Simple to understand for sure. Playing it is a different story.
He is literally the face of a lot of compositions. If you mess up, you throw the entire game away. Reinhardt’s difficulty doesn’t lie in his kit, but in his role.
Orisa is wrong. Shes definitely not 1 star.
Reinhardt is definitely not 3 stars.
Winston I agree with.
Bastion is not 3 stars.
Echo is not 3 stars.
Hanzo is 3 stars, not 2.
Junkrat is 2 stars, not 1.
Mei could honestly be 2 or 3, either one is fine.
Pharah is one star, not 2.
Reaper is definitely one star, not 2.
Soldier I agree with.
Tracer I agree with.
Ana is 3 stars, not 2.
Lucio is definitely not 3 stars.
Moira I agree with. Kind of crazy she even is 2 stars.
To a new player or beginner (which is what the stars are for) it’s mainly about how easy it is to pick up that character and play them. Rein is arguably one of the more simpler tanks in that regard, and I don’t personally think qualifies for a 3 star ranking. Hammond is a very technical tank that requires a good understand of not only ALL of hammond’s own abilities but also the rest of the game to avoid being constantly shut down, which is deserving of three star.
In any competitive nature you could almost consider/high field of play you could almost consider any hero three star if that’s how you judge them.
She can hardly mess up with the amount of stuff she has. It’s a very easy hero to play, you just need good positioning.
Check reply above this one.
She is one of the most complex DPS heroes in the game, right next to Tracer and Doomfist. You literally need to learn every hero to do anything with her ultimate.
Log is a meme for a reason.
Looking at a wall and relying on trajectory does not require any mechanical skill.
She is the worst hero in the game without Mercy. To play her effectively without a Mercy arguably puts her at three.
In his current state, I don’t think so. Blossom really isn’t that good anymore.
Her skill floor is oversold.
Why don’t you try scaling walls, switching between songs 24/7 to get both procs and leading shots all at once?
This isn’t necessarily based on high ranked play, but how the playerbase has adapted to playing and playing against these heroes.
You can say that about any hero. It’s true for Reinhardt to a greater degree, but you won’t win a 5v6 fight most of the time anyway.
Tank is going to be the hardest role for a new player to understand, but Reinhardt is going to be the easiest tank for one to understand and play. Reinhardt’s most difficult aspects are general tank fundamentals that can be applied to the other tanks as well. For new players, he’s one star. The process of learning the hero might land him two. Three, no way. He’s just not complex enough or mechanically demanding enough.
Isn’t judging trajectory and bounces more complicated than just looking at someone and clicking? I consider Sigma’s primary to be more complicated than Zarya’s beam for that exact reason. Junkrat is good at lower ranks but quickly falls off, and requires knowledge of how the map plays, how his grenades work, actually getting direct hits with the grenades is hard enough, how to work his mines, and even other strategies like the trap/mine combo. He’s definitely not 3 star but I wouldn’t argue him for 1 star either.
So what you did was decide to use skill floor for some characters and then use skill ceiling for others.
Lucio is a fairly straight forward character to pick up. That’s what makes him a 2 star hero. He also has an incredibly high skill ceiling.
Echo is similar in that her kit is very straight forward to use.
Ana’s kit whether you want to admit it or not has complexity as she’s easily flanked if her cooldowns are wasted. Both her CDs can be used offensively, or to protect herself.
Idk, there’s so much wrong with this
Genji and Doomfist are not 3 stars in any way
Mei is a 3 star difficulty hero, not 2
Orisa is harder than Rein, so Rein should be 1 star while she should be 2 stars
Walk up, freeze, free headshot… Getting challenged? Uh oh, better make myself invulnerable AND heal back up. Didn’t work? Ehh, just throw a giant wall in their way, it’s whatever…
