I can't wait for Brig in Stadium

I could imagine builds centered around weapon speed/lifesteal and buffed Inspire turning her into a force to be reckoned with when she pushes, or maybe crazy AP builds dedicated to brutal offensive combos, or buffing Rally to give armor again and overheal on juiced up repair packs

Items would probably be about whip range/boop distance, maybe a super brief hinder on bash so it can cancel some things, inspire range or stacking

She’s gonna be awesome to add but also it’s probably a good thing Winton is joining at the same time as he eats through armor… might end up being important, lol.

Man… Lucio is going to be dead on arrival with the new heroes unless they buff his healing substantially.

I’m really excited for brig too! :partying_face: She’s one of my favorite supports!

All my excitement for Brig got thrown out the window as soon as they announced Pharah was being added at the same time.

I think Pharah isn’t going to be super strong, but she’s going to be super annoying for quite a few of the cast. Juno, Soldier, Ashe, and Cass are going to make short work of Pharah any time she even dares to peek.

HOWEVER! She’s going to be an absolute nightmare for heroes like Reaper, Mei, Lucio, Rein, and Brig. Juno, Mercy, and Freja are already bad enough to play into. Add Pharah to that and it’s just gonna feel bad.

I actually see it as a good thing since pharah will likely force ashe players off those max ap builds Lol.

That’s the only fun build though. :frowning:

I wager she’ll still dynamite the enemy and build bob in 20s who will shred pharah or keep her out of the sky for a while.

They absolutely deleted him from existence with the ban-nuke they dropped on him when he had a high win rate (but a low pick rate), but then left Soldier, Juno, Mercy, Cass, and Zarya in op spots and gave them wrist-slap nerfs then though “Meh, that’s fine.” even though they are in nearly every game.

All im asking for is to put wall boops up to 30.

Why they thought lowering from 40 to 25 was a fair nerf :rage:

35 would’ve been fine. They need to undo part of the nerf to his boop aoe heal power. It’s almost useless now outside of Amp. With the DPS passive buffed to 30%, he’s going to need base healing buffs too. 11hps is nothing.

It is very fun I agree! But I think the point of stadium is to get players to use different builds depending on what each team is running and as new heroes get added I think you’ll see this more.

Unfortunately that’s not the case for most heroes. :frowning:

I don’t think so, tbh. Why do anything besides torpedos as Juno? Why do anything but tanky healbot Mercy? Why do anything but auto-aim Soldier? Why do anything but weapon power Cass?

They need to fundamentally alter some of the over-performing heroes, but for real this time.

Then there’s Lucio. His beat-build is pretty much useless because you don’t get cash from mitigation, so you end up starved for money. His weapon damage heals build is stupid because it scales off of weapon power but the ENTIRE REST OF LUCIO’S KIT is ability power based. He only has one functional build and it’s the AP heal-focused build with the boop damage.
