This is meta is genuinely worse than goats

Somehow this meta is even less fun and more imbalanced.

And the game has been getting steadily worse each time. :thinking: Power creep is a hell of a drug.

True… I wonder if it’s the same drug the forums are on

I said goats isn’t that bad while it was goin’ but whatever. It is better than any orisa meta.

What’s that? The new meta is worse than the last one? Gee, I never heard that one before.

If we Symmetra mains can walk away from this meta without being nerfed into the ground,then i think this meta was a nice experience.

Maybe after this the bias against this particular hero is reduced a little.

That being said,the main reason everyone hates this meta is simply because of the double shields…double shields exists because without shields you are dead. No amound of healing protects you from a Hanzo log or a Rocket punch or even a Reaper face to face. Nerf Burst damage and suddenly double shield disappear and more heroes can breathe.

Sigma has seriously degenerated the game with his overtuned kit. I really hate the way devs handle new releases at Blizzard nowadays as the same awful stuff happened a lot in hots too making meta garbage for a while

Except if you only nerf burst, then shields stay up forever and nobody dies, but if you nerf shields too, then they’ll just burn through them easily, so then you have to nerf damage again, but now shields are too powerful, so we have to nerf shields more

see the problem?

No,i dont.
Because the only reason right now that non-shield/off tanks are not played, are the huge amount of burst damage.
Once these heroes dont get decimated in a blink of an eye when they dare to step out from a shield or a cover, shield tanks will become less common once again.

I’m used to read this line each meta… sure goat was awful to see, (more boring than afwul to me)

but this meta of ‘‘hold left click to kill’’ well… is kinda goin up to my dislikes.

If you nerf burst damage, then sustained damage becomes viable. Sustained damage breaks barriers more easily. And sustained damage is countered by non-barrier tanks.

When was this said??

I don’t think it’s worse than GOATS. GOATS at it’s peak was so strong that almost no DPS could even be played.

At least we have some options now.

Don’t get me wrong. Orisa and Sigma are completely busted. I think if those two heroes and maybe Widow / Doom were nerfed, it would be significantly better.

I agree!! For supports it’s nice to have shields. It just isn’t fun for dps because they don’t get to just shoot at whatever they want for free

and some other sources

It’s pretty boring on support, too. I’m doing much less hero damage and spending a significant amount of time just shooting shields.

FRREAKIN DIVE META IS THE WO… BEYBLADE IS SUCH TRA… MOTH META SUCKS SO MU…

look… we’ve heard it before.
