Tracer was not as dominant as you think. She’s good, but not meta-definingly good.

Yes, but roll does allow McCree to move quickly, then you add an fast close range to midrange stun instant stun. And 140 damage headshot. Better lurker than Reaper, while still being McCree.
Oh, boy. Here we go again.

I disagree. Brig feels fine and is fine to play against

Tracer could outplay anything, and had no counters. A skilled Tracer could do whatever she wanted. No one thinks of Tracer’s original counters as her counters anymore, she needed and received a new one. Blame skill.

They should’ve just nerfed Tracer first before releasing a Counter first.A top500 player complained that adding Brigitte didn’t do much,and that Tracer is still OP

The counter to Tracer is just basic aim. She only has 150 health and needs to be on top of you to do anything.

No, the counter to skilled aim is Tracer, she has 150 hp because she’s not supposed to get shot in the first place. That worked so well at high tiers that Tracer became a must pick.

I think Tracers main problem is that she can one-clip squishies.She has 480dmg max. potential.And I played her against tanks,and she just melts them.Her primary needs nerf.And I saw a top500 tracer player,he just melts the supports and there is nothing they can do.

Tracer was built around messing up people’s aim, you can see some teams in OWL having people with the best aim in the world struggles because they don’t have a dedicated tracer player

Too bad Bastion will just get destroyed by the rest of her team
Yet JJonak is the mvp? Tracer just needed more counter. It’s too early to be sure if Tracer needs more Tracer specific counters.

Not really. Aside from Tracer and Brigitte, it allows other heroes to be played or to be preferred to be played in situatoins depending on the comp.
For example, Junkrat vs Pharah. If the enemy is barrier oriented and you need to stop their push, Junkrat is one of the 2 heroes best utilized to stop them from pushing. However, then comes Pharah.
If a Pharah keeps picking you off as Junkrat, she can invalidate you, which you switch to a hitscan like Widow or S76 to counter Pharah. And since enemy Pharah gets heavily countered by them, especailly WIDOWMAKER, they either switch to a barrier hero instead to protect their team from range or use dive heroes to flank them and take them out.
I know its a 6v6 game, but it doesnt stop when an enemy focuses on you and they know they have the upperhand. Heck, Ive gone through that on several heroes and I switch unless someone in my team can help counter them back.
Plus, youre going to have about 30+ heroes in like a year and more within the next decade, they need some form of advantage over other heroes so they can get picked over and best used in certain situations. Which is where counter picking comes in.

She doesn’t ‘mess’ with your aim, she’s just fast. The only thing stopping you from killing her is the limits of your own skill.
Hanzo has better shield now.
Well I am not talking about myself, if the best players in the world cannot aim her unless they stand on the equal ground of hyper mobility (i.e. picking tracer too) that’s definitely tracer is the skill ceiling was way too high and probably still that high after the introduction of Brig

Except her new counter doesn’t counter her so hard at all. A good Tracer can still win against a Brigitte aslong as she keeps her distance. Brigitte only makes it slighly harder to kill the backline.

One thing at a time.
You do realize it would create a bigger problem since his cc guarantees a kill and would be more oppressive to everyone but tracer it still can be baited btw
