stop trying to tell me what I do wrong, u never seen me playing Widow… im not standing infront of an Orisa shield and sniping it… I know what to do against shields… but if people wants to avoid themselves from getting sniped they CAN do that… theres shields, theres obstacles and theres a lot of long range abilities that made to also annoy the Widow behind.
I assume that u never used Widow and youre just talking about her simply because she sniped u tons of times and ure tired of it… u cant appriciate her skill and the way she do that…
im not playing Junkrat and dont act like Master players cant play the game… to get GM from Masters its probably the easist road.
im not trying to make Widow viable in any maps, there are maps that she should not be used because shes not that effective there BUT… with all of the changes in game right now nerfing Widow’s hook was not needed.
they buffed her for a REASON… go read the reason of the developers urself, they made an 8 seconds cd hook to let her survive more, shes weak and shes not able to fight an enemy in close range.
shes totaly different than ANY other dps in game just because of the fact that shes a sniper.
every other dps can deal with mid range heros, Widow cant…
when somoene dives on a Widow all she can do is to use her hook to escape and sometimes u have the chance to 1 shot the enemy before u die which is not that simple.
now its not like 8 seconds hook feels like 2 seconds… when shes using the ability she still have to use it again in 8 seconds which is long enough compared to the other mobility abilities in game.
her hook used to:
- positioning
- escaping
- killing
its not going to be easy to play her and to be based on 10 seconds cooldown to do your job.
if u position urself to hit someone, the enemy can see u a sec after, dive on you and youre pretty much dead, even with 8 seconds hook.
if the enemy doesnt see u in 10 seconds u can use ur hook to escape… then they will simply dive on u again to the position where u cant use any mobility - this happens the same wih 8 seconds! so why do we need it with 10 seconds?
if youre using ur hook to kill someone, u cant position urself for 10 seconds, u cant escape for 10 seconds… this is INSANE it should not be like this.
8 seconds is balanced enough for the weakst hero in the game. and ya shes probably strong… but shes weak… every hero feel like Widow is totaly easy to kill, killing her when shes scoped is like 40-60 bullets right to her head… comon dude…
you might be a GM, probably a support main… u really never played Widow u will never understand what im saying. your comments comes from frustration… u dont like to get sniped just like many people, I can understand that… but Widow is here to stay and snipers are still in the game.
