I don’t know whose idea it was to put tracer in stadium but please fire this person. Tracer should never be able to be tuned up. Makes the casual experience completely unfun. With no bans you just have to hope their tracer is bad which spoilers they never are. Please nerf her into the twilight zone or remove her because I’m tired of her being in every single game.

It will get a bit better once Torb is added, but indeed Tracer is just the biggest proof of just how… cowardly the devs are when it comes to having actual mobility counters.
Tracer should not have such massive increased survivability to her already massive survivability. Extra HP just breaks her in ways it does to no other hero.

We had a mobility counter. He countered mobility so well that he had his counter utility removed. We also have Brig.
Oh wait…
Man I wonder why mobility is so strong in this game so suddenly

He’s not talking about a “core hero” smooth brain, he’s talking about jacked up tracer in stadium breaking every single facet of her kit. She’s supposed to be balanced around being a glass cannon that you shut down after forcing out recall. You can’t do that 9 times out of 10 anymore in stadium.

so its a skill issue then? I can accept that but people must learn that this will happen.
Every single hero deserves to be in stadium or we get rid of stadium.
some have a hard time. accepting they are boosted.
also not unlikely with staidum as so many heroes are missing that will soon or later ruin your day.
if we removed half the cast in normal ow I would also be GM tomorrow
add 5 more heroes I hate and I drop down again suprise.

Ahhh yes because breaking the character that the game is balanced around is a recipe for success hey?
It’s not a skill issue to have to vs a character whose relative strengths are 3x as strong as yours. The other DPS not have a get out of jail free button that completely resets but ever dumb gameplay decision nor do they have near infinite mobility to fall back on.
So please, feel free to post 50 clips of you owning tracers in stadium, surely it’s not a skill diff for you either?

As usual, you don’t know what you’re talking about. Building survivability is throwing in Stadium

Well Can easily do that. Not playing that much stadium but shouldn’t be hard to own a few tracers.
If I couldn’t it would be a skill issue and I would be boosted. 
Why are you even commenting then if you don’t play stadium smooth brain?

never said I don’t play it at all.
its not my main mode.
Still waiting for my 50 tracer kills? or looking for another excuse?
50x stadium is gonne kill me but sure…
like that will take Atleast a week of time.
and it also requires my enemies to play tracer. so probably a month required.
you won’t even remember this thread by then.
Not sure whats in it for me tho.
but if she’s so broken, how about you make 50 clips of you dominating the entire lobby as tracer? shouldn’t be hard given she is so broken by your words.
I expect them by the end of the weekend.
inb4 random excuse like you don’t play tracer or something.

If people can just hit her, Tracer will have a miserable time in Stadium.
Being that squishy in a mod where everyone can just Stack Burst-damage is pain.
So honestly, thats a skill issue.

Tracer took a little to get used to, but she’s honestly mid in Stadium. There are much more dangerous dps than her. As long as you aren’t building a glass cannon character and have taken a survivability item or two, she’s not much of a problem.

i said this about Pharah too, then Tracer came along and I barely see Pharah because they made Tracer even somehow worse so they pick her now. Not only should the person be fired but banned from any job in game dev.

Tracer is the #1 reason I don’t want to play this mode any more. I had an enemy tracer in all 3 games I played today. It is exhausting. The game becomes an aim trainer with her around. Even winning feels like losing.
It is hopeless to kill her without teamwork, and teamwork is something that does not come easy in Stadium.
Not to mention how advantageous she is on every single map. Control, payload race, clash, push. All of these favors high mobility and getting to the objective(s) and stalling which she excels at.
I have no issue with her in the core game. I think she is overtuned in Stadium and gets more value out of every item than other characters.
She’s just so unfun to play against.

People complaining about tracer in stadium being some unkillable raid boss is so funny because survivability is the most worthless thing to build. It’s not that they have a billion hp they’re just outplaying you with blinks.

This lmfao
You already know the Tracers being complained about had no survivability items. Otherwise they wouldn’t have been able to kill the complainer to begin with.
But Torb being added will also be oppressive to any other dive hero, all of which have less survivability, mobility, and escape than Stadium Tracer.
There’s no such thing as less survivability in Stadium. There’s a whole section of pretty effective items dedicated to it. Not to mention a whole host of support abilities that hand out overhealth like candy. I think divers might be able to handle a few turrets.
But I like the max weapon power Zenyatta
Survival is just as equally important as the other items in Stadium. Maxing out AP or WP won’t matter if you don’t kill your target.
And living is just half the battle. If I can outlive your damage, and you’re a glass cannon build… I can kill you much easier in later rounds because you have no survival perks
