My changes for Overwatch

General Discussion

Some of the recent patches were interesting to say the least, and I want to share my take on some of the changes I want to see from the developers.

Pharah

  • Undo the flight nerf, give her back the ability to fly infinitely.
    She was hurt badly by this, and she feels awful to play without a Mercy pocket. With the current patch, a mercy is REQUIRED to be effective, due to the necessity of rocket jumping.
  • Revert ultimate duration back to 3 seconds, but let the ultimate be cancelled.
    Most of the time, you die in the first 1.5 seconds of the Barrage, and the extra duration at the end is helpful to finish off tanks. Developers made this seem like a QoL change, it was an annoying nerf.

Sombra

  • Hacked enemies are visible to all allies in red through walls.
    Similar to the way she can see enemies under half health. I think this would make it easier to play Sombra without a pre-made squad.
  • Stealth cooldown decreased to 5 seconds. Mostly QoL, but useful just in general.
  • I think an Ultimate cost increase would be OK, she already charges it up quick.

Roadhog

  • Revert his fire-rate nerfs and ammo size.
    His nerf was one of the more interesting patches we’ve had recently. He started in a bad place, got buffed to a good place, then nerfed down to worse than where he started. I’m aiming to make him slightly better than he was before.
  • Chain hook now pulls targets 3 meters away from Roadhog from 3.5
    Bringing the patch from the experimental to live. Should put him in a decent place, still doesn’t fix his fundamental flaws.

Ashe

  • No longer to get ult charge while BOB is on the field
    Making her standard with the majority of the heroes in the game.

Widowmaker

  • Health reduced to 150.
    Make her more of a glass cannon
  • Venom mine now has 2 charges instead of 1.

Brigette

  • Applying packs during Rally gives 25 armor.
    Small buff, not much here
  • Armor applied during Rally now lasts indefinitely after the duration, until damaged.
    Another small buff

McCree

  • Revert firerate to 0.42 seconds from 0.5 seconds.
  • Lower damage from I think 75 to 69
  • Push the flashbang buffs through from Experimental
    Just felt weird after the nerfs, this should make him feel better and e better
  • Combat roll changes from Experimental can come through, I don’t see why not
    flying McREEEE go bRRRRRRR

formatting isnt great, but it shows my thoughts. i have some more, maybe ill edit them in later

Umm I don’t think this is a good idea, the only was she gains ugly charge while bob is going is through her own work and also with bob long duration Ashe players wouldn’t be able to gain ult charge while in the middle of a fight, it’s like hammond you gain ult charge not from your ult but from yourself because of the long duration

Winston also has a long ult duration and he isn’t able to gain Ult charge. Same with 70% of heroes in the game. It is a nerf, the intent is to make Ashe worse as she is still powerful.

But winstons is not a npu(non playable ultimate) his is himself doing the work, where Hammond and Ashe are npu’s also bob is easily shut down with a barrier hack sleep or defense matrix
