Soldier should run faster

he cant shoot or reload while running. It’s a tool mostly used to escape your enemies but sometimes that speed isnt enough, as there are enemies with better mobility or they just shoot at you, it’s fun running in zig zag to dodge stuff but in the end it makes you goin a bit slower than goin in a straight line.

Now that’s what I’m talking about

yeah it can be used that way but most of the time you want it when being dove to escape.

He is too old for that.

you guys always dismiss healthy buffs. its not like you are going to lose more games because soldier can run faster.

also quelithe: back in overwatch 1 I found you in a game and I knew you from the forums, asked to add you as a friend but you ignored me so much.

Soldier is already pretty strong. We’re in a hitscan meta. Survivability buffs are arguably the most impactful. I think that it would be a bad idea.

Did they ever revert the 10% speed nerf on Sprint now that the DPS passive has changed? If not, they should lol.

As someone who plays a lot of soldier, I think his run speed is just fine.

he’s my most played dps by far (+150h) and I always wanted him running faster.

He’s my second most played hero at 507 hours, and I think his run speed is prefectly fine.

ok dude but wouldnt you take a bit more of speed if you could? I mean would you be opposed to that buff? I don’t think so

Not every buff is needed or healthy. He’s fine.

It can change places he’d be able to get to via rocket jumping, so honestly I would prefer they dont change things that can drastically alter his gameplay like that so he can’t suddenly get to weird spots. This game has a history of giving seemingly innocuous buffs that end up having unpredictable outcomes that result in more nerfs.

So all things considered, no I really dont think he needs the change at all. I’ve pretty much never been in a scenario where I think “wow if i was only 5-10% faster during sprint this whole situation would be different.” I just position well at a distance to begin with and reposition during down time in fights.
