As a Kiriko main

She’s needs her hitbox increased, it’s absolutely ridiculous that a hero with 200hp has a smaller hitbox then tracer. This is easily the #1 attribute to her survivability IMO, the best thing to do with her is to literally strafe spam and you’ll pretty much be incredibly difficult to hit.

She needs tp to require LOS or cleanse removed
Increasing body hitbox kills the hero - look at Cass, Sojourn etc

You can make a point against a video game character without pretending to be a “main” of them to project an illusion of objectiveness.

Yes, her hurtbox is a bit on the small size, I agree.

You are either drunk or very stupid. Kiriko has the lowest win rate among supports.
The same Genji is an analogue of Kiriko, he has 3 shuriken, requires less aiming, he has a deflection and a dash. Kiriko has suzu, and most often she gives it to her teammates and gets caught on cooldowns. Not to mention the low-rank meta where Moira dominates, Moira easily kills Kiriko. Kiriko starts to be played only at high ranks, and even then it is difficult to realize it. Illari and Ana give more impact in the game, Ana’s biotic grenade cooldown is less than Kiriko’s suzu, and have more impact. So, if you see Kiriko in a game and she makes you uncomfortable, it just means that Kiriko is being played by a stronger player than you. I don’t even understand why people whine about supports, all supports except Illari and Moira are weaker than any DD, and even then Moira is played only on low-ranks. Almost any DD gives more damage and is simpler, and the abilities of supports are often used not by the supports themselves, but by their teammates, so supports are easy to kill on cooldowns. I play all roles, and the most difficult role is support - everyone wants to kill you, then tanks, and only then DD. Stop passing off your weakness in the game as fact.

I do main her on support tho.

Requiring an los check on swift step would kill her even more.

I would straight up not mind buffing Suzu healing or her damage output if she got a hitbox size increase. Same for Illari. It legit feels like she’s smaller than Tracer sometimes.

As a totally non biased not kiriko main, buff her suzu cd to match ana nade :slight_smile:

Delusional people who think they know what they’re talking about or parroting the same old tired talking points of their favorite content creator.

Sorry bro, you are getting hunted by the kiri mafia (picture an All white yakuza). May need to take you to witness protection.

You are correct tho, I’d make her head hit box more hittable.

Having played her a bit, don’t think swift step should require los. Do think it should have a cast time tho. The animation is nonexistent.

Kiriko doesn’t have the raw results to justify any major nerfing or even tweaking. World Cup is literally Lucio, Illari, and Baptiste for the most part.

Season 5 was Ana and Brig in top 500. Season 6-7 is dominated by Illari/Bap. Even into season 7, Kiriko <40/500 spots which is down right pathetic for a supposedly busted support.

When the meta shifts away from Illari/Bap/Sigma/Bastion again into maybe dive or something where Illari/Bap come out of favor, then we can look at the states for the roles.

Kiriko’s hitbox isn’t that bad if you know where to aim. Aim at her legs and you’ll pretty much never miss because of how wide her stance is.

I do agree, she needs to have her hitbox increased or maybe her HP reduced to 175 or 150.

Kiriko in top of having the smallest hitbox in this game, has 3 ways to escape or to prevent to be killed : suzu, tp and climbing walls.
