[7] Getting good at Overwatch: Gamesense

[@wallflower7016]

6 years later and still very helpful, learned a lot, i will watch this one again to get the concepts fit into my head

[@kabooplays9057]

You have a lot of good tips I really don't see anywhere else on youtube. This has already helped my tons, and I found you only today! Thanks again :9

[@MrMedal01]

What's the best heads out there on the market? I feel like my thinking speed's not enough, and I need more memory.

[@ioStux]

+Medal Internethulk is one of the more thoughtful players Id say.

[@MrMedal01]

Oh. I'm sorry. Next time I'll be making a joke, I'd wrap it in HTML tags so it'd be more obvious. Thanks for pointing me to the guy though, I'll go get his head as an upgrade.

[@ioStux]

Oh haha thats how you meant it oh god thats grim. My bad hahaha

[@adambousfield6000]

This convos hilarious

[@diavolo8732]

I learned a lot in this video. thank you very much.

[@revinznightcore7075]

A question to the Target Prioritization: Could you explain why DPS is a higher priority than healers/supports? Because everyone keeps saying that healers/supports are the higher priority Also, I love your vids! Keep up the good work man!

[@ioStux]

DPS die so fast that they can't get counterhealed, so you don't need to kill the support firsts like you have to when killing Tanks. Also Supports are no Threat. If the enemies don't have any Damage Output there is no way they can win, however if the enemies have no Supports but their McCree and Soldier are still alive a 4v6 comeback is still very possible. First you need to ensure that the enemies can't kill you, then you can kill the Healers. If Killing was slower in this Game then the supports would be more important, but DPS die so fast that the Supports dont have a chance to Heal them.

[@revinznightcore7075]

Alright, that makes sense! Thanks for the VERY fast reply! ^^

[@ioStux]

No Problem. So far the amount of questions I receive is very manageable so I focus on replying to everyone I get :) When more people start to comment It may become harder, but I hope to keep this up for as long as possible!

[@dispersed3190]

As a pharah main I always focus my biggest threats but a support with ult is gonna have to die.

[@cadeorama6415]

So your team can advance without being killed

[@toranksu2751]

Get the edge? but I already play reaper...

[@benhadaway3322]

Found your channel and have been binge watching your stuff. You really have great content. Could you expand on the game sense?

[@Eucliwood]

Your target prioritization at 8:36 leaves me a doubt, while it makes sense to me, as a flanker main I'm always focusing supports first so I assume your list focuses on a team perspective excluding flankers right? Thanks for uploading these btw

[@ioStux]

Yeah Zarya is still a Priority. It is true that she gets charge slower, but that doesn't make her any less of a Threat. Also its a hassle to kill others while there is a Zarya Alive deploying Shields. I am talking about a Full on Teamfight. Even as a flanker I would prioritize the DPS first. If you kill the DPS the supports don't have anyone they can heal, and the enemies lose their damage output so the rest of the fight is against headless chickens basically. Obviously you shouldnt shoot at someone being healed by Mercy, but If you see a McCree and a Support, killing McCree increases your chances of winning the fight by alot more than killing the Mercy. Thanks for watching :)

[@TheAlpha0014]

I really like this series, it helps a lot. I was a little confused in the target prioritizing part. If I'm playing Genji and there's a charged Zarya but also Ana and Lucio that are arguably easier for Genji to kill, shouldn't I kill them first? I thought that every role has different target priorities e.g. it's McCrees job to take care of Genjis and Tracers, Reaper should go for tanks, flankers for supports.

[@ioStux]

Oh no its not about whom you should kill always. It means the following: If there are 2 buttons in front of you, 1 of them kills Zarya, the other kills Zenyatta, you should press the Zarya one. If you don't have the Button for Zarya available (You just cant kill her) then of course you should go for Zenyatta :) So basically this Target Prioritization only works if you have the opportunity to kill whomever you want.

[@adrianbetteryou1]

I really appreciate your content. I have a question about when to Stall or to Dry push. STALL: The enemies have clearly the ult advantadge so you decide to play safe and poke to charge your ults while they gain nothing. DRY PUSH: The enemies have clearly the ult advantadge but you decide to engage to bait their ults so you have the advantadge next fight. I really dont know when to go for the Stall or for the Dry push.

[@ioStux]

N3 Essential Generally, you dry push when you need to Capture a point (anubis attack, first point hollywood, first point kings row) or when you are really close to a payload checkpoint. You stall when you have to defend. Kings Row A Attack? Dry Push. Kings Row A Defense? Stall. Basically ask yourself "Am I going to lose something because of dying?" When you need to attack a point you only need to win 1 Teamfight so dying isnt that big of a deal, on defense however, dying means that the enemies get the point, so you should stall and survive as long as possible. I hope that kinda explains it.

[@adrianbetteryou1]

Thank you very much!

[@maxrubin2284]

On paper, tracer's mobility is countered by a flash bang 💥 ... that is except when an actually good tracer baits out any cc ability (I.e. Roadhog hook, flashbang). Tracer is only countered if she is not aware of her weakness so she can't bait it out or playing mind games with the enemy.

[@inquisitorichijou883]

I usually have my Hands full keeping track of my own Team - as i usually Play healer - and therefore no time to make guesswork about what the enemy might do.

[@inquisitorichijou883]

Same goes for tracking ults and cooldowns. I can't juggle 11 characters in my mind all the time. I have to Focus on what's important; and as a healer, that's usually my own Team.

[@lord_loopii6821]

i have watched every video. it helpled me get to masters

[@ioStux]

Congrats!

[@scarecrowhobo]

really? time to sub and go on a marathon

[@yellowcactustvz4929]

can i have more specifications about the target priority? i am not sure because for example the tanks give you more ult charge and if you kill a rein you have winned the fight so... someone can help me? (with soldier 76)

[@shawmeck9323]

With regards to target prioritization, who should you target first as a DPS when dealing with a pharmacy (Phara with Mercy combo).

[@jasonwireman7471]

Ricardo Valls mercy

[@zora1797]

Whys tank 5th in the priority list tho?? If you kill their main tank they can potentially not be able to push and it gives you free ult charge since they're easy to hit

[@brunopsar]

hey! fist off all nice video! but can you make a bigger version of gamesense I don't mind at all! I would be very grateful for the video! and has you mentioned in the descripcion, you say gamesense is boring but i think that its very interesting! and ty for your help! peace!

[@threatprince]

question regarding target prioritization at 8 : 49 so ive noticed a lot of times when I kill the mercy first the she has enough time time to walk back and rez is this a target prioritization issue cause mercy could still rez when your fighting

[@jessedemuelan4947]

I can't afford personal coaching at the moment cause a rent boys life is too unpredictable so I love these so much!

[@TwilitSword]

Hey ioStux, what's the music you have playing in the background? It's really cool.

[@ioStux]

+TwilitSword i think its systek proxy, not sure =(

[@TwilitSword]

ioStux Coaching | Overwatch Yup! That's the one! Thanks a bunch.

Whats the music you put in these videos?

[@bryonnguyen3833]

Mercy with Rez? *laughs*

[@VesperArcade]

You sure Chip damage is the actual term? I thought it was trash damage. It's just funny because chip damage is a fighting game term for block damage.

[@ioStux]

Basically what I mean with "Chip Damage" is damage that is so low (for example Tracer at long range) that it can even be healed by a Lucio for example. Trash damage probably also fits. Basically damage that leads to no consequences :)

[@VesperArcade]

Alright. So let's say I have 50 energy and full ult charge with Zarya it would still be best to spam the enemy Rein shield or nothing at all until the engage in your opinion?

[@ioStux]

VesperArcade Yeah. Your Ult doesn't stay forever. If you waste half of your Ult destroying the Reinhardt shield your chances of getting a kill are alot lower. Better to just destroy it first and then ult.

[@VesperArcade]

Thanks for taking the time to answer.

[@adas2051]

Off topic, but what's the name of the background song?

[@ioStux]

Captain Panic! & Systek - Proxy

[@colemanchristy2770]

There are hard counters in Overwatch. If you don't believe me, look at how Symmetra counters Pharah.

[@yellowcactustvz4929]

seriously look at sombra doomfist

[@Giraffinator]

"Dry Pushing"

[@xXfsasXx]
