No, she is balanced now and I believe that she doesn’t need any nerfs now

As good as she is in a brawl, she’s very easily countered by ranged heroes or even heroes who ignore shields such as doomfist so i think she’s fine where she’s at, rn. Not to mention that with every new hero, people say they are overpowered until a few months later where people learn to counter them. Remember when people said doomfist was the most broken hero? or moira? While yeah they’re strong given the circumstance, they’re easily countered in others. so nah, brigitte is fine where she is at

my opinion :smiley:

She most likely needs something. Her stats are still unprecedented, she’s far too much an easy mode pubstomper hero.

At GM/OWL level she might be balanced. Outside of that though hard to make a case she is.

After she got the Rally/Sheid bash nerf,I think she is balance now.

Nope she is fine, people are learning. Her pick rate has already plummeted, its only a matter of time before the rest of her stats dip. I think in fact the rally nerf may eventually see her quite under picked. Right now it just slightly better then torbs armor pack ability.

I’d rather they look at Snipers so the counters to Brigitte aren’t rendered virtually useless themselves.

Not really much point picking Pharah or Junkrat when you can’t do anything about the Widowmaker or Hanzo playing Duck Hunt way in the backline where you can’t reach them.

I don’t know if shes overpowered, but she sure makes the game less fun. Not sure any amount of nerfs will change that though.

she has a minimum of 56.5% winrate

in every other game she would have been almost instantly

I’m reserving judgement for when Sym’s rework hits because it could potentially be a counter to her but as of right now I think she’s…okay. I don’t see her used on every map for every situation like Zen or Mercy so I think she’s fine for the moment.

nah, a non-niche hero with 57% winrate is fine :v

i’d like to see a change to her so that she doesn’t help run over orisa comps so easily and so that she doesn’t render non widow hitscans completely useless (and yes this is almost entirely because of the absurd amount of armor she can sling around… can’t chunk through that on anything that isn’t hanzo or widow)

but bugger if i can come up with that idea

I think its funny that hero who at GM is 7th overall win rate an within 1% point of the top 17 heros in win rate is considered OP broken.

Right. Because everyone plays in GM and there was never a hero that got a nerf without holding crazy unrealistic stats in GM. I remember that time when Junkrat was just totally destroying GM with an insane winrate and… wait, that never happened.

I think some people need to reevaluate what qualifies as OP. Mercy rework messed that up huge it seems. Now unless you’re near 100% must pick you can’t be a problem. Tell that to all the people that wanted Tracer nerfs.

not a nerf. A rework. This current version will either be F tier or Meta changer.

Meta changer could be good, but not when it basically replaces the meta and makes it more strict.

I think it proved she isn’t OP, learn to counter her, learn her range. Go even higher in skill the OWL and it shows except for ONE team she is hardly used and her stats are mediocre.

No, and from the stats I’ve seen they support this

and torb can get those up quite a bit I’ve gotten so many armor packs out at one point the capture point had extras that werent taken, so much for an ultimate ability
