Im seeing a lot of people say dps and supports are getting nerfed instead of dva and winston…
I can find no proof of this, and am only hoping its not true because it would be such a plainly obvious mistake.
We have to go bother Rupal for them

There was a vlog released on youtube not long ago and you could draw juno having less health now (225 from 250) and reins shield looks to be down to 1400 again (THANK THE GODS!!!) and I THINK specific heroes like genji and tracer were mentioned to get nerfs (and other high mobility heroes who should rely more on their tools than a high health pool to survive…at least that is what the devs think?)
I do not think OFFICIAL patch notes have been shown off yet, but they did say this week so…tomorrow probably?
Thats really really bad…
tracer i understand, shes oppresive in all ranks, and yes im a genji main but really? his tools arent as good as they think… cause it relies on killing stuff. The global health buff still meant he was good cause he had the same survivability % as everyone else. If hes going to 225 then thats a problem, meaning he can die fastre but will kill the same. meaning his mobility wont get off cd cause he cant kill someone.
I actually agree. I DESPISE Genji as a character, and a really good one is a monster, but generally speaking, like with most widows/sombras…he isn’t THAT big of a threat. I haven’t really had issues with genji since like…season 1. Tracer, and the HIGH mobile tanks like dva and DF…they need a groin shot with a nerf bat XD
Juno being considered mobile is a lol for me

yeah, but most of us genji mains arent monsters, we just think we are
I can confirm every genji main has main character syndrome
They reduced Junes’ health? I…
At least they make pretty skins.
I wouldn’t jump to any conclusions, it could have been from a video recorded before the playtest. It aint looking good though.

I am jumping, hopping, and skipping into the great ocean. This had better be a compensation nerf for a headshot multiplier. Or else.

Nerfing genji is always good.

In no situation is this true
People are talking about this snippet:
Hero Balance Updates
We also have new incoming hero balance changes to shake things up for Season 12. We have been seeing a lot of mobile heroes become favorite go-to picks and have a huge advantage in the current state of the game, so we’re doing a pass to reduce the health on multiple Damage and Support heroes. Lifeweaver is also getting notable updates to improve the quality of the Petal Platform and how it can be counter-played, along with changes to Healing Blossom and Rejuvenating Dash. Look for these updates in our patch notes coming later next week.

Which he can do in the literal blink of an eye. Dash headshot combo and dash melee headshot combo can effectively kill any squishy instantaneously. He has high damage potential mixed with hyper-mobility. He needs a weakness that isn’t god-like accuracy.
Sure, the problem is that 99% of the time that doesn’t work

I mean, Genji has the tools to get in and do that consistently. All it takes is some practice to master it. He is a complex hero after all.
true, but again, you can do it consistent against a bot, but you cant do it consistently against an enemy that knows what you are capable of. No real player will let you get close enough to pull off the combo. If they did, everyone would be genji in t500, and one quick search shows us that there are more junkrat 1 tricks in t500 than genjis.
I saw on a Lumin post that defence matrix is going back to 3 seconds but that’s not a reliable source
Dude Monkey also needs to lose like 10 dps
winston and dva both are stupid oppresive
after them its gonna be sigma, but really all tanks need a small hp nerf just due to the insanity of armor changes
