Cassidy’s kit is so useless, a short roll, deadeye is a trash ult that be cancelled by 4 second Doom CC, A scuffed flashbang with 3x the cooldown of Dooms CC or twice as long as Orisa javelin who can take you out of your ultimate, A hitbox bigger than any hitscans with the same hp. Raidboss tanks running you down and you can’t even CC them. You nerfed the perk that let you one shot body Tracer with flashbang.
You wonder why every dps player left to Marvel Rivals, this is part of the reason why, we got 3 far superior Cassidy’s. Winter Soldier, Hela, Phoenix.
Give him back flashbang CC, create another hand cannon hero without the worst kit, biggest hitbox for a hitscan in the game.
Overwatch 1 McCree was peak with flashbang CC, old TTK, bring it back.

In return we got silver bullet
I refuse to elaborate argue if you must but I fear this is the cowboy’s must pick perk
Yeah, with Silver bullet his M1 falloff should be reverted back to 20-30. Sounds rational.
If you need cc to have use with a kit you need to look at your skill. CC dependent kits are terrible for the game.
you mean the lowest his range ever was, made him literally useless. Cassidy had 25-45m season 3, it’s 25-35m now
that’s what his whole kit is based around and they removed it

I’m sure there will soon be a lot of trolls in this thread who will say that he’s fine, despite the fact that his winrate is 45-46% lol.
He has very poor kit, strictly tied to cooldowns, without flashbang it is difficult to counter aggressive, mobile characters, add to this HP nerf(why does Genji have the same HP as Cas, lol?), then the range nerf.
His useless ultimate, which is used to reload the gun, is not even worth mentioning.
Why isn’t Genji getting nerfed with 54-55% winrate? He clearly needs a HP reduction given his mobility and deflect. But instead, they’re nerfing HP of immobile, large cowboy, lmao.

He’s played in OWL pretty often. He’s not useless. 
Cassidy still melts players even without the hard CC, he never really lost the CC to begin with when Blizzard were toying around with his abilities in the early years.
You already can’t use movement abilities while HINDERED, you should be able to quickly dispatch players who get up close like that. While it was cool to have a mini Mei ult that stopped people dead in their tracks, or having the Heat Seeking Missile drag people to Brazil, such abilities should be used sparingly.
So no, I don’t think pressing [ E ] to hard CC players should ever come back.
