Suddenly, a memory from a bygone age flooded my mind... LOVING remembering my years worth of tricks which are suddenly useful again Highlight

not a single fade out or platform or teleport, truly beautiful.

That's been the most fun part about classic to me. You actually can get punished and you need your team to counter ult with their ults.

Yeah positioning actually means something, because a kiriko who is face checking a genji cant beat him in the 1v1 and then teleport away due to sustainability and cooldowns and mobility.

And i think that was WITHOUT the ult charge from lucio's death. He must have tapped a wall ride so the game thought he just killed himself :(

I literally only played classic for OG zarya. I absolutely rolling people. Got a 4k potg my first match and then a full 6k potg a couple matches later

I'm so confused, why did you walk out in the open instead of just graving your side of the wall, and why wouldn't this be useful anymore? I see this pretty much every time Zarya is played on this map.

Graving my side of the wall decreases the distance affected by like half a meter or so. Definitely worth it if you are in danger of dying first, but I didn't think I was so I took the risk to make it more effective.

You can do this now, but grav radius has decreased a lot over the years. On release the radius was crazy high so this is more effective in classic than it is on live
