By this reasoning no one should ever play Sombra either.
Every game I play with a sombra on my team we lose, unless the other team has a Sombra and a thrower.
It is fun to see people that got flamed for whatever reason being the ones carrying a game and/or being on cards with important stats for the flamer and everyone who read it to see, this is so true
I’m not nessecarily talking about the damage card. But if the person that got flamed for not doing anything (assuming dps) is on cards for say 70% kill participation or elims, that shows the person did more than just anything in most cases. Yes, there are some scenarios to every card where it is not productive, but clearly not all the time.
It can also be a healing card if the person was accused of not healing at all. It all depends on the situation.
People hate genji because of his ult. Remove his party wipe ult, make it insta-gib single target, radically buff his standard kit to make it competitive enough.
He’s supposed to feel like a ninja but he plays more like an acrobatic pea-shooting sword mage.
But this is an issue with the DPS roster as a whole. Since role-lock, quite a few characters need a tweak.
I mean it’s like life is more complicated than a Boolean statement. Widow can be both a God and a glorified scarecrow. That’s why most people hate her to begin with.
You’re just not likely to be as upset your team has the god and the enemy team has the scarecrow.
(Maybe you would if you have a lot of empathy, but it’s hard to be empathetic with a lot of the people you meet playing Overwatch. )
Honestly though it is tough to be the worse widow in the game.
Because the other widow keeps killing you, but if you switch, then there is no one to counter her. No matter how good you actually are.
I mean just having another widow on the other team changes how aggressively you can play as widow.
I remember backfilling for No Limits. Their team all Moira. My team, 5 Genji. I knew we’d get stomped and I knew we wouldn’t stand a chance. But for the sake of spamming “I need healing” and “Mada Mada”, I still selected Genji and “Mada Mada-ed” my way to a glorious flaming defeat!
