But that is drastic to nerf a hero. That’s the problem with how and when they nerf.

I’d prefer something more like this approach.

WIDOWMAKER

Widow’s Kiss

• Maximum base damage increased from 120 to 125.
• Critical Headshot modifier reduced from 2.5x to 2x.
• 60% damage dropoff between 40 meters to 50 meters range.

Comments: The damage-dropoff basically does the “Map Based Changes” without the ridiculously resource-intensive map changes.

HANZO

StormBow (Primary Fire), Sonic Arrow

• Damage reduced down from 125 to 75.
• Maximum projectile speed increased from 110m/s to 150m/s.
• Bow pull charge speed increased by 25%.

Sonic Arrow

• Flashes red “Detected” message on enemy’s screens when they first enter detection range.

Comments: Hanzo is largely a “Sniper” hero that gets used in Brawl more often. So let’s turn him into more of a Brawl type hero. Additionally, Sonic Arrow is nearly inaudible/invisible to opponents, so change that so it can be counterplayed.

SOJOURN

Railgun (Primary Fire)

• Fire rate increased from 14 to 15 shots per second.
• Accuracy spread decreased by 39%.

Railgun (Alternate Fire)

• Damage reduced from 130 to 120.
• Can not deal critical headshot damage.

Railgun (Alternate Fire)

• Can deal critical headshot damage.

Comments: Basically just reverting the primary fire nerfs, then making the Railgun more similar to a hitscan Soldier rocket. Rather than a 195 damage “basically a oneshot”.
