Meanwhile snipers and Ana are still going strong.

Nerfing Hog means more tanks will actually be playable, such as gasp WINSTON who can dive snipers and pressure them!
And it means we can play gasp shield tanks who can shield against snipers!
Also Ana was going so strong BECAUSE Hog was a must pick and she counters him…
We can still give Orisa and D.va some shield/DM buffs maybe.

Didn’t you get the memo? Snipers are staying broken because Geoff Goodman plays them a lot:

[When asked how who he plays and how often:] Every day! I’m mostly playing whatever hero I feel like needs to be looked at more, or has recent changed we’re testing etc. Though if i’m just picking to try to win, I find myself mostly going for Ashe/Widow/hitscan in general.
I don’t know what game you’re playing where a hog nerf means shields are viable and Winston can do his job.
Snipers don’t care about Winston, they care about other snipers.

Ah yes GM. Where snipers aren’t a problem and Dive only never worked because hog was meta.
That just shows he plays the best heroes if he’s trying to win… Do you not pick the best heroes if you’re good at them and trying to win?
ana is the golden child, cant nerf her
Well, if they did something like this, then sniping would be less of a problem.
Throw in something like this, to drop those boosted Ashe headshots down too.
As for Ana and Roadhog, they could do this:
