Careful, you’re going to attract some deranged Gengu-bot that’s going to write 4 paragraphs on why Genji would explode with the force of a thousand suns if his health was 225 and that we are average skrubs that don’t understand the reason he wasn’t nerfed and so on.

The injustice gets even greater when you consider that Echo has 225 hp.

It’s simple really. His mains would cry a flood of tears and act like he’s unplayable like they always do.

Echo still being 225 is baffling to me lmao. She dropped off a CLIFF after getting her health nerfed.

She was very bad after the first nerf but got some decent buffs since then. Also her perks are very good.

tbf. she’s only gotten one buff since then. I woulda much rather them nerfed something else instead of the health.
pharah being 225 makes sense because she can sit at a ridiculous range and spam. echo doesn’t really have that luxury due to her spread, so trying to play echo where you need to be much closer and you can just get swatted out the air like it’s nothing is just horrible lol. it’s why i stopped playing her altogether.
she can find uses but it’s just needlessly more effort than just playing pharah.
Anyone who thinks Genji deserves 225 HP has no idea why 225 HP exists and should be permanently banned from speaking, just about ever really.

Here from the devs themselves:
“Mobility is very powerful and we would like for there to be more of a tradeoff for the flexibility that it brings, especially as we add speed boosting abilities by welcoming Juno to the game. We’re moving a handful of heroes to a 225 HP maximum and in some cases increasing potency elsewhere in their kit.”
It was entirely about mobility lmao.
Genji is one of the most mobile heroes in the game and for SURE more mobile than Freja.

and it’s all going to be one long, incoherent, run-on ramble with no grammar or formatting whatsoever
Genji deserves 225 hp. There is no reason why he shouldn’t when he literally has an increased base movement speed. You can’t tell me that he isn’t high mobility.

Alright, so we add a debuff to that perk.
225 on a perk that gives her more mobility than Moira.
It’s seems quite obvious why he didn’t get hp nerf if you understand how he is played, and how other heroes that got hp nerfed are played
Genji relies more on being close ranged than other heroes who have 225 hp. He is more likely to take more damage and from different angles.
Freja looks like she’s another hero shooting from range, with some mobility to escape if being dived. Makes sense if she gets 225 hp. Lose the range or mobility then she can be 250. The same is true for other 225 hp heroes. DPS heroes that is, supports play by a different set of rules.
That is not to say Genji can’t be 225 hp - give him more shuriken damage.

And on top of it he has a defensive ability.
The guy has one of the best mobility in the game.
One of the hardest hitbox to hit in the game for a dps.
A parade that blocks everything but beams.
A dash that resets on assists and kills.
A double jump
Climbing on walls
An increased movement speed at base.
(And a lifesteal during his ult now ig ?)
And he doesnt have the 225 hp like every mobility heroes ?
But freja does while she has a slower and predictable mobility a very normal hitbox.
And she even lock herself in place while aiming.
What is that flawed logic lmao.

I still do not understand how Genji is not 225hp, they made Hanzo 225 before Genji- but then the devs reverted back his HP, but kept his damage.
