def deserve credit

u/Tmb0593 1h ago

Same thing I've noticed when I nano someone with granny. 9/10, the person heads to our backline and stands there till it's over. Wonder if they're scared of the pressure...

u/tamergecko 34m ago

Usually if a person gets nano/bubble and they dont rush in Its because they got ulted after they used their CDs so they have nothing to rush in with. Or the enemies are so grouped together or they have most of the scary CDs that even with the additional survivability they arent confident they'd live going in.

u/Sideview_play 2h ago

Somehow tanks will always hide during the ult ( and then be aggressive After????). But if you accidentally put it on another support they say "understood" and dash in at the enemy πŸ˜‚

u/New_Mousse4257 2h ago

I have no original experience in my life, everything I've lived has been experienced by someone else on earth also πŸ˜‚

u/Ailwynn29 2h ago

It's a weird kind of exciting. Few weeks ago there was this d'mon who seemed really excited whenever I'd use the "ult's ready" voiceline. She was so ready to jump into the enemy team and destroy them all. And to be fair to her, she did that every time. And yes, I will remember it for a while, it was so cute. Man, I love teamwork in my team-based gameΒ 

u/New_Mousse4257 2h ago

Yes I love team plays too, I find it so much more satisfying than solo quad kills πŸ”₯

u/dedicated-pedestrian 3h ago

This gives me a dastardly idea for asking for Wuyang ult so I can TP myself or someone else into the enemy team as Symmetra

u/New_Mousse4257 3h ago

His kit is kinda good ngl, it's got potential

It's just that his character is so generic that most people don't even know what he does 😭

u/dedicated-pedestrian 2h ago

They did legit drop the ball on his writing. They could have leaned harder into the disparity between his earnestness and his newness/lack of confidence and made a more compelling hero

whoa, i dont even know who wayguman is.

u/New_Mousse4257 2h ago

You mean wagyuman? He's a butcher living in the next town 😭

u/gcdhhbcghbv 44m ago

I’m in plat and I get paired with teammates who back up when they get ulted by wuyang, even though they now have 500 HP.

How am I supposed to get out of plat.

u/New_Mousse4257 17m ago

That's what I'm saying man, nobody knows what Wuyang even does 😭

u/FrismFrasm It's Britney bitch 37m ago

As someone who plays a shitload of Juno I feel similar pains.

No way to force your team to clear out of a room quicker than to drop a Juno beam into it. I swear people will willingly run towards a Dva bomb or dive into Torb lava in sheer panic just to make sure the friendly Juno beam doesn't tickle a square millimeter of their toe as they pass by.

u/New_Mousse4257 18m ago

I feel this too much as I'm currently learning to play her too 😭

u/petethecat_ 5h ago

Trim your clips

u/A_S_Levin Phara 5h ago

Trim your pits.

The clip isnt even a minute long bro. Is ur attention span that cooked? T-T

u/abcdefghijew 1h ago

Nothing interesting happens before or after the ultimate. I dont see why this is a hot take.

u/Big-Amir 5h ago

Ah i see. You keep replying to everyone who talks about it.

u/A_S_Levin Phara 4h ago

Pot calling the kettle black mate? Is there a limit in place I didnt hear about?

u/Big-Amir 4h ago

Google

u/New_Mousse4257 4h ago

I trimmed it, it's just 47 seconds of the 6h a day you spend on reddit

u/LivingstonPerry Hazard 2h ago

skip halfway thru? not a big deal, bud.

u/BarnacleAwkward4801 2h ago

Do you realize immediately it's too long because I dont

u/Captaln_Chunk 1h ago

have someone else watch it first and let you know to skip some, its not a big deal bud.

u/dann97 2h ago

I love pairing it with my duo who plays JQ/reaper/shion

u/framingXjake 1h ago

The first time I got wu bubbled I didn't know what it did or what to do ngl. I panicked and backed up like wtf is happening, then looked at my Wuyang just staring at me disappointingly lol. But tbf I was playing Domina, attempting to poke from high ground, and we were down both DPS. Not saying Dom can't make use of that ult but even if I knew how to use it in that moment, the timing was pretty bad. What are we gonna do 3v5 after I use it? Especially against a Rein and Junk. I don't wanna be close range against all that

u/New_Mousse4257 1h ago

Yea your wuyang was just bad, Doom would've appreciated the bubble so much more

u/framingXjake 1h ago

Ah there was no doom, I was Domina and it was 5v5. I actually think Domina can brawl pretty well close range but to a lesser extent against an aggressive Rein and definitely not against a Junkrat. The strat in my situation would've been to hold bubble until the DPS got back, jump down and stun everyone with it, then immediately take out Junk. At least then we could've taken the 5v4 brawl without Junk bombing us to death.

u/New_Mousse4257 1h ago

My bad, somehow I read "Dom" as "Doom" πŸ˜…

But yea, not much you can do in that case.. especially since Rein can just shield up and block the knockdown. But yea if you're bubbled while playing domina and while both your DPSs were out, it's definitely the Wuyang's fault for misusing his ult.

I believe you did the right thing by backing off, instead of rushing face to face against a rein and junkrat, and risk dying while your DPSs were on their way back. Better to waste the Wuyang's ult than ruin the next 3 minutes

u/fosheezie220 33m ago

6v6, nice!

u/therealNerdMuffin It was I who let the dogs out 4h ago

I think I would've came if I was that Orisa

u/dedicated-pedestrian 3h ago

What do you think knocked everyone down

u/therealNerdMuffin It was I who let the dogs out 2h ago

Go! The coom is with you!

u/New_Mousse4257 3h ago

Wasted 35 sec watching nothing till you ulted

u/A_S_Levin Phara 5h ago

Idk bro I appreciated seeing the lead up, context and judging the decision making of others

No one forced you to watch a... *checks* 49 second vid...

u/Big-Amir 5h ago

Alright. Time to post a 5 min clip of myself tomorrow to show a 1 tap i did at 04:11. Hope im not forcing anyone

u/A_S_Levin Phara 4h ago

Go for it. <1min I'll sit n wait. Closer to 5mins n I'll skip through it, probs just watching the one team fight leading up to it. Not a fkn idiot bro, 1min of my life to see a fight play out is fuckall.

Kinda taking the piss with this comment tho, aren't ya

u/Big-Amir 4h ago

Ai

u/A_S_Levin Phara 4h ago

Your mums AI bro.

You would've spent more time replying to my comments than you would've watching OPs clip. So do u even value your time dawg?

Grim reapers watchin that sand drizzle through the hourglass. Better get a move on boy!

You see players this competent in every 5v5 game

It's time to rank up your gaming experience OP

u/New_Mousse4257 2h ago

Yes there are a lot of good players in qp, but not nearly as many players who know what to do when wuyang uses his ult on them

u/Vhure Master 4h ago

your ult actively did nothing.

u/New_Mousse4257 3h ago

It gave the Orisa the giga health to survive using their ult in the middle of the whole enemy team. And the knockdown guaranteed that none of them were able to escape

u/Outrageous_Gas7842 3h ago

The overhealth for Orisa + aoe stun and damage definitely helped
