Its wierd to say it as someone who play a lot of rein but

Its feels good to throw sigma rock on charging rein or end his killing spree that end up in potg with rock to his face XD

It make me today realise how much reins gone agressive compared to the past. Not always in a good thing. I know some will say “they are finnaly not boring” or “our rein finnaly move foward” but what i see in games is gameplay of barbarian not a tank. People forget about when its smart to charge and when its time to take your time with a fight.

Not saying everyone, still have good reins in games, but there is more of those… how to say it… young versions of reinhardt now. If someone dont know what im talking about cheak his cinematic.

I guess i just wanted to share my view on the game? Not plaing that offten tho mayby im wrong on this and just happend to meet those people in qp.

reins need to be more aggressive due to the shield nerf

Yea but going in swinging hammer when sigma is shooting at you from far seems over the top. Or charging head on the sigma 3 times and get stoped by the same ability.

I think all the Rein are rusty from being in Orisa jail for so long.

Do many reins actualy switched off completly to orisa when she was meta?

only the reins that cant bait the other orisa to hit fortify early. my dad for example he has over 700 hours on rein and is able to bait the orisa im also able to do it at over 100 hours myself but its still a little tricky

Or from not being forced to tank (role lock).

I’ve been playing rein since i started playing overwatch (two and half years) and i’ve enjoyed playing him

I just find it hard to enjoy playing him when I’m either spinning in circles trying to deal with a small annoying fly that also does insane damage, or being booped around like a pinata, or, now, go from max shield and max health to zero faster than a Hypercar gets to 60mph

I play orisa mostly because i like the engagement, i felt like rein isnt as engaging. The time between engagements is less now which is better in my opinion. And with orisa nat getting the speed buff youre not playing footsie or catch me if you can. Plus i like playing zarya on kings row, aggressive reins get the juices flowing.
