While they didn’t touch Armor as a whole and left D.Va specifically untouched, the other changes we got have been overall great. Winston is a problem, but his issue is the armor, not his damage. At least it was some form of acknowledgment of his position in high ranks.
Ashe has been strong, and with the Mercy damage boost buff, she’s only going to get better. The reload nerf felt off because it didn’t address her main issue and just made her feel worse to play, but I’m not an Ashe player, so maybe it was a necessary evil.
Sombra’s nerf, while conceptually a good thing, doesn’t solve the main problem, which was her Virus impact damage. Just revert that, and we’re good.
Juno’s changes were absolutely amazing and I think have cemented her as a good pick overall. And now, with the fire rate changes she feels GREAT
No. It feels like they’re trying to cater to lower skilled players again by decreasing the room for error. You can spam away with the character and not be punished for missing shots.
Keeping Juno reliant on hitting shots gives the character a feeling of skillfulness rather than allowing her to repeatedly miss shots and still have value.
Why is it a step in the right direction when the devs actually just demonstrated they don’t understand any of the real problems? You even laid out all the points they actually missed.
To your Ashe point specifically. first she’s the strongest of the most irrelevant class so nerfing her makes the worse role even worse. Then, they nerfed her reload, the worst in the game. Is that the right direction?
Ashe did not deserve the reload nerf. I rather they nerf her damage for either scoped or unscoped damage but not touch her reload. It’s one of the worst in the game and they just made it worse.
