I agree with you Aim is overrated.

Reaper is hard countered by Brig. Yes, he can kill her, but only if he’s a really good reaper. Generally, all that armor Brig spits out is going to make things a lot harder for Reaper.
Sombra can help to kill Brig, but has a hard time 1v1.
D.va can’t really kill Brig without help, her damage is too low and too spread out.
Winston has too low of a health pool and too low damage to be able to kill Brig without assistance, but being able to shot through her shield makes it easier for his teammates to take her out.
everything else I agree with.

What’s your point? All you did was agree with 70% of what I said, and call the other 30% annoying, which also isn’t saying that I’m wrong.

ok well then
Reaper - burst damage, has an escape mechanism if you’re not landing the headshots quick enough,but risky and not as forgiving as Brigg
Pharah - splash damage, ranged, burst.I’ll give you that one.But easily countered by hitscan on Briggs team.
Doomfist - stun, burst damage,annoying to everyone else too(this counts for him deffinietly).Fight stun with stun.
Widowmaker - range, easy damage when she’s not actively trying to stop you from shooting her,a sniper that can stay out of a fight
Hanzo - burst damage, range
[/quote],a sniper that can stay out of the fight(not saying they don’t counter her,but they can counter everyone else too.Sniper meta was a thing,and no one liked it.)
I must be a better Reaper/Sombra/D.va than the ones you’ve seen then (Idk how to say that without being like, narcissistic xD) , I don’t usually lose (genuine, like no outside interference) 1v1’s against Brigitte on those characters.
Wouldn’t know about Winston, I don’t play him that much but Winston is always the bane of my existence when I’m already 1v1’ing someone else xD
First, I have to say I agree with the OP that OW is not meant to be your typical shooty-shooty-hoppy-hoppy FPS-Style game… it needs low aim mechanic heroes…
Secondly, I agree with the above post - from bronze through the Pro scene, there are people at every level posting rationale arguments that Brig is OP… if it were one or two lower tiers, I might buy that she’s really balanced without good counter (like say Pharah), but that is not the case. OTOH, she’s not as bad as most people make out, she’s very effective against divers as she is meant to be. It’s outside that context that her effectiveness is too high. yes, she can’t duel one on one at starting health with a Rein, but if he is even partially injured she stands to win probably over half the time, therein lies the problem.
I still contend that a large part of the issue is the graphic impact on a player she is attacking … that whip shot in your face is a bit like Rein’s, it seems to intimidate and disorient people and they seem to suddenly not fight… I’ve been on both sides of that and I think it’s a real thing causing people to not fight when they should. Her other issue is her health pool+armor is just too high, or Inspire on her should be reduced to say 50% of it’s value… to cut down on her longevity…
I still don’t understand what you’re trying to say, are you trying to argue about the sniper thing? Because RANGE IS A BRIGITTE COUNTER. 
Range and burst/splash damage 
Also if you’re trying to counter Brigitte as Pharah and you’re being out played by the enemy hitscan either get a Mercy pocket or I dunno, play a DIFFERENT Brigitte counter lmao
Ah nevermind.Eitherway the statistics show that Brigg is above average,and they’re constantly going up.So we’ll see how things go for her in the future.
Lol they should have another discussion area that is just “safe space for brig mains”
Stop reposting those counters because it is not that simple, most of those are barely counters and can only be considered soft counters for 1v1 situations. The armour she provides is super strong as well as he pretty good cc healing. Her armour makes killing her and every other hero on the enemy team much more difficult.
The only way to beat an enemy team with a brig is get one yourself. I dislike widow for that reason but I have to counter pick to her if the enemy has one. They are both heroes that can only really be countered by themselves
Low aim doesn’t always mean low skill, take Rien and Winston. While they don’t need aim and are accessible to new players they skill can have might higher impacts the better you are, basically a high skill ceiling, while some of the other heros not only have a low skill floor (Something I’m not opposed to) they have a low skill ceiling and they’re being balanced by equalling skill ceilings which causes frustration that a hero that needs perfect timing, aim, or knowledge can be stopped easily by a hero that does not require nearly the same level. My personal thoughts are that the same skill from each area should be able to counter the other. For example we’ll use a 1-100 scale. At the moment a 95 cap aim hero being played at 85 can be countered by a 70 cap knowledge hero playing at 60. I think that if hero A is being played at 80 aim (cap at 90) and hero B is being played at 80 knowledge (cap 85) they should be about equal (not taking class advantages into account, this will allow the higher skill heros (not just meaning aim but gamesense as well) to be able to reap the rewards of their harder mastery instead of taking hundreds of hours to master a hero being equal to a mastery of 80 hours
Honey just because you can’t counter the Brigitte with a 6 metre range by using literally one of her many counters doesn’t mean you need to keep having a go ok?
All this brig hate should apply to so many diffrent heroes (roadhog to an extent, rienhardt, old symm, moira)
To bad they need to start nerfing tracer if the only hard counter keeps getting gutted. But whatever, eventually the hate will shift to another hero and they will be the next target of constant OP accusations.

OW has come to the point where Aim = Skill, hence why Widowmaker is said to require skill… I mean, don’t get me wrong, she does require skill, like positioning, when to Ult and Venom mine scouting. But other than that, she’s a simple sniper.

Actually, i’d say a better way to fix her would be
- make sure she cant 1 shot combo anything but the squishiest of squishies
- reduce the health of her shield a bit.
But, y’know, progressive small and sensible nerfs are the way.

Actually they nerfed the weakest part of her kit once.

To be real the only characters she can one shot combo are Tracer and Baby D.va imagine if she could like, I dunno, punch 250 HP characters to their death against a wall in a second though, or constantly throw three throwing stars and melee to death, man, that’d be real unfair huh?
Nvm I checked your profile and you play on console, I have never played on there so I don’t actually know the climate. Playing on PC might not be the same. In terms of what we both see in our games we might have very different experience’s. This is why i have said before they should have separate sections for console and PC players.
oh yeah they nerfed pulse bomb didn’t they
Even I think she didn’t need that lmao xD

Are you actually saying that doomfist is more OP than brig?
