The fact that this kind of thing works is what I love about overwatch...

[@KurooTheEditor]

+Muselk cool

[@haymi5619]

Respond?

[@MKTH3ORY]

+Muselk i would whoop that ass with genji i blocked so many ults with genji against bastion

[@_Calcutta]

Nice video Muselk!

[@legendofthecommentsection6513]

NOTICE ME

[@Nyghtking]

Muselk, father of weird ass strategies that people will begin using in games.

[@FyruHawk]

such truthfulneth ofeth truths

[@lr7452]

+Nyghtking if only I had the most important part...friends...and the actual game

[@unclekanethetiberiummain1994]

[@jacobdelisle601]

+Meep Moop I KNEW YOU'D BE HERE

[@unclekanethetiberiummain1994]

Jacob Delisle We all knew

[@samtraji1]

i think surprise bastion works only once, the second time its not surprise bastion, just rise bastion...

[@waffielz3106]

i'm gonna "raise" my bastion,if you know what i mean i'll leave

[@samtraji1]

thx for the lession ;)

[@samtraji1]

wait. rise or raise? and why? explain me english speaking dude

[@waffielz3106]

*runs away* whoopwhoopwhoopwhoopwhoopwhoopwhoopwhoop

[@Wordsman]

+Samuel Trajano i would say peek-a-boo bastion, but thats me

[@inblooks]

make your entire team go lucio. nobody will die. either that, or everyone is now sanic

[@BlueDavrial]

+Awesomebrostudios Unfortunately Lucio's effects dont stack.

[@BlueDavrial]

***** Yeah but what the original commenter was talking about isnt possible

[@inblooks]

awww

[@gaze2156]

+Awesomebrostudios Assuming Lucio's healing stacks additively, six Lucios would result in 75 hit points per second if you all stayed together, going up to 240 hit points per second depending how many of you Amped it Up at the same time. If his speed boost stacked, which I'm not sure if it does, you and your team would move at 7.8x normal move speed if all of you were on the speed aura, going up to 12.6x faster if all of you Amped it Up.

[@BlueDavrial]

Ruger Manzer Neither his healing nor his speed stacks

[@ScTiger1311]

Instead of having unusual hats, this game has unusual strats. Also, this, but with 3 bastions.

[@tylerbree9093]

FEAR MY UNUSUAL STRATS YOU STRATLESS NOOBS

[@SnowCappedStudios]

intro clip= bastion + mei Literally every single type of cancer

[@kopfjager6833]

+Meep Moop

[@justinrogando3223]

+kopfjager68

[@arblo4552]

+kopfjager68 i love cance

[@NoahKapoa]

+gizmod Naw Mei's not really cancer easy to take out, if you want cancer take phara, and bastion

[@ducc3430]

+TacoBellHeaven what's wrong with phara? bastion is so cancer though.

[@ACFan120]

This is why damage falloff is important in TF2.

[@kassiekitsune189]

+ACFan120 it's also why shit has limited range in Paladins.

[@Shade1703]

there is damage falloff but bastion is just op

[@Connorses]

I think the key to this strat is to ensure that Mei is doing something helpful in between Bastion-lifting walls.

[@ithirealgenshin]

Hey, at least you don't have 6 Bastions in sentry mode camping your spawn.

[@ConvoBreaker]

If Tava believes in you, then it won't work.

[@datpolakmike]

i hereby dub this strategy..... MEISTURBASTION

[@Solarjolt]

+datpolakmike NO! Star_ needs to be in the video to be MeiSterBastion

[@mcgoodrexeturer]

+SOLARJOLT it could also mean as in boostmeister

[@loluntilmypie]

I was hoping to see a Genji player show up and absolutely destroy him.

[@TheSonicShoe]

wasn't this preemptively nerfed? you guys tried this in another vid, and it just froze bastion. did they remove that to avoid griefing?

[@tostie3110]

I love how two characters can make something incredible like that.

[@axiom6031]

Bastion and Mei Scrubby alone Almost unnerving together.

[@rebecon]

Notification squad assemble.

[@colonelsanders7238]

yay

[@tribrothers8848]

Whoo

[@gaze2156]

Muselk. Get Tava, have him be Reinhardt, and you be Roadhog. Get on the same team, and hook an enemy tank as Tava charges away with them. You won't be disappointed.

[@yippaindahood2642]

+Ruger Manzer he already done that with a myth busters vid

[@izzuddinmnasir4884]

when u see Tava n Muselk= just expect the unexpected

[@GameWarrior121]

tava is like the best person to be friends with. mainly because he saves muselk in near death situations.

[@agghostman677]

name of this tean up should be "Cold Steel"

[@articforager5614]

yaaaas!

[@dankmaster4746]

what is a tean?

[@ba5sking]

I LOVED THIS hahahahaha this is the spirit of overwatch that keeps me coming back. well played

[@BreadBeardFGC]

Omfg... the beta is over and I have this serious itch to play more! FUCKS SAKE, WHY CAN'T THE 24TH COME SOONER?!

[@XILEXHD]

+HelloGamerz wasnt it the 29th?

[@BreadBeardFGC]

Felix Seidel I dunno if it WAS, but if you check the website it is currently due for the 24th.

[@XILEXHD]

ok

[@SystemOfFantasy]

i totally love this creativity, your strategies are so fun :D

[@opp_goblin]

I played this game myself, and I suggest a few strategies, throw people off the map with Lucio, Reinhart shield in front of bastion sentry, Reinhart shield in front of Widowmaker, Mercy damage boosts bastion while Reinhart shields Bastion, all tracers (CAN BE REALLY ANNOYING), and LTHER strategies u have already done. Tell me if u try any!

[@opp_goblin]

*other

Does Tava have a Channel?

[@yohanesalvin2281]

Yes.

[@campionedi1764]

dayum muselk, they were pissed. thats like every game. once u start going good, people wanna shut you down cause youre too good.

[@유사새벽형인간]

I got a penta with reaper ulti. And guess what. this fricken Bastion got the play of the game just by sitting and killing every people. Bastion you son of a mother and a father who dearly loves you

[@유사새벽형인간]

Jimothy Fucksmen Nah

[@drmikehuntphd7905]

[@iliaslarossi4689]

Nah

[@HostileMustache]

Zylbrad must be really proud of this.

[@tahabokhari6937]

Hey look another insane strategy. Maybe you should start a series called insane strategies where you test out insane sounding strategies and see if they actually work.

[@thewishingwell930]

And subs could suggest shit

[@maxhughes0]

I like how he proposed the bastion Idea at level 15 and it wasnt until level 19 probably a couple hours later, do they finally complete Muselks plan.

[@cielopachirisu929]

And ArraySeven says there's no creative ways to use Heroes :T.

[@DoomDragonRider]

+Cielo Pachirisu ArraySeven didn't even bother to try to learn how to use any other heroes than Zenyatta or Mercy, so his arguments are anything but legitimate.

[@TheIluminEYE]

+Cielo Pachirisu you deserve a cookie jar along with +DoomDragonRider

[@tudedude5793]

+DoomDragonRider Exactly m8, his gameplay was level 7 and below lmao

[@toaster9922]

+Cielo Pachirisu fuck array, man

[@iBloby]

1:13 LMAO BYE MEI

[@evan4292]

I miss Elliot’s old videos... am I the only one here?

[@Optimus97]

Make an "Is it OP" episode about Bastion. *PLEASE.*

[@DoomDragonRider]

Am I the only that didn't had much trouble against Bastion ? Again, I mostly played Widowmaker, so... I guess it's cancer against cancer =P

[@salmon3669minecraft]

+DoomDragonRider No same here. I killed him so many times with Reinhardt it's unbelievable.

[@annoyedzebra6362]

+DoomDragonRider Bastion's easily countered

[@ShadowPirateX]

Hell, I MAINED Bastion and still got countered plenty of times by either quick Tracers, sneaky Reapers, Widowmakers, Hanzos (friggin' dragons), Roadhogs and Zenyattas. Just gotta get Bastion when he isn't paying attention to you.

[@zura8879]

Bastion is a noobkiller really, he is easy to counter and only really works for the first few minutes of the game until the enemy realizes how to counter him.

[@hqrmony5051]

Genji deflect blade while a dumb Bastion shoots at you.

[@TheFluffyRock]

im glad you showed the fails too to let blizzard know DONT REMOVE THIS because it can be beat lol. its so funny

[@Chaserletspla]

Beta is over, I love overwatch ;)

[@trashboat2165]

I was able to play it on the day it was supposed to close

[@U.Inferno]

Bastion Counter 101: Use Genji Deflect. Shoot over walls as Junkrat Hanzo and Widow headshots. Oh... And possibly the glowing blue WEAKSPOT!

[@sirvinyl3691]

+U1timate1nferno funny thing is, the weakspot isnt that known it seems.

[@Vsolid]

+U1timate1nferno Sorry but most OverWatch players can't learn to counter classes or read

[@LSCrazyCabCo]

*JACK IN THE BOX MUSIC

[@Dazeencraft]

Mei + Bastiodon Overwatch eSport strat confirmed.

[@sohrabtheimpaler54]

your friend always sounds so BORED

[@thomaswright3722]

So true :/

[@thevisionary2323]

Sohrabtheimpaler I think he just has a monotone voice. Maybe more of a stoic guy?

[@jakku1110]

Sohrabtheimpaler He sounds depressed

[@Skullhawk13]

Bastion is one of those underpowered on their own, amazing with proper teamsupport characters. On his own his weakness's just leave him sniped or charged or shot, but proper team support leaves him protected, and sometimes even mobile. That being said, he's a noobwrecker, people go reaper and run into the bullets, then whine about his damage when they don't have ANY of his counters on their team.

[@byghostlight0]

not sure anyone who can kill a whole team with just one clip can be classed as underpowered. I wouldnt have a problem with him if he has less bullets in. in the last two days alone saw 9 POTG where he killed pretty the whole team and still have ammo left.

[@Skullhawk13]

byghostlight0 You aren't supposed to be able to stand up to his bullets. That's sorta his job is to do massive amounts of damage. It's like the heavy in tf2, but less mobile. You are meant to flank him and take advantage of his immobility and extra weakspots. If he is successfuly shooting at you you are fighting him wrong and deserve to die. The only thing about him that's unbalanced is his ult.

[@byghostlight0]

so if you have two in the same square with only a bottle neck only entrance, with two Torbjorn turrets completing the four corners, all with their backs to the corners. how exactly do you flank them? And yes I know who counters what but nothing really counters mass turret/Bastion cheese. They are all easy in single mode, hell even if their are two but the way they are being used now is nothing short of trolling and extremely lame. I dont have a problem with his damage I have a problem that in a single clip he can kill a whole team, and that isnt even his ultimate. thats overpowered. the single best games I have have had so far didnt have turrets. they were fast paced, exciting, interesting, challenging and went down to the wire and not in a "oh look they have turren-DEAD" four Torbs type of way

[@Skullhawk13]

byghostlight0 I've never encountered this mass turret spawn, but I'll agree that any given hero should be limited to two per team by default.

[@jonathan5371]

+Skullhawk13 Limit how many characters you can have? You clearly have not played on a team of six of one character. It's really fun.

[@RealityMasterRogue]

Hey muselk, what is your least favorite hero in overwatch? why?

[@LOADINGNEO]

+RealityMasterRogue tracer cuz aids

[@bena7869]

actually its character, heroes is officially patented by valve for dota, duh.

[@DandyDaddy]

+420 hi muselk

[@Comedy_Logic]

+RealityMasterRogue im not muselk but my least favorite is winston, he is slow moving, i suck with his primary, and his special (rage mode) it just feels pointless, but i think all characters are awesome i just dont like to play as a few

[@thessop9439]

+Moldy Croissant What?

[@MJoodle]

All the strats work,that torbjorn and may strat worked perfectly well

[@thesevgf8569]

Who is this Zylbrad ripoff?

[@unnoticeable8452]

T.V.G.F basselk not bradstion

[@thesevgf8569]

Dat Weeb hmm

[@bonsaimudturtle9540]

i just can't wait for seeing all the people who try this ingame it always makes me laugh when muselk makes a tf2 video and when i play there are so many people doing the same strategy :)

[@secpendragon9760]

That opening scene is also what every "Surprise Bastion" victim is thinking as they get melted by a gatling gun

[@munks4548]

Bastion = TF2 Pyro Everyone complaining about an "overpowered class." Granted that some are better than others, every class can both counter an be countered by a class. Sneaking up on bastion is basically an insta kill when he is in sentry mode. It is also possible easily kill him with a long range Zenyatta, Hanzo, or Widowmaker. Basically the same thing for the Pyro. All you need to do is keep distance and be one step ahead.

[@drmikehuntphd7905]

stfu

[@gaycob8555]

Walking up behind often isn't enough, as the player can turn the full 360 instantly and get the headshot. All the while your still examining what part might be his head

[@anthonytelevantos4185]

+Munks Munks or just use genji

[@Darby7]

please don't stop playing Overwatch Muselk, the game hasnt even come out and i have already found my favourite streamer :)

[@MrJsintic]

We had 6 symetra's all set in a different area of the map. The enemy was SCARED to walk into any room. It was hilarious

[@crazyjoe909]

i wish you showed the killcam... must been looking hilarious from the other perspective! =P

[@swagmaster9eleven]

Bastion is by far my favorite class. It's almost all I played during the Beta.

[@tidxbit63]

hey Elliot did you know you can blast jump as Bastion when in tank forum, that's how you can get up to and insane spots without using a mei's help, I found this trick when in tank form and shot a wall knocking Myself Away, it's very useful when you learn how to use it

[@darthgiorgi4990]

+Tid X biT Does it damage you a lot?

[@IsaVarg]

The main issue with ice-walling Bastion is that Bastion's dps drops too far at a distance. It's really only useful if you're behind a wall where you can attack at close range.

[@wesleylance8221]

"Overwatch: Your wallet is telling you no, but your mind and body is telling you yes"

[@troy-vw7cl]

This is pure amazing :3

[@cameronallan5205]

Tava sounds like he's done with you're shenanigans lol

[@davidtan9319]

This Bastion strategy is awesome! And muselk is level 115 already? That's insane!

[@ajshpet]

This is a great vid. Your hilarious content actually helped me out a lot in my times of stress and I always loved the way you say "bye-bye" at the end of each video. I love you bro :D

[@battleverdun1914]

You should make a series called ridiculous strats

[@FlexCloud]

Wow, i started using the song you're using in this intro for my youtube intro because i thought you changed songs but now you use this one for like every video.

[@JimBimBum]

even when you find a strategy, the game is so balanced you can still be countered no matter what

[@DedleySmedley]

Pair that with any of the shield characters and you could take it to the next level.

[@blackdome98]

Tava is just so chill about everything

[@blackdome98]

wow, pun not intended

[@jaydenglover3858]

Watching muselk play overwatch while I play overwatch overwatchseption I love it

[@dpsktmdbzkxk]

man I wish I had someone like Muselk with me when I play these co-op games.

[@mathybrain8]

I thought this strat wasn't working a few weeks ago. I remember Bastion getting lifted and frozen. I also remember Torbjӧrn not being able to build sentries on Mei's ice walls.

[@facelessmoon8105]

YOU RAISE ME UP SO I CAN STAND ON MOUNTAINS

[@HardcoreK1llar]

If you see crazy starts, you KNOW it's Muselk.

[@lukehoward3087]

Muselk has fallen to the darkside... He's a bastion player now. There's no helping him now.

[@patricknewlands5477]

No one expects the Tava-Muselk Mei-Bastion!

[@Rockhard1492]

5:30 that Pharah just had enough of your shit. :VVV

[@brentramsten249]

surprise bastion is best bastion. i set up in a spot no one expected, and i not only wiped out their entire team, but we bum rushed both capture points into victory. it was beautiful

[@jordanrodgers2049]

thank you muselk for releasing this video AFTER the open beta closed.

[@adamjung712]

In MVM try the Beggars bazooka maxed and max explosion resistance fly to the top of the map parachute then unload a ton of crit rockets Best part it you can dodge crit rockets with ease

[@Anthoandski]

Bastion: the hero that steal all the play of the game.

[@rens2998]

we need more crazy strats!!

[@TurtleGalaxies]

The best bastion strategy is to have a mercy damage boost you. It kills SO fast.

[@Martini0770]

This channel is slowley turning into Muselk the OverWatch FANATIC

[@Jer110]

tava is being like a dad to muselk "wanna go up again"

[@IamSpacedad]

It worked because it lets bastion basically play the game like a cover shooter when he's normally stuck in one place.

[@assukka]

Bastion is my favourite hero in the game because he takes immense skill and dedication to get good with him. Also he is not overpowered in the slightest. I'd say he's underpowered and he should be buffed.

[@nickville3980]

Why do people say he is so hard to counter? All you need is a long range hero or a genji.

[@assukka]

Nickville Bastion needs a hard counter. Sure Genji is good but Bastion can just ignore the 2 seconds of reflecting and start to shoot instantly after...

[@riegerick4084]

I checked your channel like 5s ago, and I was disappointed that there are no new videos for me to watch while eating. Well, as always, you are quick to deliver =D

[@FilipAaltonen]

Without that little voice in your head, you wouldn't be able to read this.

[@grantwallace1597]

Works when you're taking up 2 plays for the strat and the enemy team is paying 0% attention to the bastion stopping them every 15 seconds.

[@that1crane]

Ahh, the character that everybody plays and the character that gets play of the game by being a turret.

[@cole.r]

+That1Crane EVERY TIME they get POTG its just them sitting in sentry being healed by four support classes at once and just mowing down everyone.

[@djisbaws1290]

it's funny how Muselk is saying that it should not work, while it's actually a great strategy, because no one expects it and that the damage output is ridiculously high... so it SHOULD actually work and this is probably not the last time we've seen this strat.

[@demon-ev6xk]

Lol I like how tava sounds dead inside and Muselk sounds like hes on drugs xD

[@FeralCheryl]

>Calls other people bad >Plays bastion

[@SwordsOfAwesomeMC]

One high damage hero, one mercy, and four zaryas. The zaryas keep putting shields on the high damage guy while the mercy heals him while he kills everyone

[@GeneralProfessor]

As an Overwatch expert with over 10 hours of high level gameplay, let me tell you why Bastion is overpowered.

[@drewdeeds1268]

Underrated comment of the year. Although I still think he needs a slight damage nerf.

[@emperorromanov9035]

You don't have to reload when Bastion is in siege mode, I think it is faster when you deploy to recon mode and back to siege mode immediately.

[@wildfire7775]

Hey look another insane strategy. Maybe you should start a series called insane strategies where you test out insane sounding strategies and see if they actually work...... WINK WINK (NOT A COPY AND PASTE)

[@dragontamer1012]

Looks super copypasta to me.

[@that1catwithalongname147]

My birthday was when this video came out and I love your videos

[@cristhianmlr]

Muselk, promise one thing, and just ONE thing. When you make a Reaper guide or higlight video, PLEASE, use You Spin Me Round (Like a Record), song of Dead Or Alive.

[@morgdegidian7313]

Whats worse than a Bastion being babysat by his entire team? A Bastion being babysat by his entire team and then given the ability to ambush people. I hate that robot.
