Is the Ana "buff" a nerf?

Preheal was an extremely minor thing which people here love to blow out of proportion.

The shoot through allies buff isn’t even much of a buff and comes off as a nerf to all us Ana players who have been playing her for a long time. Pre-healing was a thing that we Ana players used to make sure that the moment our team member takes damage it will heal them. We also used pre-healing to make sure that our shots were lined up and ready.

Ana has only 1 best case scenario to effectively use her piercing darts. (shown on the top left) Ana has more worse case scenarios to be using her piercing darts effectively (shown bottom and top right)

After this consideration the new changes are not suited at all, and should be reverted. Only once or twice I had my team in a conga line, or need to pierce my ally to heal another.

They were not a minor thing at all. I used them a lot aswell. It’s very unpractical without pre-heal.
