Balance patch is releasing in a bit more than one hour and they BETTER nerf this hero! She’s been making the game absolutely miserable for two weeks now (it’s definitely more than two weeks but it’s just unbearable now).
Give her the original projectile size (zero/pinpoint) and reduce her range!
I get the Widow frustration and I am not here to try to extinguish it.
But…y’all…we’ve seen the balance team. Why do we think they’re going to nerf her, when they reworked several maps, nerfed a hero to stop countering her during the season she got a mythic, and never actually addressed her even with the global HP changes and hitbox changes?
She already has to do that… grapple is the only thing keeping her from having a worse death rate than Sombra, who already set a record for highest death rate out of the history of the game…
I honestly don’t think they’re going to touch her. If they did it’s always something with grapple cool down or health to 175. I guess it helps for some heroes to deal with her but if the player can shoot, it isn’t going to change much. Unless another dps becomes better overall than Widow then they just replace the pick
Input to shot delay (small delay between clicking and shooting).
*This gives her an artificial projectile weakness, adding a new element of prediction, or good track-aim skills.
At this point I’d want to test anything out. I just hope that if they do change anything, it’d be beneficial and still make her fun to play.
But, honestly, I’d doubt they even do anything for her. We’re over 8+ years in and they haven’t given her a meaningful change. Even with the HP change, she was still strong.
