Yo I’ve been summoned.

I legit thought you were JasonBent for a min there bc of the Doomfist pfp.

But I digress. Relating to the topic at hand, genji doesn’t need any compensatory nerfs. If a hero is underperforming, EVEN when there’s metas being played that are supposed to favor him but don’t see him being played, there’s a problem. You don’t need to give a hero compensatory nerfs UNLESS you mega buff them OR collected enough info for a month or two if they’re overperforming.

Small buff him, give him 29dmg shurikens, test the waters for a month or two, if he lands in the right spot, leave him. If he’s underperforming, investigate and small buff another portion and test the waters from there. If he’s overperforming, find a compensatory nerf in a department that makes him pushed over the top.

Let’s just keep it simple and small, and ask for ONLY 29dmg shurikens for now and see where that leads us. Compensate nerf later if necessary but it would be ult charge or spread. I already tested 29dmg shurikens with his current ult charge nerf which it still roughly changes the same rate. Any other changes would just be bug fixes if I’m being honest with you. His dash, deflect, and wall climb need some fixing and QoL changes honestly.

Another fallacy. You truly have no arguments and have to tell others bad to win a discussion. Such a pity that people like you are in the forums. Goodbye and gl getting out of silver.

You can, you’re just not good enough to play him well, and don’t try to scream numbers, pick rates, or anything else that is not relevant.

29 damage for another ult nerf not worth at all. The 15% ult cost increase did great in dumpstering the hero.

remove nano blade, 30dmg shurikens, it’s really not that complicated

The same can be said for Bastion, or Symmetra, or Moira.

The heroes aren’t bad they’re just so hard even most GMs can’t play them.

They can, they just want the game to be easier and not have to try as hard.

OW logic 101: If the hero is too hard, nerf them instead of actually learning them.

Honestly I agree. But he won’t get any buff if it isn’t compensated in his ult. Or people will scream abt how OP he is.

They want to not have to put in 4x the effort everyone else has to.

The input vs output ratio just isn’t worth it for those heroes.

Oh I’m sorry, having to try is bad, confirmed by you?

Thanks for admitting it finally.

Ok are you trolling?

I said they dont want to have to put in 4x the work as everyone else has to. Not just not trying at all.

Not trolling, just funny that you literally just admitted Genji is too hard for most people.

Like, that’s kind of the point of a hero listed as 3 star and hard difficulty.

And there should be some reward for playing him.

You shouldn’t have to be godly to get enough value.

I wouldn’t say that 3 start difficulty means so hard that most gms can’t get value.

There is reward, you have one of the best ultimates in the game, on top of a highly bloated kit that makes balancing him a nightmare, which is why he has not been buffed.

And yes, hard means hard, and just because you’re a GM, does not mean you’re better than someone else. I’ve personally 1v1’d GMs and had them express how annoying my aim and stuff is, but only being plat.

Nice try though.

His kit isn’t a nightmare to balance.

29 dmg.

Can we make him not as hard?

I said it.

I want to be able to play against/with him without them being a liability to their team.

Which would set him into breakpoints that give him the advantage in most fights.

… You really are proving my point that Genji mains want him to be easier while everyone else being harder. How about IMPROVE and stop calling for buffs because YOU aren’t that good on him.

No, you basically said that he’s one if the hardest heroes. A slight buff won’t make him the easiest hero in the game.

We don’t know that. That’s why we can’t experiment.

Dont bother, that person is in every Genji post saying the same damn thing.

You really like to back track and change your narrative as it suits you don’t you? He’s MEANT to be hard to play, I’m sorry that he’s personally too hard for you.

Simple numbers show why 29 damage is too high, and 30 is out of the question. Being able to combo down anything not a tank or Bastion as mobile flank DPS is NOT healthy for the game.

Because I speak from a logical point and not from “OMFG MY GENJI IS NOT META! SPAM FORUMS UNTIL HE IS!”
