You still could counter her you know.
Ana, Lucio & Moira are propably the best counters to Widow from support group (plus teamwork/communication with your other teammates) imo.
??? Are u talking about silver gold rank? Because in gm, if the support try that, is throwing and will be reported for being boosted, because that is a low Elo tactic.

Any rank really. If youāre really gm how your teammates cant help you then if you cant deal with Widow?
Also, who really cares if some silly randoms are telling you that being boosted? Thatās just 1 way to tilt others & lose the game.
Sorry, but hell no, maybe in silver sure.
But jf you actually think a GM Widowis going to be countered by an Ana, your an idiot.
Widow has is one if the main reasons GOATs, the most OP meta to date, came into existence.
Deny this fact all you want, all it does is make you look like the biased idiot you are.

Here comes the scapegoats :)) Also, goats op? Thx for the good laughs.
I get it you like to call others idiots on the internet but thatās bit rude & childish way to discuss with people.
And Ana was just 1 example I used. No idea why youāre getting so steamed up.
Also, iāve seen gm/higher ranked Widows getting countered by ana/other supports, etc (on streams vink vink & on scrims too)
Hamster literally deletes her.
Also I have respect for widow players far more than doom and hanzo.

I have 90 hours on her. SHE IS PROBLEMATIC. This has always been the case. She has been meta even in a meta where she should have sucked.
Widow is a TERRIBLE hero and needs to be nerfed.

Widow is so damn easy to get value out of, if you can aim that is.
The only thing I really fear is another Widow or a good Genji

consistent one shots are busted and shouldnāt be a part of the game. Something like rein charge is fine because itās on a high cooldown, is very telegraphed, and is hard to hit. Even Hog hook is fine to some extent because, again, itās on a fairly high cooldown and itās not too difficult to play around.
Hanzo, widow, and doomfist are extremely lame because you just feel like there was no counterplay to your death, you just went from full health to 0 in an instant.

Agreed, kinda feels bad that Iām forced to play 2 shield every game just to check one hero. Sheās in need of tuning

or you know you can run dive and make her day a living hell but hey itās like anyone actually wants to play this game, instead they just complain that such and such is OP and has no counters. meh
I mean every role has some way of counteracting her in some way or at the very least can play in away that makes her job harder.
Yes, letās build a whole composition of obsolete heroes to counter one other
and letās ignore the rest of their team
Seems very smart indeed

Suuuuuuuuureā¦ Even if you had āā90hāā on her why on earth they should listen players on these forums whos suggesting nonesense ideas for either heroes they hate/or when that 1 heroās killed themā¦
And no, Widow isnt terrible, the players are (specially those who wants an dumb way to escape by nerfing heroes f tier who they doesnt like to play against, etc)
Also, sheās not problematic/problem, itās the players. Not heroes fault actually.
You arent either tbh. Sooooā¦ maybe either dont say if you dont have anything else āāproductiveāā to say or stay quiet.

A good widow makes me put on my try-hard pants and focus her.
Unfortunately i canāt switch to widow anymore. 
Iām more happy to die to a Widow who actually had to hit an insane headshot rather than die to a Doomfist who just stunned me and one-shotted me by a body-shotā¦ Iām not saying that Doomfist takes no skill cuz he does but Widow takes a lot of skills tooā¦
And at least Dooms is every 4, and is usually used for escape(By good dooms)
Yet, even at the Pro level Widow pushed Genji out and became one of the staples of dive.
Almost like, Widows best counters stacked on a team STILL arenāt enough.

Gotta love these threads full of people that STILL donāt know how to counter widow.
Never gets old.
