Perfect plan to nerf Genji

They acknowledge there support queue problem. They never tied it to flankers.

Is that so?

@AndyB-11735

With Sombra’s rework, she gained a lot more damage to help account for the reduced ability lockout duration of Hack. This has proven to be too deadly for a flanker with easy access to the enemy backlines, and we’ve similarly had to address the damage output of heroes like Tracer, Reaper, and now, Genji, in the 5v5 format.

Genji players are very vocal but coming back to some of our sensitivity around the support role and protecting those players a little bit here. Genji just had a little bit too much burst damage. We want to bring them in line with the other flankers.

@Kaedi

Even in some of our data, we saw an uptick in a ton of different heroes as ways to feel better about playing against Genji. Moira players took off, so you know that we’ve seen a lot of reactions, not just from how players feel and how they’ve been giving feedback but even their hero selection to avoid some of those encounters they’ve had with Genji.
