Brigg , mercy, moira require skill because you need to know how to position with them!!!
Like i legit wonder if who types this things doesn’t think about other characters, or just can’t accept his character doesn’t really require much skill (which is fine).
“Everyone seems to think that mechanical aim is the only skill that matters and because of that any hero that doesn’t require that is easy to play. But mechanical skill is not the most important skill one should have. Positioning is. All the aim in the world can’t help you if you’re constantly dying because you don’t know how to properly protect yourself.”
Like i legit felt Weird reading this. Symmetra must be the most skilled character in the game then, because she lacks mobility and needs to aim.
Also we going to ignore that with good aim, you can kill them before they kill you?
i think what people mean is that, the more mobility that you have the “harder” it is to be punished for beeing in a bad spot because you can just YEET away.
but rly idk why people are so demanding in general in comparing skill requirements…it really only matters when you are trying to balance the character to make sure its fair
Overwatch is a game meant for everyone of all skill levels , that’s fine and all, and i don’t have a problem with low skill, ok reward.
High reward is when things start bothering. the problem is. this people tend to lie to themselves , and i get it, they are afraid their character will get nerfed.
But i’ll just say it here again, it’s been proven and stated that the “team” doesn’t read forums only reddit, and most people use forums because on reddit you get insta downvoted and your posts die in minutes.
Has for mobility, Tracer sometimes can get stuck on walls by blinking it happens, even genji might do that one bad double jump that gets him one shotted by a widow.
Even mobility itself requires skill.
And tbh, people just hate dying to characters that don’t require aim, because they feel it’s cheap.
Probably the reason mei and moira are extremely hated.
There were mei subreddits dedicated to hating her in the early days of overwatch that got closed down.
that’s true, Forums are more social , reddit is just for people to share their opinion and get downvoted tryhards.
Most of the times your posts might also get deleted, because reddit also lacks some freedom of speech.
The people who say heroes require no skill are just ignorant, everyone takes skill. But all heroes need to have the basics, positioning, ability usage, cooldown management etc.
However, some heroes also require mechanics along with that which makes them harder because that’s another requirement for the hero. So there are low skill heroes, which are perfectly ok, and high skill heroes.
Mercy Can just press (shift) guardian angel and go to other characters, and has a small hitbox, and hp regen, i legit fail to see how mercy requires has much skill has people say.
If you have no one to guardian angel too, than you probably shouldn’t be there anymore. because most of your team is probably dead.
Mercy will never touch the skill level Ana , zen, and baptist require.
This ignoring the guardian angel glitch.
And i’ll just say this, Zen might be hard to headshot, but body shotting him is the easiest thing ever, and zen has 0 mobility.
Effectively because she has absolutely no recourse for poor positioning barring GA, which is fairly slow and requires LOS. It’s fairly easy to see many heroes have way more lenient positioning requirements than others when you play tank a lot, since you’re always watching everyone. Genji and Tracer are great examples - both have small character models, higher base speed and CD abilities that all help mobility and damage avoidance. Does that mean they are low skill? No. Does that mean it’s way easier for them to mitigate poor positioning or achieve good positioning relative to a character like Torb or Sym? Yes.
if you thik that ana/zen needs the same positions skills than moira… lol.
moira have 20meters infinity self healing with auto lock, another self healing hability with the healing orb and one very good run away hability… and
also she can activate the ult to get more auto healing . LOL
and is worse if the enemy sometimes have to run away because moira also makes dmg while she is getting self healing…
wait, people hate mercy? i thought people only hated mei, moira and brigg.
which is understandable.
Maybe they hate mercy because of pharamercy and res. Which also would be understandable.
