So today, the forums requested the following nerfs

While browsing the forums today I saw the following nerfs requested for a variety of reasons.

  • Tracer Nerfs
  • Genji Nerfs
  • Mercy Nerfs
  • Lucio Nerfs
  • Rein Nerfs
  • Ashe Nerfs
  • Reaper Nerfs
  • Ana Nerfs
  • Sombra Nerfs
  • Sym Nerfs
  • Dva Nerfs
  • Brig Nerfs
  • McCree Nerfs
  • Widow Nerfs
  • Hanzo Nerfs
  • All Tanks
  • All Supports

I suppose if the hero wasn’t listed here they are Under Powered or Balanced. :man_shrugging:t5:

10 hps is way too powerful, GOATS is out of control with the payload + Lucio + Brig. That is 42 hps right there.

Do threads about entire groups count? Pretty sure I saw nerf tanks, like all of them.

Makes sense. Every time my brain reads “Nerf bastion” it auto-translates it to “I have a L2P issue”. Works every time.

Oh they were threads.

Edit: Just realized you were talking about Moira. Then yeah, no threads.

payload best healer

Not with 0 posts but there was another NERF request from someone who doesn’t know how she works. Again. Lol

Was the Sym thread by any chance written by a silver Genji main? I’ve seen my fair share of “oMg tUrReTs sO oP tHeY kiLl mE sO fAsT” as if that isn’t the reason they have 30 hp and can die with a single punch.

Absolutely disgusting

Here you go buddy. Have fun. https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/overwatch/t/moira-and-mei-need-nerfs/296843

Sadly, the vast majority of topics and their responses here are almost entirely of nerf hero X or buff hero Y, justified soley on armchair statistics (pick rate is king, but feel free to throw in winrate, damage, healing, elims, or even fire time) from whichever bracket fits the narrative. Heroes that are nerfed are naturally met with complaints from their mains, who in turn are sneered at by others for “abusing” said hero or their mechanic and always now “need to git gud” and/or “learn other heroes.” Occasionally there are other UI requests (e.g., social tools and QOL suggestions) which tend to be met with disagreement or left forgotten.

When I look around here, all I ever see is nerf/buff hero whining, people either bashing on each other or the developers, occasional SJW topics (sometimes completely unrelated to the game), or complainers complaining about complainers. Rarely are the topics thought-provoking or educational. It makes these forums out to be a sad, whiney place.

Lol another one just popped up
