Let’s face it guys no matter how much they continue to nerf orisa sigma bap brig etc it’s unhealthy for the game. Heroes shouldn’t suffer just because they’re good in 1 specific comp.
Remember when orisa was our first new anchor tank and people were trying out orisa comps and found success? Now u can’t run a single orisa as ur anchor now since her shield got heavily nerfed because of her synergy with sigma. Its not fair for heroes to be dumpstered because the synergy of those two is OP.
The release of sigma (or any other shield tank with long ranged damage) was inevitable it was bound to happen. But allowing TWO of the same kind of tanks is beyond broken. And as long as they don’t change how the system works we will keep seeing pointless nerfs and angry costumers since their favorite heroes keep getting dumpstered.
Orisa sigma and bap are fine on their own. None of them is absurdly overpowered. None of them are OP outside of double shield.
It’s time Blizzard. Put an end to this nightmare of constant nerfs
Baptiste & Sigma have such a (relatively) high skill ceiling with their bloated kits that, compared to other supports and tanks, respectively, they make heroes like Moira & Dva obsolete.
It’s a design issue disrupting balance, not the heroes just ‘beingop’
Yes and personally I would play main tank more if this was a thing, because it would mean that shield heroes could actually be good without needing a second shield.
Well blizzard shot themselves in the foot with that then. Back in the days you’d see a lot of orisa players or rein players and they had fun. Now no one ques for tank to play an orisa that has been heavily nerfed with a joke of a shield.
The constant nerfs because of DS is what makes a lot of those players frustrated and they just end up leaving the game so it’s no surprise to me that a lot of them left.
I still believe that this system would actually make players be a bit more interested in playing anchor tank. They’d finally receive the buffs they deserve they will finally feel like they hold the power again.
Que times are definitely a problem yes but they could also let it prioritize ur role (anchor or offtank) and after a certain set time let’s say 10mins the MM would put u in a game with let’s say double offtank. Now one of the offtank can pick a shield or they could run double off tank.
True, but I think if you buffed the anchor tanks up to a certain level you might actually see winston played with one of them. Also it seems really inconsistent since winston is an anchor tank.
You do realise that claiming that other statement is wrong and then throwing a BRUTAL overexaggeration like that is way out of place?
If Orisa has grav on cooldown then Reaper just one shots people all the time.
… but we all know none of those 2 things are actually true, do we?
Orisa is underwhelming and “meh” at best when not paired with Sigma. Sigma was, is and will always be the trigger of “Double shield”. And the main issue is that he leaves with slaps in the wrist while the brutal nerfs fall on Orisa/others.
Is false.
Orisa was disgustingly overpowered even before sigma, having a bloated pickrate with a 58% winrate. That has never been seen before. She would of gotten brutal nerfs either way. You can’t put everything on sigma…
Orisa grav on cooldown? What. Orisas pull is a good team play ability. It also got nerfed quite a bit a long time ago aswell so it’s easier to escape. Its legit Orisas only team playmaker ability and it’s not even close to grav level. Besides that almost every tank has a playmaker ability.
Bap literally had a better kit when he was released and guess what no one played him. He received buffs after buffs and didn’t even hold ground with any other support.
It feels like u sure do love to overexaggrate
That’s exactly what winston does so I’m not sure what that article is implying.
Winston sets up his shields with his allies (in the backline) and controls the pace of the action. This article is acting like winston is some sort of solo flanker though.
