Echo can't copy Echo because...?

I have yet to see a vapid, whiny “u cant do better >:,c” response on the forum that’s actually accurate or productive.
I could make a version of this concept on the Workshop, without any internal development tools (I already have made other “copy” abilities, inspired by Kirby in the past). Other similar threads on “why cant X hero do Y” have preceded (though likely not caused, in small numbers) Blizzard to fix what seem like oversights in the past.

The problem here is that you’re encouraging me to waste my time on a mode no one will play, lest I take the time to integrate Echo into a larger-scale, higher-effort custom mode with the Ultimate fix included.

What /I’m/ trying to do is make Blizzard’s own decision/investment seem like a better use of time/effort by offering the idea that we should further value consistency on when the Ultimate can be initiated. Like I said before, tools already exist that let the devs hot-swap ability cooldowns, disable abilities, etc etc, and you guys are just giving Blizzard a free pass because “coding hard” or “echo cant be echo xD” or “unavoidable infinite ult loop”, or some other reason I’ve already responded to to no avail because none of you learned how to read.

Consider what you would do in response to me actually making my own version of this before you issue a dare that will just waste my time. I’m willing to bet you haven’t bothered.

(also shoutouts to the other replies for making this place so toxic that the forum mods actually did their jobs around here)

Apart from being a meme, what would be the point?

Are you expecting a reply here? I’ve already given several that answer your question and more and you’ve proven you won’t read them

Whoops. I replied to the wrong person :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

Go ahead and explain to me what would become unbalanced about allowing Echo to copy Echo whilst restricting uses of her Ult as a copy.

Take as much time as you need.

(mods will get to your self-flagged reply in time, you can stop editing it thanks) :thinking:

:thinking: It’s called balance. :sweat_smile:

Took zero seconds to figure that out. :wink:

Cool, you managed to quote me in a whole separate bump without even marking it as a reply-- instead of just adding a note to the first one.

Can you answer my question now? (“No I can’t, ma’am” is an acceptable answer btw)

:joy: Others have already sufficiently answered you. I was just putting a bow on it. :yum:

The point of her ULT is to duplicate an enemy & charge a duped ULT. Not duplicate to build up another duplicate to build up another duplicate to build up another duplicate… :roll_eyes:

Oh, so you DO know how to read then? Suspicious that you glossed over the points of mine that ruin what you’re going for here. Like…

So, again, do you have am actual response to what I just said or not?

Maybe this will help; :thinking: :joy: :joy: :eyes: :ok_hand: :sunglasses: :sunglasses: :roll_eyes: :person_shrugging:t6: :gun:?
My cancer speak is a little rusty, but I can re-try the question with dumbed-down English if it’s your third language or whatever’s going on here

Would’ve been cool to see them give her something unique if she copied herself. Like Ana being able to nano herself in death match. She can’t do that anywhere else, so it’s a unique kind of experience.

“Copying…me?! 500% to my own abilities!” suddenly Echo goes into total mayhem mode.

edit: everyone in this thread is so angry, wtf,lol

Obviously, it is because this mechanism could produce “infinite” loops that create problems in the game. :laughing:

Echo copies echo.
Gets ultimate.
someone shuts down that ult.
Gets ult again and copies another one.

“she pointed out that im pathetically unoriginal and how i dont want to read wwWWHHAAAAA big meanie”

I am also bored right now because I am installing the new Warzone update. Have a great day!

This is not infinite loop mate, this is about getting multiple lifes.
Think before shaming dude.

*lives
and…??

Because you would keep getting shorter and shorter ult times, eventually being unkillable and completely independent of anyone else’s actions, but still a pressuring the enemy team?

I won’t blame you if you just wanna delete this one I actually can’t even tell what you’re trying to say or why you replied to that comment lmao
