That hero is good where he belongs. He can continue to que with his tank and healer trio, outside of that he is toast.
at the best, they can give him a self heal back. i will go back to playing bastion. I played bastion since 2016 to ow2. When the new turret form realease it was no fun but just a hero to break shield through chokes.
Can we not? Bastion is very balanced at the moment and you made it sound like his turret form is OP in low level. People just need to all shoot at him or use 2 braincells and use cover and wait. I know that too much to ask for bronze players and they line up and getting killed, but its not like Bastion takes no skill to play.
Even in his turret form you need to be as precise as you need to be with Zarya to hit things.
At this point people need to shut up and stop trying to rework heroes who are not a problem and are currently balanced. Bastion works fine and is also sometimes played in high ranks. He has his niches like Torb, Sym and Mei. He is one of the most unique heroes and I dont want the devs touching him again.
I think he may need buffs to its mobility. The self rocket that makes him jump should do it at double the speed and double the distance/highness, maybe even more than that. He also would be funnier to play in that way lol
People not understanding basic things like ‘LOS the killing machine in turret form’ is NOT something that devs can fix. Because the issue is one of gamesense, not design.
If they removed a character because of that, then players like that will just move on to complaining about the next thing that slightly inconveniences them.
They’re not going to remove any character just because salty people on the low end of the bellcurve can’t track a single cooldown.
If I would buff anything on bastion it would be his ultimate. It’s painfully easy to dodge even when he’s shooting all 3 at a slow support. Make the impact zones bigger or land faster or something
