the soldier running directly into the orisa ult was an insane move

THEY'RE LEARNING LIKE A.I.

Sometimes I forget how funny Overwatch can be if you creative enough

[@username1660]

Same goes for the community, usually you get a bunch of sweats that'd bitch about those plays but the folks in the video took it in stride and a had a good laugh

[@rngsmiles3979]

Out of all of SaltyPhish's videos, I think this one had the highest ratio of "Holy shit, you can do that!?"s per minute we've seen thus far.

[@sendmeplantpics]

Also the one where Lewi gets placed in silver.

[@awfulpancakes]

@@sendmeplantpics which one is that

[@powermish2768]

“Escort the basketball” should be a new gamemode.

[@deolindaferreira5599]

It would be funny, And if it falls into a death zone. Like the pit or the side of the maps it spawns back on a check point

[@YeetyY3ET]

better than push maps

[@SaltyPhish]

You guys have no idea how difficult it was getting the ball there every time

[@alexanderwagner2580]

@@SaltyPhish Absolutely worth it, that's the best thing I've seen in ow2

[@deolindaferreira5599]

Honestly it was worth it in the end bc it was soo funny and gave us joy, Good job on the video @Salty Phish

[@tatuvarvemaa5314]

This reminds me of the old days of overwatch. Where you had people like muselk making videos like this (but instead it was putting symmetra turrets on the ball and carrying it to the enemy.

[@sendmeplantpics]

The real nerf Symmetra never recovered from. ):

[@kempolar9768]

Was it muselk that put the torb turret on the blizzard world shark?

[@tatuvarvemaa5314]

@@kempolar9768 I cant remember at all, but I have a vague feeling it was.

[@shirotheshiro1098]

Im not simping or anything but this is probably the best ow video I've seen in a while, it was so fun and reminded me of the goofy early ow1 era. thank you phish.

[@jonahblack6675]

perfectly summed up my thoughts

[@WetRatGaming]

Same

[@reagansido5823]

The greatest compliment you can get for a clever move is "I'm stealing that move." Like, you just inspired that person.

[@wayothefro3249]

Oh no, Blizzard is going to have to remove the basketballs for two weeks because of this.

[@ghoff9906]

Or Zarya

and still not fix it properly

the basketball glitch has been in ow for a while, it was on reddit too, but blizzard probably doesn't care haha

the basketball grav is definitely a competitive strat soon.

[@naturesfinest2408]

And gone just as fast

[@venomlightYT]

He will bring it to GM1

[@aguyontheinternet8436]

Unfortunately, when a team tried the Mei-Sym teleport trick awhile back, they got removed from the tourneyment for cheating soooo

[@AksentNethariaFilm]

1:11 the fact that they almost won the round with a forced C9

[@owen2376]

Honestly I hope they keep this in the game

[@TheLonelyBrit]

Pretty sure it was a thing in OW1 so I think they wouldn't bother taking it out.

[@nikithefrog428]

i dont think they could remove it without removing the basketball entirely

[@venomlightYT]

@@nikithefrog428 They could make it so it can't leave spawn. Resets when it hits the barrier

@@venomlightYT they wouldn't bother. It's been a thing since ow1.

Today I learned Zarya grav can be scarier than it already is

[@KoalaTeaGuy]

In 2016 it was the sym turret basketball. Glad to see we've evolved in 2022 😹

[@onidogg1593]

I remember that lol

[@nibba9506]

I REALLY hope some team does this in overwatch league LOL

[@GriseWeisshark]

That's impossible. The setup time for this is too long. They don't mess around when their reputation and prize money is at stake.

Graving a basketball with 3 enemy’s should be a Achievement with a spray

[@natebriggs542]

Just wanna say that this video was elite phish, I’ve been watching your content for a long time and it always makes me smile, thanks for all the laughs homie

[@foadmoalem4908]

it’s always a treat to watch this type of shit, it’s cool that we have frag montages and try hard yters like kenzo, but something about a bunch of idiots just doing the most obscene shit just hit right, been subbed for a VERY long time and it’s always good to come back to this content salty see this or not just know that you at least have one dude attempting they shit on their own

[@rieskimo]

It's so refreshing to see ppl have fun in overwatch again

[@lihretti]

I love yalls laughs when it started flying

[@ALtheBoi]

Dude this was one of the best OW videos in a while, felt like classic Phish

[@cbjmacm1278]

I wanted a Halloween themed video, and didn’t realize I needed a broken tank mechanics video

[@swiss6754]

Cant wait for Zarya to be completely deleted from the game for this bug!

[@Cook-by-the-book]

Argh! Bastion: first time?

[@nuudelska_1210]

"stealing that move" said by me every time enemy does an owl strat

[@arielherman8373]

Imagine if Overwatch 2 had fall damage

[@stevrt6517]

I love watching phish play with balls

[@aguyontheinternet8436]

This was the most well-crafted overwatch video I've ever seen. Takes me back to days of Lazerbeam and his team working on fortnight bugs to make into a video.

[@AdamantAlex]

oh my god hearing twobold yelling, and i quote "OH BAABY LETS DO THIS SHI*****************" killed me dude. 2:16

[@icankickflipok]

Game has existed for 6 years, how have I never heard of this? This is amazing.

[@Dz73zxxx]

So basically, the sound that Sigma hear is no more than basketball bounce. Canon confirmed!

[@encyclochameleon6751]

TeleSurge is super fun watch them patch it like “uhhhh players were using unintended movement with orisa’s terrasurge, we intended her to not be able to move during her ultimate”

[@FizzleBurger]

2:22 My god, they did it. The HIGHEST Noon.

[@jennymartin8448]

Karq did some videos on baskball interactions .. you can also sonic arrow them , place translocator on them , and sym turrets (although they break when the ball bounces now)

[@pedrodudscucs3349]

After consuming about 30 of your videos i finally get the chance to see one being released

[@JMotion]

They can patch the Tele-Ult. But if they take away another funny basketball Strat I’m gonna be mad.

[@karamei]

Why would they patch that lmao

[@libelous6417]

It’s honestly crazy that you’re almost at 1 mill. I remember around a year ago when I binge watched your videos I was wondering why TF you didn’t have more subs for this poggers content. You deserve this Salty.

[@paquinki]

1:12 they almost c9 LMAO. They about to nerf the basketball

[@draycen7242]

ITS THE RETURN TO GREATNESS! This type of video is so much better and reminds me of your golden days! No more stupid quick vids (They were still good this was just better)

[@HemoGoblinz]

damn that was the hardest ive laughed in the last week

[@thisismyaltaccount4195]

Great video! It's weird strategies like this that I love to see given coordination from a team of dedicated funny people. Cant wait to see more from you, also plushy when?

[@kira_15_R3D]

these videos are honestly so cozy, i can forget about my problems for a bit

[@bodaciouskhajiit1135]

I'm getting flashbacks to sym bringing in the triple lazer orb. Just a bunch of turrets attached to a ball being carried by sym's old tracking beam. Edit: I think Sym was able to place more turrets but I'm not gonna check.

[@fireball1249]

You are correct, Symmetra was able to put 6 Turrets before.

[@daikaijuzilla]

6:39 this bit had me dying

[@Achilles3666]

I stg those damn basketballs are responsible for more shenanigans in OverWatch than everything else combined

[@codejester27]

"Zarya will never be ballin'"

[@thebananas6483]

I hope they never take that basketball/grav interaction out.

[@fireball1249]

Well, they did that with the Symmetra Turrets and Junkrat's Concussion Mine and Trap on the Ball trick. So it's a matter of time before they do it here.

[@AllyMind5Star]

That brings forth the question as to whether this was fully intended... and what else these mysterious basketballs are capable of altering.

[@jennymartin8448]

You can use sonic arrow on it and bounce it around as well
