He is still the weakest tank. 
Why can’t they they make his slow and easy to avoid projectile 2-shot squishes like the previous seasons? Those aren’t a one-shot, are they? 
Why do you only give him 25 armor? That is not going to fix hardcounters like Bastion from melting him easily.
You could also increase his shield’s health a little instead. Or even better, just reduce his speed debuff a bit when he is holding it so he feels a bit less vunerable?
No tank is babied quite like Reinhardt, truly

No other tank also has his win percentage. There are few one trick Reins sitting comfortably in top 500.
That’s not true. There’s always Sigma.
Though, to be honest, I’m starting to think Overwatch players just hate all the tanks in general. Except for good ol Winton! He gets a pass.
I saw something like that on Overbuff, and I have to say I’m not too sure about the stats on that site. Whenever I watch videos of Reinhardt on youtube, it doesn’t look too good unless the Rein is hard pocketed or playing with a coordinated team. I assume that’d contribute to his high win percentage? Because actually playing Reinhardt is pretty brutal.

You’re arguing with people who never played Rein so think he’s fine or he has high win rate in their gold games so he doesn’t need buffs
Rein V Bastion is not that bad. Bastion is lowkey horrible this season. You don’t facetank his turret form with shield and your health pool, just keep it up long enough to stall and to get to cover. Or in recon form you enable your DPS with your shield to kill him, he’s not exactly hard to hit or that survivable
Healing him should reduce his CDs, while he keeps his shield up at least.
Rein needs more shield health at the very least. I found his power was ok but he needs a lot more defense. Rein is getting there but not quite. Also no changes to ball was unexpected. He needs slight damage buffs
I’m not crazy, he used to have 2,000 shield health right? And that was back when there was 2 tanks?
That would go a long way towards helping him close distance, enable his team, and find cover.
Hammond is getting a mini rework at the start of next season, so that’s probably why no changes
And people who use Overbuff as real evidence for something. Can’t forget about them.
Used to have 2000 for the longest time and then during double shield, they reduced it to 1600. In OW2, it’s 1200 for some inexplicable reason, iirc
I suppose but not trying to make the hero you’re reworking just a little bit nicer before you rework them always leaves a sour taste in my mouth
Eh, Hammond’s fine, he’s just hard to play same as always.
