Not only that but a threshold is counter-intuitive to teamwork.
Imagine having to tell your teammates in a team based game “Nobody help me”
Or even worse, be fighting your target in a 1v1, Hanzo hits a bodyshot, not even a headshot, and in that one instance you just completely sealed death.
Mei is losing freeze on the main kit but is still keeping her slowing aspect of her gun. That said they also are significantly buffing it’s damage and potentially could be doing other things like buffing the firerate of her secondary.
They also said Boop/Sleep are fine so it’s not gonna be “tanks have 90% of CC”
Could just be that the stronger the CC is, the harder it is to apply.
NGL, I think Dash and deflect are holding back is kit way more than ult. A get out of jail free and an uncounterable finisher. They arent too strong alone, but I think if you added buffs t other parts of his kit they would cause breakpoints issues. Genji has too many breakpoints so they keep him subpar, lest he be broken.
I never even said it was too good. I’m saying it leads to breakpoint issues. If he was buffed to do even a little bit more damage, than dash suddenly is able to secure many more kills. Its a breakpoint. 50 dps is 1/4 most dps’s health and is depleted with very little effort on dash as a finisher
50DPS is also nearly immediately healed by any support looking in the general direction of their target for 1 second.
Not really how that works, that’d imply the target is 50HP or so before Genji gets to them.
Genji starts with dash, he doesn’t typically end with it.
And the buffs Genji players want aren’t significant damage buffs, its just 29 damage shurikens and bugfixes, that’s not gonna cause many if any problems.
Wow, I think you are seriously missing the point. This is a burst attack, a finisher. You apply instant damage that is unhealable do to it’s speed. Its fine as it is, but if gengji can consistently get heroes to 50, then its a kill.
It’s 50 damage that can get healed right after it applies, not only that but Genji has a little bit of downtime before he can start firing after he dashes, which is a vulnerability in his combo.
It’s really not, it’s been buffed where it’s nearly brain dead, it’s literally going to make tanking worse. Get over yourself Genji mains, he does not need more damage, he needs YOU to be more competent.
Stop nitpicking to assert your points, they’re flawed and very bias.
Any Genji is gonna melee after dash if you’re low, it’s basic Genji play. It’s still 80 damage over all since you aren’t really able to escape either unless you play very certain heroes.
No one is saying Genji is busted or OP or needs nerfs, but you have to understand that Genji does in fact have strengths and things that he can do well.
Genji is not allowed to be good. Flankers are not allowed to be good. The DPS role is not allowed to be good. The cast of Overwatch is not allowed to be good. Soon, through the steady process of elimation, there will be no playable characters left, and only the maps themselves will be playable. Players will take control of the gondola sailors on Rialto and duke it out in naval combat. Overwatch, in Fall 32th, twenty-eleventeen, will become a real-time strategy naval game.
You mean how every healer but Bapt and Ana who was nerfed into insignificance by flank DPS mains who said it was unfair a support can defend themselves?
Ana is literally the poster child for healing creep, she started, she nurtured it, and she still competes with the highest base burst healing if she lands her shot, 100 aoe instant burst damage with 50% more healing for more burst, and has a 250 hp heal with 50% immediate defense for even more burst healing potential.
Ana is fine balance wise, she’s a fun hero to play, but people need to realize that Ana being a fun and interesting hero doesn’t mean she didn’t destroyed the balance of this game single handedly because Blizzard saw her as a fun hero and didn’t realize that just because she is fun doesn’t mean she is the catalyst for OW power creep and the gutting of tanks internal defenses so they could die again.
