First 2 hours with Venture

So i decided at the beginning of this season that I would learn Venture in competitive because I am a monster of a person and I don't have much to lose that I can't gain back.

Venture is pretty sweet when the comp and the map supports them. I have noticed a few things initially about their playstyle and where i get the most value and where I get punished the most.

Pros: They get a lot of value in KOTH maps and maps that have tighter areas/chokes (King's Row, Havana 2nd, Shambali 2nd, BlizzardWorld, Circuit Royal 3rd to name a couple)

Extremely high burst potential!

Incredible mobility that can put you into some really good positions.

Ability usage also grants overhealth which can be great to give your supports enough reaction time to what you're doing.

Let's be honest... they have one of the most joyful mannerisms for a character in the game of overwatch (I literally smile when I am playing them because of all the random voice lines)

Can be a good tank buster at times but I feel like playing them like an assassin is a better use of their kit.

Cons: Very limited range which does not work as easily on certain maps with certain comps against certain comps. Anything with long sightlines with a more passive turtle type team will have you either feeding or waiting to engage with long bouts of downtime. (Havana 1st and 3rd, Circuit Royal 1st sort of, Dorado 2nd I felt some of the pain points on)

You can be put into some very punishing positions if your team doesn't follow up on your aggression. This goes without saying that mismanagement of their abilities will also punish you depending on what you are doing.

You can be countered pretty easily by Pharah and Echo. Long range DPS heroes can also be a problem if you can't close the gap or have someone else helping you with them. Securing a kill on a good Mercy is challenging and requires the use of most of your abilities (but has a great voice line if you do kill her out of the sky).

The animation delay for tunneling seems like an eternity in a team fight.

For tanks I have really liked playing Venture with Reinhardt, Doomfist, and Junker Queen the most. If they follow up on your targets it is extremely devastating. Also, you have the ability to follow up on theirs. For DPS I like playing with a Tracer, Ashe, Echo, Mei the most. For supports I like Lucio and Kiriko but don't mind a Moira although getting vanilla Nano'd by an Ana is kinda crazy how much dmg you can actually do.

Overall I think they are a great addition to the DPS lineup. Their skill expression is very engaging and challenging but they aren't so tough that you can't get value from playing them rather plainly. I have noticed how on maps that I have good flanking routes and can sneak behind the team get a negative response from the enemy team claiming how broken they are meanwhile the moments you have to play like Brigitte they feel extremely underpowered. I feel like this a healthy balance.

I just think they are hella neat.

Below the cut I will have some highlights and potg as Venture. Mostly it is comp but I played them in a 4 stack in quick play for a couple of games with other plat+ players despite my dps being silver.

Los Angeles, 1989 work in progress

→ FAILURES OF SCIENCE index

Did The Last Crusade even play at the Cinerama? I didn't check.

Billy shouldn't be in his Quizboys outfit when he's hanging out off set; he needs a casual look.

Pete has a lot of wigs, not just his game show host hairstyle. This is his cool dude weekend spiked shag.

Billy doesn't know it's not White's real hair but what does Billy know about hair? I mean, look at him.

→→ earlier drawing from same period of their history

Glasses by Oliver Peoples. But for accuracy to era and his lifestyle, I should have done a pair from LA Eyeworks.

fave pete and billy moments comp. i miss them so so much ❤

#i love them so so much its hard to express #not just in the ship way #i love how theyre written #initially it just seems like theyre joke characters but as the series progresses the way they are written just gets more and more sincere #and they become actual people with thoughts emotions hopes and dreams #like they are the prime example of what venture bros means to me #i dont know what it is exactly but theyre certainly it #venture bros #pete white #billy whalen #vbros #petebilly #video #txt

being super normal about White calling Billy "a dreamer"after the events of Maybe No Go

#truly alarming amount of tags on this post don't click read more fr #the venture bros #pete white #bily quizboy #billy whalen #idk man the way they balance each other is really interesting #the things they agree on and disagree on are almost arbitrary #'you can't put mouthwash in a cookie' 'trust me' vs 'we should spend 10 mil on a motorcycle instead of housing' 'that's such a cool idea'#billy trying to pep white up about the ball #'this was your dream too' like come on dude when have pete's dreams ever worked out #when have yours #'what are we gonna do now billy?' 'we'll cross that bridge when we come to it'#baby the bridge has never been more present #ALSO white calling billy the dreamer when HE'S the one who pushes so hard for things #billy has dreams that might not be realistic but they give him hope and he works around the way the world works to make things happen #like being a self-taught surgeon and believing in a magic ball #pete has dreams IN SPITE of what is realistic and he will mold reality to be what he wants in order to make it happen #like fixing the quizshow and pretty much everything that happened in invisible hand of fate #and they both have disabilities that affect them in vastly different ways and impact their relationship with realistic goals #like billy's hydrocephalus being presented to the audience as mostly a social issue for him and the hand and eye being marks of trauma #rather than like an actual block for him beyond needing to tune the hand up every now and then #vs white's albinism making him physically unable to be in direct sunlight and making him actively fearful of doing certain things and #being certain places #to be clear i know the actual effects of hydrocephalus as well as the hand and eye but this is based on how the show presents it #like billy took these things about himself into account and went ok these are part of my reality and i will work with them #and pete took his reality and went ok i will cover it up with fake tan and wigs or sunscreen and hats and make reality what i want it to be #and that's what makes them a good team!! that's why they science together well #it's also why they argue so much #accepting reality and playing within its constraints vs hating reality and changing it to suit you #these are the hallmarks of scientific progress

They're VERY passionate when it comes to their fashion sense (or just fashion in general)

𝐇𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐥𝐲 really misses her dad, especially since they were pretty close 😥

They're hopefully optimistic (& actually quite excited) about meeting their fiancé, especially since they'll get a chance to learn about Lunaria completely free from “vampire bias”

She's the living embodiment of the “🤗” & “🥰” emojis

While 𝐇𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐥𝐲 is typically an amicable person, on the battle-field they're the complete opposite: an absolute terror (rarely holding back when they or their friends/family are in danger)
