Classic.. moira

Classic has taught me that I enjoy this game far more without moira being involved.

any dps mains and support mains who do not play moira, let me ask you, is moira balanced? is she fun to fight in any scenario? and why?

Moira is a free kill. I enjoy when people select the Moira role in open queue, however. That’s her place.

I think Moira’s a boring character to play and a tragic waste of a good concept but she’s hardly an issue or a major source of frustration for me.

She’s easy value yeah, but that value ain’t high. All she really does is heal bot and survive well enough and some tickle damage, almost any other Support brings more to the table and is more annoying to play into.

I’d say she’s balanced and usually not overly irritating to play against. Her damage per second done is the lowest in the game for a primary weapon and her means of improving that damage also makes it easier to take her out since her bulk will be compromised.

On the flipside, if she chooses the bulk, her damage is quite miserable and easy to sustain through if the option is available. Otherwise, she doesn’t become that bulky and you can still beat her 1v1 as long as you hit your shots.

As for her team application, she’s just fine. Nothing too noteworthy about her in team fights. She does modest damage with pretty good, but limited, healing for her team.

Now if you aren’t good at hitting shots on her or your team just could not care less that there’s a Moira in your backline, then yeah she can be pretty annoying. But if your team doesn’t completely zone out then Moira is pretty basic in terms of dealing with her.

You know that shes balanced when people cry about her dueling potential while also calling her the worst support for her lack of team utility: she cant do everything and pays the price for her power niche. I enjoy going 4 tanks 1 moira and building 2 coalescences in the first fight because that is where her niche is the strongest. I dont enjoy going moira in a jq/pharah/sombra kinda qp comp because it pidgeonholes me into a third dps and that is suboptimal gameplay

When moira was released, half the people loved her. Other half thought she has too low skill floor.

Some people think shes hard to kill.

Others think shes easy to kill.

And you know, i think everyones right.

What i will say, is that i feel a little sad for moira players, because they seem like they genuinely like to help the team. Which is admirible! Theyre trying theyre hardest with their limited range…but the team is usually just…everywhere…

They waste pee wildly as their team indecicively zigzags and ADADs out it…

I respect moiras for their intent.

Unless its a true DpsMoira, in which case, you are inhuman slime. Filth. – I get sweaty scalp just thinking about dpsmoiras. One step below Roadhog players in FFA.

Most balanced hero in the game

The problem I have always had with moira is she’s the first support hero that provides no support

If you can’t manage to win a fight against the one hero with the lowest dps in the game, the problem is you.

Classic taught me that all the heroes added after launch were more pointless than I thought.

Her burst heal potential is too high, like with many other supports. Other than that she’s relatively fine. The only support i struggle to counter her with is mercy XD

Haven’t played the past months, but Moira is probably the least annoying support to play against - no strong utilities that negate your play, can only damage you from close range, has limited pocketing ability, an ult with a damage potential most supports can more or less negate…

Genuinely can’t understand the anger against the character.

I think what it boils down to is that Genji can’t deflect the purple noodle. To be fair, it must be embarassing for a cyberninja to die to linguine.

Shes just skill check character since most people are most likely in bronze-plat. Above that moira that flanks and plays too agressively without heals just get punished easily and get one clipped by that sweaty tracer in duels.

Yup, was a Genji main before her release

I love how Moira is zigzaging ADAD and crouching against me all the time when I m playing Junk :laughing: like why tf crouching? Am I able to do headshot? Those character and player is so low… low in every way

Yes… But I’m the guy with a Moira profile icon, so I don’t think my opinion is desired here…

If you think that Moira is your biggest problem, then you dont ask the right questions.
