Can we Nerf Tracer Now?

Now that you guys Have Ruined Tanks can We Nerf Tracer?
She has Insane Damage
Insane Mobility
Tiny Hitbox
a Get Out of Jail Free card
(ok I get allot of fire for calling recall get out of jail free card I consider it a get out of jail free card for 2 reasons: 1. It get’s you out of sticky situations by either regaining hp you had before a 1v1 and reloading your clip or completely getting you out of something
and a really good ult
I have 2 suggestions for this
Either Nerf to Damage
Blinks
and pulse
Or the more sensible option of not making her feel bad (like you have done with tanks) and make her have a strong counter
not a hard counter like old brig
but a hero who can kill her
Other heroes have this
Why does tracer Not?
(Or Mcree but there never going to nerf him probably not tracer either sadly :frowning: )
Edit: To all Tracer Mains and sympathizers I don’t hate you I just don’t like your hero sorry
I don’t think Get good is a good excuse for this hero though and I think after all the power creep nerfs dps got due to double shield its time for them to get toned down Tracer never got an actual town down nerf for this
she lost what 1 meter of range? it makes almost no difference
while I think she needs heavier nerfs than range I will admit I am bias on the matter
though this is just my opinion

At this point, Tracer’s not even unique is the power department. There are many strong characters in the game with their own unique BS. It is nice that Tracer getting below a particular threshold means she usually tries to recall immediately.

If you can get a body shot on Tracer right away as McCree you’ll probably have forced out recall. Which puts it on a pretty hefty cooldown. It is hard to punish 3sec blinks, but if you count them you can tend to abuse it.

Still an annoying character. As most charactrs in overwatch lol

Tracer is string but not broken, even pro players raplace her in many comps

She needs a nerf big time. It’s very difficult dealing with her as a support main. I’d use Brig or Moira but Brig is useless against Tracer - even though she’s supposed to be the one to counter her.

Shes only good because of Ball/Zen

shes also by far the hardest DPS in the game

also pulse is def not s tier, and recall isnt get out of jail free card

She has high damage and mobility because she has a high skill ceiling, you need to get close to the target have good aim whilst avoiding damage in a small space of time before you get swatted because she is squishy. She is the games glass cannon.

If you cant manage her zipps and recall then you are dead… if you cant aim you do no damage.

Why not nerf McFTH or Doomfist or Hammond or Sym or Tor or Nano-blade guy or any other face rolling, high mobility, low-risk high reward turret auto aim heroes in the game. Why nerf one of the heroes’ that takes skill to play?

If you’re main support and she is killing you, then she is going her job, don’t blame her, blame your team for not protecting you as they should be doing.

I like how you trash talk ball when his weapon is functionally identical to tracers.

First time I’ve ever seen anyone say that about her.

Pulse is hardly terrible, but S-tier? Even pros can only manage around a 50% stick rate and even when it lands, it’s rarely going to be more than one kill and even that can be mitigated by a lot in today’s Overwatch.

I don’t know about that…

Debatable.

For sure

Mehhh recall is like fade, they just say “Okay bye” and get away from whatever they need to get away

? I’m Plat sure I don’t play dps but Pulse is still really good even if you only have a 50% kill rate that is a free pick

Brig is good Don’t get me wrong but not against tracer
not at all
Tracer can completely outrange her Brig has a very low health pool and if you by the chance are able to stun mele whip her 1. It doesn’t do enough damage to kill her 2. she has recall

Good luck landing it. High level players play her well for a reason.

Another “good luck landing it”

Glass cannon

Tracer is balanced, mate.

Me and roadhog do just fine with that little brit! Once that aussie wannabe gets into my trap, she’s all mines!

Roadhog pretty good with his hook, she’s gonna get a face full of scrap metal for her troubles! Hahaha!


Junkrat: Cheers, mate! The cavalry’s here! (Mocking Tracer)
Tracer: That’s my line!

Only when players know how to use it right, and not a lot of people do

Part of her kit

Most heroes have a “get our of jail free card” in some way.

She’s in an okay state rn.
