This hero is objectively very good, but she is far from broken and shouldn’t have to be changed to accommodate the delusion of the “aim is skullful” crowd. The hero doesn’t need to aim sure, but she’s definitely not on auto-pilot like most of the community claims her to be. No hero is.
Has she used Fade yet? Has she used orb yet? Ask yourselves these questions when you’re 1v1ing a Moira. Without her cooldowns, she’s the worst hero all of a sudden. If you can’t out-DPS the 20 HPS from her right click, that’s on you I’m afraid.
Also moaning about Moira on the forums (that the Devs don’t read btw) isn’t going to make your experience against her any better.
Not a Moira player btw.

I don’t know how that would change anything but maybe I’m wrong. I’d like to see how that plays out.
ive never said that she was OP, but the fact that shes so easy and gets so much value is bad for comp
I tried out for a team recently, and they wanted me to show that I could play echo, so I did, and our flex support player got on mercy/ As we were playing I just noticed really frequently
“this guy is positioning in places that will get him killed”
“this guys awareness is so low”
“this guy looks like he doesn’t even know what game hes playing”
and most of the time these things did end up causing him to die and there wasn’t enough that I could do to bail him out of it without also resulting in me dying with him
and this was the case on both ana and mercy
third map of the tryout comes along and we play Havana, continuing to play pharmecho
This guy is complaining about the enemy teams tracer when he isn’t even supposed to be on the ground anywhere in her vicinity.
I check his profile after the tryouts over, I see that his most played hero (by far) is moira with 17 hours this season. I then check his stats from before double shield.

people complain about her because no one took the time to understand how its easy to counter moira, it just lower ranks who can’t wait 6 min to Dps they found out moira can do some damage so they went dps moira … and since there’s nothing to complain about moira is now the hero to complain about !

Moira needs to be made harder. Her whole kit is extremely easy to use and get value out of and making it harder would make her more pleasant to play against as well as open up new opportunities for her in the way of actual utility.

I can agree with this. She doesn’t need to be aim intensive, but if I’m on her right side shoulder to shoulder with her she shouldn’t be registering damage.

I agree, but I’d still like to see how that works out.
How would you make her harder?
I agree.
they should really decrease her damage so that all dps moira can use real dps instead.
Her beam also shouldnt latch on for a second after LOS is broken.
I’ve had countless times where that beam hits me, I take cover, and it kills me because of that 1 extra second passing through a wall.
Reducing her beam width comes to mind as well as a range reduction

Remove auto aim on orb and instead have her manually detonate orbs for AoE damage or heals. The damage orb explosion also replenishes healing resource.
Also make her healing resource run out faster but damage replenishes it faster. This way she has to go and take risks taking damage to sustain the team. But when she goes to do damage she has to aim to do it so she doesn’t get free life steal.
And maybe add a damage resource just like healing and have it drain slowly and recharge slowly. Not sure on that last one.

have you ever healed with moira ? if you’re a moira healer that thing goes fast
Are you saying that characters that suddenly become forced meta aren’t easier to climb with and getting boosted by meta is just a Moira issue? This applies to all characters, I bet loads of tank mains climbed with little effort when Sigma was still OP and doubleshield was all the rage and Zenyatta/Bap mains came out of the closet when Bap got his buff too.
Chances are they got boosted, even if a gold support player made a swap to a different hero, it’s hardly enough to make up for 1.5k-2k SR difference in skill. Otherwise gold and plat moira’s would stop from existing when she’s the second most common support down there right after Ana, if the implication that Moira = massive free SR boost without skill would be true.
Tap your spray, don’t hold it down. It will make your resource for it last a lot longer and heal just as much.
yes orisa absolutely boosted players, sigma less so since hes still a difficult hero to just pick up and run with, but moira out of all the other 5, way way easier, and she was absolutely easy enough for someone to make a 1500~ SR climb
