So you’re telling me that torb gets a hard nerf when he’s only JUST became viable, he literally has a 2% pickrate in GM… now lets compare that to some OTHER heroes.
genji 3%
widow 4.7%
hanzo 5.4% pickrate
And on top of that, 15 more heroes are picked more than him.
and that’s GM, in ALL RANKS HE HAS 1%
He isn’t even that strong, his turret is completely melted and has long cooldown and deals a measly 56dps (THAT’S LIKE 1 SYM TURRET), his primary is super inaccurate, his shotgun is pretty decent (now useless ._.) his ult is very niche and meh, overload is meh.
and the fact that it’s a HARD nerf makes it even worse, like… that’s harsh
god it’s so depressing to see torb finally do decent after like 3 years then gets thrown in the trash can like a couple of months later. Yet OTHER HEROES who have been meta for like two years+ (not naming any heroes) aren’t touched at ALL.
The funny thing is, I haven’t seen a nerf torb, like, almost ever on these forums except for maybe bronze players.
please revert the nerf it is so unnecessary.

I too am confused as to why he got nerfed.

They should compensate by increasing his primary fire damage by 5.

They just shouldn’t nerf him in general,
He was perfect where he was and now he’s pretty much ruined.

Is so sad how this patch was the big game change before atage 3…
And is a lot more sad how they nerf torb and dont change anything on heros like hanzo and widowmaker.

How? His pickrate decreases as you go lower in the ranks (except bronze… but lets not balance around bronzes thanks 
)

They completely ignore the Hanzo problem. Torb becomes viable? Nerf him!!

Actually Jeff thinks Torb is OP.

it’s probably because he’s a tank main, exactly who torb would counter.

His right clicks do less damage now. The max damage is 105 instead of 125.

Widowmaker is more of an issue than Hanzo IMO.

Jeff said he needs to be toned down lol.

Really wasn’t expecting this. Never really saw torb as a problem in my games so I’m surprised he got nerfed.

Torb of all characters did not need a nerf. His only burst potential comes through when he uses overload. In which he lights up like the sun and becomes the center of most enemy fire. His primary was already better in most situations. Plz revert this.

Maybe they think m2 is powerful when he overloads
But…Hanzo has Storm arrow guys. Why fear overload?

Out of all characters in this game, the one that would be last in nerfs would be Torblerone.
They want to keep the “torb is a throw pick” meme going huh.
