yeah the ult. THE ULT. Im down for more ults like hers is now cause since they nerfed it, its no longer a junkrat tire that you stick to people

Well lets think about this for a second then.
Tracer’s Ultimate:
- 5 meter radius with a 1 second detonation
- Heavy damage feathering which requires precision
- Can kill non-tanks but can’t kill full hp tanks
- Cannot be damage boosted (to my knowledge)
- Requires very specific combination of ultimates to team wipe which even then the enemies have a chance to avoid the damage
So you have a powerful ultimate that requires precision techniques that very rarely has the potential to team wipe throughout all ranks and the damage can be entirely avoided or mitigated due to the short, but powerful lifespan of the ultimate.

I think we’re on the same side here? i mean yeah tracer ult now = good, old ult with her as an easy hero with fast ult charge was gross, they could have made it take more charge, her do less dmg, or the ult do less dmg and yeah
also this guy gets my original post

Nano blade would still work as in the Genji would get 50% damage reduction, it still works as a combo

I don’t think he was broken with 30 damage shurikens, there are DPS in the game that still do way more damage than him and easier.
Hey I dont wanna remove Nano Blade either but everyone complains about it if its a Genji meta because there are so many Genji players out there so you usually get one on both teams, and it just becomes a NanoBlade game, even though Nanoblade can be shutdown with 1 ultimate easily, it’s still annoying to people.
If we have to remove NanoBlade to buff his Base kit, then so be it, he can still get the 50% damage reduction from Nano but no more damage boost.

Genji players are already prioritizing low health targets and squishy characters… this is just a buff to his blade, which he doesn’t need.

no
because this completely defeats the point of nanoing a rein and brigitte
which is not a problem as it still has its limitations due to rein being a close range hero same goes for brig

Rein and Brig getting less value in exchange of other characters having more chance to get Nano is worth it imo.

Firstly, Ana is the enabler. Secondly, Ana is among the best supports in the game while Genji is among the worst DPS in the game. I find it a fair trade although I wouldn’t change Genji, I’d just power creep down all the game
To be fair I disagree with this. Nano Rein would not be as powerful as it is now, but usually giving nano to tanks creates brutal space for your team. A Rein having 50% damage reduction has not gotta worry about anything, the damage is just a plus in my opinion.

Ana is one of very few supports in the game. Genji is one of 17 DPS in the game, only amongst the worst in GM (which you are not), so to YOU he is the 4th/5th best DPS currently.
Genji’s ult needs a nerf if you want his base kit to be buffed, it’s not Ana’s fault Genji is reliant on his ult. By nerfing Ana, you’re nerfing every melee hero in the game just for the sake of Genji.

Or you know we can just make it so blade can’t be damaged boosted.

What are you trying to say with that?
Game is balanced around that elo mate. Just for you to know.
I agree, even though I don’t want neither of both, I think that the way to go is another that is not a buff, but if power creep is not going to get reverted, it’s a fair trade. I get your point where you don’t want Genji to be in every plat game, and I get it, but Genji will always be picked a lot due to his popularity. Same thing happens with McCree, he will still be in a lot of plat games due to his popularity.
Well, Ana is the enabler of nanoblade, appart of beyblade, nanobarrage, nanovisor, nanorein. All of those are very strong combos and may need tuning.
Again, I didn’t say that I would go this way, but I defend it since there are only two melee heroes in the game, Brig and Rein, and both nanos are really strong so it wouldn’t be such a crazy thing to do.

Blade is a good ult. It’s just that it’s too easy to kill Genji when he uses it.
I would not change the damage and just make Genji a bit more survivable in blade mode.

I mean, during that meta I was like bronze so I can’t really comment much on it but I remember a friend of mine going from like low gold to diamond by playing him despite never playing genji before. The spread buff with the extra damage made him way too easy imo.

Tbh I feel like they should revert both because the cancel feels cheap, and 2 second deflect without the cancel would basically be a death sentence now a days with cc and stuff being so strong.

It is ana’s problem because blade by itself is a pathetic ultimate at best only useful when the enemy team has absolutely no cooldowns left and Nano let’s it become an actual ultimate, one thats pretty good but that’s what you’re gonna get if you combine 2 offensive ults

How is Genji the issue when blade is literally used to bait cooldowns in high elo?

Because nano blade is the only nano combo people constantly complain about.
-> ana is fine, genji is not.

And yet no one complains about blade + anything else. If they were to nerf one of the two it would be better nerf ana.
