Flats Reacts To "How This Overwatch 2 Hero Ruined My Life" 

i just finished bogurs video 20 minutes ago and after seeing what he went through we should in fact nerf genji

This reminds me of the time I got into an internet argument about how Lifeweaver sucks and the guy kept trying to insist that MANY people have one-tricked Lifeweaver into GM & I was just too harsh on the character. I had to google it to tell him how wrong he was, and that's how I found out about how it was Bogur and only Bogur.

Bogur’s explanation of why saving teammates is pointless made me realize that they made a second Mercy

I'm glad he emphasized just how worthless voice chat is for solo q anywhere below t500. It's so tiring seeing the community try to argue that shotcalls are essential to climb when literally nobody listens to each other. It's the most overrated tool in the game

You cannot watch this video and go "The ranked system is good.", because who in their right mind wants to look at 3 wins - 12 losses knowing full well that even if they win the next two games, they're gonna de-rank.

Never heard of that guy until this video. But I was so emotionally invested and relieved when he finally got it. Had to go and give him a like & sub. So good to watch someone with so much passion for a game. Wholesome af at the end.

This is the one single time in the history of competitive games where a professional doing an "Unranked to GM" playthrough isn't devious and scummy by ruining everyone's games, so many kudos to Bogur!

Lowkey feel obligated to go let the original video play while doing something else, this was a masterpiece

My proudest moment in overwatch is when my game chat agreed my lifeweaver gameplay hard carried a match. Lol

The skills he started busting out as he got better and better were truly magical, I hope now he can rest easy

A player leaving mid match really takes its toll especially in gold/plat. It happens way to often then people think

"I SMURF YOUR PEAK" THAT KILLED ME

Bro just pulled back a literal 1HP Anti-naded Soldier only for him to run back in STILL 1HP AND ANTI'D 😫 - Support Experience in a nutshell

I laughed so hard when Reinhardt used his platform to slam the Pharah. Not just because the clip was legendary but because I said no way and Flats said it after, it cracked me up so hard 😂

This by far, the most realistic unranked to gm series I have ever seen on RU-vid

5:00 and forth...bogur singlehandedly explaining why some matches as support feel miserable sometimes...true, they are op but even if you heal accordingly, peel for the other support, deny flankers any kills, deny ultimates, deal damage and save teammates, if they dont hit nothing, you as support cant make them hit those shots...those games are not the majority, but when you have to deal with those, you really feel powerless

Flats always does such good reaction videos. Actually pauses the video and adds things instead of letting it run while staring blankly at the screen

Man, this is really funny to watch having just climbed to masters for the first time with Lifeweaver lmao its night and day how much better 20ish buffs (tree overhealth counts for buffs 15-20 alone) made him lol

Imagine seeing Bogur on Support and asking him to play LW, he just leaves and you never hear from him again.

37:00 The amount of clowns I run into in ow2 that turn red when I say this is astounding. YOU DO NOT NEED COMMS TO CLIMB, JUST UNDERSTAND THE GAME AND BE GOOD ENOUGH TO CARRY OR DO YOUR PART ON YOUR TEAM.

Bogur stuck in diamond losing his mind is me with any hero. This is the life

1:45 - intro 5:00 - Maxwell 6:34 - plat 7:57 - animal 14:08 - pocket 18:02 - smurf + dafran 21:15 - based rein 22:22 - press a q + dogs + 23:27 - iamond 25:48 - how much 29:05 - he's everywhere 35:26 - shot call 39:15 - russian 44:30 - c9

I watched this a couple days ago, imma still watch your reaction to it

9:18 I played a game on New Queen Street yesterday that is such a perfect example of this. Masters 3 average lobby, my team was losing fight after fight after fight. They pushed all but to full-cap right off the bat and it was looking grim. I wasn't having my best game, there was very little voice chat communication between everyone, and I was feeling defeated. My team did not give up though, even at the seeming end. We stalled it out, everyone just did the best they could do in that moment, and we're able to put a hold together when we needed it most. I was uncertain if we had any chance to win - they'd nearly full-capped and we had to push it ALL the way to the other side with maybe 5 minutes on the clock - we couldn't afford to lose more than one or two fights. Nobody on the team gave up. We made some adjustments and kept going. We won a fight. Then the next. And the next. I could FEEL the momentum building in the team even if nobody was talking in voice but me. Overtime hits as we round the last corner, and the pressure was on. Any mistakes could cost us the game in an instant. The stall at the end felt never-ending, but we WON. Never give up on your team. This game was such a prime example for me of "it's always winnable". It was far from a perfect game, or even a good one. It seemed like all odds were against us, but sure as hell we were in it till the end and it was worth every second. Games like this are the reason I still love play Overwatch. If anyone cares to watch, the code is BRGSJS. I'm SpacePirate :)

I watched Jay3's reaction to this, and I'm glad to see Flats has as well. I sort of agree that Unranked to GM videos aren't that great of content, but this is definitely one worth watching. It's also because of this that this might be worth checking Bogur out more often as well.

i watched bogurs video 2 days ago and today again along side flats. it is such a damn good video about such an insane undertaking and journey- the edits and music choices were so on point and the emotional rollercoaster is real. bogur is an insane lad and absolute giga chad

The kiriko duel around 12:00 is a great example of how bloated soke supports kits are vs lifeweaver. Kiri narriwly survives the end of his mag and just 2 shots him... and she gets higher healing per sec, a teleport vs his dash and platform, probably the best ult in the game vs the tree. Even the best part of his kit on long cooldown is generally outclassed by suzu on a *single* target, nvm multiple. Theyre just not even remotely close.

Damn Bogur’s editing is on another level. No react content laziness. Nice

That rien named Hollywood is a legend.

As someone who did t500/gm flex solo q s1-8 i can 100% confirm that while lower elos can be bad, you definitely start meeting very special individuals (13:49) between diamond1 and early gm. Usually apes that play 24/7 and got there by sheer persistence and being slightly above average but vastly overestimate their abilities and will flame like there's no tomorrow. high gm/t500 is much better, late diamond/early gm is fucking atrocious egos wise. Was true then, still true now..

One must imagine Lifeweaver happy.

I love how about halfway through the video he literally just goes insane

You were definitely right. This is a masterpiece within the Overwatch community. I laughed so hard.

I watched the Bogur Vid already, but, I'm glad I'm watching the react. Flats cheering for and caring about what Bogur went through was special to me. That's the way to be.

This is a lesson in why i no longer watch twitch. Chat can ruin the experience for me. I was a mod for ohnickel back in the day and never again. Dealing with almost 1k people back when bots were not really used. I feel for streamers nowadays. People back then were fing brain dead. So i can only imagine how bad they are now. Sorry his chat being dumb brought back some memories lol

21:17, when the Rein charged the Pharah off of the platform, that almost made me break my desk it was so funny.

can we appreciate the fact that flats was sat there looking at his phone making 0 commantery for a solid 10 minutes throughout this vid, truly transformative content.

the plat in Overwatch currently, feels like the Bronze-Silver in Valorant. sooo many people want to give up before even trying.

Admitting that you need a pocket to get kills is fucking insane

This was so much of a cinematic masterpiece that I didn't realize it was almost an hour long. And there is a reason I'm a tank main

Bogur’s monologues were incredible

21:25 oh god, that's like the old Widow grapple! The one that just hooked you onto anything on or around you besides where you were aiming

first video of him I saw, Bogur is my idol....I hope his mind snaps back in place, bless him

Ik he did this before his adjustments. I'm a LW main when it comes to support Ik he gets hate but I love him so much the amount of control he exerts on the battle field with his BDSM kit is literally my favorite with his sharp thorns his pink leash and his flowers used correctly with actual team coordination you can have zero death games so frequently

its kinda sad that this video has double the views of the original, no flame to flats but bogur lost big time here

Good lord what were their balance team thinking when they released him that he was so bad to get to GM played by someone as good and dedicated as him he needed to be buffed. Also shows how bad the ranking system was that even had issues understanding ranking up and getting stuck in elo hell.

Credit where it's due, that was an extreme effort

I’ve watched this 4 times, twice by myself, once with jay3 and once with flats. That’s how good itnis

this was such a rollercoaster so glad i watched it all congrats Bog!

My favorite thing about this video is the amount of assassins creed 2 songs used in it. A game literally about a happy, charming guy, going crazy and bloodthirsty and has to find his sanity, and humanity again

i remember when i unlock lw, i played him every game for the next 4 hours i quickplay. the amount of times i've got called to switch is insane, i also lost 90% of my games, it was just horrible

This is Maxwell's House, and we're just living in it.

Great Video and a brilliant reaction 😊 Flats reactions always brighten my day ❤

Soundtrack at 27:25 is DOOM 2016 OST - Authorization; Olivia Pierce

This is an amazing journey. I really feel for how much he put his mind through.

the leaving early thing is in other games as well. i loved battleborn when it was available and so often people would leave after losing the first control point on our side but then still go on to win 4v5 because the game isnt over until the game is over. same when i play magic the gathering. i always draw my last card to see my options before conceding. what i find most annoying in overwatch is that im pretty casual so that means stuck in the mental hell that is gold.

The comment Bogur made about keeping flaming out of VC unless prompted is honestly based. I wish more people thought like that.

So much anxiety ! So heartwarming at the end!

The actual definition of an emotional rollercoaster

That tracer pulse bomb pull. Pure pain

i JUST finished this video, bogur is a legend. i love him.

Magnificent. It really was. That production was dope too!

The "giving up on a fight you already won" is so true. People are SO quick to pass blame or to give up when they die more than once. Team wipes are fine, just group up and try again, try different tactics, switch if you need too or use fights to build ults and try to turn the fight with that. I get it if someone is 0/5 and it's CLEAR that they really aren't adding anything to the fight, but you STILL don't need to be toxic. I just wish people would actually join the VC in the lower ranks though, would make call-outs and communication WAY easier.

I don’t play ow but I enjoy watching your vids and reacts. Just thought I’d put that out there :)

The amount of monologues is astonishingly entertaining...

Bogur is just built like that 💪

They say insanity is doing the same thing and expecting a different outcome. He has truly gone insane

Life Weaver sounds more like Wife Leaver at this point

This was funny to watch. Like the part 'am I a victim of my own hubris...' 😂😂 I did feel his pain

I'd like to say that I managed to make it to gm playing mostly lifeweaver, which is very different from only lifeweaver, but the biggest issue I ran into were people instantly throwing my game for picking the hero. The worst part of lifeweaver was unironically my teammates' mental upon seeing me pick the hero. Several games I had teammates tell me to swap or they'd throw, then jump off the map all game. That was infinitely more tilting than anything else and I guarantee that is why it took bogur so long to get in as well.

This video gave me the inspiration to redownload palidens and start playing it again once more. Edit it is no longer supported on the switch may my memories with that game rest in piece

It's super common to go 5 and 1 or 5 and 0 and not move especially at lower elos I've also seen it with really high elo streams too like frogger went 5 and 0 3 times and didn't move

If anyone ever needs to know , these two keys let you move frame by frame on YT: ,. the not shifted version of

It's funny cause honest to god the second I stopped being shy and started doing callouts (I'm a tank so nowadays especially it's helpful), I climbed DRAMATICALLY. Was hard stuck in bronze no joke for years until I decided to finally start actually TALKING in the game. Now I'm M1 on Ball.

Bro the assassins creed 2 music in the background hit a nostalgic spot in my brain

i started playing ranked this season. im a weaver main and i was not expecting a high starting rank but out of the matches i did to get placed multiple of the losses were because of 2 teammates leaving and it being 3v5. losing because i suck is fine, but losing like that is so frustrating

Good lord I thought it was just me suffering… I started to main weaver but will still go back to ol faithful (Ana) when I need to. It’s crazy how I can save my teammates pump heals and get picks when I can and still get rolled.

You know what the sad thing is? This is the experience of THOUSANDS of us who are gold / plat level with any hero not just an underpowered one. Only way to get out of gold / plat is to have master level aim and game sense. Thousand of us are hard stuck in there with garbage teammates and we don't have that godly mechanics to get out of it. If we did, we'd be GM. I play plat 2 comfortably for months and a bad streak hits. I go down as low as silver sometimes. You'd think I could just easily get out of silver once I do. Bro I drop 50 kills and we lose. I got people AFK, leave, throw, enemy team 3-4 smurfs. I finally climb back up after 100 games and guess what? I go 3-15, 5-10, 5-10. Matchmaker is idiotic.

This man's pain is universal.

Lifeweaver was really good when he released, i was on an 80% winstreak after his first day of release between like 10-25 games, he was just heavily overshadowed by the support power creep, but if you could play LW good back then, hes absolutely busted now, i still use his old layout just because i prefer that play style. I still think that he should get his little health flower back ngl, but it can get destroyed by enemies now

what did he do at 4:40 to get such an applause

10:14 I feel no matter your rank you should just play to the end without giving up even when it seems lost.

the gradual enlargement of the rank on the screen 😭 he put it in caps too

15:02 My favourite part. I love the editor

I hard carry teams as LW. Assuming I don't DPS or anything leaving LOS; or someone picks Sombra. Play around pillars or glitch spots to juke snipes. The more they focus on concrete the less damage they doing on the enemy team too. The second I DPS, that's a 2 second switch to heal, which will kill someone, because with LW, if you stop spreading your seed, everyone dies now a days.

I'd like to believe Bogur got Lifeweaver buffed.

As a LW main, it's really difficult to go up. I normally solo queue and get teammates that don't know how to play. 2 days ago I finally played competitive with a friend and we won every game.

imagine playing too much overwatch that you just become radioactive

13:30, OW2 players known different games??? Hearing this ost got me reminiscing

That bottle vanishing is me, that's a light weekend as a support main.

"Dafran, can you turn your monitor on please¿" 🤣🤣

I love how invested Flats got

i love how a LOT of this video is just flats trying not to wheeze at bogur’s tilting

That’s a gg for bogur, cinematic masterpiece ❤

The fun part is that this video is just 10 minutes longer than the original which means that the amount of content added by your reaction is really low, but hey - at least both of you got the same amount of views! And you uploaded it just 4 days after he uploaded the video he worked 3 months on, which means that you didn't even let it sit on RU-vid for a week before you started siphoning his potential views :) And kudos to you for at least linking to the original video and not hiding the creator like some other channels, but that's still low af

I smurf your peak is CRAZY, literally he buried the guy lmfao

Sisyphus would be proud of your struggle

So manytimes i pulled them out of danger, they jump right back in there 😢

God I usually just watch his shorts and TikTok’s but flats with out glasses at first I didn’t even recognize him in the thumbnail

7:58 The amount of times I see this happen in qp is painful, or when they spam need healing WHEN I CANT HEAL THEM PAY ATTENTION!
