Hope for the next experimental after the"balance" that they have done to Mc Cree they also start to look at Hanzo :thinking: specially at Storm Arrows

Is that what dictates balance for millions of players? What a joke.

Well this last one was the 27th of May, if we are lucky the next one will be the 24th of June, last Thursday of the month :thinking:

Summer showdown starts June 25th. My best guess is July 1st. If the pattern continues. Sadly 5v5 might have caused the slowdown of balance patches { for 6v6 }.

Hanzo will most likely never change bc of the “muh skill” crowd.

Nope, is broken :sweat_smile:, that ability can do 350 of damage and also can do headshots, they need to do one of these 3 nerf:

Remove 1 arrow

This ability doesn’t do headshot

Or the damage reduced to 60 per arrow

One of these 3 at least, is a tankbuster :sweat_smile:

Skill is something only hitscans have.

Motion denied.

most likely not since there probably going to balance for owl where right there he is rarley getting picked and probably just make an excuse to nerf echo again

Yeah storm arrow is too good at deleting tanks imo

i dont think you can use stats like that though because you can make anything look broken for example reaper can do 240 damage with one shot of his primary fire alone and if you shot 2 you can a zarya not even an ability you see how if you put it that way you can make anything sound broken.

Reaper for do 240 in one second needs to be 1 meter from his target, even with the spread buff from 3 months ago, and he has only that to do damage, nothing else, Hanzo instead can use Storm from any distance and destroy everyone in 1.25 second😅

15

ik though but your putting it in a perfect sense not eveyone is going to hit all the shots just like any reaper there not going to get 240 shots every time

Agree with that, but think about tanks right, is easier and also safer to do 350 of damage from the distance with 5 arrows than 3 bodyshot from 1 meter with 60 pellets that can do 360 of damage, im not saying that Reaper should do more damage or stuff like that, just saying that is a little bit unfair :sweat_smile:

does that mean widow is op then since she can do 300 with primary fire and two shot tanks sounds op right but combined with the weekneses just like hanzo it balances it out a main weakness is non consistent damage and to make up for the weakness is storm arrows but honestly yeah i dont think they should nerf hanzo but just kinda rework like more consistent damage but less tank shredding

I respect more a Widowmaker that needs at least to aim a little bit to kill anyone than an ability that everyone can use at any distance to abuse it, just for do an example of comparison, Storm is faster and deadlier than 1 Fan the Hammer, these abilities should be used for “finish” an enemy rather than obliterate him :thinking:

my spelling was absolutely garbage i had to rewrite it
