His abilities are great, his healing is okay just unpleasant to use, his damage output is very weak and ult is okay. Fixing his hitbox + buffing weapon to be more viable in 1v1 would be nice. But maybe it would broke the character, because his utility is strong. I would love to see spread buff.
this needs looking at to make it feel smoother my fingers are hurting all the click hold release / swap to damage , swap to heal , tiring

Charge mechanic could be scrapped completely and no one would complain imo. you heal way too often to rely on holding left-click 24/7. Gets tiring really fast
Honestly, his healing is really growing on me. There’s a lot to consider when making a healing play, and I’m finding it a lot more fun and engaging than I expected. Need to weigh the consequences of every heal, and the slow helps me fine-tune my position on his platform. Definitely a personal “fun” improvement over Mercy/Kiriko/Moira/Zen/Lúcio, and ~on-par with Brig/Bap for me.
The only thing I wish was different was the audio feedback when switching off his damage, to indicate I’m successfully charging heal. Also, providing 10 healing or-so from lifegrip to counteract spam & dot. I could see the slow being removed, but it doesn’t bother me personally.

I was on the fence with Life Weaver until this happened to me in game. I was Ashe, the enemy was grouped up, and I was going to hop in the backline, throw a bomb, get bob, and clean up.
Only, I missed the bomb because I’m garbage at everything that Isn’t Reinhardt 
So, I sat there, no cooldowns and 4 enemies turned to rush me, when suddenly Lifeweaver pulled me out of my bad and stupid spot and into safety! With that in mind, I think there’s no bad pulls if your teammate is rushing the backline and about to take an L. One time, I swear the pull just held me in place, but my position was so awful I was going to die anyway. My biggest issue is how he can ruin ults with his pulls. If I’m using an ability or something, Lifepull should be blocked from working.
