Brigitte Is Broken As Heck

I can’t even play the game and have fun anymore. It’s just people playing this hero stunning you left and right and never dying. She has barely any counters. And people who do counter her barely do. I’ve gone from Diamond last season to mid Plat this season and am dropping as we speak. Brigitte is almost impossible to kill with her AOE armour and healing. Not to mention if you have a Moira to pocket her and others. She has too much healing and too much stuns. This is not fun anymore. This is torture.

I think Hanzo is a hard counter because the rapid arrow could almost break the shield then shoot the shield to break it and kill her oh but be sure to be far away

That’s the reason I put down a ???, I can only guess based off the PTR feedback if he’ll be better at it is than he is now, and so far most signs point to yes.

He is already a counter to her though because he can take her down from a range she can’t fight back pretty consistently.

I see her die all time from Pharah, Junkrat and players who sneak up on her. I mean you’re suppose to study the character first then find what their weakness are.

She counter’s your main, and you have no time on her. I think its fair to say you may be a tad bit biased.

There are plenty of single heros that counter brig.
Her real strength and weakness is teamwork.

A brig on a team with good teamwork will be hard to fight. On the other hand, a brig fighting a team with better teamwork will melt.

You cant lone-wolf her. You just cant. I think forcing players to cooperate is a great thing. Its sorely missing from OW.

I play Junkrat and Pharah and they don’t hard counter Brig. They’re sort of viable against her, but Brig is still harder to kill as either than literally any other support, or about half of the tanks.

I think Orisa’s high dps (limited by her projectile speed, normally, isnt an issue for brig fights), barrier and fortify make her a great counter to Brig.

I was on route 66 and I THROW my ulti(As Rein) in front of a Brigitte ulti and THE Brigitte ULTI DIN’T STOP

BUT SHE CAN CANCEL MY ULTI WHEN I’M ZEN
xD…

You main genji in competitive.

Bridgette was literally designed to counter you. A character that was previously unchecked and not truly countered by anyone.

That’s like Symmetra complaining about Winston.

Zen is invulnerable when ulting.

That’s it.

And mostly because of riptire…

Like really, the current meta seems to be
Brigitte + Zenyata + Moira/Mercy
Reinhardt + Zarya
And Junkrat or Pharah
Basically nothing without spam damage or wombo combo ults is bad.

I think there is a difference between “counters Brig,” and “Counters Brig-ple support meta,” though.

Reaper is a pretty hard counter to Winston, but is difficult to make use of because of all the other heroes in dive.

I think Orisa would better counter a brig comp than a rein would.

Reinhardt doesn’t counter Brigitte, she is just there to be a damage sponge in the front.

Yeah I agree because you can just fortify to cancel the stun and then if you have a bastion or shield shredder they can kill brigette no problemo

And halt to keep her from running away afterwards.

She literally can’t fight back against Pharah, like at all. She is 100% reliant on her team to handle Pharah, while Pharah can shoot her even with her shield up.

She is a very hard counter to her, probably the hardest counter that she has, and it’s one of the most lopsided fights in the entire game.

I reported your thread for trolling… serious, so difficult to post your thread in one of the already existing ones?
