Just so I don’t have to pick Ana if I’m playing QP and someone else hasn’t done so already.
Also, it might resolve this GOATS issue.

Keep armor pack, take away most healing from brig
Have rally be a lesser transcendence
Make brig a single target healer and make her passive maybe give armor that dissipates after a short while.
How often would it recharge?
Every time she hit a target?
On the start dissipating timer?
I think it would make her stronger rather than weaker.
HP lasts forever unless hit.
Armor that dissipates isn’t as strong, you have to constantly be attacking someone for it to stay, and it should have a maximum cap.
true, but now you have 2 forms of defense.
Anything which stops one shots ending a hero is very strong, and temp armor is very good at that.
On the other hand… being good at making something other than tanks survive one shots would make non goats teams more relevant.
Oh.
OH!!!
I see why the change in how temp armor healing etc was put in. We had a theory that the next hero would be anti goats… Because those changes were not for Brigitte.
And that is how they will do it.
Strong temp health / shielding for DPS would make goats far less of a thing.
I think you will see that power in action, and soon, but not on Brigitte.
Yeah, we don’t have a temporary health mechanic.
But that could be used on tanks and healers, too. Not just DPS.
I’m still not sure why the least picked support needs the most nerfs…
The game has a temp health mechanic, and it just got changed on how it works. There are just no heroes which use it yet.
Agreed. But DPS would benefit from it the most. It turns one shot kills into something they can recover from.
Currently if they get one shot, no amount of healing will save them.
As long as it doesn’t make the META even stronger I don’t mind.
I usually wouldn’t mind because at my rank I never see GOATs anyways. But the hero nerfs and buffs for goats does affect those that don’t see that META.
Let’s hope it’s a healthy addition!
100% agree there!
The game could do with some healthy additions.
Repair Pack is fine. Inspire and Rally are what make Brig cancer.

Nerf Luico, Zen, or Ana instead. Either of these three keeping GOATs alive than Brigitte.
Ana isn’t usually run in GOATs, though.
That I have Ana as option number 3. Luico is the first suspect though. Healing aura plus Speed boost.
It’s usually Lucio, Brigitte, Zen.
Before that it was Moira, then Ana, then zen.
Ana isn’t really an issue, as isn’t Moira, because they’re not an essential part of the GOATs meta. They can be run into it but they’re not the first choice.
Also, most players never see GOATs outside of the OWL.
Directly nerfing meta defining heroes that aren’t strong out of a META, a meta we casual players rarely ever get a chance to play, doesn’t seem very fair to me.
Everyone talking about nerfing Supports (again, shocker) when THIS IS A TANK META. I get that playing tank is stressful but in literally every Trinity (Heal/Tank/DPS) game it is that way. Tanks do too much damage, when Zarya can melt face why bring a squishy DPS? Nerfing Brig for the 11th TIME DIRECTLY (nvm all the indirect nerfs too) still isn’t going to make GOATS replaced except on niche maps. Either a direct damage nerf to certain tanks (Rein = hammer and pin, Zarya M1/M2, Monkey leap dmg) or an introduction of a slow mechanic to counter Lucio Speed and/or Dva boosting (I know for some weird reason people hate CC tho) is the only thing that will significantly weaken GOATS.
Regardless, at this point if they don’t undo some of the earliest nerfs to Brig they may as well delete her because she will be like reverse Reaper (never used anywhere but the highest levels on a few Control maps where GOATS is still viable but NEVER in lower ranks where Reaper is still in literally every game).
Saw GOATS once in a QP game. Was against an Six stack. I was playing Junkrat at the time. Easy Rip tire for days. But other than that I haven’t really much ran into it or Dive exactly.
interesting take on her passive, but i can’t see her being a single target healer.
