I have spent most of my Overwatch career in bronze and silver. I never found him overpowered whatsoever.

I started playing Sombra to counter Bastion because most people around gold canāt do anything else than spamming damage and have no idea what to do when this doesnāt work ā¦. if the enemy had a Bastion there was a 80% - 90% Chance of losing when i played healer/tank.
Well role queue is coming even to QPā¦ Iām not sure if I want to be bothered starting the next megathread any more. This is so blatantly forcing a meta.
And theyāre again making a change which disproportionately screws a bastion who isnāt being pocket healed. Itās impossible to counter-heal against a 350 damage pulse bomb in time, but constantly healed by even a mercy: easy.
Maybe Iāll come back occasionally to play quickplay classic in arcade, but if the devs arenāt invested in Bastion then I canāt be invested enough in a megathread.

Not what I see at all. 2-2-2 can create more team comps. Nerfing orisaās barrier nerfs bunker so the meta is uncertain atm. We could get a DVa ball Ashe McCree mercy Baptiste meta who knows. It sounds crazy but itās possible
Also bastion is very meta in gm because of the bunker meta
Very meta? Hahaha, oh wait, let me laugh louder even more, HAHAHAHAHA! Yes, he has been picked more, but saying that he is meta is not true.

Baptiste bunker is a huge talking point. Torbjƶrn isnt a hero in bunker, bastion is the main one
Meta.
As a Gm bastion main I donāt even know how you can say things like that, but letās say you didnāt.

Oh also, An update, ive made a full bastion rework on workshop
6VD2R
Using a combination of my idea and TREBS, currently
- Iron clad has been removed
- he has a shield on E (the real design would be frontal, and protect form CC, the concept is 360Ā° and cant protect from CC due to workshop limitations)
- He gets +150 hp when activating his ultimate
and i think the rest is practically the same thing

Overbuff isnāt a representation of the whole player base. Outside the forums no one uses overbuff
If overbuff is not good enough then the first hand information from high rank players should be enough right?
Let us not forget about the sombra and her hacking skills.
for a second i thought they had deleted this thread and was going to rage lol

I agree with the shield idea, no need for damage upgrades when bastion can easily get ccād or bursted within seconds.
Defense might be better than offense.
I think Wilkham is also on this side of rework as well.
or was it someone elseā¦idk anymore, someoneās gonna agree anyway 
I am already out, i will be on the forums but no longer playing unless im really feeling bored and im never that bored.

a good defense is the best offense in my opinion

I believe Bastion and Pharah have the same glass cannon issue. Against bad teams they are OP and people complain. Against good teams they are easy kills.
Since everything is tuned for OWL and fancy competitive tiers, nothing is going to change unless it is imbalanced up there. This is Blizz in all of its games.
I like this idea a lot.
You how do yaāll feel about 350 damage Pulse Bomb?
Its stupid, Tracer does not need any buffs
Tracer players need to understand that their character now has counters and cant be the best in all situations because of their delusions of āthe most skillful characterā
its especially dumb that it changes NOTHING other than the matchup vs bastion, its a Useless Change
i have even provided Optional Changes That would not hurt bastion as much and actually solve the issue they want to solve
The options are there, But its the wrong buff 100%,
Its not like tracer is bad anyways

How are you guys gonna dodge Pulse Bomb anyway? You wonāt just die without counterplay every 25 to 30 seconds, right?
