Some heroes seem pretty busted in 6v6. The ones I’ve noticed are ball, zen and torb. There are probably others, but these could do with some toning down. There are probably some that need buffs as well.
Why put out a mode for testing and not do fixes to make it as fun as possible and attract more players? Or is that the plan?
They need to have their own hp back before s9.
Zen is WAY too jumpable. With two tanks? He’s fine where he’s at. He is strong when there’s no diver or someone who flanks easy like Reaper. But the amount of times I see Zen players switch the moment they get 1 diver/flanker on the enemy team is almost 100%. As a Reaper main, I pray they have a Zen main. That’s just me though. I could see why poke or some brawler mains hate him.
All 6v6 needs is no s9 HP and hitbox/projectile size changes. It’s the only thing holding it back.
And removing the role passives
There are some heroes that definitely have to be looked at in 6v6.
Ball is just a little bit too survivable.
Doom is just an absolute mess. He gets banned almost every game in Masters.
Hog needs a massive nerf to Breather.
Hazard needs a nerf to Spiked Guard.
Zen shouldn’t be able to infinitely cast Discord.
Cass, Weaver, Reaper, Mei, and Torb have too much HP for the format.
Just fixing these would improve 6v6 tremendously.
But is he banned because he deserves it, or is he banned because he is annoying? That’s the question that remains…
Maybe a bit of both. He is quite strong in 6v6 since he can very easily get Emp Punch, and teams will play more clustered.
I personally think he’s flawed design, and I’d wager that many Doom players would agree.
Why are they so insistant on keeping the role passives. Is anybody even in favour of them. Ive never actually heard someone defend this aspect
Reaper is a brawler though
Maybe we’ll get some more 6v6 changes next season. They did give Ball and Zen 6v6-specific nerfs at season’s start so it’s precedented.
Right now, I just want to know that it’s returning for a fact. I haven’t played any RQ this season and I’m not really keen on the idea of being forced back to it next season.
Hamster is an absolute pain in 6v6 because the other tank assists him while the supports can’t be dove behind the second tank. Getting close to them results in Hamster coming to the rescue. Not even Sombra can do much. Even worse when it’s Ram or Hog.
Akj is in favor of dps passive being buffed of course
