The only supports who may need further nerfs are Ana and Bap. Otherwise, I have to tell you to get better. DPS are kind of notorious for ridiculous positioning, bad target priority and lacking team coordination.

Had a game in a Master 2 lobby yesterday

Genji tried to Solo blade a Moira; who had every cooldown up, standing ontop of a hacked mega

And they cried and said Kiriko was overpowered

The Kiriko tp’d in AFTER the Genji was dead

No, we are not. There are enough counters and strategies that force me to either switch or to play near my team to have help (I play almost all supports myself). Ana and Bap are broken, the rest all have downsides that are exploitable.

The main reason is why you dont feel pressured is then mostly because the enemy DPS refuse to switch to a better pick or rather focus the tank. Its a DPS issue.

what possible nerfs could you still want to the role?? asides from bap and ana there’s not much you could nerf without suffering some pretty strong consequences to queue times.

people have to want to play the game remember?

LW feels a lot worse with his nerf :face_exhaling:

I wish instead of increasing cooldowns they would decrease them and make the abilities a bit less powerful. That way you could use them more often and they wouldn’t be so annoying to play against.

These trash threads are getting very, very repetitive and predictable. DPS players will not rest until all of the Supports are unplayable.

Yeah, I am also still waiting, Hachiko smokes aside looking at me now.

The problem is with his 75 healing, you wouldn’t always charge it to full, but those few hp points of buffer at least made it more workable; I find myself healing for 50-60 hp now which is often not really enough at times from how much damage is in the game

His issue was the speed of his tree showing up; all they needed to do was change the charge for his ult and he would have been fine.

Now he feels like a worse Mercy, and that’s saying something

They will bury this game before they figure out how to not 2v1 a pocket.

Well Ana is probably going to get nerfed if they want the FOMO money. Or they could choose not to make money…

no we aren’t. the only overtuned/overpowered heroes are bap, ana, and kiriko. all 3 need to have their abilties fundamentally changed.

ana shouldn’t PREVENT healing but instead should have affected enemies hit by biotic grenade have incoming healing to them reduced by 50% (yes it will still be strong, because that would mean a mercy would deal 27.5 hps, ana dealing 35, etc). kiriko shouldn’t have an immortality + cleanse but instead, should reduce incoming damage to affected suzu’d allies by 50% along with keeping the cleanse. bap just needs his shift changed to no longer burst, have increased healing under 50%, and should just be a pure 60 hps for 5 seconds.

if they need further buffs to compensate for such changes, then so be it. but when actual logical players say that supports need nerfs, we mean that Ana, Baptiste, and Kiriko need nerfing.

I agree on that.
Hell, let it be only Ana, because her nade is without a doubt one of the single strongest abilities in the game.
