Haven’t needed to voice my opinions since World of Warcraft tbh. I feel they’ve constantly tried to be proactive about balancing the game but I’m probably in the miniority that just wanted new heroes and maps.

-No to JQ, she’s way too new, they need to give people time to play as/against her.
-No to Moira, she’s actually totally fine in the beta.
-No Reinhardt, he’s actually doing really well atm.
-No to Brig, she’s actually doing fine.
-Buffing Pharah without giving tanks, specifically, some sort of counterplay is a mistake.

You forgot to mention: Ana. Her abilities need to be heavily nerfed. No matter what the grandma simps say who can’t play another hero other than their overpowered grandma.

Buff: Tracer
Nerf: Sojourn

No to widowmaker. It’s not her fault that she’s more viable now than before thanks to there being less shield in the game. She still has her weakness on top of her strength, so she’s still balanced. She’s just annoying to face against if the widow is popping off. They just need to fix the maps that favors snipers too much.

With zenyatta, I still think his boop is kind of odd and they should rework it. Maybe instead of knocking back enemies, it just pushes back himself to create distance between him and the flanker.

His kick doing 50% more damage, I’m unsure how I feel about it, but I’m slightly in favor of it. Since you’ll only ever get in his melee range if decide to dive him. Hitscans won’t have to face his melee at all either. And with there being less shield in the game, it should be relatively easy to find the opening to snipe him. Not to mention having that melee as a fall back to attack enemies when you run out of orbs to shoot could come in handy as well.

His extra 25HP, I’m strongly in favor of it. It’s just his boop distance that I feel is a bit odd and unnecessary. His orb of discord could also use a rework as well if it’s still an unhealthy ability.

That’s actually a solid list right there

Hahahahahahaha what ?!?!?! Actually Ana needs to be buffed she’s too slow for OW2 !!
Bro because you are bad at the game and cant even kill the 2nd easiest support it doesnt mean that has to be nerfed… Do some aim trainning and you will be fine!

Thats the list. I agree

Sojourn , im not sure about this cause she can be fast killed if there is no junkerqueen that makes every teammate into a tank with her buff

Mercy :damage buff remove for a other strong skill for herself.
Constant damage buffs break the game balance so they should only exist as ults

Buff:
Bastion
Torbjörn
Mei (i think a rework will do better)
Symmetra

So…3 heroes that are utter trash in OW2…xD

Yes, nerf JQ. I want to wreck her even harder than I already am :laughing:.

I mean i really do think JQ is pretty balanced i just have the feeling like sigma with his shield how that needed a 2 second cooldown or ball with his grapple people are going to find an exploit here soon.

I can agree with Ana to an extent because while Mei and Brig and even doom from Alpha lose their CC, hers is the most powerful and the anti just hard counters hog. Don’t mess with anti either mobility sleep dart or health pool.

Widow is by far the sniper who benefits from the 5v 5 the most hanzo and ashe are where she needs to get to. Nobody is saying she should be punished for a higher skill ceiling but if a hero can kill 4 out of 5 within 10 seconds without an ult it is something to be looked at.

Pharmercy is a cancer yes, the only buff i would give is maybe an out of combat health regen after 4 to 5 secs just so she can sustain and you aren’t forcing a healer to be exclusively up in the air.
Yes i do realize health packs are a thing they just don’t favor pharah exposing herself to get to them.

I get where Blizzard is going with CC and i accept it but if they were to do that i think they can at least give mei maybe a cryo effect like a hypothermia which drains a lot like JQ bleed just not lifesteal. Perhaps a spike shield brig with bleed as well. Her shield bash feels absolutely useless at the moment except for mobility.

this isn’t overwatch one anymore.

Honestly doom is the only one that needs a buff right now. As for symmetry, she should just get reworked to support.
