They simply hate certain heroes more than others.
They recreated the launch OW1 nearly perfectly, to the point of even re-adding Genji ledge dash and a pseudo Hog Hook 1.0.
Yet they released a completely new (trash) version of Moth Mercy that has never existed before and called it the Moth Meta OWC.
Characters like Doom are literally outshining Mercy in her own event mode.
The devs HATE Mercy.
They only appreciate her for bringing in money with her skins when they need it.
They also kinda messed up D.Va in this mode too. It isn’t recapturing the moment like the first one did. The first classic kinda at least captured the spirit. This one is failing to do that especially because originally there wasn’t a Doomfist in every game. He’s actually ruining the mode along with the obvious mistakes for Mercy.
Why are you whining. It’s not that deep.
devs just like me fr 
Speaking of bringing back inaccurate version of heroes, can someone tell meif I’m just tripping or was Doomfirst really thing strong back then? I don’t remember him nearly oneshotting half of the hero roster with most of his abilities so easily. Unless I’m sitting at full HP, even a 75% charged slam or punch will send me to the shadow realm, not to mention his ult is a death sentence almost no matter how far from the center I am.
I can’t tell if I just don’t remember him being this strong or if they somehow made him hit way harder. Or maybe all of the Doomfist connoisseurs came out of their caves to dominate this mode. I just don’t know.
I wouldnt be proud of that lmao
It’s this one. Doom has always been strong to the point of being OP. But he also has a high skill ceiling so not that many people played him. More people play him now than used to and so it’s just rough. The only reason people didn’t complain more about him back then was because of how few people actually really knew how to use him. But that is no longer true, which is the problem.
Even doom isn’t 1:1 he as a truck load of problems too.
People just like DPS doom and he’s the most fun hero to ever exist lol. If anything, this event should be showing them that dps doom should’ve never left.
The doom that was never meta?
Never even a top 3 pick?
That doom?
I remember in Diamond+, Doom was in every game back then too. Forcing Sombra/Cassidy/Road to deal with him, and making the entire game boring.
Also don’t bother responding to that guy, he literally threw a tantrum in another thread because I didn’t agree that Doom should go back to DPS.
Huh. In first classic our main pain were widow and hanzo. Now is doomfist only. I really don’t understand how it works
Sure the devs aren’t lazy, but I could question their priorities.
Play Bap and shoot all your dmg bullets and you’ll get lovely infinite clicking sound, surely such bug will be fixed quickly and won’t be in the game 3+ months.
they are lazy and seems to hate the game or us the players, they cant do one single thing right, they ruined ow classic, this is now how the game was in 2017, mercy was a killing machine, nothing can kill her manwhile using her ult and doomfist wasnt that strong, and his dive attack wasnt so lame
I can’t wait for the Rivals honeymoon phase to wear off so I can finally enjoy OW again like everyone else lol
The Doom thing is just because he was massively overpowered at launch, but nobody knew how to play him yet. Now people who know what they’re doing can easily pull off free instakills at will.
The moral of the story is that Doom ruins every mode, including the live version.
Meh, I have no motivation to play OW anytime soon because of these annoying changes, and that’s considering I have 2 DPS Doomfist/Genjie mains I can invite. I don’t find release DF fun, and this rework Mercy is lame. I don’t mind playerbase pandering, it seems obvious they want to pander to DF/Genjie mains (i.e. sweaty tryhards) and not to Mercy mains (super casual).
Good luck with that, Blizzard.
Damn. I didn’t know the devs were based like that.
we are for 2 months of this honeymoon phase, when is going to end?
Okay, but they are lazy, and Mercy isn’t hated for the reasons some of you think lol.
Yes he was.
I dont like him being able to insta kill pretty much everyone with his punch but I do miss his uppercut tho.
You assume they don’t have the code to that version sitting somewhere on some flashdrive and are just ready to plug it back in.
Yeah, so that’s still more love than Zarya gets. She got one epic during the mirrorwatch thing, one OWL skin and I want to say there one more OWL-something skin and they were both just “sport” theme, cause that’s all they come up with.
