Juno is a throw pick

General Discussion

“We’d still like her to launch in a strong state”.

Really? Because Juno is a throw pick right now. Sombra is buffed and in every game, and Juno now only has 225 and no self heal.

It’s just leave spawn, get hit by Virus, shot at, die, repeat.

The nerf to Juno’s weapon is just adding insult to injury. You spend half the game in the spawn room, and even when you are with your team you hardly heal anything.

These nerfs are completely unacceptable. Juno needs to be buffed back up to 250 HP as a bare minimum. That stops her being a troll pick. Then for her to be “strong” like Blizzard says she should be, the nerf to her weapon needs to be reverted, or Juno should be given a self heal.

I have to agree fully and thats very sad. Her impact is on Weaver level or even lower (and the damage of her is lower than weavers lol). The speed is nice, but the rest is just not making up for weak damage, mid healing, mid mobility, mid ult and no duel potential. She is a dream target for any flanker, because she cant do anything.

I have played a few rounds on tank (mainly JQ) and its my favorite thing to kill Juno and watch her jump in panic and slowly float to the side xD

Also, I think people already know this, because after a few games, I dont see any Junos anymore or they switch quite often.

but… but … i thought juno was super mobile so surely she can just fly away right?

Her movement isnt clunky or anything as ive been told by juno defenders

A nearly 20% reduction in healing and damage on top of health nerfs. What were they thinking?

That’s a skill issue my guy.

virus only gained 10 damage. And sombra is a lot easier to kill in return.

Sombra got a buff that she did not needed and Juno is on 225 health now, with no self heal or any instant movement. Sombra kills Juno much easier than Zen, because she cant even start a duel, let alone finish one.

Sombra has countered the last 2 heroes! Can we make it 3?

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO NOT MY JUNO WHY HEEEEERRRRRR D,: they…they dam they really did that to her

10

so a double jump, speed ring isn’t enough for you?

like in combat scenario like this your suppose to use those tools while engaging. And you can also just not hold onto the float and drop.

Secondly… sombra got a power shift, as she has less health as well.

You forget that the hack disables everything and the fight is done at this point. The 2jump is a joke as a defense tool and the speedring is not instant movement. She gets faster, but nothing that would bring her out of Sombras range.

“Power shift” is also a nice way to put it that all mobility heroes got hit with a nerf and only those compensated who were not good. Sombra is also not good, but Juno is the easiest target ever.

She was always going to be squishy and mid-range. That is how they intended her.

13

Too early to tell for me, am enjoying her a lot and am glad she is here but I do think she should have her double jump reset when she activates glide boost.

There are no such things as “throw picks”

Players throw

Picks/characters do not throw

15

It’s not only Juno

Kiri for example as well… Get hacked… No TP it just insta dead…

This is a huge Sombra problem… And if they want to keep a good amount of players they have to deal w Sombra…

She ruins the game for 90% of the playerbase and yet they buff her…

Blizzard has literally no idea how to manage a game…

It’s just hyperbole.

Hack is only up for a second. At least regarding the ability lock out. Also it doesn’t remove the speed boost once applied.

And you can also shoot at the sombra to keep that from happening.

If she hacks you while invis their is still time she needs to spend leaving the invis before she can shoot or use virus.

Which the latter is a still a very slow to kill tool.

Make it 20. Impact damage is doubled when the target is hacked (which it pretty much always is).
70 impact + 90 DoT + Juno has no self-heal makes her a prime target for Sombra. Even Ana is harder to kill for her.
