Without even taking his balance state into account (even though I genuinely dont think his nerfs are going to do anything to him whatsoever), aren’t you guys just freaking done playing into him?
Its just every God damn game, every God damn day. No matter the game mode he’s there.
He’s miserable to play into on tank. He wins the match up more often than not against other dps, and he’s so strong in almost every area that he overshadows other dps in their niche so there’s little point picking them. As a support you’re always quaking in your boots waiting for the scummy hick to come rolling out of narnia to flash fan you.
God I hope someone else becomes meta soon because this game is just getting BORING with him being so good.
I have no issue playing into him because I understand how he works & what ranges to play at against him, as well as when to take advantage of him. Without flashbang, he’s nothing, and he shouldn’t just be able to walk up to you & do it. If he can, you/your team misplayed.
This is actually one of the more enjoyable & balanced metas we’ve had imo.
Yeah totally enjoyable for you people that just love to abuse a broken character hahaha.
His pickrate is genuinely one of the unhealthiest things I’ve ever seen in this game. But please, continue defending your dumpster fire of a character. Just understand that most other people don’t enjoy playing into him.
He’s infinitely more annoying to vs than a m1 freezebot mei or a sombra.
Also, so ashe is nothing? Widow is nothing? Because they don’t have a braindead CC combo to fall back on hahahahahahaha.
McCree is not even a top 5 hero for me in the past 8 months since he’s been considered good lol. Yknow, not everything is “if you’re not with me, you’re against me”
Every game, every map, every mode, everywhere is no-fly zone purely bc cowboy
I can’t dive him, I get mcflashed and mcfanned
I can’t fight at medium range, he triple bodyshots me before my 1st rocket reaches him
I can’t fight him long range, rockets are random hail mary’s at that range and his ult is a free, no skill required instakill on me every time
I don’t have any particular problem with playing against him, other than a few specific heroes, and I play everything, so I’m not opposed to switching off of those.
He’s a little annoying as Roadhog, but it’s nothing like facing Mei or Doomfist, where all tanks except Zarya, almost all supports, and many other damage characters just feel completely helpless to play. McCree’s just kind of average and happens to have one CC.
They aren’t. They’re pointing out that the commom argument of don’t get into his range isn’t actually a rebuttal to him being overpowered. If anything it’s reinforcing that he’s too strong.
If we only talk about gameplay wise (assuming all DPS heroes are balanced), you would still face McCree in almost every game. He is a medium to high skill ceiling hero with a crutch, so he lands right there at the sweet spot for everyone who wants to improve but also doesn’t want to be a burden to their team.
Plus his design is cool, his gun is satisfied and you can’t go wrong with maining him even when he’s weak. His simple learning curve is quite addictive, you always feel like you could achieve more with his primary in the very next game, it’s not impossible like going from trash Widow to useful Widow within one day.
