And the irony goes woosh
No hero in this game should be niche.
Not really.
Did you really type that with a straight face?
Same could be said for Symmetra.
No it couldnât.
I see Genji as a free win, as in, unless my team literally throws the match I am going to win against this Genji if he doesnât swap. If I see a Symmetra I still feel like I have to put in effort to make sure I donât lose.
Reducing heroesâ skill floors/skill ceilings is absolutely one of the last things this game needs right nowâŚ
Who in the right mind would nerf Steadfast without nerfing the plague that are CC in this game, the reason may I remind you that this passive was implemented in the first placeâŚ
And letâs not even get to the fact that Reinhardt was just nerfed, but all the other overbuffed heroes have till been left untouched (McCree, etc.)
Disappointing⌠

Letâs not reduce the abundance of cc and powercreep in the game going or bring up the other two tanks sigma and orisa that you severely nerfed, but instead nerf the only viable shield hero.
Now Rein is back to being a pinball for the enemy. Itâs so much fun to play.

Ohhhh, you better not be using sarcasm.
kind of hard to act like Negan through text chat and no meme gifs
Mei, Ashe and genji changes are great but rein and Pharah changes are awful. Yes I agree Pharah needs buffs and rein needs nerfs these are not the parts of their kits that need help. Giving Pharah more survivability is what she shouldâve gotten and reinâs needed the broken collision on charge fixed and an ult charge nerf
Letâs say on average it takes 3-4 seconds to freeze an enemy in a real-life match scenario due to various things that can mitigate the freezing effect. So that works out at being roughly 60-80 ammo used, leaving between 4-6 shots of her icicle.
Her freeze/shoot combo is just as powerful as it was, seeing as you are only every going to get 1 or 2 shots off in most cases before the freeze is over and your enemy scurries away or is already dead with an icicle in their brain.
Whatâs weaker is her ability to repeatedly freeze the same tank over and over again. This gives tanks a better chance to escape Mei. However, Mei can now shoot 2 more icicles per clip if she wanted to.
Theyâve essentially traded freezing ammo for icicle ammo, which I think is the right thing to do. Itâs a redistribution of power that requires a small shift in play style to get the same value out of a hero that has been very strong in the meta for months.

lol why buff Genji, he is already good as it is. Why do they keep buffing DPS heroes that are in a good spot lmao this company
RIP console even more
Because he is not in a good spot. Its actually rather simple reallyâŚ
He is always been in a good spot, what? because they buffed McCree? Because Doomfist is broken? Come on, Genji has been good since launch and now suddenly he is âterribleâ
He was always in a good spot since launch though he has basically received fairly substantive nerfs over the past years coupled with the introductions of characters who can remove his ability to get value and suddenly he went from a good place to a not so good place.
Doomfist is not exactly good right now either so he does not really factor in. McCree is an annoyance but they have existed in metas before. The problem with Genji exists outside of the damage role in that the newer damage and supports are able to make him far less valuable than he used to be.

Iâll repeat myself again. The same could be said for Sym. She doesnât have the mobility and range that Genji does. He can engage and disengage whenever he wants.
Sym on the other hand doesnât have this luxury.
Actually, all that change did was make her splash less rewarding and nothing else; her direct hits stayed the same. This change right now is direct revert of that.
Rein feels like he getâs bullied again. Donât like that change.
this change makes players to use SECONDARY fire more often than PRIMARY fire, which contradicts the meaning of PRIMARY and SECONDARY
