How is hanzo a "no skill hero"

General Discussion

:smiley: There is no such thing as “buffer”. Characters have hitboxes, and that’s it. OW is known to have, let’s just say “very generous” hitboxes, and yes that applies to gengji’s stuff too. Both those hitboxes and and the spread is created to make ceratain ppl feel ‘better’ you’d be hard put not ot hit something if you are close enough, so they garvitate to OW and abandon more unforgiving games. Mo’ palyers mo’ money.

Hanzo is NOT a no skill character. Storm arrow IS a no skill ability. Projectile speed increase and lunge were great buffs he needed. Storm arrow is poor design. Hope that clears things up.

Because his arrows are the size of PHARAH-ROCKETS and can headshot even hiting your chest, shoulder or missing close of your head LOL

No, they aren’t. Stop trying to push the log sized arrow idea, its been proven false by the devs. The hitboxes of the heroes extend slightly outside of the model, not that the arrows are massive…

Sure kid. Thay are very reliably open about these things. Hitboxes, matchmaking, SR foprula’s all out there for everyone to check out :slight_smile: Just look at forums it reflects the openess about these things.

i mean do you have any evidence to back up what you are saying also you aren’t going to win any friends by calling people kid, people are not going to be inclined to listen to you when you are condescending.

How? you need to aim to reach its full potential

what would be a good alternative?

27

Something that didn’t have 960 damage potential every 8 seconds. If he had 3-4 arrows, it would be fine. 6 in 2 seconds? I can’t aim very well with Hanzo, but I always hit at least 2.

Ok I beleive you. I’ll check back to see you posting the OW version of this exact thing:

Thank you in advance. :slight_smile:

Every hero requires skill of some capacity. What it all boils down to is which requires the least amount of skill. :face_with_monocle:

In all honesty speaking as a non hanzo dirty rat main the issue with Hanzo is his rate of fire and infinite ammo.:thinking:

With his new sonic arrows or whatever there called hes able to dish out critical hits at such a fast rate. He in my opinion makes heroes like Widow obsolete due to his agility. She may have a hook but she can’t climb walls or ledges lol🤣

And with infinite ammo theres really no need to play it safe or gauge whens a good time to unload shots.:face_with_raised_eyebrow:

Take Rat for example, in this circumstance he actually takes more skill than Hanzo as of right now because his rate of fire is slow, has to reload, cant really aim shots cause his grenades dont go in straight lines, and doesnt really have that much agility besides his double mines.:rat:

I disagree hes a no skill character that honor goes to Bridgette.:unamused:

er ok i wasn’t asking you this did you reply to the wrong person?

edit: thanks for the quote from the devs, so! hanzos arrows aren’t logs and people an stop saying that now kthnx lmao

32

oh sorry, I thought you did… sorry.

33

its ok! i was actually replying to lithian, unless i messed up and replied to you? idk

34

Guys, just play the game and see the length outward from a hero using crosshair lengths to determine where you start to miss. It will always be bigger than the crosshair length to the edge of a character’s model–that’s proof enough that the hitboxes are exaggerated to the models of the heroes, meanwhile the devs somewhere said that hanzo’s arrows are on par with genii’s shurikens in terms of size.

If this isn’t enough proof I don’t know what is.

3 sentences from a PNG icon. roflmao. Now read back.

36

i actually cant find the png can you format it in a way that makes it easier to type in

like just put a space between the http or whatever

also you are still being condescending! good job! that will definitely convince everyone you are right and not the devs who contradict you

37

Still trying to push that argument despite the fact that Geoff Goodman himself–One of the devs–has stated otherwise?

Nope. Factually incorrect.

Out of all the projectiles in the game his arrows are tied for smallest.

lmao, besides anything, even the source, just compare the ‘quality’ of that information to the link. Btw you don’t even know if that really was dev my friend, or they just asked a random community manager ot quickly spam something. That is the problem, that level of being gullible. I mean your problem, not mine…

Memes. Aren’t. Facts.
