If you're not out of McCree's ult in 1.5 seconds

Backsword-1615 · February 28, 2019, 3:53am

You’re dead.

This is hitting PTR tomorrow

ZeroGravitas-11519 · February 28, 2019, 3:54am

Wait it’s not in PTR yet?

Backsword-1615 · February 28, 2019, 3:54am

This was just announced a little bit ago, hitting PTR tomorrow

ZeroGravitas-11519 · February 28, 2019, 3:56am

Ah I see, didn’t realize this was different from the changes in the current PTR patch notes.

NighthAwk-13514 · February 28, 2019, 3:57am

This is an extension to the PTR change that just went live with Baptiste. The change they made started at 2.5s. As of tomorrow/Friday’s PTR patch, it will now start even earlier.

God forbid anything about McCree requires half a brain cell to pull off.

Backsword-1615 · February 28, 2019, 4:14am

Brig isn’t much different

Project-21132 · February 28, 2019, 4:14am

What, you mean that fan the spammer DOESN’T take skill?

Every Mccree players just internally convulsed in pain.

Snowflake-21609 · February 28, 2019, 4:15am

finally it will be “high risk high reward ultimate”, instead of “free reload”

Trando-11488 · February 28, 2019, 5:36am

It’s messed up. They’re overkitting McCree like they did Genji. You’re sure to see the two tied neck and neck for top DPS pickrate after this

It’s already an instant (usually solo ult) kill for Pharah and Mercy, it’s even more so now.

Blizz: lets give Pharah 3.75 extra damage on her very outer edge of her effective splash range, oh but that’s too good for her, make McCree shatter shields, kill squishies faster than they have time to react, but take away 5dmg per shot on his FTH so he can’t kill tanks as fast. There, perfect harmony

Reith-1609 · February 28, 2019, 5:37am

I’m pretty sure this means… 550 damage at 1.5 seconds? That can’t be right… can it? Am I wrong?

I’m actually more interested to see how it scales with longer duration.

MightyMogar-11880 · February 28, 2019, 5:38am

Considering his ult has mainly been used as an extra reload, I’m definitely willing to see how this plays out.

Because fast reaction time with a shield tank should still, in theory, be able to protect a whole team.

Plus D.va eats McCree’s ult for breakfast still

a7wingedfox-6536 · February 28, 2019, 5:41am

it’s… HIIIIIIGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH…
HIIIIIIGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH…
HIIIIIIGHHHHHHHHHHGGGHHHGGGHHHHHHHHHHH…

(genji deflect)…
lul…

not sure if it’s the right direction, but glad his ult got buffed.

Blaz4me-1324 · February 28, 2019, 5:45am

Jesus he is going to be able to break a Sym ult.

Gaze-11763 · February 28, 2019, 5:51am

I, for one, and excited McCree’s ult is getting upgraded from being a free reload.

Backsword-1615 · February 28, 2019, 5:52am

This is correct
