It’s mostly GM, masters, and OWL though.
Farming blade for every 2 minutes for a chance of winning a fight is not fun. There isn’t any map that you want to run him on.
I would be okay with this but he’s been bad for about 2 years now in every single meta in that time span(excluding those three weeks where he was busted.)
Then, again, ask for a redistribution of power or a rework of his kit.
Turning 2 minutes of ult farming into 1:xx minutes of ult farming isn’t going to change anything about whats wrong with him.
If Blizzard would try to give every DPS 3-4 month of being META, it would take 2-3 years for a full rotation.
Which is what I’m hoping for, I want his lethality to be buffed and his ult charge to be nerfed.
Fair, but you rather pick doom cause doom over him as doom can get mid-fight value, while genji can’t.
GM isnt the only thing blizzard balances for.
Giving him more chip damage just encourages the playstyle of ult farming on Tanks even more.
They need to take a closer look on the Ultcharge/Blade/Nano puzzle and rearrange it in a way that allows them to buff his kit while making him far less reliant on his ult.
And you would rather pick Echo, Tracer, McCree and Ashe over Doomfist.
If your hero is middle of the pack then that literally implies that there are better options.
But it doesn’t make him bad or unviable.
I already calculated it, unlike 30 damage 29 doesn’t lead to any breakpoints on tanks. It only hits a very specific on on squishies(two body shot + melee.)
Nah there are maps where you want to play df, over those heroes. Not many, but genji doesn’t have that.
Nerf it by 10-20%, and he’s fixed.
pickrates… majority of the time… are just a popularity contest. there are a few exceptions that actually can hint on a hero’s power level but genji isnt one of them lol. the only time i would agree about that is June Genji for instance.
This is the ONLY buff he needs to make him more viable.
