Starting with Freja , sigma, hog, junkrat… too much burst.
The issue isn’t the damage, it’s the amount of self-healing. The buff to her right click self-healing was a curious one.
Yes, she totally can miss.

It’s perhaps because of more fun.
Ideally, people should be able to enjoy any character in any tier without disadvantage. But too low skill floor characters(skill check characters) often prevent some(relatively high skill floor characters) characters practically in the casual tiers where most people play.
I know there can be skill floor diffs naturally when there are so many characters even if the devs try to make them balanced in most tiers as much as possible. But it seems these devs don’t care about that at all. They even twisted the skill floor intentionally, like Moira. I don’t get it tbh.
You gotta be really really bad to miss as Moira. Like it’s hard to miss. You almost have to do it on purpose.
I saw some Moiras who just hold down rightclick all the time except when she uses other abilities. So she misses always when there’s no target.
It indeed has no notable penalty, unless Ana sleeps the target or whatever because it has no ammo and no speed penalty. Blizz perhaps could implement her rightclick as toggle for QoL like Mercy.
By 6 points. Not that big of a deal in a game with a dps passive that hinders all healing.
She self heals 22hps instead of 18 hps with the change.
And with the move to 30%, she self heals 21hps.
just saw this on reddit… kind of hillarious

20hp.
i don’t like moira because i main juno and when i play her, there is absolutely no opportunity for outplay. she flat out heals more than i do damage unless i get the master blaster major perk and hit a torpedo+ full double headshot which is not really practical most of the time. (moira gets to crouch strafe/have insane movement at no penalty to her own accuracy, lowering her skill floor even lower).
it is frustrating to face a hero with a skill floor lower than the mariana trench that you simply cannot outplay while the enemy simply does nothing.
She also suffers from kiriko or more infamously sombra-syndrome where when she is low, she just gets to fade away.
I actually would much rather face/duel a sombra, tracer, kiriko, etc. because when i die to them i know i’ve been beat.
When i die to moira its just like, “yup, she held her mouse down and threw an orb at her foot.”
When i’m plaing someone else, it just feels frustrating because even if the enemy is better and could have outplayed me, its just like “moira held her mouse down and i messed up” and human psychology finds that frustrating.
Now, i’m also not saying she should be nerfed/changed. It’s not like juno herself has the highest skill floor and i can just swap to kiri or bap or like anyone else to deal with moira if she is actually a problem, especially in 6v6. I don’t even think moira is particularly good.
However, if i could remove one character, it’s easily moira. she’s just lame in my opinion but i’m not the only person playing and i get that others enjoy her for whatever reason and they are entitled to that.
i think mercy is a bigger problem then moira… (i had to record that reddit widow video)
