To anyone who wants to know this video basically covers how brig mains have been treated by the ow community TOXIC Teammates FLAME Me For Playing Brig (Overwatch Competitive Toxicity) - YouTube this has to stop… I see this toxicity almost every day and no this isn’t my content
Armor is different than in OW1. It’s basically 130 health. They dumbed it down
I’m pretty sure she’s supposed to be a support character, not a Reinhardt with a stun
Support doesn’t mean healer… And actually in a lot of moba/rpg games the healers are tanks… Look at smite lots of healer tanks, Diablo has the paladin there have always been tanky healers in games
Nor does it mean main tank. Rally was already a very good ultimate, I do think she needed slight buffs, but this should not be the way to go.
It’s like 7 seconds per ult that doesn’t make you a main tank… Mei is more of a main tank than that
Rally lasts 10 seconds, her shield has more health than a winston bubble and continuously gives her teammates overhealth, not to mention she gets instant +100 armor. 10 seconds in Overwatch is a long time and enough to win team fights
You need to improve as a brig player 
1 fight doesn’t make you a main tank… Bait the ult run come back it’s that easy
You can’t just “bait it out” the enemies are not stationary targets and you can move around whilst ulting
She’s been a really solid pick throughout the past season, but her ult was the only thing notably weak about her and it DID need to be buffed.
I don’t know that it needed ALL of these changes/buffs, but I’ve always been an advocate of trying something on live before judging it.
Considering it’s one of the longest to farm ults in the game and Brig’s range is more limited with the pack nerfs: her ult can always be shifted down a bit from here if it really does prove to be too much.
Looking forward to it though. Looks fun.
Number one don’t attack my brig play… I know how to avoid a ram number 2 yes you can bait any ult just act like ur ganna dive and ult and she will probably use it have rein do some fancy shield dance and act like he’s ganna shatter… It works
You’re expecting the target who you baited to stand still and not engage after ulting?
Rally is not just a defensive ultimate
No I’m expecting people to be able to bait a brig ult back up wait for it to end then dive bomb
“Brig is really countered by most of the entire roster” I think you need to improve seriously because everything you said can be avoided by positioning.

When you’re backing up, they can engage with their team using Lucio amp (usually ran alongside with jq and brig) and trample all over you.
And if the scenario is that you’re running rush comp, it’s always better to ult first and run over the enemy team. It would be like having 2 reins, one having overtime healing + armor and a stun
If your that worried about a brig then just run kiriko so when she goes to stun just suzu the thing how about that… Run characters that can’t be stunned like orisa and phara(harder to stun)
I still think Bridgitte is a feast or famine type of hero.
Every other healer is viable 90% of the time, Brig is only viable 50%.
In some game comps she absolutely dominates while in others she plays hide and seek.
What I’m saying it there are counter plays to the brig buff but very few people actually acknowledge it and in a game where counterplay is important how is this not fair if you can cleanse all cc?
While switching characters is good, it’s not always the way to go. You can’t switch to a character and run it down, hoping it would work.
Brig was supposed to be a character that peels for the flex support, now she’s also a main-tank in rally.
This game isn’t just switch to x character to completely counter them and them not being able to do anything against you, this is the exact reason why overwatch 1 was beginning to fall off ever since they added direct counters. (e.g. Brig killing the game back in 2018, because it was a straight answer to flanking heroes, resulting in dps heroes becoming completely irrelevant with goats and so on)
You’re not wrong about counterplay being important, but there should never be a situation where you just can’t do anything beside switch characters - this is not healthy for the game
