Is anyone else really tired of genji?

I’m currently going back and forth between gold and plat, and I am so tired of Genjis every single game! I swear the enemy team always has a genji, and now after his buff he’s become really powerful… my team always needs a mccree against their genji, and the tanks and supports need to switch to counter him. Almost every team comp looks the same every match, and don’t even get me started on the constant nanoblades… nerf plz

I dont see a problem with him. Infact I feel like they forgot a few heroes that also need buffs. I’m talking about Tracer’s pulse bomb and 76’s damage output.

Or maybe nerf shields all together so we wouldnt need more damage output? Remember this all started with Brigette being an overpowered ALL role hero.

His damage output is OK. He lacks accuracy for his intended range. Don’t make him directly challenge WM, but shooting something dead is almost impossible with severity of spread at the moment.

I just go McCree or Doomfist as DPS, and Brig as Support (if i have to ill go Moira) and he’s not much of an issue there. Genji is still meh without the help of Ana for his ultimate and his effective strength diminishes if you correctly peel for your supports as DPS (such as playing a passive playstyle of DF that punishes flankers by RPing them to the face).

Pretty sick of that whirlwind of neon green jumping over my head and dashing to EACH team member after DB kills.

Yes.

I really don’t think he needed straight buffs.

The kids love genji, deal with it.

They should just for once nerf every top pick amd buff all the weak ones.

We ain’t getting no meta shift of certain heroes stay mandatory forever.

Open up for change!

I don’t play at the end of a season but if there is a genji in every game it’s just free sr for me (brig otps for the win)

I’m sick and tired of random Genji players just walking into backlines and just doing their braindead combo so easily without getting punished…

It’s nice seeing Genji powerful again. I think he’s a bit too strong right now but I don’t think he’s extremely far off.

He and Ashe need light nerfs, alongside Brigitte.

Only ever been tired of Deflect.

2 seconds is a long time to wait till I can shoot back.

ninja’s will always be a kid thing … remember teenage mutant ninja turtles?

Two things got me over being sick of Genji:

  1. He is, always has been, and always will be here to stay. He’s a fixture in the game with a massive pick rate, and if they switch off, it’s to Doomfist, so there’s no avoiding him if you want to play. No point in caring if that’s the case.

  2. If you think of him as a skill check npc, you stop seeing his aggravating animations, and just see a target you need to hit before the next stage of the game. If you don’t pass, you need to retry the level, and the skill check comes up every minute or so.

I used to hate him, now I’m totally neutral.
