Back to Back “Supports” That Require 0 mechanical skill, and are so apparent that they are OP, I for one can not wait till the game dies out, and its already on hard decline with PUBG and FORTNITE Doubling or Tripling the Current Players Category.
Blizzard Needs to Learn that having no mechanical skill will drive out the Real people that play games no the ones that play sims and mobile phones and then go to overwatch and pick mercy or moira and think they that are actually good.

Yes, because aiming is the only skill that you need to win. -_- /s

Supports aren’t for mechanical skill, they’re about gamesense and ability management. It’s not about healing that Genji from halfway across the map with a no-scope Ana dart, it’s about knowing whether you should put yourself at risk to do so. Supports already have enough to worry about besides hitting skill shots.
Also I downloaded Fortnite today. It’s… underwhelming.

Ow isnt about mechanical skill
There are plenty of heroes that use other skills other than aim
Aim gets you nowhere if you lack everything else

Zen and ana cover that mechanical aim itch but well the dps players don’t usually pick them up as they could just go an actual dps hero instead.

Battle Royale isn’t really that great and I don’t see the hype for it. I played it years ago as a mod for Arma 2 and didn’t think anything of it then, either.
Cus people dont wanna die of boredom playing moira or mercy or brigitta and holing mouse 1.

Fortnite has over 3+ million players and PUBG has 2+million so the majority of gamers dont agree with you.

That’s fine. I disagree with majority of gamers and see hitscan as easy/boring, but then I’ve been playing FPS games since the 90s.
Good players not Mercy or Moira or Brigitta Players there is a difference.

You realize only mercy has to consistently m1 since her kit is super passive? as for moira and brig you are hyper active while acting in the fight.

I’m just gonna say this, then go- Overwatch’s roster is meant to be inclusive for every type of gamer. Someone like me that has immense tactical knowledge but only average aim find heroes like Mercy and Moira to be fun and challenging. The tanks require a similarly low amount of aim, but determine a game’s outcome through knowing which battles to pick and deciding where the front line is- drawing in people who play tower defense and objective-driven games. If the game was based only on mechanical skill, it wouldn’t have half the players it does right now. Fortnite seems more like a game of chance, and whoever sneaks up first and actually manages to use the shotgun right wins.

The reason they’re actually making all these “no skill” supports are so that more players gravitate towards the support. I’ve been on too many games where no one can “play support” so I get stuck with the job. The dev’s thought that maybe making more offensive oriented supports would lead to those that play more DPS to lean towards the support side.
And idk about your comparisons with fortnight and PUBG, they’re completely different games compared to OW

MECHANICAL SKILL IS NOT THE ONLY SKILL REQUIRED
THERE ARE DIFFICULT HEROES (INCLUDING ALL ROLES) THAT DO NOT RELY ON MECHANICAL SKILL IN ORDER TO BE DIFFICULT
OVERWATCH CATERS TO ALL PLAYERS
