No More Goats FeelsGoodMan

Just want to say, praise to Blizzard for finally Made Brig balance almost 9 months later. I watched Kabaji stream for 3 hours since patched kicked in and I seen absolute no Goats at all expect a one trick Brig player on his team. Thank u Blizzard making the game fun again :slight_smile:

Sorry to ruin your day, but GOATS is still here. If anything it’s better than before due to the buffs they gave her healing to compensate for the nerfs. Only thing that’s gone is the bash + shatter combo.

Yeah that 0.67hp/sec extra healing is exactly what goats needed. Such an OP buff.

I dunno man, that plus the extra 20 healing you get out after a fight is already over is probably a bit much.

also /s

It’s arguably worse since you steal ult charge from other supports with better ults.

If goats leaves, which I doubt, it will because people are trying new things with the patch like they always do and it is no longer the popular play.

This was a ā€œfeelsgoodmanā€ patch. A slight of hand to make players THiNK they adjusted the balance, when in reality they did just about nothing to address the ā€œrealā€ issue.

They’ve done it before with several minor buffs to Symm also… without touching her… and they did it before with Doomfist’s shields to make people see how OP he really was.

shhhhh

let them be stupid and think stupid thoughts. people might try to play a different more interesting hero and be all like YO #DELETEBRIG REPRESENT

Goats is stronger now that Reinhardt cant be sheild bashed

Permanent armor is p damn good tho lmao

It’s actually a massive buff to organised team fights and work. Top 500 will play fun heroes until they see the pros still run goats almost all the time and then the meta or bits of it will trickle down the ladder regardless of viability at your or my level of play, hence why we have a bunch of Ana’s who can’t shoot in our games.

Since when are fights over in 5 seconds? They sure as hell aren’t in top level games.

Better ults like Moira coalescence? Ana nano boost can flop sometimes. Zen ult is better but is almost always used defensively. Rally is a great ult which can be used anytime both offensively and defensively.

GOATS is here to stay until they implement 2-2-2

The duration of inspire is much longer than the actual CD, meaning so long as you’re actively hitting things, the timer will constantly be resetting and the healing won’t run out anyways.

Literally the only time it should ever run out is if there’s no longer anything near you to hit, which usually means the fight is over.

To beat goats, you need a coordinated team, the right map, and 3-4 dps. I done it last night.

My team ran Goats on Busan Sanctuary. We rolled hard.
Enemy team runs Mei Goats on MEKA base. We got rolled hard.
My team switch to 3 ranged dps + Brig + Mercy + Winston on downtown, dancing around the high ground while enemy capped point. We forced the enemy back to 2-2-2 after some patient play and surrounding them.

My team won btw

There is no such thing as a mei goats. Mei can be used to counter goats (especially on 2cp maps) but G.O.A.T.S. is GO ALL TANKS / SUPPORTS. Noone is arguing that it isn’t possible to simply outplay the enemy team but the fact remains is that you’re still at disadvantage with most other comps. It’s not so prevalent in solo queue, and especially at ranks below masters, but as soon as you stack 6 stacking all you see is goats most of the time,.
