The more people think she is “no skill” the more they will get out of learning to play her.
When I am helping someone and they are complaining they don’t have the mechanical skills to climb, and I throw them on Moira - usually they are like “why put me on a no skill hero, if I am having issues with aiming”
And they usually land under the SR they have on DPS and get stuck there.
I’m like, well obviously it isn’t aim which is holding you back here, so what is it? It is obviously some important skills you are missing here right? Usually they get the hint that there much more than aim as a basic skill set, and that aim isn’t even their biggest problem.
If people think that aim is the one true skill, I invite them to learn to play Moira, and when they find they hit their SR limit on her, and can’t climb, then it should start bringing the skills they are not good at into focus.
Mercy is too hit and miss for it, but Moira… Moira NEVER disappoints.
She brings into sharp focus your actual missing skills in the game, not the ones you think you have.
Kinda hard to beat “this character has active self healing, good evasion, and decent dueling” in a context where Supports are lacking in fun, and dying too much to flankers.
Moira will disappoint once she’s played in OWL, the balancing team will come for her soon enough. I bet it will take them 3 weeks to “adjust” her strength.
I’m convinced that the balancing team will do everything to keep only a small portion of heroes viable for OWL. She only needs to appear once and that’s a sign of strength. Ana needs to appear in 100% of matches to be considered slightly overtuned.
Ok well one there is no ELOs, it’s a beta with just quick play. And as far I’ve seen, ain’t nothin for MMR cause i’ve seen way too many skill ranges.
But if that’s what we’re doing, if ana’s team is going to be low elo and unable to peel, then using the same skill range. The enemy team will barely be able to comm to even coordinate a dive on the ana and the DPS flankers wouldn’t be good enough to get ana in the first place. Not a lot at least.
Not because he’s meta, but because he, the support who can help peel and kinda fill some of the niches an off tank does, rarely does on the ladder. They just Reddit Lucio or speedbot Brawl.
Only for people with other heroes in Diamond already.
This is the thing, I’ve not seen anyone get a lot higher in SR than they have on other heroes with her, and mostly people land quite a lot lower than the SR on their other heroes.
She is good at getting to your rank in support, if you are already good at the skills on other heroes to do so.
Or you can go the route of running zen with ana and just literally demolish everyone through pure damage. Though the zen player has to be able to land shots for that too work.
Queue times will NEVER be fixed. There will always be a role that is faster than others, and there will always be the role that takes a long asf time to get into a game with. This will always be a thing idk why we think it’s something that will just be gone with changes.
