Please nerf Nano Boost (or the blade itself)

Nano blade is still too strong, its very much a team wiping combo with very few hard to pull of counters.

You simply know that if the enemy team has a Genji and Ana, that sooner or later, the entire team is gonna die from this combo, over and over again.

Increasing Ana’s ult charge by 20%, for example, would be great. Lower the duration of her anti while you are at it…

Edit:

Or if you don’t want the support to be punished, which i do understand, then nerfing Genji’s blade and his 15m dash is totally justified too. I really don’t care who gets the nerf, this has to stop either way.

I guess in some comps its hard to counter but very few of nanoblades counters are hard to pull off

Blade & dash has to be nerfed and we need more counterplay for this cheap combo. People say it’s 2 ults so it should be teamwipe. No it shouldn’t be an insta-win button.
The amount of skill & luck a tank needs to shut down this cheap combo is way higher than Nanoblade needs with the generous dash range (15m) and blade range (5m) except maybe Hog, but even then you gotta make sure he doesn’t have deflect.
Lucio being only reliable counter is stupid.
So they should reduce dash range to 10 meters on experimental card and test it.

Why is it that when an offensive ult is causing issues when boosted the first reaction is to nerf the support boosting despite them having a perfectly fine interaction with most other ultimates?

Hey, im all for nerfing Genji some more, but i don’t want them going reeeeeeeeeee

Zarya pressed q on the ground

Shatter is quite hard ngl

Dva can press q but its map specific

Winston is quite hard

Hog is really easy

yeah youre clearly biased

Hog, Lucio, Sigma, Reinhardt, Zarya, Sombra (ehh kinda), Orisa can halt, Sleep dart, D.VA (Ult), and just generally trying to fight back.

It’s almost never a teamwipe unless you get a 6 person grav and get very, very lucky. I only have a few hours on Sigma but I can solo shutdown a blade by myself.

Play lucio beat plus boop = a mostly wasted combo.

be it at the moment Genji’s ult charge is a little fast, but once the nerfs go through tomorrow maybe?

beat should be in line with the combo in question.

And that’s blade’s problem, not nanos. How about we don’t punish every other hero in the game who could use nano just because Genji made it super stong? Why don’t we focus on the one character that gets insane value out of nano?

No, he got reverted. And not Genji nerf, but his ult nerf. Like dash reset working every other kill at least?

No. No, it would not be.

Reliable counter I meant. Those are not reliable counters, you nees to be lucky and have very good reaction time for those

That removes the point of reset

You mean most of them.

Literally only Zen’s ult counters it. Stunning the Genji is not a “nanoblade counter”.

Yup. That’s the actual problem here, not Ana’s nano.

honestly they could get away with with a combo specific nerf

if (nano.target = genju)
{
damageBoost = 1.20;
damageRessit = 1.20;
}
else
{
damageBoost = 1.50;
damageRessit = 1.50;
}

I already, said. A bronze trashy Sigma like me is still able to counter them. Hog is super easy, just aim at the general direction.

you really expect them to aim???

Wait I didn’t think of that, dang it.

If only… But, knowing Jeff, he will literally punish every other hero in the game for one specific combo.

By the time you lift him up in the air with Sigma he already killed the supports…
Also Hog might be a good counter to nanoblade but except that he is still not so viable in the double shield meta…
