-Hero is either in F tier and/or has low pickrate
-Complains until the hero gets buffed
-Hero is way too op, people start crying for nerfs
-Hero gets nerfed into the ground
-People cry that they need a buff/revert
It’s all just a big loop honestly, please stop before you ruin the game.
Buffing heroes rarely works, stop calling for buffs just because the hero is low pickrate or F tier. Each hero has their own job to do and sometimes it can’t be done because of the current meta.
It baffles me too.
I saw tonnes of Mei buff threads, which I piqued my interest since I’m a GM Mei main. There were tonnes of Mei buff threads even from non-Mei mains, some with stupid suggestions, some with very well thought-out suggestions.
When Mei received the 0.5 second increase to her slow time, people were yelling “That’s going to be OP, nerf!” But is Mei meta now? Nope. Same goes for the current incoming buff which lets her primary fire freeze multiple enemies. It’s only going to be effective if the enemy is standing in a perfect straight line in front of your, or they’re caught within a Graviton Surge. But people have still complained that this new ability is going to be OP.
Ye, the Reaper and Mei from ptr are scaring some people. Both heroes have low pickrate and a lot of people was asking for buffs, and now they want they nerfed. Idk why some players are acting like if Reaper could spam WF or Mei could freeze everyone forever.
I honestly don’t know why people wanted a reaper buff, I see him so much lately and he always just walks into a team and kills like 3 people for some reason
It’s because Reaper is a good pick at low levels and/or uncordinated teams. After gold, he is useless. Everyone can kill Reaper because he was too predictable and have better picks than him. I guess this ia the problem with all the F Tier heroes…
…orrr maybe the problem is the lack of finesse in the nerfs/buffs?
Maybe, JUST MAYBE, the issue is not the fact customers are complaining, but that the buffs and nerfs are not proportional to what is required for a balanced hero?
Why can’t the hero go from F tier to C tier? Why must it go F tier to S tier to F tier again? The issue here is the balancing team, not the customer.
