There is a lot of people complaining about Brigitte and how they canāt 1v1 her. What Blizzard is trying to say is āYou donāt have to 1v1, because this is a TEAM gameā.

People say this. Iām just hoping Brigitte isnāt the new Symmetra in two months. Loads of people were saying all these things about reworked Sym, then two months later with no changes at all, people learned to work around her and she became situational trash. I see a lot of Symmetraās problems in Brigitte.
Brigitte has short range, and little supporting capability. She still has to fill a support slot and compete with every other support for team space. I play all supports and I already donāt think Iād use her in 75% of situations, just because sheās an off healer and in many situations a main healer is better. Thatās not counting the situations where another off healer with longer range or less sporadic healing is better.

i would be fine with this if she wasnāt a support. i shouldnāt have to bring half my team to kill a support with an effective 850 health.

I think itās about time people stopped playing this game like cod.
Itās not about the kills, itās not about the yourself, itās about the teamš
Just remember that, and your good.

Thats all well and good, but there is a FFA game mode and Brigitte is completely ruining itā¦

And before that it was Moira, and before that it was Roadhog, and before that it was someone elseā¦
āItās a team gameā very much appliesā¦ FFA is just a āfor funā mode, not a balancing benchmark.

A single Brigitte is just as fragile in FFA as she is in a regular game. The reason sheās so frustrating in FFA is because people either swoop in to help her, or thereās four Brigittes and you get chain-stunned before finally dying to somebodyās mace.

Yeah, and a Support shouldnāt be able to melt 90% of the roster in two seconds like Moira can. If youāre fine with Moira, but not Brig, thereās a fundamental problem.

actually i am fine with moira. i donāt have to bring my team i can easily kill her by my self i play tracer and can out damage her self heals. The thing is you canāt out damage brigittes self heals because of her shield. You need your team there to help or at least one support. i need to be constantly healed in order to kill a support? are you kidding me? self heals are fine on lucio and mercy and to some extent moira because they donāt do a lot of damage brigitte has too much damage to justify self heal.

Ah. See, Brig is your counter as Tracer. Sheās meant to stop the flank / dive. Thatās why she was added. Jeff said as much in the hero reveal trailer.
DF can squish her just like every other support, Pharah, the rat, etc.

Iām not saying she or any other hero should be balanced based off of effectiveness in FFA, Iām just saying that she makes FFA which is meant to be a āfun modeā very un-fun. At least for me.

yes the irrelevent df(as of now) and pharah and junk characters you barely see.but maybe that was blizzards goal in order to make them more relevant.
Personally, I think she competes more for tank space then she does for healing space.
She regenerates hp and shield much the same way as RoadHog and she has a more limited range to compensate, but also has the added bonus of more reliable CC and more of it in her kit.
I dunno man, that upcoming DF buff is gonna be siiiick. Heāll be back in more comp games, for sure!
As far as Junkrat, Iām not even gonna claim to be a super high elo (Silver) and he is everywhere. He does so much damage, with such little skill requirement, that I find myself using him at timesābecause heās THAT good. I donāt even have to really try and get POTG with a triple kill from just shooting grenades in random directions and tossing mines. I dunno how it is at higher levels, but at lower he is a nightmare lol.
If Junkrat had an unreliable grenade bounce like the Demo-man and if his gun fired more like the demomans I would easily be able to duel people in mid range with it, as well as provide minor zone control.
However with how reliable the nades bounce because theyāre spherical I think heās a bit too easy for just zoning spots. But because the bombs are so small its hard to duel in the mid distances.
Iām gonna play him more tho now that Iāve gotten over him not being a 1:1 copy of demoman.
Thereās also 6 other characters on the enemy team. I donāt know why everyone is so dead set on killing and countering her first.
A team work game where the dps and tanks dont need protect the healersā¦
Where is the role funciĆ³n?
Lets go play codverwatch!

put a full roster of heroes you canāt 1vs1 then and change the face of the game. else its obviously broken
Have you tried to kill her with Reaper? Iām fine dying with Tracer against Brigitte because she read my play to kill me.
However Itās IMPOSSIBLE to 1v1 with Reaper. Brigitte should actually miss all of her skills, drop her shield and not having any other support near her. Itās rediculous.
Thereās a distinction between hard to kill (see Moira) and impossible. The same goes for widow and hanzo as well. Also her model in comparison with Moira, does not provide a clear headshot sight from any angle. Itās just like Rein, torb, Ana i.e. thereās no neck to adjust your sight, you just headshot them because of practice.

FFA is a bit of fun.
If she bothers you that much take Rein and just smash her
