Good thing Overwatch did not lower its base game price during Black Friday. If they did, I probably would have dropped this challenge.

I was actually tempted by Overwatch's price drop, just because my friend plays it so much. But then I remembered the one miserable, confusing match I had during the beta and saved myself 40 bucks.

Literally the only reason I own Overwatch is because my brother forced me to buy it to play with him. I last played it around a week after it came out. Posted Image

I refuse to play any game where a viable game tactic is pretending you are a kangaroo for the whole match.

Cause playing 1-2 games of MWO before playing OW is so hard you have to drop the "challenge" of kerensky bowl?

No, I will give up farming components entirely and just play OW.

I actually have completed component challenge by using splat / shotgun builds few days ago. It's much easier to do that, I mostly got 5-10 component destroyed per match. So I can play OW with my friends after completing Kerensky Bowl event.

Except I can tolerate playing MWO for only few matches a day. Only my Jade Kite is keeping me interested in this challenge, if not the game. I'm spending 5x more time playing L4D2.

Yep. It has gotten to be a chore. Had to you know, actually do the family thing last night, but still had to come home to force myself to play. Hate these dailies and would have rather everything else been twice as hard to complete. At least then I would have had a goal other than to knock out a match with a 100 match score ASAP.

I'm missing two days so no f*ck ups allowed anymore. But I have to say: I'm glad that its extremely easy to get that point.
Imagine if it would be bound to winning the match like the events back then. 100 Matchscore is nothing but winning the match can take a while if your team consists of a bunch of mouthbreathers really uneducated people.

Come on, man, no need to be mean. I'm only breathing through my mouth because allergies have slammed my nose shut.

Agreed. I did the rest of the goals in the first three days. Why oh why aren't you allowed to complete the challenge in your own pace? This is just punishment :(

Sorry. Had a rough day. But I have seen some really odd players the past few days. Well, not that it bothers me. Winning isn't required so everythings dandy.

I live in a city listed on the top 10 worst places to live for someone with allergies, and have to take allergy pills on almost a daily basis if I'm going to be doing any work outside. All year.

Thanks giving was terrible. I was taking fistfuls of multiple kinds of pills to try and keep my sinuses clear so I could hang out with the family. Was miserable the entire time and spent half of the night zoning out and staring at walls. And I went to bed fearing I might actually wake up really messed up from all the pills. Hospital messed up.

Finally got it under control for the most part, but now my nose and throat are raw as hell.

Stupid cats...

Legitimately, if allergy pills aren't cutting it, grab night-time cold meds. Even if you know you don't have a cold. It's better to have a drug induced sleep over not being able to breath. My only qualm about night-time cold meds is that I get freaky (and not the good kind of freaky) dreams from them.

Stuff never works for me. I always just end up waking up in a panic and gasping for air when I try to breath through my nose in my sleep and can't.

I'll be ok now. I live in the woods, so we need cats around to deal with the squirrels and mice and crap. Which is fine when they're outside 90% of the time. But every year, when winter hits and they move inside, I go through this miserable affair. Another week and I'll have adjusted.
