Wow that sounds nasty, was this when you could gain ult charge from taking damage?
Every balance state is picking X heroes or lose. The difference is some heroes affect the other roles differently. Super cc heroes make tanking miserable. Double sniper makes support miserable. The dps heroes now make the game more fun for everyone.

In every other Meta it’s just 2. I see this as a big improvement.

It really doesn’t matter about our feelings or opinions. The data of the heroes shouldn’t be this gapped in any case.

It is better than hard lock Ashe genji meta sure.
But times during the Orisa hog meta for example, the dps cast was very balanced. Almost all the dps were on par yeah there were top dogs but the gap wasn’t this big at all.
No. I think that mechanic never got past beta testing. It’s just the spam was just down right crazy.
Junk used to have no fall off on his mines, so it didn’t matter if it detonated dead center or the explosion just barely touched you, you would still receive full damage.
No flanker could survive around Junk back then.

Perfect balance is impossible. The best they can do is make the game the most fun for the most amount of people while ensuring no heroes are throw picks. The only throw pick rn is probably bastion. Every other hero has their niche on certain maps/comps.

Has their niche you wish. No heroes under Mccree tracer Ashe hanzo widow Echo are playable, you pick these heroes and you are already sand bagging ur team.
Perfect balance isn’t possible but this is not even close atleast on the dps side.
Nah man the healthiest dps is symmetra. She should be perma the best

What happened if both team have Sym’s? One will teleport her team to Paris, the other will teleport hers to Lunar Colony?
It would be a nightmare for the other 10 players.

Pharah is still good on first point maps like Eichenwalde. Junkrat great on Anubis and some other 2CP maps. Mei is good on single choke maps like Hanamura. Sym is great on some koth maps. Just because these heroes aren’t effective in all spots doesn’t make them useless. Do they need some QoL changes or buffs…sure. But these heroes aren’t throw picks at all. Only Bastion is

What good would flashbang be if it couldn’t be followed up on?
Tracer, Doom, Genji, Ball, Reaper & others would run rampant

I mean yeah, I would much rather have mcree being a better DPS.
That being said, that doesn’t give him a free pass for being overtuned, which imo, he is. They could revert maybe one of the (4?) buffs he got and it would be fine.

Let them remove flash bang, and see how much people enjoy playing against flankers and Hammond.
