So, again, Overbuff is not accurate. And D.Va’s kda is always skewed because demechs don’t count as deaths. So every time you fail to kill the baby D.Va and she remechs that didn’t count as a death, but it basically was
Also because of D.Va’s primary fire you don’t have to contribute much towards an elim for it to count. She doesn’t get as many final blows as you would think. And only Blizzard has that stat.
I did look it up and you are actually wrong. .
According to Overbuff, this season, D.Va has a 2.83% pick rate and 51.48% win rate. Meanwhile, Reinhardt has a 3.88% pick rate and a 56.42% win rate. Both in GM by the way. So like how is it D.Va that’s the problem even using that as a source?
Oh and Juno has a 9.33% pick rate with a 52.6% win rate. So higher pick rate and win rate and just got buffed.
Like I said, I don’t put stock in Overbuff’s accuracy and there’s obviously context around new heroes because everyone wants to play them. But Juno has a better win rate and pick rate by a lot.
You aren’t using this season’s stats. You’re using this month which is mostly last season before the nerf. So you aren’t even correct using Overbuff stats.
How are people still using Overbuff as if its a reliable source of information when half the playerbase is on private profiles, a quarter are on alts probably throwing so thats 1 quarter left playing properly.
And this link is pointing at incorrect data. I told you that you can’t use the “this month” filter. That’s pulling mostly season 11 data. You need to use the actual season 12 filter.
To do that, click on the hero then select the role. Then you can filter by season.
It’s going to look like this
Then scroll down and you’ll see Rein and D.Va exactly as I said. D.Va’s pick rate and win rate are not even that high.
You can contrast this against the monthly pick rate and see both have dropped by quite a bit meaning the nerf worked.
And I’d be careful about using kda. We’ve already explained that D.Vas is and always has been inflated. It’s high when she’s bad too. You don’t want to draw attention to the very high support kda values because it would be very easy for people to make a big deal about those.
In GM, win rates are typically over 50%. When they aren’t, it’s actually troubling. D.Va’s win rate is actually fine right now.
Rein’s win rate is too high, and I agree it’s a problem but the devs have said before that they don’t tend to nerf Rein as much because even though he’s statistically broken basically everyone seems to still think he’s weak.
Honestly he’s super strong right now. But even his pick rate isn’t broken.
Ayanga, I’ve shown you that the win rate and pick rate in your original post aren’t accurate, but you haven’t made a correction. It’s time for you to fix those numbers now that you know they aren’t accurate.
This original post WAS about last season, legitimately didnt think people would think .5 would make such a difference, and based on my specific experince this season it 100% has not.
Now this obviously appears debatable soooo currently we can do as agreed upon earlier and just stalemate and wait for more avaliable data later into the season.
