Torb's new "Oops" button

Competitive Discussion
1

Ok so I play a lot of Torb and I’ve noticed the ability to destroy your turret is nice but I keep doing it accidently.

This may be only me because fat fingers or something but if i push forward hard to chase someone i accidently press the joystick and destroy my turret or if i get surprised by an enemy i panic press. I play on xbox controller btw, regardless of which platform i am playing on so this problem happens for me even on pc.

Is this just me or is it too easy to destroy accidently? It often gets me killed with the enemy surviving a fight with a smidgen of hp or i destroy the turret accidently and a it takes ages for me to put a new one down to hold the point/payload. Also if i die because i broke the turret i have to then run all the way back before I can play a new one to help the team.

I’m no game dev but maybe a delay would help? as in, the button has to be pressed for 0.5 or 1 second to destroy the turret to prevent accidental clicks by dopey people like myself? Alternatively different buttons might help, like LB is to throw turret, LB + Left Analog press = destroy, something like that, or left on the d pad to destroy while right on the dpad pulls out the hammer.

Does this happen to anyone else?

I’m on PC, but when I have this problem I rebind the ability to be harder to hit accidentally. My ult is 4 rather than Q. Can this be done on controller?

I personally havn’t seen hotkey rebinding on console, never needed to try till now tbh but i will definitely take a look next time I am on.

It is such a minor thing but it has turned fights against my team because i made a mistake :confused: thank you :slight_smile:

You can rebind all things on console. Clearly you are not a Lucio main.

I play on console too. Xbox one.

If advice to bind it to B.

You don’t want to bind such an ability to Analog that people press for fun.

At least for me I never press B. Infact I removed crouch completely. So find a button you don’t use that often and bind it to that.

there is also the little used d-pad, lol.

I recommend rebinding it to the left arrow on the d-pad. It works heavenly.
