Looks promising, however, i think Lifeweaver needs way more buffs. As a support main, i al very excited for the new Hero, looks very cool!

Finally Zen’s discord orb is getting a look at… It’s taken how many years now?
The change will probably be a number adjustment from 25% to 20%. At least that’s something.

Torb and Sym are perfectly fine as they are, they are in a good spot balance wise and have their own identity.
Why are we forcing changes just for the sake of it and trying to homogenize everything?
It’s Mei all over again…

No look at S rank Ramattra? He provides too much value for too little effort with very forgiving gameplay. Needs a look at.

At this point, is there anyone believes a word Aaron Keller reads that Activision Blizzard King writes for him?

Dude, go back to being a level designer.

So S6 will be pure brawl meta.

Buffs to Rein and Orisa, plus Discord nerfs. So Orisa will never die, JQ will be unkillable in decent hands, Ram will curb stomp all over teams that don’t load up on tank busters, and Rein will have shatter every team fight.

I can’t wait to see how hard tanks end up getting nerfed once Discord isn’t holding them in check. The inevitable dps crying WILL result in a backlash that absolutely murders the tank role.

FIX MATCH MAKER


I think I summarized that in a very easy-to-understand statement.

Constant one-sided face-stomps by Solo Q pugs being thrown into the den of wolves is BS and uncalled for. No more.

Not kewl. Not fun. very wasteful of electricity, bandwith and company resources.

Nobody cares about what skins another player is wearing. They just want to have fun, so stop basing your match system around whom has skins and whom doesn’t. And for once, just once try and actually apply yourselves at trying to make fun matches and not this “cheese” pseudo competitive match style that tries to make everyone hyper aggressive and rage all the time at one another.

Quickplay is a mess and we need fun matches, not “this”.

Please, and Thank you.

I see the support hero being Inca Empire themed with her abilities being a combination of Brigitte Symetra & Mercy. Flight abilities is like Pharah

I’m looking forward to the mid season patch! I’m glad that discord orb is finally getting a nerf. I’m glad that Rein & Orisa are getting buffs. And, I’m glad that Torb & Symmetra’s turrets are getting nerfed. I’m looking forward to the other changes, too.

Rein’s health nerfs made him really bad to play. And, Orisa’s over health nerf made her Fortify useless for survivability. She just melts when using it. Both of these tanks struggle with getting close to the enemies.

Game balance this season continues to be in great shape.

What?

Like what???

How out of touch can you be???

However is responsible for balance in OW2 has zero clue what they’re doing. Previous patches are a perfect example of that.

And the worst part is…that if not 5v5, NONE of this dumb reworks, changes, and issues would happen because this game was made for 6v6 in mind for a reason.

All you had to do is rework one hero. Orisa.

Discord nerf is nice but no mention of their precious Ana as usual, “and several others” better include an anti-heal nerf v.v

They seem to think Hanzo is balanced after losing 5 damage and turrets are now apparently a problem???

I am at least looking forward to seeing what the new support can do :slight_smile:

Buff orisa and rein.

No Doomfist changes…wow

The problem is, and I contend you know you are doing this, is that these new game modes including push and ‘flashpoint’ as you are calling it, along with your so-called balance changes are all pushing the game toward a certain kind of ‘balance.’ But this balance is balanced towards your own profit and supporting your egregious and usurious selling of skins and battle passes. The games are a toss-up. The closer it can come to straight up ‘gambling’ the better for you and the worse for 99% of players. It’s one thing to enable ‘anyone’ to win at the game; it’s another to enable no one to win, by stripping all legitimacy and fairness from the how the game works. Push was a failure because it wasn’t even fun, but the idea behind this is the same.

The more I think about this, the more I feel like the balance team deserves a slap.

Of course Cass overtook Hanzo. You made him busted.

I’m looking forwards to the mini series, new map and hero. I really like the visuals for the new map.

“Lifeweaver’s impact was much greater than before.”
Very funny so long as his ult remains the same. Scrap it and give him something new.

Keller still leaving a poor taste in everyone’s mouth… nothing new in the post, just more ramblings of “we are making a new game mode… that we will sell you access to For a price” more monetization advertisements… please get on fixing the balance and take a break from fishing in our wallets

I’m just awaiting to hear how flashpoint sucks. Seems like a mouthful. It kinds reminds me of cp_steel. Kinda complex map and in the end no one wants to play it. Same goes for tc_hydro. I love the map but i rarely find players playing that map.

You know Flashpoint is free, yeah?


Was my favourite map back in the day :smiling_face_with_tear:

“Game balance this season continues to be in great shape”???
What are you talking about?
The balance as you call it is a complete, frustrating, and unfair mess. It is ‘balanced’ to help sell these junk cosmetics, not make players feel satisfied. The question for you all is, “how low can we go”? The bigger piece of garbage the players will swallow while still playing, is all the better for you. Combine these toxic, abusive, shortsighted and corrupt business practices with virtue signaling and you have the recipe for something truly reprehensible!
